Chapter 140: Deal
Chapter 140: Deal
After work at noon, Rosiley had lunch with Sachin as they had agreed.
After finishing her meal, Rosiley returned to TEG and was immediately assigned an interview task.
A superstar in the entertainment industry, Alfred, came to Benin City to film an advertisement. She
would only stay in the city for two days with a busy schedule. But she agreed to spare half an hour for
TEG's interview.
As a result, the top managers of the company instructed Rosiley to dig up information about her new
movie by all means.
Alfred was so famous that any little news about her could make headlines, most of which were worth a
lot of money.
Rosiley was a little frustrated when she got the job.
She had once published an affair of Alfred and was hated by her. If Rosiley went to interview the
superstar, she would probably have a hard time.
At three oclock in the afternoon, Rosiley followed the address given by the company and arrived where
Alfred was filming the advertisement.
This was a natural scenic spot in Benin City, surrounded by green hills and clear rivers. Because it was
located in the suburbs area with famous villas nearby, many movies, TV dramas, and advertisements
were shot here.
Alfred was filming a jewelry advertisement. The crew had hired a lot of bodyquards to prevent the
jewelry from being stolen.
When Rosiley arrived, Alfred was in a wedding dress, posing in the cabin on the lake.
She had much valuable jewelry on her, including necklaces, rings, bracelets, earrings, and crowns. She
was shiny, and her good shape was in plain view, attracting gazes from many staff around her.
Rosiley watched her at the shore for a while before going straight to Alfred's assistant for the interview.
“Is TEG understaffed? Why do they send you here? We are very busy with our work and don't want
someone to ruin our mood. If TEG doesn't have any other reporters, please leave. We won't accept this
interview.”
Alfred's assistant Nancy Lee refused Rosiley unceremoniously. It was obvious that she still had a
grudge for what Rosiley had done to them.
Rosiley frowned and said patiently, "Miss Lee, it takes 40 minutes from our company to get here. If you
want another interviewer, that's fine. But does Miss Alfred have that much time? If not, why don't you
cooperate?”
“We're not sure if you will write nonsense news harmful to Alfred again. Anyway, it's not negotiable.
Either you leave or no interview, it's as simple as that.”
Without waiting for Rosiley to reply, Nancy strode away immediately.
Curling her lips, Rosiley seemed to have expected the result. She had no choice but to call some of her
subordinates to come over and take her place.
To her surprise, however, all of her subordinates rejected her in a unified manner.
She asked why and got the same answer from everybody, "I'm sorry, Ms. Rosiley. The general
manager has given us another task, we can't go."
Rosiley finally understood.
It turned out it was Melissa who appointed Rosiley to interview Alfred.
Finally, that woman made a move. Knowing that Rosiley had a grudge against Alfred, she deliberately
sent her here so that Alfred could humiliate her.
Sure enough, it was a good plan!
But Rosiley was not so easy to be messed with.
Rosiley sneered and went to Nancy again. “Please allow me to interview Ms. Alfred!”
The assistant cast an impatient glance at Rosiley and said, “Do you think you can meet her if you like?
Didn't I tell you to leave? We don't want to be interviewed by you. Why aren't you leaving?"
“I'm here to complete my work. Miss Lee, please be lenient.”
Rosiley tried all she could and said patiently.
Nancy was enraged instantly, "Why are you so annoying? If you're not leaving, I'll call your company to
complain about you!” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Her threat wore out Rosiley's patience.
“Miss Lee, I hope you can take responsibility for your decision. Don't harm Alfred for this.”
“What do you mean?"
Rosiley's sudden comments changed Nancy's expression.
“I know that Alfred doesn't want to be interviewed by me. But please tell her that I want to make a deal
with her. As long as she agrees to my interview, I will give her a piece of news which I'm sure she will
be satisfied.”
Rosiley said calmly. She didn't seem to be negotiating at all but as if she was talking about the weather.
Alfred happened to come back to change her clothes. Hearing what Rosiley, she asked evenly, “What
kind of deal? Tell me about it.”
Instead of acting triumphantly, Rosiley nodded and followed Alfred and her assistants into the lounge.
After entering the room, the makeup artist removed Alfred's makeup. The superstar was like a queen,
surrounded by a group of people.
Rosiley couldn't help but pursed her lips.
These celebrities were truly extravagant.
"Tell me, what kind of deal are you going to make? What good will it do for me?"
After taking off the heavy wedding dress, Alfred lit a cigarette for herself and seductively drew a
mouthful before she laid her gaze to Rosiley.
Rosiley smiled faintly, “Accept my interview in exchange for your scandal.”
"What do you mean by that?"
The air in the lounge froze suddenly as Alfred stared at Rosiley with a cold expression.
Assistants beside her also glared at her unfriendly.
Rosiley shook her head with a smile, "You don't have to look at me like that. I didn't take your pictures. I
just knew a reporter has your gossip news in his hand and is asking around for high-priced purchases.
As for the content of the news, it might not ruin your reputation, but it will at least create a lot of trouble
for you. How is it? Is this deal worth it?”
"Can I believe you?"
Alfred pinched her cigarette and asked with a complicated look on her face.
Rosiley shrugged, “My credit in the industry shouldn't be that bad, right?”
Alfred bit her lower lip and said, "Can you tell me who it is?”
"This is his business card.”
Rosiley handed over the business card straightforwardly.
Alfred took a look at it and handed it to Nancy immediately before giving her a hint with her eyes.
The assistant nodded and left the lounge quickly.
“Now, can I interview you?"
“Go ahead!"
Alfred didn't make things difficult for Rosiley this time. Obviously, she also knew that she couldn't push
any further.
The interview started very quickly. Rosiley was very skilled in asking questions. She didn't ask
uncomfortable ones but she could dig out some important information from her interviewee's answers.
in just half an hour, Rosiley had gotten a lot from Alfred.
At the end of the interview, Alfred said abruptly, “If it weren't for you spreading my scandal, I would be
happy to be your friend.”
Rosiley smiled and said, "Since we're in the same industry, it is inevitable that there will be some
disagreements between us. Although I have only been in this walk of life for more than two years, a lot
of people can shake hands and make peace with me, and that's why I am good at what I do.”
Alfred nodded and hesitated for a moment before saying again, "Next time, if there is another scandal
about me, please inform me in advance and don't publish it immediately.”
"Sure, but I need other news for an exchange!” Rosiley said with a smirk.
"You're so shrewd. Why aren't you doing business?"
Alfred rolled her eyes in annoyance and said somewhat irritably, “Hurry and leave. I get annoyed when
I see you.”
"See you next time.”
Grinning, Rosiley waved her hand and turned around to leave.
But before she left, Alfred added, "Actually, you could have run into troubles today. For the sake of
telling me the scandal, I warn you to be careful of your general manager. She planned to accuse you of
stealing jewelry.”
Rosiley paused, but she did not turn around. She only smiled, “Thank you for telling me!”
