Chapter 247 Giving You a Chance to Negotiate
"We are DuoNyx Entertainment, and we believe that your content is very positive, meaningful, and has great potential for development. We are interested in signing you on. We don't require you to reveal your face, and we propose an annual salary of at least ten million as a start. We hope you will consider this and discuss it with us in detail." DuoNyx Entertainment was a well-known livestreaming platform. It was not only a legitimate company but also under the supervision of authorities. All of their artists were positive role models. Those who were signed on were all good figures with a positive image.
And an annual salary of ten million?! That was money she could never earn in her lifetime through delivery and tips! No one didn't want to earn money. Anna's eyes suddenly brightened, "Really? Are you sure it's not a scam?"
"Miss, you can come to the company to talk tomorrow. I believe that face-to-face talks are more convincing," the other party said sincerely and confidently. Anna was stunned.
From the tone of the other party, it didn't seem like a scam, but how could such a good thing happen to her? 'Ding!' The company's address came through on her phone, and she was even more confused.
She could stay in Crownhaven, earn an annual salary of ten million, or even more, and have her life change forever. She would no longer be a mere delivery person; she could provide Penny with a prosperous life and superior medical conditions. But not returning to Vista Heights? That was the city where she grew up; that place held so many memories for her. Not to mention, Katherine and Giorgio were in Crownhaven...
What should she do? How should she choose? She was destined to have a sleepless night.
The next morning, surprisingly, Giovanni arrived at the hotel at nine o'clock: "Miss Stefanelli, hello, the flights have resumed. Mr. Dalio couldn't come, so he asked me to book tickets for you to return to Vista Heights."
The tickets were booked? Anna was surprised. It seemed that fate wanted her to go back. That was fine. Staying in Crownhaven would mean constantly running into Katherine and Giorgio, and it would be hard to disentangle herself from them. She nodded, took Penny's hand, and left with Giovanni.
When they arrived at the airport, it was nine forty, and the flight was at ten twenty. "Miss Stefanelli, Miss Penny, please sit down; I'll go and buy you some drinks," Giovanni said, standing up and heading for the airport supermarket.
Anna sat down with Penny. As soon as she sat down, her phone rang. "Ding dong ding~~" She took it out, saw the number from last night, frowned slightly, but still answered. After all, the other party was from a big company, and it wouldn't be good to offend them.
"Miss Nana, have you gotten up yet? You can take a taxi over; we will pay for it, or you can tell us your address, and we will send a car to pick you up." As soon as the call was connected, the other party's very polite and courteous tone filled her ears.
Anna was embarrassed and pressed her lips together. "I'm sorry; I don't plan to sign with the company, and I'm not in Crownhaven."
The other party was obviously taken aback. He was completely unprepared for a livestreamer to reject DuoNyx Entertainment's offer, especially an offer with a base salary of ten million. No wonder the big boss had said not to underestimate this signing...
"Miss Nana, joining our company is the dream of all livestreamers. I can also guarantee that once you sign, our company will definitely let you play a useful role and become a top figure. And don't just look at the base salary of ten million, our live streamers with a base salary of a million end up making tens of millions.
Opportunities only come once, so I hope you understand the pros and cons and think carefully before you say no." After saying this, he hung up the phone.
Being too eager would only backfire, only by playing hard to get could he achieve the best results. Anna didn't know the routine, but...
If she stayed in Crownhaven, the future would be promising; it would brim with unlimited possibilities. Going back to Vista Heights would mean she’d lead an ordinary and mundane life. The stark difference in prospects made her hesitate again.
Once, she had missed the college entrance examination because of Giorgio and lost everything. Now, a promising and enjoyable career was in front of her; was she really going to let it slip away?
"Mommy! That looks like Giorgio!"
Just as she was hesitating, Penny's clear voice rang out. Anna came back to her senses, looked over, and sure enough, she saw Giorgio.
He was wearing a black mask, a suit, and leather shoes, walking with a steady and refined pace, his aura was strong and overwhelming. Among the crowd, he stood out, like an emperor surveying his domain. He stood high above the clouds; he was just naturally superior.
Why was he at the airport? Whatever the reason for his visit to the airport, it would be best that they don't meet.
"Shh." Anna quickly covered Penny's mouth, lowered her head to look at her phone, and said to Penny, "We're going to play hide and seek with Giorgio. We mustn't make a sound."
"Okay!" Penny innocently agreed, nodded, sat properly, and didn't make a single sound.
They had no idea how futile their actions were, let alone that Giorgio had spotted them the moment he entered the airport terminal.
He watched the two guilt-ridden figures, his gaze dark and deep, and asked the person next to him, "Have all the flights resumed?"
"Yes, Mr. Vittorio. It was confirmed at eight this morning that the weather has returned to normal, and all flights have gradually begun to take off."
So that was how it was.
She really was leaving for Vista Heights at the first opportunity.
Giorgio was displeased when another figure abruptly walked into his line of sight, sat next to Anna and Penny, and handed them drinks in a polite and courteous manner.
It was Giovanni. He worked for and represented Simon.
Did that mean that even though Simon was married and his wife was pregnant, she was still involved with Simon?
Hmm, she called him brother-in-law at every turn, but when it came to Simon, she didn't care if Simon was someone else's husband?
Giorgio felt a surge of irritation and anger as his face turned ice cold. "You go ahead; I'll take a look myself."
His voice was commanding, like a sudden chill.
The few people who were originally accompanying him for assessment dared not resist, "Yes, Mr. Vittorio."
Then they quickly ran off.
Giorgio stepped forward, heading straight for Anna.
'Tap tap tap...' In the bustling airport, there were countless footsteps, but the tap of his leather shoes seemed to crush Anna's heart with every step.
Had he noticed her? Had he left?
“Oh please, he must not come over... he must not...” She muttered to herself.
'Tap!' A pair of shiny, expensive black shoes hit the ground, shattering her prayers and hopes.
Anna's palm tightened; she had been discovered. Was fate really against her?
To make matters worse, there was no end to her misfortune!
"Mommy, Giorgio found us!" The little girl said, standing up happily and smiling up at Giorgio.
"Giorgio, you're so good! Mommy just said we were playing hide and seek with you and told me not to make a sound, but you found us anyway~~~"
Hide and seek?
What kind of adult would play such a childish game? Obviously, she was intentionally avoiding him.
Giorgio's eyebrows raised; his exceptionally handsome and deep eyes stared at Anna's embarrassed face, and he spoke, "Miss Stefanelli, you must be in a good mood; you’re even in the mood to play hide and seek."
His words were full of mockery.
Anna was embarrassed, being exposed face to face was too painful...
Before she could think of a response, the man's cold voice rang out again, "In that case, you must and see me once. If you do, I'll give you a chance to negotiate what you owe me."
Wha... What?!!
See him?
How childish!
Anna wanted to refuse, but the man didn't give her a chance and had already taken long strides and walked away.
Unfortunately, what she 'owed' him was an unchangeable fact, and she had previously agreed to please him before leaving, so she had no choice but to go see him.
What she never expected was—
