Chapter 530 - 529: Sending South Grant Away

Chapter 530: Chapter 529: Sending South Grant Away

"President Warren, there’s a Mr. Lynch downstairs looking for you. He doesn’t have an appointment... Okay, I’ll have someone bring Mr. Lynch up right away."

After hanging up the phone, the receptionist had someone escort Chester Lynch and South Grant up.

When they went up, President Warren of Radiance came out of his office to meet them at the elevator.

"Chester, long time no see." As soon as President Warren saw Chester Lynch, he gave him a hug.

After letting go, he saw the young man standing next to Chester Lynch and found him familiar. It took him a moment to remember who it was.

Isn’t this the male lead from the movie "Us"?

He’s the younger generation heir of The Grant Family, who’s now started his own company, going head-to-head with Grant Group.

Though President Warren was aware of this, he could only pretend not to know. He had just ordered the withdrawal of the movie starring South Grant, and now they met so soon, it was indeed a bit awkward.

President Warren had to pretend not to know at this point.

"I remember you’re just starting university, Chester. What brings you here now?"

President Warren couldn’t imagine that Chester Lynch was so familiar with South Grant. Seeing Chester Lynch come over now must be about this matter, so he acted as if he knew nothing until Chester Lynch spoke.

"Yes, I’ve just started university. This is my classmate and my best friend, let me introduce, her name is South Grant. President Warren should know, she just starred in a movie this year, playing the male lead in ’Us.’ President Warren knows, right?"

Since Chester Lynch mentioned it, President Warren could only smile and say, "Yes, yes, I know."

Seeing President Warren’s difficulty with the matter, after entering President Warren’s office, Chester Lynch took a sip of the coffee the secretary brought and said to South Grant:

"South, I’m not used to President Warren’s coffee. I remember there was a café on our way here. Could you help me get the usual one I drink?"

South Grant knew Chester Lynch was very particular about his lifestyle, used to living in comfort.

After hearing his request, naturally, she didn’t refuse, then said:

"Okay, I’ll go get it for you."

Then South Grant left.

President Warren listened and could tell Chester Lynch was intentionally sending South Grant away.

Once South Grant had left, Chester Lynch looked at President Warren, and got straight to the point:

"President Warren, I’m here today not for anything else, but because of the withdrawal of the movie ’Us.’

Hearing Chester Lynch’s words, President Warren’s face showed a troubled expression.

Chester Lynch continued, "As far as I know, ’Us’ has been a dark horse among recent movies, both at the box office and critically acclaimed. I want to know why President Warren withdrew it?"

Listening to Chester Lynch, President Warren hesitated for a moment, then asked:

"Chester, are you very close to this South Grant?"

"Yes, she is the most important person to me, my... best friend." Chester Lynch replied.

After hearing Chester Lynch’s words, President Warren spoke candidly:

"I know the movie’s doing well at the box office, but someone offered better profits to suppress it. Moreover, ours wasn’t the only company to withdraw it; several others have too, and now it’s completely offline."
