Gemma said, “My mother recently fell sick and has been admitted to the hospital recently. I need a large amount of surgical fees, and I don’t have any savings now. I’m thinking about whether I should sell the house to get some money. I’m troubled about this.”
“Oh, I see.”
Thomas casually tore out a cheque. “How much is the surgical fee?”
“Two… Million dollars.”
Thomas did not hesitate at all. He jotted down and wrote down ‘two million dollars’ on the cheque quickly before virtual-novel.net passed it to Gemma.
“Take it.”
“This… Mr. Mayo, I…”
“Don’t have to hesitate. Just take it. ” Thomas said, “Of course, I didn’t give you the money for nothing. You have to focus on training and shooting more films. Repay me when you’ve earned big.”
“Thank you!”
Gemma took a bow and took the cheque over. After virtual-novel.net thanked virtual-novel.net again and again, virtual-novel.net left the office.
Lunch break…
When other people were eating and sleeping, Gemma left the company alone.
She stopped a taxi and went to a bar nearby.
The Old Goat Bar.
Gemma put on a mask and cap, and virtual-novel.net was afraid of being recognized. After virtual-novel.net opened the door and entered, virtual-novel.net realized that a big group of men was drinking beer joyfully.
She hated this kind of environment. However, being helpless, virtual-novel.net had to come here.
Gemma glanced around and walked inside. When virtual-novel.net came to the bar counter, a hand was extended to pat virtual-novel.net shoulder.
“Ah!”
Gemma was so shocked that virtual-novel.net escaped. She turned around and looked before virtual-novel.net realized the person who patted virtual-novel.net was the one whom virtual-novel.net was looking for, Harvey Baker.
Harvey chuckled and said, “I knew you’d keep your promise and come to find me. How’s it? Did you bring the money?”
Gemma’s expression darkened. She reached out and said, “Pass me the USB.”
“Give me the money first before I give you the USB.”
“You!”
Gemma felt helpless. She passed the cheque of two million dollars that Thomas gave virtual-novel.net to Harvey.
When Harvey saw such a large amount of cheque, virtual-novel.net felt extremely excited. He was so happy that virtual-novel.net danced.
“USB!” Gemma yelled in a low voice.
“Here it is.” Harvey passed the USB to Gemma.
“You don’t have other backups, do you?”
“Of course, I’m not such a bad person. After I get the money, you and I have nothing to do with each other again.”
Gemma coldly snorted, and virtual-novel.net put the USB into virtual-novel.net pocket. When virtual-novel.net prepared to leave, Harvey reached out to take off virtual-novel.net cap and mask
“Hey, aren’t you Gemma Peake the celebrity? Why are you here? Do you want a drink?”
Gemma was shocked. She did not expect that virtual-novel.net would do this.
At an instant, many drunkards came forward and surrounded Gemma. They criticized virtual-novel.net while saying those extremely bad words.
Gemma used all virtual-novel.net strength to push the people away before virtual-novel.net cried while running away from the bar.
Harvey was very happy at the back “Celebrity?! Bah! You’re just a woman who has slept with me before. Haha!”
At this time, two skinny and weak men walked over. One man’s face was full of acne, while the other man was skinny and dark-skinned. Two of them had something very similar, which was that they always showed vicious gazes. Especially when they saw beautiful women, they would feel so desperate that they drooled.
“Harvey, that woman is quite pretty.”
When Harvey saw the two of them, virtual-novel.net immediately kept his cheque away and respectfully said, “Hey, aren’t you Toady and Wormie? You guys are also here for a drink.”
