Chapter 28: Chapter 27: Ingenious Strategies of Zhuge

The two of them each caught up on two hours of sleep and felt somewhat refreshed.

Harrison originally took the day off to prepare for signing with Spotify Top, and he didnโ€™t need to go to work. He had a tough night and planned to sleep in, but he didnโ€™t manage to.

He was forcibly awakened by Carrie, who was getting even for him waking her up earlier, and got up from bed reluctantly.

At this point, Carrie was already dressed neatly.

The season was already turning into winter, and the weather was getting cooler.

Carrie was wearing a white cashmere coat that was very body-fitting.

A sky-blue turtleneck sweater poked out from the neckline of her coat.

She also wore a pair of black corduroy leisure pants on her lower body, wrapping her legs tightly without appearing bulky, instead highlighting her long legs advantageously.

Carrie never deliberately studied fashion and didnโ€™t hire an image designer like most professional female celebrities. Moreover, with her current financial situation, she couldnโ€™t afford the exclusive high-end clothing that everyone thought looked great.

But some people just naturally have good taste, making them look great in any outfit.

Perhaps it was because she recently lost her job and her biological clock bounced back, but Carrieโ€™s overall vitality seemed to have improved significantly.

It seemed she had been up for a while. Her face was lightly made up, making her even more attractive. Coupled with her seemingly casual but stunning outfit, the impact of her originally top-tier looks was boosted even further.

Harrison initially felt a bit drowsy and unhappy, but after seeing her, his mood improved significantly.

Although the woman opposite him had a bad temper, as long as she didnโ€™t talk and just looked good, he could still stand her.

โ€œI talked to Spotify Top about signing at 10 AM sharp today. Itโ€™s almost time now,โ€ Carrie said, looking at her watch.

Harrison pondered for a moment, โ€œWhen itโ€™s 10 oโ€™clock, Lewis Brown, their director, will definitely call personally to show how much Spotify Top values you and further prove my information is correct.โ€

โ€œAre you sure? What if they donโ€™t call?โ€

Although she believed Harrisonโ€™s words earlier, Carrie still had some doubts as the moment drew closer. After all, it was like she was standing someone up.

Harrison smirked mysteriously, โ€œTrust my judgment. Thereโ€™s a lot of hidden knowledge in the way of the world.โ€

Unable to resist, Carrie rolled her eyes, โ€œWant to make a bet?โ€

Harrison raised an eyebrow, not realizing she had this hobby, โ€œWhat are we betting on?โ€

โ€œA thousand bucks!โ€

Harrison asked with a smile, โ€œDo you even have money now?โ€

Carrie paused before feeling her pocket, โ€œSeems like I only have around five hundred. How about we bet five hundred?โ€

โ€œNever mind. We still have a while to go before we recoup our funds, so donโ€™t go making it so you canโ€™t even afford to eat,โ€ Harrison said.

Carrie, however, was now interested, โ€œThen letโ€™s bet on something else.โ€

Harrison thought for a moment, โ€œWell, betting money is no fun. Letโ€™s go big.โ€

Without a second thought, Carrie replied, โ€œDonโ€™t bring up any unhealthy requirements! I told you Iโ€™m a singleist!โ€

Harrisonโ€™s mouth twitched.

From her expression, Harrison had thought she was unaffected by his earlier advances. He didnโ€™t expect her to be holding a grudge.

โ€œWhat are you thinking!โ€ Harrison pretended to be furious, โ€œAm I that kind of person!โ€

Carrie shook her head, โ€œNo.โ€

โ€œWhat I want to bet on is about your โ€“ no, my new song. If I get the chance, the next song we collaborate on will follow the same arrangement as this time, including the profit-sharing ratio and copyright ownership.โ€

Carrie was taken aback, โ€œThe next one? Have you written it already?โ€

Harrison shamelessly nodded, โ€œItโ€™s almost done, ready to go anytime.โ€

โ€œYouโ€ฆ youโ€™re really prolificโ€ฆโ€ Carrie covered her mouth.

