    Chapter 149


    Cullen nodded, “Ms. Aubree Berry has lived in Bordeaux for many years.”


    Marie followed Dennis onto the ne without speaking. If she remembered correctly, Carly had been


    sent to Bordeaux by Asher. Edward had been controlling her money ording to the standard living


    expenses of an ordinary university student. Marie wondered how Carly had been doing that


    year.


    When the nended in Bordeaux, it was already 10PM. The hotel had arranged a car to pick them


    up. This time, Cullen couldn’te because he


    was busy with work in America.


    After returning to the hotel and cleaning up, Marie couldn’t fall asleep as she tossed and turned. She


    was a bit excited, thinking that if they could secure the copyrights to make a movie, Sasha’s fame


    wouldn’t be limited to a small film. like The Earthquake. They could even send the movie abroad for


    award


    nominations.


    The next day, Marie woke up early, waiting for Dennis to take her to meet


    Aubree.


    Dennis drove her to a mansion and said, “This is the ce.”


    Marieughed, “I’ll go by myself, you just wait here for me.”


    Dennis said helplessly, “Marie, this matter isn’t that easy.”


    Marieughed brightly, “I know, if it were easy, someone would have beaten me to the draw already. It’s


    the challenge that makes it interesting!”


    Dennis reached out and touched her hair, saying, “Go ahead, good luck.”


    Marie got out of the car and rang the doorbell. Before long, a housekeeper came out and opened the


    door. Speaking in French, she asked, “Who are you looking for?”


    “I’m looking for Ms. Aubree Berry, is she at home?” Marie asked.


    The housekeeper nodded, went in and said something, then came out and


    opened the door, inviting her in.


    Marie looked back at Dennis, shed him a peace sign, and then followed the


    housekeeper into the mansion.


    The mansion was very spacious, and its interior design featured a typical European-style. Marie


    followed the housekeeper inside, and after several


    twists and turns, they arrived at the outdoor garden.


    It was summer, and beautiful roses were blooming in the garden. A woman


    with long hair and a blue dress was standing in the garden, watering the


    nts. The sunlight cast a shadow on her back, making her look serene and


    gentle.


    The housekeeper walked over and said something. The woman turned around,


    looked at Marie, suddenly paused, and the watering can in her hand dropped to


    the ground with a ng.


    Marie walked over, picked up the watering can, and handed it to the housekeeper. She then turned and


    asked, “Are you alright?”


    The woman shook her head, realizing herpse inposure, adjusted her


    expression, and smiled as she said, “It’s fine. May I ask what this youngdy


    needs from me?”


    Aubree should be in her forties this year, but she took great care of herself.


    Her skin was smooth and fair, her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, and she exuded elegance. If it


    weren’t for the faint fine lines around her eyes, Marie


    would have believed her to be in her twenties.


    “Hello Ms. Berry, my name is Marie Spence, and I came here to discuss Double Sided with you.” Marie


    looked at Aubree nervously, afraid that she would be


    rejected immediately.


    Get Borut


    Aubree chuckled and looked at Marie, “Oh? Ms. Spence, do you work in film and television?”


    Marie nodded, “Yes, I read Old Mr. Berry’s book and thought that turning it into a movie would definitely


    be a huge sess, so I specifically came to Bordeaux to visit you.”


    Aubree greeted Marie with a smile and invited her to sit down, saying, “Ms. Spence, there’s no need to


    be nervous, let’s just have a casual chat.”


    Marie followed Aubree and sat down on the wicker chairs in the garden. The housekeeper brought


    refreshments and offered her a morning snack. Marie took a sip of coffee, and the rich aroma of roses


    filled her nostrils, fragrant.


    and natural.


    “Ms. Spence, why would you think that if I gave you the copyrights, you could make this movie well?”


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Aubree asked.


    Marie put down her coffee mug and said, “It’s because I have the best


    production team resources, can hire the best director, and can find the most


    suitable actors.”


    Aubreeughed and seemed very happy, “Ms. Spence, you seem very confident. In that case, let’s talk


    again when you find the suitable actors.”


    Marie was about to say that she already had someone in mind when Aubree


    stood up and said, “I’m tired, Ms. Spence, you go ahead.”


    Before Marie could respond, a housekeeper had already rushed over to help Aubree back to rest.


    Marie sat awkwardly alone in the garden and could only get up and leave. On her way out, she


    grabbed two pieces of finger food.


    Back in the car, Dennis asked, “How did it go?”


    Marie shook her head, then nodded, furrowing her brow in confusion, and said, “I don’t know, it seems


    like Ms. Aubree Berry isn’t as opposed to transferring copyrights as the rumors suggest, and our


    conversation was quite


    natural and gentle, but I also feel like she’s leading me on.”


    Marie frowned, thinking about Aubree’s appearance just now, and said, “Let’s try again tomorrow.”


    Dennis looked at Marie and said, “I can find other scripts for you.”


    Marie shook her head, “You found this for me because you thought it was the best, right? I’ll try again.


    As long as she hasn’t explicitly rejected me, I still have a chance to get it.”


    Dennis nodded and said, “Let’s go, we’ll eat first.”


    “Mmm!” Marieughed and stuffed a piece of finger food into Dennis’ mouth, saying, “I grabbed it on


    the way, give it a try.”


    Dennis gave a helpless smile and ate the finger food.


    Dennis drove her to a French restaurant, where they both had two steaks, followed by some desserts.


    In the end, Marie was so full that she urged Dennis to go for a walk with her.


    Bordeaux is considered the sixthrgest city in France, with well-developed urban construction and a


    rtively advanced economy. So, when Asher brought Carly to Bordeaux, Marie was a bit unhappy.


    Two people were walking along the roadside, with beautiful silver firs on both sides of the road, lush


    and thriving. Various people were sitting by the


    roadside, very leisurely.


    Dennis held Marie’s hand as they strolled leisurely, waiting until they had digested their food before


    heading back.


    Halfway there, a man with medium-length hair rushed over, startling Marie. Dennis protected her by


    standing in front of her. The man extended his hand, holding a piece of paper, and asked in French,


    “Do you want to buy this? 50 euros.”


    Get Bogus


    Marie peeked at the paper, which had a vivid sketch on it. There was a lush silver fir, a wide road in the


    center, and a tall man with his arm around a suit. He held the girl’s hand, who was tall and charming,


    with a rxed and contented smile on her face. The two were looking at each other, talking about


    something, as if they could only see each other in their eyes.


    Marie was taken aback. Was this how she looked when she gazed at Dennis? So dependent and so


    sweet?


    Dennis took out 50 euros, handed them to the man, and received the painting.


    He smiled and said, “Ms. Spence, look at your expression, not bad, huh?”


    Marie blushed, “What do you mean ‘not bad’? Don’t think too much!”


    “I wasn’t daydreaming, I was just looking at someone’s realistic painting and telling the truth,” Dennis


    said with a smile, looking at Marie.
