The Billionaire's Genius Wife-Chapter 76 Refused

Although Harvey Olson is famous as a wealthy box office director, his personal life is quite miserable. Harvey's wife left him when he was starting his career.

And strangely, until now, he has never married again, although his separation from his wife has long since passed, 24 years ago.

As far as she knew since knowing Harvey Olson, he has no family. There is only Dina, who takes care of his work and personal affairs.

Scarlett has known Harvey for six years. That time, Harvey discovered her talent and offered her to collaborate on his project. Since then, they have become close — Harvey considers Scarlett his daughter.

"Alright, alright... Stop talking about it!" Harvey's eyes turned sharp as he stared at Scarlett. "We have something important to talk about..." he said and handed Scarlett an envelope.

Scarlett frowned when she saw the brown envelope on the table.

"What's this?" She asks.

"Open and read! You will know…." Harvey casually said.

She opened the envelope and was shocked to see the movie script.

"Uncle, have you forgotten that I don't accept any new movie projects? I will only complete your old movie that we agreed on..." Scarlett handed back the script, unwilling to read it.

"Girl, can you read it first? This script is fascinating. If it's not interesting, I won't ask you to take a look..." His serious-sounding voice made Scarlett melt a little.

However, she's been too busy with her game projects lately. This is what makes her reluctant to accept new projects.

Apart from being involved in the movie industry, Scarlett is busy with her company which focuses on making games.

In the last three years, they have created a few popular games worldwide, having hundreds of millions of users spread worldwide. Making her more serious about this business instead of being involved in filmmaking.

After success in her first and second years, in her third year in the game industry, she started focusing more on making Virtual Reality Games. Games like this are becoming a trend nowadays.

"But, uncle..."

"I hope you can read it first and let me know your decision. Girl, I won't be angry if you refuse this project after you read the script. But, I'm confident that you will like the story, and I also believe you will agree to join this project..." Harvey Olson smiled.

Scarlett was speechless hearing his words.

'This old man said a lot, but in the end, he just wanted me to accept the script. Gosh, uncle!!!'

A faint smile appeared at the corner of her lips as she realized she couldn't refuse him.

"Fine! I will read it first... But I want a double fee because I need more money, Uncle. I'm poor now after a one-month vacation and building a new office in this city..." Scarlett said in a pitiful tone which was met with thunderous laughter by Harvey Olson.

While Scarlett and Harvey were talking...

Logan and Cruz, who sat in the corner of the room, start to gossip.

"Do you know who the guy our boss is chatting with?" Cruz asked Logan, who was seriously looking at Scarlett and Harvey.

Not hearing Logan's answer, Cruz continued his sentence. "He is Mr. Harvey Olson, a star director who scored many box office hits."

"I know..." Logan answered casually.

"Oh, you know? Hahaha, sorry, I thought you didn't know." Cruz chuckled. "That Mr. Olson must be trying to persuade our Boss to accept the script again. Studio Phoenix is after Mr. Olson and our Boss..."

Logan slowly looked at Cruz. He wanted to dig up useful information about it.

"Do you know anything about Studio Phoenix?" Cruz asked again.

"Yeah, I think I heard the name before. Weren't they the country's largest film and entertainment industry company?" Logan doesn't want to say that he is part of the Riley Group.

"You're right. But unfortunately, somehow, our Boss never wants to work with them." There was disappointment in Cruz's tone.

Cruz hopes they work with Studio Phoenix because that company is the number one company in the country. And Red Animation Studio will have a strong footing if they can collaborate with them. But, strangely, his Boss always refused.

"May I know why she refused to work with them?" Logan wants to know. Maybe, he could give Ben a clue on how to approach Red Animation Studio.

Cruz was about to answer Logan, but he heard Scarlett calling him at the same time.

"Oh! They're done talking. Let's go..." Cruz stood up and walked happily towards Scarlett and Mr. Olson. "Sir, nice to meet you..." he politely greeted the director.

"Hello, Cruz, it's been a few months..." Harvey smiled. And when his eyes fell on Logan, he paused "...and this young man?"

"Uncle, this is Logan, my new assistant," Scarlett explained.

"Hello, Logan..." Harvey offered a handshake. "Please take care of Scarlett for me. She's a bit unreasonable at times, but she's really kind. You should bear with her, okay!?"

"Uncle, don't slander me..." Scarlett wanted to cry. How could he say she was an unreasonable person? Gosh!

Logan was speechless. Of course, he would take care of her. She was his Young Madam. "...Sir, don't worry, I will." He answered politely.

"Perfect!" Harvey clapped his hands happily and looked at Cruz again, "Cruz, make sure you take care of her. She looks so thin and pale!"

Cruz gulped. How could he now be blamed? "...Of course, sir, I will."

"All right, now you guys go to the next room. I've ordered the best chef to prepare tonight's meal. Scarlett, make sure you eat a lot..." Harvey said. Then, he escorted them to a separate door to the big hall where the dinner party was taking place.

"Uncle Harvey, let's go together!?" she said.

"No. I'm still waiting for other guests. I'll join you later."

Harvey just received a text from the CEO of the Riley Group informing them that they had arrived at the hotel lobby. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹．𝐨𝐫𝗴

Harvey didn't want them to run into Scarlett. Not before the girl agrees to work with them.
