Then, Leo turned to look at Luca Luo and said kindly, “We have already allocated the rest and office areas according to all your arrangements at Starbridge, don’t worry, it will only be better, not worse.”

Since he had said that, Yuna and the others could not say anything else, they could only helplessly accept this fact.

So, was the acquisition of Starbridge Frank’s plan? What did he want to do?

Yuna thought about it and felt that according to a businessman’s logic, Linxia would never do such an extra thing.

Hence, Yuna sent Frank a message. “Why did you do that?” She deliberately did not mention the specific matter she was talking about as she wanted to trick him.

Meanwhile, Frank sent her a picture in reply, which was enough to explain Yuna’s question.

She clicked on the picture and saw that the acquisition plan had been reported to the Chairman of Linxia a day after she and Frank had registered their marriage. Yuna was instantly speechless.

Then, she recalled that the act of her signing a contract with Starbridge before telling Frank was no different from walking into a trap in his eyes, right? Yuna wanted to cry,

Frank had just arrived at the office after seeing Yuna’s long string of ellipsis. When he saw the message Yuna sent, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, he seemed to be in a good mood.

Coming Into his hands, she would not be able to fly away no matter how strong her wings were.

Looking at how busy everyone in Starbridge Entertainment was, Yuna felt very melancholy. After she had arrived at Linxia Entertainment, she would run into Frank inevitably and also had to work hard to be Luna’s substitute. Wouldn’t that be very awkward?

However, this was not the only surprise that Frank had prepared for Yuna. A well-known producer in the industry, Simon Hong, had come to Starbridge.

“Director Hong, why are you here?” Yuna knew this producer. She was the one who had asked Director Simon Hong to accept Chloe in one of his previous films. When she heard that Simon was here to look for her, she became puzzled.

“Haha, when I heard that you were going to make a comeback, I came to look for you to take on a role in my film.” Simon smiled very mysteriously.

“Director Hong, you can contact my manager. You don’t have to come personally.”

“Coming in person was to show you my sincerity. Look, this is the movie, ‘Legend of Jay Chen’, and you won’t give this role to your sister this time around, right?” Recalling what his ‘Financial Sponsor’ had said last evening, Simon decided to use all his means to engage Yuna.

Yuna roughly browsed through the plot of the ‘Legend of Jay Chen.’ It was a periodic drama female heroine lead, and then she gave the information to Meng.

After Meng finished reading it, he asked, “Buddy Hong, didn’t you guys decide to let Coco Lin play the female lead? Why do you want to change to Yuna?”

“Well, Linxia said that Coco Lin couldn’t fit in her time. After thinking about it, Yuna would be more suitable.” Simon’s eyes flashed as he explained according to his original scripts.

It was the request of the sponsor of this movie, the Chairman of Linxia Entertainment, to squeeze out the intended female lead, Coco, and pass the role to Yuna.

Thinking of the inside story that he knew, Simon Hong smiled mysteriously again.

After Frank’s secretary, Xiao Chen, conveyed the idea of changing the female lead to him, Simon asked nosily, “Chairman Yo changed his tastes? Wasn’t this used to be the benefits of Luna previously?”

Xiao Chen immediately rolled his eyes at him and whispered, “This is Madam Yo, don’t spout nonsense.”

After reading the information that Simon brought, Meng pulled Yuna to the side. He said in a low voice, “I’ve seen the scripts before; it’s indeed a good film. But Simon wants you to promote it at the press conference this evening. After that, the schedule would be tight. You would probably join the cast next week.”

Seeing that Yuna was still in deep thought, Meng added, “This is a good opportunity. You’ve been free recently. If you don’t have any objections, I’ll go make the deal.”

“Alright.” Yuna trusted Meng very much. She quite liked the female lead’s character design, so she agreed.

After Meng and Simon finished discussing the rough contents of the contract, Simon left with a satisfied expression. Before he left, he even specifically shook Yuna’s hand. “Thank you. It’s been a pleasure working with you.”

Yuna was confused. She did not know that Simon had profited from Frank due to this matter. After politely sending Simon off, she was busy listening to Meng analyze the data.

“During broadcast yesterday, the ‘Happy Alliance’ program team bought a top slot to push it, but the situation this morning was indeed unexpected.”

“And the company registered a new Weibo account for you, and it gained more than a million fans overnight..”
