EX-husband Groveling to Me

Chapter 56 One Arrow Kills Several Birds

Suny was in a good mood today, but she didn't expect to run into Austin when she was leaving, and

she didn't expect him to say such self-absorbed and conceited words.

She had been divorced from Austin for more than seven months now, and after the divorce, her life was

comfortable and cosy. When she happened to think of such a person as Austin, she was more annoyed

at herself for being stupid for the previous three years.

She hadn't thought of going back to him, never had.

"M, help me put a jar of water in."

Being in a bad mood, one could only soothe it with an aromatic bath.

Probably because she ran into Austin in front of the clubhouse, Suny did not sleep very well this night.

She dreamed of many things from the three years she had been married to Austin.

She opened her eyes as soon as the alarm went off.

Not having slept well, Suny was in a very bad mood.

The sky outside was still dark in the morning in J City in winter.

Suny put on her coat, got out of bed and went to wash up.

As she was making breakfast, Rosa's phone call came in.

Suny answered the phone, "Good morning, Rosa."

"Good morning, Miss Holland, I've sent the highlights of today's meeting to your email address."

"Thank you."

There was a meeting at ten o'clock about whether to pursue a Round B investment in a company, and

Suny, as the largest shareholder, naturally should attend.

After having breakfast, around nine o'clock, Suny drove out to Phantom.

The meeting lasted for an hour and a half, and after a comprehensive assessment of all aspects, it was

passed by a unanimous vote to continue the follow-on investment.

Just after the meeting, Suny left the company straight away.

Not long after the car drove out, Suny received an unexpected phone call.

The call was from Elijah, she thought it was a harassing call at first and hung up straight away, if Elijah

hadn't called again, Suny would never have answered it.

"Hello, this is Suny."

"Suny, it's me, Elijah."

Oh, one of Austin's friends.

Suny had been holding her anger all morning after last night's incident had made her sleep poorly, and

since Elijah had crashed into her, it was only his bad luck: "What can I do for you, Mr. Brooks?"

Elijah frowned, although through the phone, he could still hear that Suny's words were a bit impulsive:

"I heard that you have already had the film and television rights of 'Flute Wind'."

The red light ahead, Suny stopped the car: "Mr. Brooks' information is better than I thought."

"I heard that you are planning to invest in filming yourself."

"Yes, is there a problem?"

"No, I just think it's easy to lose money in the film market now, haven't you ever thought of pulling in

some investment to spread the risk?"

Elijah had long been interested in the rights to "Flute Wind" and had already asked someone to

approach the copyright holder, but the copyright holder was determined to ask for 3 million.

However, both sides wouldn't budge an inch. Elijah originally wanted to leave them alone for a few

days, then each side would take a step back and finally take the adaptation rights for 2.5 million.

However, when the rights to The Islander were snatched away by UNIVERSE because of Phantom's

intervention, Elijah had already felt disgusting.

And now he eyed on Flute Wind, but Phantom came to snatch it. When he heard the news yesterday,

he almost spat out his blood.

This good IP was like looking for gold in a haystack, and he had managed to find a dark horse, so he

should be happy that someone shares his vision.

But when he saw the right was way, Elijah really couldn't be happy.

For some reason, he felt that he really couldn't figure out Austin's ex-wife.

Hearing Elijah's words, Suny suddenly smiled, "Do you have some misunderstanding about me, Mr.

Brooks?"

"What kind of misunderstanding?"

Elijah was confused.

The next second, he heard the soft female voice on the phone, "Do I look like someone who is short of

money to you?"

"You're not short of money, you-"

Halfway through his sentence, Elijah got stuck.

He had almost forgotten that Suny had divorced Austin without asking for a penny, and this was

something Austin had told them himself.

"What?"

The green light came on and Suny restarted the car, putting it on speaker and waiting for Elijah to

answer.

"Nothing, just thinking of sharing the pressure for you."

Suny said, "Tens of millions is not much pressure for me, if there is really pressure, it would be the one

who kept their eyes on me have pressure."

He sneered, "Alright, I'm not so short of that little money, since you are confident to do it well, then I

won't bother you."

Suny said indifferently, "Okay."

At once, Elijah felt that he had punched his fist on cotton, and his strength went nowhere.

After hanging up the phone, Elijah was so angry that he almost dropped the phone.

However, Suny was in a much better mood, after all, Elijah had been sarcastic with her a lot before.

She picked up her Bluetooth to call Alicia about this matter.

"Tsk, you're really killing several birds with one stone!"

Disgusting both Wendy and Elijah was really well done.

Suny gave a smile: "I hadn't had these thoughts before, Elijah did remind me, since he is so optimistic,

then we will keep 'Flute Wind'."

"Ah, indeed, money really is all-powerful!"

Suny hummed, "Alright, I'll hang up now."

Elijah's phone call had given Suny a channel to vent her frustration, and when she returned to the villa,

she was already in a much better mood.

However, Elijah was not in a good mood, and the person who made him feel bad was Suny.

After signing a few documents, Elijah drove to KLOC and spoke to Austin, "Austin, I found out that your Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

ex-wife is really something, I wanted to help her take some risks with good intentions, but she refused

me! What an insensitive person!"

Austin snorted, "You, good intentions?"

Elijah touched his nose sheepishly: "It is about business, but it's true that having more people is less

risky."

Austin swept him a cold glance, "She doesn’t want to give you a share of the pie."

"Am I lack of that money?"

"If not, why are you here looking for me?"

"......"

Elijah felt that his friend and Suny were really a perfect match, both of them said words harsh.

He had to change the subject, "Where did you go last night? Did you get lost in a gentle place halfway?

Antonio and I tried calling you all night but there was no answer."

Thinking of what happened last night, Austin was annoyed. He tugged his tie and looked askance at

Elijah: "It's really a shame that you didn't become a screenwriter."

"To be honest, I've had the idea."

"......"