Harrison gestured that there was no need for her to speak, he understood everything. novelbuddy.c(o)m

โ€œSo what if I win?โ€

Harrison: โ€œIf you win, Iโ€™llโ€ฆ give you another song!โ€

Carrie was furious, โ€œThatโ€™s the same as losing!โ€

Harrison coughed twice, โ€œWe can renegotiate the profit-sharing ratio, and Iโ€™ll concede a bit more.โ€

โ€œOh.โ€

Carrie fell into thought.

Two minutes later, Harrison looked at his watch, โ€œThereโ€™s only one minute left to 10 oโ€™clock.โ€

Carrie gritted her teeth, โ€œFine!โ€

Harrison chuckled.

At 10 oโ€™clock, Carrieโ€™s phone rang punctually, and the caller ID showed an unknown number.

โ€œHello?โ€ She answered doubtfully and turned on the speaker.

โ€œHello, is this Miss Carrie Thomas? Iโ€™m Lewis Brown, the director of Spotify Top Copyright Management. Didnโ€™t we agree to meet today at 10 oโ€™clock? Iโ€™ve been waiting in the office since, and you still havenโ€™t arrived?โ€

Carrie gave Harrison a strange look, as if she was looking at a monster.

What a clairvoyant!

Are you the reincarnation of some legendary strategist?

This is too accurate!

Just as Carrie was about to refuse their offer, Harrison quickly gestured to her to stall.

On the phone, Carrie hesitated, unsure of how to answer.

With her personality, she wouldโ€™ve discussed this matter directly, but Harrison obviously had some tricks up his sleeve.

Carrie glared at Harrison, her expressive eyes seemingly asking, โ€œWhat on earth do you mean?โ€

โ€œCarrie? Are you there? Is the signal bad?โ€ Lewis pressed anxiously on the phone.

By this time, Harrison had stood up, but hesitated in place.

Out of urgency, Carrie pinched his waist lightly.

Harrison pretended to be hurt, hissed, and quickly sat next to her, not caring about gender boundaries. He whispered in her other ear that wasnโ€™t on the phone, โ€œDonโ€™t reject them outright. Just say there was an unexpected situation today, and you had to leave temporarily in the morning, saying that youโ€™re not in Oxfordshire right now.โ€

Carrie didnโ€™t understand his intentions, but still honestly relayed the message to the other party.

Lewis was silent for about ten seconds before speaking again, โ€œThatโ€™s a bit of a shame.โ€

Carrieโ€™s earlobe turned slightly red, unsure if it was because of Harrisonโ€™s whispering-hot breath or the embarrassment of lying.

โ€œIโ€™m sorry, Mr. Brown. This really was an unexpected situation, and I didnโ€™t have time to notify your company. I apologize,โ€ she said.

โ€œItโ€™s okay, why donโ€™t we reschedule? Miss Thomas, just let me know when youโ€™re available, and Iโ€™ll make it work on my end,โ€ Lewis replied.

Harrison instructed Carrie to say this, โ€œTell him itโ€™s a family situation, so itโ€™s hard for you to settle on a time right now. Letโ€™s reschedule in three days. Your tone must be sincere. Apologize genuinely, as if you truly owe him a fortune.โ€

Harrison even specified her tone, so it was clear he was trying to make things difficult for Carrie, who wasnโ€™t good at acting.

It took her a lot of effort to reluctantly convey his message, but it was unclear if her tone achieved the effect Harrison wanted.

Lewis, a bit exasperated, eventually hung up the phone after wishing Carrie all the best.

Carrie threw her phone on the coffee table and was about to move away from Harrison, feeling uncomfortable at their proximity. However, she noticed that Harrison had swiftly moved back to the opposite side.

She stared straight into his eyes, โ€œSpill it.. Whatโ€™s your plan?โ€
