Warm Married Life: Mr. President Loves His Darling Wife

Chapter 365 - 364: First Pot of Gold

Bella asked quickly, "Ms. Flynn, could you give me a few days off?"

Elaine Vaughn smiled, "Don’t worry, I know you all are working hard to keep up with the filming schedule. I’ll give you five days off, just report to the training class after that."

"Great, thank you, Ms. Flynn." Bella laughed and gave Elaine Vaughn a big hug, finally feeling relieved.

The three of them walked into the studio together, with Elaine Vaughn and Sharon Cheney talking all the way, while Bella listened on the side.

Due to past turmoil, a lot of people left Elaine Studio, leaving only a few newcomers.

With fewer people, there are more resources to go around. Moreover, now everyone thinks Elaine Studio has Damian Sinclair as its backing, so whether openly building good relations or secretly currying favor, many film contracts and notices are sent to the studio.

The remaining newcomers have been getting a lot of appearances lately and are gradually gaining some fame.

The artists who left before noticed the perks on this side and privately approached Elaine Vaughn numerous times, pleading to be allowed back, but she refused them all.

Elaine Vaughn said, "Wanting to share the sweet but not the bitter, where in the world is there such a good thing?"

"That’s true," Sharon Cheney nodded, "They left when the studio was at its toughest, it’s indeed disheartening."

"This industry changes fast; I can understand them seeking other opportunities fearing the studio wouldn’t recover," Elaine Vaughn said. "But this is not a charity; I won’t do good deeds expecting no return. Forget it, let’s not talk about these pointless things. Let’s go to The Virtuoso’s Table for lunch to welcome you two."

"Ah?" Bella hesitated.

Elaine Vaughn looked at her, "What’s wrong?"

Sharon Cheney smiled, "Someone’s coming to pick up Bella."

"Oh, I see why someone seemed hesitant about joining us for lunch," Elaine Vaughn teased with a deliberately drawn-out voice, "What is it? Going on a date?"

"No...no," Bella blushed.

"Ah, youth is wonderful," Elaine Vaughn said. "Alright, you go on your date, and I’ll go to lunch with Sharon and the others. Don’t forget to report to the training class in five days."

"Mm-hmm, Piggy will remind me, I won’t forget." Bella nodded. "By the way, Ms. Flynn, the production team has transferred the pay to my account. According to the contract, I should transfer sixty percent out. Can you give me an account number to transfer the money into?"

"Pfft, you silly girl, we hadn’t signed a contract when you took the ’Brocade River and Mountain’ job, so you keep this payment. For future jobs, the studio will sign contracts on your behalf, and the payment will go directly into the company account before distributing your share."

"I see." Bella scratched her cheek a little embarrassed, "I’ll know for next time."

This was also the first time she received so much money.

After several months of filming, although rushing the schedule and frequently working overtime was exhausting, she ended up getting close to three hundred thousand yuan, more than she’d ever imagined earning.

She had even planned that with this money, she’d first take Aunt Sienna to the hospital for a check-up, and if her health was fine, she’d save the remaining money to buy a house for Aunt Sienna and Ethan. Once they have their own home, they wouldn’t have to keep moving anymore.

Bella’s plan was especially well thought out; she figured with two or three more acting gigs, she should be able to buy a house outright.
