Chapter 24 - How's Alex's Mood Today?

After Liam and Alexander finalized the new company's charter, they contacted Isabella to confirm the establishment of the company.

"Are you saying that your friend contributes 40% of the money but doesn't handle the company? Only provides funding and nothing else?" Isabella looked at Liam, finding it unbelievable. Was there really such a partner? A person who is naive but wealthy?

"That's right, he's abroad and only needs year-end dividends." Liam nodded. "Don't worry, I'm also an investor. I won't make decisions that harm the company. If you're still concerned, I can reject my friend, and I'll directly invest in these seventy percent."

Isabella thought for a moment, "Alright, but we need to draft a contract."

"Sure," Liam agreed.

"Mr. Lia..."

Liam interrupted Isabella, smiling, "We're partners now, don't be so formal. I remember we're the same age, just call me by my name."

Isabella laughed, "Okay, Liam."

The two continued to discuss the company's address and employees. Liam confidently stated that he would take care of it, and Isabella was happy to have a hands-off approach.

Isabella said, "Liam, you know I'm a director, and I may not be at the company often. The day-to-day management will rely on you."

"Sure, I have plenty of free time anyway. Let's start a company and save me from my dad nagging about I'm not being serious." Liam said.

"Didn't you invest in many projects before? Didn't you recently invest in Ethan's software company?" Isabella inquired.

"That was Ethan's thing, he's my childhood friend, and I have to support him. I don't understand software. I think an entertainment company suits me better." Liam explained.

Isabella smiled, "Well then, Mr. Liam, would you like to take a look at my project?"

Isabella handed Liam the script and proposal for the new drama.

Liam already knew about this from Alexander. He pretended to flip through it and nodded, "Alright, when the company is registered, consider this our first project. I'll handle the investment. As for the actors and the production team, you decide, after all, you're the professional."

"I plan to use new talents for the actors, and I've already contacted my professor from the film academy to help." Isabella said.

"That's fine. If you have any issues, contact me, and I'll take care of it." Liam assured.

Isabella noticed that the conversation flowed smoothly, and with the company matters settled, she was happy. She said, "Liam, let me treat you to a meal, consider it a celebration."

"Okay... cough... I can't, I have plans." Liam said, "Next time, definitely next time."

Isabella couldn't do anything about it, "Alright, next time then."

After Isabella left, Liam took off the earphones hidden in his ears and picked up his phone from the table. "I mean, Mr. Alexander, is it necessary? It's just a meal, you don't even allow this?"

"I'll have the office building in the center open for your new company." Alexander's cold voice came through the phone.

"Tsk tsk, Ethan begged you for so long, and you didn't agree. Today, you actually agreed to me. He'll probably be furious when he finds out." Liam teased.

Alexander replied, "Hurry up and get to work."

Liam said, "Alright, alright, from now on, I'll be a workhorse for both of you."

When Isabella returned to the courtyard, the sky hadn't darkened yet. Holding a cake box, she quietly entered the house, almost colliding with a maid who was about to go out.

"Madam Isabella?" The maid looked puzzled at Isabella's sneaky behavior.

Isabella raised a finger to her lips, signaling her to be quiet, then peeked inside the house, asking, "Where's Alex?"

"Mr. Alexander is in the study," the maid replied.

"How's Alex's mood today? Did he eat well? Is he upset?" Isabella asked.

The maid thought for a moment, "No, Mr. Alexander is the same as usual today."

Isabella sighed in relief, waved her hand for the maid to step back, and holding the cake box, she walked to the study door and pushed it open.

In the study, Alexander heard the noise and looked up. When he saw it was Isabella, he pursed his lips and lowered his head, ignoring Isabella.

Isabella:? ? ?

Did you promise not to be angry?
