Chapter 38 Good Old Days


    As it turned out, his woman was indeed smart, and understood the most essential point immediately.


    Natalia raised the cup and took a sip of the tea. Then she said lightly, “You should let your men to make


    this matter clear, and then I will help you handle the rest.”


    Reminded by Natalia, Stephen also realized how weird the whole thing was. Immediately, he called his


    agent, and asked him to find out what happened.


    Natalia waited until he finished the call, and then she added, “Then I should tell you about my n. Tell


    me if you find anything wrong or you have anything to add.”


    Stephen nodded, “Emm, go ahead.”


    Then Natalia told them roughly about the n she just made, and after hearing what she said, they all


    nodded in agreement.


    Stephen was so happy as if he had just got hisst chance.


    After all it had been half a month, and he still could not find a viable way to solve the problem.


    Only Natalia only had a rough idea, but for Stephen, it just sounded perfect.


    The three of them walked out of the restaurant and said goodby to each other.


    Natalia did not leave with Archie, since it had beente, and he needed to go to hispany.


    And she drove her own car here, so she didn’t need a ride. After they said goodbye, she just left herself


    driving her own car.


    She didn’t drive back to the McCarthy Mansion, however.


    Instead, she drove back to her little apartment.


    She had promised Archie to live with him, but she just had so many things here, and naturally she had


    to take them over.


    She understood Archie was just being considerate, but she felt it morefortable to use the items


    she had got used to.


    After packing up, when she was about to leave with her suitcase, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a


    box in the corner of the couch.


    It was a ck box with delicate decorations wrapped in a coat of ck velvet.


    She paused for a while, turned back, and opened the box.


    That was the birthday present she had bought for Shawn.


    She had wanted to give it to him when it was his birthday. Unfortunately, even before that day, she had


    caught Shawn and Jessica in the bed.


    Thinking about what had happened, she could not help but to let out a chuckle with a hint of self-


    mockery.


    It was just a few days ago, and she was no longer sad but numb.


    Heh, human! You just changed so easily.


    She put the box back, but then thought better of it and put it into her suitcase along with her other


    belongings.


    It cost her a fortune, no matter what!


    Would it not be a waste if she just put the box here? She could at least sell it and take some money


    back.


    Then Natalia “The Businesswoman” Dawson pulled the suitcase and walked out happily.


    When she got downstairs, she put the suitcase to her car and drove directly towards the McCarthy


    Mansion.


    As soon as she returned to the mansion, she locked herself in the room and began to prepare a PR


    n for Stephen.


    She told him just a rough idea in the afternoon, since she had not known much about what had


    happened.


    Now though, she was trying to add more details to her n.


    After she was done with it, she sent the n to Stephen.


    They had exchanged contact information with each other in the afternoon. After she sent the file to him,


    Stephen did not reply immediately. She guessed he was just busy so she also just left it behind her


    mind, put her phone aside and walked downstairs.


    It was six in the evening already.


    It was about time for Archie toe back.


    There was the appetizing aroma from the kitchen already. Natalia stretched her body a bit and took a


    stroll outside the vi before she finally got back inside.


    Then there was the sound of the engine from the outside.


    She knew it was Archie. She walked to the door and saw him getting off the car.


    He was wearing his white shirt, and in his arm was his suit. The tall and slender figure of him looked


    elegant and graceful as ever.


    Mrs. Dottie, hearing the sound, also walked out from the kitchen, “Wee home, Mr. McCarthy.”


    Archie nodded slightly, andnded his eyesight on Natalia, with a hint of warmth and pleasure in his


    eyes.


    He wrapped his arm around her waist and led her into the vi.


    “You alwayse out to wait for me. I will think you have fallen in love with me.”


    The voice of the man was low yet powerful, and only Natalia could hear him.


    While she tried not to, her delicate face flushed a bit and she pushed him away with her hands.


    “Don’t you tter yourself, youcent man. I am here for a walk. It’s just a coincidence.”


    “Yesterday it was the sunset, today you are here for a walk. What a fate we have here, Mrs.


    McCarthy?”


    Natalia could not say a word.


    She knew she could never win him and she just gave up debating with him altogether. Instead, she just


    walked into the dining hall.


    And Archie just smiled and knew better than to continue.


    After he finished the dinner, he walked into his study, as if he still got something to do.


    Natalia did not want to disturb him.


    After all, she also got business to deal with.


    Among the threepanies she had got from Henry Miller, two had been sold. The one she had kept


    for herself was an entertainmentpany called Star Entertainment.


    The reason why she had kept thispany was because she was a PR herself.


    She had wanted to establish apany of her own, but it would be tooplicated if she would need


    to start everything from scratch suddenly. Now that she was given such a chance, she would naturally


    take it.


    She hadn’t been to thepany so far, she had just heard of and had a rough idea of thispany.


    When they signed the takeover contract, Henry had also given her the documents of thepany.


    After she had read these files carefully, she found the situation much worse than she had thought.


    It made sense though. If it wasn’t in a desperately bad situation, who would ever sell thepany.


    Star Entertainment had a history of almost forty years. Decades ago, it was still quite famous as an


    entertainmentpany in the country.


    There was a time when Star Entertainment became the leader of the entire industry. A lot of stars and


    dozens of unprecedentedly influential works hade from thepany.


    Normally speaking, such an oldpany should not have ended up like this.


    But actually, when their best PR at that time, Julia, left thepany to work as an agent and brought


    many of the most popr stars with her, thepany had begun to fail.


    Julia had taken away three groups of artists from Star Entertainment, and Star Entertainment had put


    most of its resources on these artists. Their leaving with Julia no doubt had drained all the blood of the


    The reason why these artists had been willing to follow Julia and leave thepany was because their


    contract between them and thepany had been very harsh, and thepany did not pay them very


    well.


    That’s why they would rather pay arge amount of money for contract breach than continue the


    suffering in thepany.


    While Star Entertainment almost doubled its revenue for this reason, without these artists, thepany


    was simply a walking dead, falling gradually.


    After all of the changes in the industry and the rising of simrpanies, Star Entertainment just


    shrank further and further.


    Today, the once glorious entertainment empire of its time had been reduced to less than ten artists, and


    even these artists were just some small-time actors and actresses nobody knew.


    In terms of the resources they had, it was even worse.

    For the past year, they could not even earn a single profitable contract for the artists in the
