"What is it?" Elliot asked while removing his clothes.


    "Melvin wants to hire Eric as our spokesperson because he thinks that Eric is popr and that this will increase our sales," Avery said.


    "And what do you think?"


    "What do I think? Don''t you know me?" She sighed. "If I go to Eric, he won''t turn me down. I just feel awkward because Eric would never ept payment, at least not in ordance with his normal rates... That''s just as bad as asking him to do it for free."


    "If this troubles you that much, just reject your vice president''s proposal." Elliot was supportive. "There are plenty of popr idols that you can choose from."


    "But Melvin is dead set on Eric because Eric is more popr than most."


    "That''s just what you think. You might think that he''s the most popr guy in the whole universe, but are you sure that''s what everyone else thinks?" He retorted. "There are countless idols out there and all their fans all think that their idols are the most popr."


    "That makes sense," she said sheepishly. "What would you do if you were me?"


    "Do whatever you want." Elliot was not Avery, so he could not make a decision in her ce.


    "Can''t you just imagine that you are me?" She red at him.


    "I can, but I would think about something else if I was you."


    "And what''s that?"


    "If I was you, I would think about who I want as a husband," Elliot said.


    Avery was instantly rendered speechless. "Whatever. I won''t ask you about this anymore. You act weird every time we talk about Eric."


    "You told me to be nice to him, am I not nice enough?" He asked. "If you are just worried that he won''t take your money, just speak to his manager directly."Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    "It''s not appropriate to ignore him and go straight to his manager. Besides, he doesn''t always listen to his manager."


    "If you are struggling this much, it means you want to work with him." Elliot could see right through her. "Just threaten him and say that you will cut him out of your life if he refuses to take your money. bet''s see if he will obey."


    "... I feel like you are toying with me."


    Elliot lifted an eyebrow and looked at her innocently.


    "Can you be more mature?" Avery headed to the bathroom with her pajamas and Elliot followed.


    "How am not mature? You really

    don''t, it won''t affect yourpany."


    "Do you really think so?" Avery closed the bathroom door behind him.


    "You exined everything to me before, right? I won''t be so childish over this."


    Avery was satisfied with Elliot''s

    "That only happens if there''s a conflict of interest. Nothing will change between us if we talk about money, right?"
