Submitting To My Billionaire Ex-Wife by Allison Mild ( Genevieve)

Chapter 74

However, Genevieve’s words sounded like a perfunctory response to Finnley.

Morgan’s gaze turned slightly displeased, and she confronted Genevieve directly by saying, “Ms. Lawrence, is this a case of job discrimination? Who says a recent graduate can’t lead a project?”

Genevieve was stunned for a moment. Her eyes narrowed slightly.

However, her professionalism prevented her from losing her composure. She just looked ahead and smiled slightly, patiently waiting for the elevator to reach its destination.

Morgan’s face flushed with anger at the feeling of being ignored. She said inwardly, ‘She’s just a director and has no right to look down on me like an ordinary employee.”

She gritted her teeth and turned to Finnley while saying, ‘Mr. Zink…

Finnley’s expression darkened slightly. He was not acquainted with Genevieve and only knew her as Anthony’s ex–wife.

‘Maybe it was Anthony who arranged this position for her out of pity,‘ Finnley thought.

He smiled coldly and said disdainfully, “Does Ms. Lawrence look down on me? Not even willing to have a cup of coffee with me? To tell you the truth, if it weren’t for Sullivan’s backing, your position. would have been Morgan’s.”

The elevator arrived in time.

Genevieve, wearing high heels, exited the elevator and turned to look at the two inside.

Her smile carried a profound implication, and her tone remained calm as she said, “Then I should. thank Mr. Shelton. Mr. Zink, there’s no need to trouble yourself. If Ms. Scott is capable, she can take over this position anytime.”

With that, she gave them both a perfunctory smile and turned away.

The internal shareholders of Eagle Entertainment all had a wide variety of complex interests.

However, only Samantha and Sullivan were the major shareholders who could shake Eagle Entertainment’s decision–making.

Finnley’s expression turned dark with anger, and he taunted, “Sullivan has indeed found himself a good helper!”

Morgan stepped forward, linking her arm with Finnley’s, and coquettishly said, “Mr. Zink, you promised me that position. What should I do now?”

Finnley snorted maliciously, hugged her slender waist, and then pulled her out, saying, “Come on, let’s see who she’s having lunch with. I don’t believe we can’t find her weakness!”

Morgan followed excitedly.

Genevieve asked the driver to take her to a nearby shopping mall and bought gifts for Samantha and Hailey in advance. She then arranged for someone to make a reservation at the restaurant.

Before long, Samantha and Hailey arrived.

They had come from the mall and also brought gifts for Genevieve.

Hailey appeared to be as ageless as Samantha. They had always maintained a good relationship.

Hailey used to be an actress. She retired from the industry after marrying Sullivan.

She scrutinized Genevieve, nodded in satisfaction, and said, “Gen, you’ve been doing well lately.”

Genevieve smiled and handed over the gifts as she said, “Uncle Sullivan went out to play golf, Aunt Hailey. He’s slacking off, so don’t let him off the hook!”

Samantha gave Genevieve a stern look and said, “Do you have to betray your Uncle Sullivan like that?”

Hailey couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh. “I know. It’s torture for him to go shopping with me. His taste isn’t that great either, and I’m not even willing to take him!” she said.

Samantha and Hailey sat together. Both were satisfied with their morning shopping.

Samantha handed over her phone and said, “I bought you some clothes and jewelry. They’ve already been delivered to your condominium.“

Genevieve glanced at it and remarked jokingly, “My mom’s taste has always been impeccable!”

Samantha joyfully laughed as she replied, “Of course.”

Hailey couldn’t help but laugh. She said. “I always said having a daughter would be great. My son has been abroad for three years and hasn’t come back, so it’s practically like I don’t have a son.”

Samantha defended him by saying, “He’s studying abroad!”

Their lively conversation echoed throughout the restaurant, but in another corner, two individuals couldn’t help but chuckle.

Finnley sipped his coffee disdainfully and said, “I thought Genevieve had extraordinary skills, but it turns out she relies on currying favor with Sullivan’s wife. Now, even Samantha is involved!”

Morgan couldn’t resist a sarcastic remark, “Samantha! She’s a global celebrity. And didn’t she also come from Eagle Entertainment? Ms. Lawrence is so capable. She even managed to hook up with Samantha!”

Finnley sneered coldly and said, “She’s just an actress, and she’s only famous because people praise her. Otherwise, she’s nothing. Why not let Samantha take the lead if you want a successful project?”

Morgan looked at him with excitement as she said, “Really? Can we get Samantha to come? That will be great!”

Finnley enjoyed the admiration of young girls. He smiled triumphantly and held Morgan’s hand.

Morgan forced a smile on her face, suppressing her inner disgust.

In the afternoon, Samantha and Hailey left together, while Genevieve went back to work at the

company.

However, as soon as she arrived, the office door was pushed open.

Jasper couldn’t stop Morgan from entering, though he tried. He frowned in exasperation and said, “Ms. Lawrence, Morgan mentioned there was an urgent matter and insisted on coming in.”

Morgan stood with a smile on her face. Her attractive demeanor exuded a hint of boldness and youthful vitality,

Compared to Genevieve, however, she was still slightly inferior.

“I’ve known Ms. Lawrence for a long time. There’s no need for introductions. Jasper, you may leave, Morgan stated.

Genevieve looked at Jasper and slightly nodded.

Jasper had just left the office when Morgan, with a cheerful demeanor, placed a document on Genevieve’s desk and said briskly, “Ms. Lawrence, please sign this for the project. Also, I need a favor from you!”

Genevieve raised an eyebrow, glanced at the document, and hesitated for a moment. “The cast for ‘Cloud Over Mountain‘ hasn’t been finalized yet, and you want Samantha to play the second female lead? She has always been the one to choose her scripts,” she said.

“I know, which is why I want you to get in touch with Samantha. She’s part of Eagle Entertainment as well, and she’s likely to extend a certain level of courtesy to her former employer,” Morgan asserted confidently.

Genevieve couldn’t help but burst into laughter and looked up at Morgan. “Ms. Scott, Samantha’s status doesn’t need to be tarnished with personal favors. Don’t overestimate the company,” she said.

Morgan restrained her smile but couldn’t resist pressing further, saying, “Is Ms. Lawrence afraid that my project will skyrocket, surpassing yours, and snatch away your position as a director?”

Genevieve’s eyes carried a hint of amusement, concealing a thick layer of mockery. She replied, “Ms. Scott, you can’t take my position. This is just my starting point.”

Morgan couldn’t grasp her meaning but sensed Genevieve wouldn’t help.

She stared at her impolitely and said, “Genevieve, do you think that driving George away means no one dares to oppose you? Do you know how many people in the company look down on you? What

qualifications do you have to sit in this position? As long as it contributes to the company’s revenue, I believe my proposal is not a problem.”

Genevieve raised her eyebrows and was too lazy to argue with her. She replied, “Fine, go ahead and invite her yourself. I’m not obliged to help you. If you can convince her, do it. If not, give up.”

Morgan gritted her teeth and said, “Fine, just wait!” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

She gathered her disgust, turned on her heels, and walked out of the office with a twist in her waist as she walked away.

Genevieve shook her head as her eyes flickered. She thought, ‘Samantha produces one drama a year, and it’s always a masterpiece. Morgan really dares to daydream about a mere web drama where she’ll only be the second female lead.’

A few days later, Samantha couldn’t resist calling Genevieve, asking, “Why are you looking for me. and harassing my manager?”

“What?” Genevieve was bewildered.
