Today, Finn was wearing a white suit, looking extremely gentle and refined. Like in the past, he looked like a handsome young gentleman.
He came in holding a pot of orchids,
The assistant behind him was carrying some fruits.
Finn said, “I heard that your company is opening today, so I came here to see you. I bought this orchid at the market myself. I hope your business will flourish.”
He didn’t seem to expect Juliette to take the flowers.
Therefore, after he finished speaking, he put the flower on the table by the window.
“There’s no poison in this flower, is there?” Daphne sneered.
Everyone present knew about the wedding the day before yesterday.
All eyes were on Juliette and Finn.
Everyone assumed that Finn would definitely retaliate.
Finn just smiled faintly. “Why would there be poison? The whole world knows that I have wronged Juliette, so I am merely making amends for my mistakes.”
Daphne rolled her eyes and did not believe that Finn could be so kind.
Juliette realized that Finn was a formidable opponent.
He had lost face at the wedding and become a national laughingstock.
Just two days later, he could visit her with fruit and flowers to celebrate the opening of her company.
It was evident that he was quite patient and tolerant.
She wouldn’t believe he was a good person just because Finn showed her some kindness.
In her past life, Finn had consumed the Vaughn family to make the Montgomery family the second richest family in town. Such ability was not possessed by ordinary people.
She knew that he must be playing a bigger game.
It seemed that she still had a long way to go if she wanted to put Finn to death and avenge herself.
“I see Mr. Todd Leonard and Ms. Cindy Banks are here too. Juliette, they’re the best director and screenwriter at Vaughn Pictures. If they could help you with your first movie, it would be a huge success.” Finn changed the subject.
Juliette smiled and thought, ‘Finn is surely quick to set a trap for me.
‘Yes, Todd is a great director and his works are well–received and have a high box office.
‘Cindy is also a well–known screenwriter in the industry.

‘However, they both belonged to Vaughn Pictures.
Everyone thinks that Juliette should be honored and hire them since they were big shots.
Now Finn was trying to impose a moral obligation on her to force her to choose them.
If she did, Juliette’s movie would be completely controlled by the Vaughn family. Everyone knew that once the movie started shooting, the director had the final say.
At first, Juliette was still thinking about how to refuse these two big names without offending them.
Now, Finn gave her the best opportunity.
Juliette said, “Mr. Montgomery is right. The abilities of Mr. Leonard and Ms. Banks are obvious to all. My first movie will definitely achieve excellent results with their strong support.”
After saying this, Juliette paused on purpose and glanced at everyone lightly.
Todd and Cindy both expected this outcome. They knew that with their abilities, Juliette would definitely hire them.
In fact, they didn’t care about this small–budget film at all.
If it wasn’t for Mason asking them to come, they wouldn’t be there.
Unexpectedly, Juliette changed her tune. “But I’m sorry. I can’t hire you.”
Todd and Cindy’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Juliette explained, “The Vaughn family can’t wait to destroy me. At the same time, because I called off my engagement, the Montgomery family has become a national laughingstock. Even if Mr. Montgomery is kind to me today, it cannot cover up the above these facts.
“How dare I hire a director and screenwriter from Vaughn Pictures? If you swear today that you will make a great effort, I can believe your oath. However, I cannot trust the Vaughn family.
“When I called off the engagement, the Vaughn family did not hesitate to slander my reputation and force me to marry a scumbag who betrayed me. Yesterday, Mrs. Vaughn committed suicide and put me in a tough position.
“After you start working on my first movie, maybe Mr. Vaughn and Mrs. Vaughn will threaten you with death to ruin my film.
“Based on the above, Mr. Leonard, Ms. Banks, I am sorry.”
Juliette’s words were beautifully spoken.
She meant that she rejected them not because of who they were, but because of the Montgomery and Vaughn families.
Not only did this avoid offending the two big shots, it also started the conflict between these two big shots and the Vaughn family and the Montgomery family.
While everyone was still in disbelief, Juliette quickly added, “Based on our chat just now, I think Director Bill Burgess and Ms. Kay Obrien are more suitable for our film.”
Bill was dozing off, and Kay was scrolling on her phone at the moment.
Suddenly hearing their names, they looked up abruptly, both with bewildered faces.

They didn’t expect that they would be hired, though they were the least famous in the
group.

They thought they were talented but no one appreciated them. They were somewhat disappointed in the world and wanted to give up.
So, they came here today to join in the fun and bet on the slight chance that someone might spot their talent.
Of course, they didn’t hold much hope.
Juliette was the eldest daughter of the Vaughn family and had been pampered since she was a child. They didn’t think she would have any good taste.
However, the result shocked them.
Bill and Kay looked at each other, wondering if they were dreaming.
At this time, Juliette asked, “Are you not willing?”
Bill and Kay almost rolled off their chairs. They stood up quickly.
“No, no, we just… We’re just too surprised, or rather, flattered. We will definitely work hard.” As Bill spoke, he pulled Kay and asked her to express her position immediately.
A fierce glint flashed across Finn’s downcast eyes, the urge to kill welling up inside him again.
When he looked up, he saw Juliette bathed in white light, her outfit today presented the aura of a professional woman.
She looked like a noble cat.
This was a side of Juliette he had never seen before.
At this moment, Finn thought to himself that before he killed Juliette, he would make her kneel before him and submit to
him.
The mere thought of it filled Finn with strength.
Then he remembered the purpose of his visit.
“Are you sure about that, Juliette? This choice feels a bit hasty. I know this might offend Mr. Burgess and Ms. Obrien, but honestly, they don’t have any notable work yet. And since this is your first film, I’m worried they might ruin it,” Finn said gently.
He looked like he was truly concerned about Juliette.
Juliette said casually, “Well, they’ll have a representative work after we finish this film.”
