Chapter 915 - 203: Investing Is Okay

Mathew took Danny to meet some other guests, and Hazel went to the balcony to get some fresh air.

The sound of footsteps came up behind, and Hazel couldn't help but smile softly. "Joshua, you are the center of the c.o.c.ktail party, why are you here?"

Joshua was somewhat amazed. Hazel did not look back but could actually tell it was him just by his footsteps. 

He stood by her side and said calmly, "I miss you."

Hazel's cheeks were red, and she whispered, "We just saw each other..."

Joshua opened his mouth sorrowfully. "We can see each other, but we have to pretend not to know each other."

Hazel chuckled. "That's because of the promise. You are so attractive, if I stand by your side, it is almost like standing in the spotlight."

Joshua couldn't really deny anything, and many people know him at the c.o.c.ktail party. If he and Hazel appeared too close, there would be some people who would have the wrong impression.

"Don't say that. What happened with Mathew just now?" he asked faintly.

Hazel simply told him about it. She looked at Joshua, "What do you think? Should I invest?"

"Investing is okay," Joshua said. "You only need to be responsible for the cost of the movie. It will be released next month, so you can save the waiting time and see the benefits in one month. However, the key to the problem lies in the quality of the film and whether it is in line with the market."

Hazel nodded blankly. "I understand. If I can arrange it, would you see if it would work? I could take an off the children from the orphanage to see the movie and find out if they like it. If they like it, I will invest it."

"This is a way, but the other side should agree, too." Joshua sighed.

"I will try my best to communicate," Hazel said.

"If you leave it for Mathew to ask, there should be no problem." Joshua proposed.

Hazel's face was hesitant, and she seemed to be thinking.

"What's wrong?" he said with some surprise. "Mathew is good. He represents the film industry, and it gathers attention. Moreover, I think he is quite responsible."

"But he is too responsible," Hazel said and spat out his tongue, "Danny is now treating me like a savior, and I have set myself up! He is too respectful to me, and now he is trying to help me make money. I really can't get used to it."

"Hazel, you are such a good partner, they couldn't ask for any better." Joshua chuckled.

"Besides, you did save him at the lowest point in his life. He is grateful, and it is normal. Wait a while, and he can be able to get himself back on his feet."

"Yeah." Hazel nodded.

Hazel decided to confirm the quality of the film before making any commitments. Danny Hall has initially been unwilling to do it, but when he heard that it would be orphans who would be watching the movie, he finally changed his mind.

Hazel and the children went to watch the movie, the quality of the film was outstanding, and it was suitable for all ages. It was possible that it would profit at the box office, so she invested five million.

Hazel got a headache just thinking that she had spent so much money and not guaranteed a return on her investment. However, there was one thing that made her happy, Joshua-Hazel Pictures was officially open.

***

On an opening day, Hazel rushed to Joshua-Hazel Pictures early in the morning. She originally planned to have a small ribbon-cutting ceremony, it was really only for self-amus.e.m.e.nt and to bless the company with good luck.

When Hazel arrived at the company, she toured the entire floor again. Although she had been there before, it was different now that the company had opened. It was a simple office, but everything was complete.

After looking around, Hazel walked into her office filled with excitement. Almost as soon as she sat down, Mathew walked in and took the initiative to say, "Miss Crowe, don't worry, the ribbon-cutting ceremony is ready..."

"I know, I believe that you can handle it," Hazel said with emotion. "I just came to see."

She had some unreal feeling about the entire venture, but looking at the company, she was as excited as a child in a candy store.

Suddenly, there was a noise coming from outside the door.

"What happened?" Hazel lifted her eyebrows strangely.

"I will go and check," Mathew said blankly, but just as he opened the door, he saw Susan coming in with an arrogant look.

Hazel looked at her unexpectedly, and Susan was surprised. "How come you are here?"

Not waiting for Hazel to answer, Susan walked to the sofa and sat down.

She sneered, "I understand, I heard that you are his assistant now, are you working for Joshua? How? You feel bad about taking his money without doing anything?"

"I am not working for Joshua!" Hazel said coldly.

"Oh, do you want to say that you are here because this company is yours?"

Susan's eyes were even more scornful. "Hazel, when you leave Joshua,

what can you do?"

Hazel was furious, but Susan's words and hostility made her see that Susan was a woman who was unworthy of attention. Even if Hazel argued with her, it would be a waste of time.

It seemed that Susan did not know Hazel's position within Joshua-Hazel Pictures, which was good. It meant that Susan would think things through and not create too much trouble. 

Hazel's silence made Susan become prouder, and she thought that she had guessed right.

Mathew said with some annoyance, "Miss Crowe, she is..."

"Mathew," Hazel shook her head indifferently. "You don't have to say so much too irrelevant, people."

Mathew was still very angry with Susan, but he snorted with disappointment and finally tolerated it.

"Mathew," Susan raised her chin and showed a proud look. "I think Joshua-Hazel Pictures should be Denmark's investment, my cousin Joshua entrusted you to manage it?"

Hazel shook her head slightly at Mathew, and Mathew said coldly, "There is nothing to tell you about our company!"

"Whether you tell me or not, anyway, I was not planning to come to talk to you," Susan said coldly. "If I have something to say, I will find you..."

Mathew interrupted her words with disappointment. "Miss Edwards, if you have anything to say, please register at the front desk. I will ask the front desk to reply to you, with a meeting time. Okay, I am swamped. Please leave!"

Seeing that Mathew was so arrogant, Susan suddenly became angry. "Mathew, you don't act like this! Do you think you got the investment of Joshua so you can make the film and run a company? I will tell you, that is what Joshua did for me!"
