Fatal Kiss Of The Vampire Chapter 191-195
Chapter 191: Project Offer
In the end, Kylie was offered a role in Director Miller’s next film, which annoyed Khloe because she had not been offered a role. When she’d first discovered that Kylie had been offered a role, she went straight to Laurence and whined at him: “I can’t believe that Kylie was offered such a large role. If I am not offered a bigger role than hers, I will be a laughingstock. You are friends with Miller. Can’t you talk him into offering me a big role?”
“I will try,” he replied noncommittally, “but you should know by now that Miller does what he wants to do, and he seldom entertains advice pertaining to his vision. Even as he writes his scripts, he usually has a good idea who would best play each role. So, if he hasn’t offered you a role yet, he will never ever. Furthermore, I think that he has made it clear that he doesn’t like you…”
Khloe felt annoyed, “Please, Daddy, just try. If it doesn’t work out, then I will accept it. If he does decide to offer me a role, my star will shoot all the way to the sky, and everyone knows my name.”
After Khloe left, Laurence called his lawyer, Duncan, to ask how much equity he had and how soon he could cash out. Duncan informed him that, at the present state of affairs, it would be a bad time to sell. He would not even get back what he’d personally invested. Laurence insisted, though. He said, “I am broke right now, and I need money. I trust you. Just do your best.”
Duncan sighed and said, “I will contact other shareholders who are invested already. They may be willing to buy at a slightly higher rate if only to keep random strangers out of their business and increase their control over the company’s direction.”
“Don’t sell them all though,” Laurence said. “I don’t want any single shareholder to have more stocks than I have now. I have no wish to relinquish control of the company.”
“I understand,” Duncan said. Once he got off the phone, he dialed the number for Khloe and let her know that there were shares up for sale. He didn’t say who was selling, which would have been ethical, but he did tell her that the seller was anxious to sell. Right away, Khloe said that she would buy them all – if the price was right.
