The Cherished Wife

Chapter 199

Charles held the cup by its handle, his slender fingers täpping lightly on its surface. “Say what you need to say,” he urged.

Xavier felt a bit awkward but had no choice but to continue, “Winter has been working in the entertainment industry, which is filled with all sorts of people. This recent incident has blown up, and Winter is the biggest victim. She… She’s being attacked online.”

“And how does that concem me? Get to the point, Charles said, setting down his cup and rubbing his temples. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Xavier could tell that Charles was growing impatient. “I know you own a film company, Uncle. I was hoping you could help Winter. She’s being targeted right now, and her career might be over.”

Charles raised an eyebrow. “So, you want me to help? You should’ve said so earlier.” He stood up and pressed the intercom button. “Ronald, come in.”

Ronald quickly responded to the summon, knocking and entering the room. “Mr. Hoffman, you needed something?” he asked, glancing at Xavier and giving a slight nod.

Xavier nodded back with a polite smile,

Charles motioned with his hand. “I remember owning a film company, right?”

Ronald was momentarily taken aback but quickly recovered. “Yes, Mr. Hoffman. You left it under my management. What would you like to do with it?”

“Xavier, tell Ronald what you need. He’s my assistant and manages that company. He’ll know what to do better than I would,” Charles said, tapping his fingers on the desk. “I have other work to attend

to. Ronald will handle everything for you.”

Xavier felt a wave of relief upon realizing that Charles was agreeing to help. He glanced at Ronald, surprised that a mere assistant had the authority to manage an entire company. “Thank you, Uncle.”

“Mm.” Charles waved him off, signaling for Ronald to take him out.

Ronald smiled slightly. “Mr. Harris, please come with me.”

Ronald led Xavier to the meeting room and had Ida bring in a cup of coffee. Xavier’s expression stiffened at the sight of the coffee. Having just had a cup earlier, he was not thrilled about another drink. “Thank you, Mr. Wells,” he said, trying to be polite.

“It’s no trouble. Since Mr. Hoffman gave the instructions, I’ll handle it. Can you explain the specifics of what you need?” Ronald asked.

Xavier repeated his prepared speech, explaining Winter’s situation and his hopes for her recovery. “I need advice on how to handle this.”

Ronald responded confidently, “That’s simple. Our film company is currently preparing a new TV show. I was about to ask Mr. Hoffman about investing in it. The lead roles have been cast, but the second female Head is still open. If Ms. Shaw is interested, she can audition for it. Of course, the audition will only be a

formality. The role be hers.

Ronald then called Ida to bring the film company’s project files and handed the relevant details to Xavier.” Take a look. If Ms. Shaw agrees, we can finalize it.”

Xavier frowned, not familiar with the entertainment industry. He had only heard about it from Winter occasionally, so he could not give Ronald an immediate answer.
