Chapter 585
He sent the address pronto
By then, Maja had arrived in the private room. After knocking, she stepped in to find a row of middle–aged men, each with a woman on their arm.
Middle–aged men, once they become addicted to booze and babes, give off a greasy vibe, and it was not a pretty sight.
Maja frowned slightly, then spotted Carlos in the middle.
This was the guy she was here to see tonight.
Carlos had achieved some fame with his last TV show, and now there were a lot of people looking to invest in him. He had planned on turning Maja down, but when he saw the gorgeous woman who had just walked in, his eyes instantly lit up. The woman in his arms suddenly seemed to lose her shine.
“Carlos.”
At Maja’s call, Carlos stood up immediately.
“You must be Ms. Penny; take a seat. I knew you must be a stunner just from your voice on the phone!”
All eyes in the room turned toward her.
Every industry had its cliques. The people in the room now were all Carlos‘ buddies, all small–time directors.
Maja caught the smell of cheap booze and perfume in the air and felt a little uncomfortable.
But it reminded her of scenes she had seen when she was a kid, tagging along with Neil to social events. It was exactly the same.
So she adapted easily.
If you show weakness, no one’s going to give you respect.
Carlos gently pushed the woman beside him away and eagerly gestured for Maja to come over.
Maja skirted around the men’s feet and took a seat.
She kept a cool face, smiling at Carlos.
“Carlos 1 want to invest in your next movie; you know why I’m here.”
“Ms. Penny, let’s have a drink first, then we can talk business, okay?”
The other directors chimed in.
“Yeah, we can’t talk business before having a drink.”
Maja had popped a few hangover pills before coming, so she lifted her glass and said, “Carlos, a toast to you.”
Seeing Maja raise her glass, Carlos‘ face brightened. He clinked glasses with her, but as he put his glass down, his chubby hand landed on Maja’s thigh, rubbing it.
“I didn’t expect Ms. Penny to be so young.”
Maja’s eyelashes fluttered, but she kept her polite smile.
Carlos took her silence for consent, and the others in the room perked up.
Carlos pointed to his own thigh.
“Ms. Penny, let’s cut to the chase. I won’t do anything to you tonight. You sit on our laps, let us each kiss you for ten minutes, and you can invest in our next movie.”
Aside from Carlos, the other directors here only made small web series.
Most people might think these unheard–of shorts can’t make money, but in reality, these small web series rake in cash the fastest, so they’re usually not a losing business.
When Maja heard this request, her smile slowly faded, and she stood up.
“Carlos, I’ll go freshen up in the bathroom.”
Carlos grabbed Maja, making no attempt to hide his intentions.
“Ms. Penny, you smell so good; you don’t need to freshen up; we’re all getting impatient.”
Maja frowned; she knew the entertainment and finance industries were both a hot mess, the messiest of all industries.
These two industries made money fast, had the most transactions involving money and sex, and were the most chaotic. Ordinary people could never imagine how dirty they were.
Maja took a deep breath and shook off Carlos‘ hand.
But Carlos was on a roll because his last show was a hit. Being rejected by a woman enraged him, and he immediately pushed Maja onto the sofa.
Seeing Carlos like this, the others were a bit scared.
After all, in this age of the internet, if anything went wrong, everyone would be in hot water.
And this woman was here to invest, which meant she was loaded.
Even though they also wanted to spend time with a beauty, it wasn’t worth ruining their futures over a woman.
“Carlos, let it go; don’t make a big deal out of it.”
At this point, Maja was being choked by Carlos. She heard him yell, “All of you get out I’ll deal with her first, then you guys can have a turn. I’ve seen plenty of women like her; they all think they’re too good for this!”
Who’d dare to argue? Carlos was famous now, they couldn’t afford to offend him.
The crowd quickly left.

Chapter 585
Carlos was cussing while taking off his pants.
Maja was surprisingly calm, saying, “Carlos, if you kill me or force me, that’s illegal.
*Shut up!”
Maja tumed off the recording function on her phone, about to take out her pepper spray.
Then she’d use the recording to blackmail Carlos.
She came here alone, so she definitely had a plan.
But the door to the room was opened before she could see who it was, and Carlos was grabbed and hit over the head with two beer bottles.
Maja sat up in surprise, then saw lan pick up a chair and smash it into Carlos‘ back.
Carlos‘ head was covered in blood, and he was lying motionless on the floor.
lan looked terrifying, ready to smash a heavier vase onto Carlos.
If that vase hit, Carlos was done for.
