Chapter: 562
“Oh... sorry!" Theodore slowly kissed her earlobe and then withdrew his hands. He waited for the warmth of the bed to warm his hands before hugging her again. This time he tured Ariana over and kissed her.
Since they had confessed their mutual feelings for each other, Theodore seemed to be unable to have enough of her.
He was like an addict who was lucky enough to have his drug beside him.
After a deep, languorous kiss, Theodore held Ariana in his arms and kissed her again from time to time.
The hot kiss made Ariana's mind go blank, and she could no longer overthink.
“Horace told me that you called me a few days ago but my phone was powered off.
What happened?" Theodore asked gently, looking affectionately at the woman in his arms.
When Theodore mentioned this, Ariana became excited. She told Theodore the whole story of how her movie project was rejected by Norton and how she planned to raise funds by attending the film festival.
Hearing that, Theodore was silent for a moment and it seemed like he was lost in thought. Then suddenly, he got up and asked Ariana to get out of bed and help him get his laptop from the study.
The downside of pretending to be disabled was that he constantly needed someone else to help him with everything
He definitely had to find a way to get rid of the wheelchair as soon as possible and finally stand up.
When Ariana brought the laptop, Theodore immediately logged into the Anderson Group database but couldn't find the said movie project.
He noticed the puzzled look on Ariana's face and moved his laptop to face her. Then he explained, "I can see the submitted records of project plans and everything concerning investments by the Anderson Group. But I just checked, and there is no trace of the project you submitted.”
It was clear that Norton had kept her project plan.
Ariana flew into a rage when she heard what Theodore said and she retorted angrily, "It seems that Norton didn't submit my project at all. He told me that it was rejected by the company. What a bastard! Besides, he seemed to have some connection with Jasper. I remember when I went to see him, he asked me to pass the script to Jasper, but I wouldn't let him. As a result, he scolded me."
Ariana felt a little aggrieved when she mentioned this matter. Then she remembered how helpless she was when she called Theodore but couldn't get to him.
Theodore felt sorry for her and held her in his arms.
“sj Entertainment is just one of the subsidiaries of the Anderson Group. The staff lacks team spirit and under such conditions, abuse of power for personal gain is inevitable. Norton took advantage of his position as the head of the investment department to reject your project. I will handle it. Don't worry." After comforting her for a while, Theodore added, "You can give a copy of your project plan to Horace. I'll keep an eye on it this time, and I don't think anyone will dare to reject your project without a solid reason."
“But we've already shot a short film to attend the film festival..." Ariana looked at him with hesitation in her big eyes and suggested in a low voice, "How about we submit the short film to the film festival as planned? I want to see if I can turn the tables by myself."
Theodore chuckled and didn't say anything. He really liked the fact that she wanted to handle things her way.
