"He withdrew his investment? But filming will start next week?"
The man had a worried look on his face as he rubbed his temples a few times. His eyes were glued to his phone, ever since he received the call from Mr. Bertram's assistant.
David Alesso was a renowned director, and someone withdrawing their investment from his movie shouldn't have affected him, except the filming was scheduled to start next week.
"Why don't you try to contact Mr. Bertram for me? He should at least give a reason for such abrupt action," David told his assistant, reaching for his phone. "I'm going to talk to Paula first."
As his assistant walked away, a woman entered, her heels clinking against the tiled floor.
"Miss Veronica, what brings you here?" David placed his phone down, unable to make a call due to his unexpected visitor.
