Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 490

Chapter 490

“Mr. Beltran, besides the director’s incompetence and the poor script, do you think we could also use misuse of funds as a reason to replace Steven?”

“The Beltran Group can send auditors to the set to check the books.”

Xavier didn’t expect Ryan to be so capable and ruthless. He gave him a look with his deep, dark eyes and asked, “So have you found a suitable director and screenwriter?”

“Mr. Beltran, I’ve already contacted a famous commercial film director. I showed him the script. and he said it’s really bad. It would need a major rewrite. He’s also a screenwriter himself and happens to have a script. If possible, he’d like to film his own.”

Xavier said lightly, “Have you read his script? Do you think it’s good?”

“I think it’s a great script. If it’s filmed well, it’ll definitely be a blockbuster.”

“Alright then. As long as we can get rid of Josephine, that’s all that matters. Go do it.”

Ryan happily turned to leave, but then he remembered Mr. Beltran hadn’t had lunch yet. He turned back. “Mr. Beltran, your lunch?”

“Just order whatever.”

Ryan understood and went out to order lunch for Mr. Beltran.

Meanwhile, Josephine had no appetite at all. She was feeling anxious and kept glancing over at Aveline.

Dylan asked her, “Josie, what’s wrong? Why do you keep looking at Aveline?”

Josephine looked away and asked, “Cousin, how are your architectural designs coming along?”

“Not done yet.”

Josephine frowned. “Why is it taking so long? Aren’t you a professional?

Hurry up and finish it so you can show it to Xav. If he’s impressed with you, Aveline will be out of the picture.”

But Dylan didn’t seem to agree. “If I want Mr. Beltran to be impressed, I have to do a good job.

Chapter 490

Aveline hasn’t even come up with her concept drawings yet, so what’s the rush?”

288 Vouchers

Josephine bit on her fork, thought for a moment, and looked at Dylan. “Why don’t you see if you can find out what concept Aveline is working on.”

Dylan was startled. “You mean…”

Josephine gave a sinister smile. “My mom says, ‘Know your enemy and know yourself, and you can fight a hundred battles without defeat.“”

“If you submit your proposal first, then obviously it will look like Aveline copied you, not the other way around.”

Dylan’s heart pounded. “But there’s no way to see it. Aveline takes all her files and her computer with her when she leaves work.”

He also knew Aveline was very talented, and it wouldn’t be easy to beat her.

Josephine pressed her lips together. “She’s on guard against you.”

“We have to think of a good plan.”

“I’ll ask my mom. Maybe she’ll have an idea.‘

So, Josephine took a few quick bites of her food, told Dylan to stop eating, and the two of them left the restaurant, returned to the room, and Josephine called Courtney.

She also had to tell her mom about the two things Xavier had said to her on the phone earlier,

because she had a bad feeling.

Courtney heard from Josephine that Xavier had specifically sent his secretary to find her, only to hang up after saying a couple of things, so she quickly asked:

“What does that mean? Does he mean he knows you lied to him, or that he knows you were deliberately standing next to Aveline when you talked to him?”

Josephine said she wasn’t sure either, and that it was also possible Xavier had heard what Jasmine said.

Courtney asked her what she’d said, and she told her.
