The Hero

Chapter 195 Wrong Way

After successfully removing the GTR from its tail, Javier looks for a place to turn in order to stop Maserati.

“You kept driving after I got out of the car. Go wherever you want.”

After that, Javier opened the door and was about to get out.

Gigi did not dare to ask for her phone number. He was now gathering all the courage he had so that he could do it this time.

“Can you give me your phone number, Javier?”

Javier smiles and assesses Gigi. "Why? Do you want to date me?"

.

Gigi is embarrassed. He wanted to say no, but he couldn't tell her what Zeke was planning or it seemed like he had ulterior motives.

So, he came up with a random excuse instead. "IL.I want to apologize to you for what happened before."

“No need, you already apologized for that. Good bye now!"

With a thud, the door slammed shut and Javier darted into the tunnel beside him. Riding back into the driver's seat, Gigi adjusted her rearview mirror and looked at it. 'I have taken off my nose ring and have returned to my clean and ordinary self. So, I have to be fun now, right? Why is Javier still looking at me like I'm a man?

Gigi pulled the collar of her shirt and looked inside before she angrily struck the steering wheel. “Split my leg chest! That's a huge accusation! Even though I am only A-cup, they are not flat! I am still young, so they can still grow!”

Gigi muttered for a while longer before she started to return. Three seconds after he set off again, the black GTR appeared once again and continued trailing his Maserati.

“Damn it, do you think you can get away from me? No way! I'm riding the Skyline-GTR, you know! ” The driver curses as he follows Maserati.

GTR has a much easier time following its target this time around. She followed the red Maserati for over ten minutes before they arrived at a beauty salon. Then, he saw the driver get out of the car and realized that it was a woman.

The driver was made silent. 'I clearly saw Javier get into the driver's seat, so why would a woman step out?!'

After the woman entered the salon, the driver hurriedly drove his car and stopped beside Maserati.

'F* ck! There's no one here! Javier must have gotten out of the car when I let my guard down!

The driver, leaning sadly into his seat, recalled the path he had found in Maserati earlier. He is now running out of energy. He thought that he was invincible with his GTR and was not afraid of facing challenges from anyone, let alone a simple job of tailing someone. However, in reality, his target already had enough time to qualify early when he was overtaken …

Meanwhile, Javier sits inside a taxi and casually rushes to where he was supposed to meet with Saoirse and the director. They'll meet at Mr. Gander's private house. When Javier arrives, he must go through security checks before being allowed access.

'Hm. There is a reason why this residential area is known as an entertainment area.

'I just walked down the main streets and I've been through some celebrities. If a movie fan came here, they would definitely be very happy, get the signatures of all the celebrities, and take lots of photos…'

However, Javier had absolutely no such thoughts. “Photo with celebrity... bah! It was as if they were worth taking pictures with me!

Dana is the wife of Mr. Gander who is also a famous actress. Although she was now in her 40s, she was once considered to be a very beautiful woman.

“Halo, I was introduced here by Saoirse. I have an appointment with Mr. Gander.”

"Oh okay. Saoirse called me yesterday about your arrival. Please come in."

The video on the intercom ends and the door automatically opens. In the foyer, there is a machine that automatically wraps someone's shoes, which Javier allows to do his job before getting into Mr.'s house. The broad gander.

Upon arrival in the living room, Javier sees Dana's friendly face. Dana still looks very beautiful even though she is over 40 years old. Moreover, he had a very sincere smile and did not give the impression that he was a tall and mighty haughty person. Instead, she was like the woman next door.

However, Javier was not there to meet this woman today, but her husband. Mr. Gander is one of the best-known directors of the fifth generation, and he specializes in directing feature films. As Saoirse said, movie trends have changed recently. Besides, the changes are getting weird. Genres that could pack the box office in the past are no longer as strong as they once were with young directors.

Javier greeted Dana enthusiastically and finished introducing himself before he asked, "Do you know where Mr Gander is?"

Dana looks a little embarrassed. “She was supposed to meet you this mother, but the culture department suddenly called her for a few things. I'm sure you know that this kind of invitation is hard to turn down, so I'm really sorry. He asked me to speak to you first on his behalf. ”

Javier is more or less able to understand what happened based on Dana's tone of voice. 'He may not necessarily be asked by the culture department. But one thing is for sure, she doesn't want to see me, which is why she asked Dana to be her representative.

“In this way, he will not look rude, plus he will be able to avoid any problems with his personal relationship that might cause him to lose the strength to refuse to take the project.'

However, Javier has absolutely no objection as he is very confident Mr. Gander will not turn him down. After Javier and Dana chatted casually for a while, Dana poured Javier a cup of coffee before they plunged into official business.

“I'm sure you know that my husband is out of luck with the movie he directed this year. Be it a film he had to take on out of personal desire or some other reason, which caused the reputation and market of his works over the past few years to deteriorate very quickly. He only managed to improve this last year.

“Meanwhile my husband wants to see the script first. If he thinks it's a good fit, he'll call you himself.”

Without discussing price or personal favors, the entire ten minutes Javier was there consisted of nine minutes of casual chat and one minute of official affairs. In addition, Javier will be sent out the door once he hands over the script as he is told that all the others will come after Mr. Gander passes through.

Javier doesn't like such a tedious process. Plus, it's a waste of time. What he likes is to run his business quickly and efficiently, which is why Javier takes a check out of his pocket and puts it on the table, keeping it in place with his cup..

"Mrs. Gander, we're still looking for someone to write the script, but this is a sign of my sincerity. I was a bit in a hurry with this film because I wanted to run for the Osborn award. I'll be very honest with you, I'm not short of funds, but my shortcomings at the moment are good directors and good scripts.

“I've asked someone to write the script, which will be done soon. However, even after it's done, I won't rush to bring him in for inspection by Mr. Gander. Instead, I will first send it to the jury for the Osborn award and change it completely before I look for Mr. Gander to help direct it.

Dana frowned, looking a little displeased as Javier pulled out his check. In his eyes, Javier is clearly another child from a wealthy family who will be involved in the takeover. There are many people who have heard that movies are a huge moneymaker, which is why they go there empty handed without a script. All they bring is a check, which they loosely want to say, “I hire you to direct a movie. Hurry up and finish it. Whatever you see is not your problem.

Dana is a veteran actress. Although she is still beautiful and even said to be the most beautiful woman in terms of traditional genre films, Dana is a professional at her job and wants to finish each of her projects to the best of her ability rather than just being focused on making a profit. This also applies to her husband.

So, every time she met someone like Javier who was intent on doing a takeover, Dana would feel her stomach rumble. Even worse, Javier is so arrogant that he even dares to say he wants to compete for the Osborn award!

Unable to contain his anger, he sneered, "Do you think the Osborn award is a gold bar that you can take from the gold shop just because you are rich ?!"
