“I can't today, Bill. Just understand that," she said when he kept looking at her without saying anything.

It was hard for him to swallow it, but he knew that she was right. So, he took a few breaths to force himself to calm down.

He got into bed and was about to sleep when Julie said, "Don't sleep yet. Let's talk about Patricia's new company, shall we?’

“What ?"

Bill was still feeling indignant being rejected by Julie, so his brain was slow to react.

“What about Patty's company? Is there any problem?"

Bill had never addressed Patricia by this nickname before, and he couldn't take back his intimate tone now that he had blurted it out.

Julie stared at Bill with her eyes wide open. Obviously, she was expecting an explanation for what he had called Patricia just now.

Of course, Bill had also realized the mistake he had made as soon as those words left his mouth.

With an awkward Laugh, he said, "What do you wanna talk about? Are you worried about how the new company is coming along? Don't worry. I have already discussed it with Patricia. I will also take part in the management of the new company to make sure that nothing goes wrong.”

It was obvious that Bill couldn't think of a way to explain himself and was trying to change the topic instead.

But he knew Julie well; she was not the kind of woman who would bother to pry into such matters

As expected, Julie didn't ask any questions about Bill calling Patricia “Patty”, but instead responded to his words regarding the new company.

“Patricia told me that there was a big problem with Yeez Entertainment, and that she has founded a new entertainment company with which she is going to seize the market of Yeez Entertainment."

Bill nodded. "Yes. Is there any problem with that?"

“As far as I know, what Yeez Entertainment faced was just a small hitch. It has already been solved, and the company might reach an even better position soon. Patricia has only just founded a small film and television company in Sheffield. Does she really have the chance to compete with a big company like Yeez Entertainment?”

Hearing what Julie said, Bill was stunned. As a businessman, he was naturally very sensitive to current business affairs.

Regarding the matter of the lead singer incident, the announcement that Mia had made on her Twitter account had completely turned the situation around.

Bill knew that Patricia had already missed the boat to make the best of the situation, and that her new company would not be able to get a leg up on Yeez Entertainment so easily.

But he didn't expect that Julie, who had always been indifferent to all kinds of news, would know so much.
