Chapter 53: The Playwright

It's been almost a week since Gulliver's Circus left Renas.

The statue of the black-robed saint was restored and completed, and Donald also took advantage of the situation to create some "miracles" when the statue returned to its original position.

The construction of the private train station in the Howling Forest has been put on the agenda, and Donald has talked to the stationmaster of the railway station in Rainas City for this reason, and finally chose to leave this matter to the Rainas government to complete, after all, he doesn't know much about the construction of the railway station, and many times it belongs to the layman who knows the insider, and a person who only makes requests.

Of course, with Donald's current status, even if his request is unreasonable, the people below will naturally rack their brains to find a way to make it reasonable.

Aside from these things that are being carried out in an orderly manner, Donald is now focusing more on the matter of "Frost Sorrow".

Originally, this was just a whim of him, but in the follow-up planning and thinking, Donald unexpectedly found that there was a lot to be done, and if it was spread out, it could even solve a considerable part of the current problems that Renas could not solve at the government level.

Because of this, Donald informed all members of his current team, including Huxley and Victor, to gather at the Talos family villa three days ago, from 5 p.m. until late at night, in order to ensure that the whole project was under their control.

......

On another typical evening, Scarlett Steve stared out the window at the burning clouds over the city of Reynas, from which she hadn't been since she had followed her mother to the city a week earlier.

It's not that Scarlett doesn't want to go, but Angel Steve stops her from this thought, and tells Scarlett in a rather serious tone that she must stay here, even if Liu is in a daze all day!

For this reason, Angel Steve even used the money paid by the Talos family to buy a small two-story building in the wealthy area, and let Scarlett move in on the same day.

Scarlett understands her mother, just like the purpose of their visit, the Steve family needs a backer, and Sewvett Talos's purchase of Steve Minerals' shares certainly gives their mother and daughter a chance to breathe, but it does not completely prevent other capitalists and aristocrats in East Germany from thinking about the remaining shares.

There are even some capitalists who have no interest in shares because of the acquisition of Sewit Talos, in order to curry favor with this great nobleman, constantly try to take away the remaining shares, trying to use them as gold bricks to knock open the Talos manor villa.

So what Scarlett has to do now is very simple, that is, to make herself the lover of Sewit Talos, even if it is false, just a lover that exists in rumors.

Scarlett stayed in Renas in order to make it seem that Sewit Talos had "owned" her while buying the shares, so that the rest of the GDR would not dare to touch Steve Minerals as the private property of the Talos family.

So far, the plan has undoubtedly been successful, and Scarlett's stay in Rainas has made Steve's mining company in Marta City run more smoothly.

"But Lady Steve did this at the cost of your reputation and freedom, didn't she?"

A cold voice from behind her interrupted Scarlett's mournful thoughts.

"Denise, you're thinking too simply, not everyone has a harmonious family like you, loving parents and the power to pursue your dreams...... To be honest, there are times when I'm very jealous of you. ”

Scarlett, who was wearing delicate makeup, shook her head helplessly, turned away, and her eyes fell on the girl in the white dress who was writing something with a pen and paper not far behind her.

It was a good friend she had made when she was a student in Marta, the daughter of a baron in the city of Rainas, who came to spend time with her every day after learning that she lived in Rainas.

In fact, if it weren't for Denise by her side, Scarlett thought that sooner or later her spirit would have been forced to collapse by this lonely environment.

"What are you going to do next, Mr. Talos hasn't touched you again?"

Denise continued in a somewhat strange tone,

"This should be a good thing in my opinion, because the character of the mayor is really ...... Not so easy to accept. ”

As a cultivated lady, it is not allowed to speak ill of other nobles behind her back, so Denise can only express her thoughts in more tactful words.

"I know that I have heard of Mr. Talos's bad behavior in Marta before, and it seems that he also operated due to the bankruptcy of my family's mining company, and even prepared for the worst when my mother and I came here a week ago, but the strange thing is that after we met Mr. Talos, he did not give me the feeling of being as rude as the outside world said, maybe he was in a hurry, or maybe there was some other reason, and the share transfer agreement was signed very smoothly. ”

What happened in the Talos family villa is still fresh in Scarlett's memory, and they were transferred to Huxley, the butler, after only a few words with Sewit Taros, only to be settled before they could make some "special" sacrifices.

"Hmm...... A young girl sacrificed herself to the great nobles for the continuation of the family, but because of the snub of the nobles, she had to live alone in a small building...... Maybe it would be better to add an infatuated young man, wouldn't it?"

Denise held the pen and quickly wrote large paragraphs on the paper, and it was clear that she had received a lot of inspiration from her friend's deeds.

"Hey, Denise, you're making up a story about me without my permission!"

Realizing that her friend was creating a story based on herself, Scarlett got up angrily and leaned over and pinched her cheek and said.

"This should be my reward for accompanying you for so many days, I have a hunch, this story of yours will be very outstanding, recently the theater here in Renas has always urged me to ask for a script, I finally found such good material, you don't refuse me, even if you refuse, it's useless, because this is creation!"

Compared with other girls of the same age, Denise's hobby is undoubtedly a little strange, she is very fond of theater, not limited to going to the theater, but also extremely keen on writing scripts, and only at this time will she have a much less cold temperament.

"Well, as long as my name doesn't show up...... Do you want a play for a theater?"

Scarlett remembered that Denise had written a script that didn't even want the school's drama club, and now she was a little surprised that it was valued by the theater in the affluent district of Renas.

You must know that the theater that can be opened in the wealthy area of Renas is not an ordinary theater company, it is definitely above the second-rate level.

"You don't know yet, I'm a well-known playwright on the side of Renas, and I declare in advance that this has nothing to do with my father, because I submitted it under a pseudonym. ”

Speaking of this, Denise's face was filled with pride, and it was indeed something to be proud of to have become a famous playwright at such a young age.

Knock knock~

Scarlett was just about to answer, but the knock on the door downstairs came to the second floor, so she had to stop talking and turn her head to look out.

"Denise, it looks like your father is here!"

"My father, he should be going to a government meeting today, how could he be here, could it be that something happened at home?"

Denise ran to the window and looked, and found that it was indeed her father, and hurriedly went downstairs, and Scarlett followed.

As soon as the door opened, Denise felt a sigh in her heart, and her father's reddened face and sweat on his forehead outside the door were a sign that something had happened.

"Father, you ......"

"Denise, I remember that you mentioned the Quiet One when you showed me your script before, is this your pen name!"

Walter grabbed his daughter's shoulder, interrupted her, and looked anxious for confirmation.

"Yes, the Quiet One is my pen name, what's the problem?"

"Haha~ Okay, I knew that supporting your dream was the right choice, and it was up to you whether our family could go to the next level!"

"What are you talking about?"

Denise, who was a little flustered because of her father's excitement, asked with a frown.

"Mr. Mayor is looking for the most famous playwright in Renas through the theater, the Quiet One, that is, you have been chosen, as long as you can complete Mr. Mayor's task, our family will be richly rewarded, this is what Mr. Mayor promised me personally!"

Nowadays, anyone living in the upper echelons of Renas knows that Sevet Talos has a lot of resources in his hands, and the reward he is talking about is likely to be the lease of an entire street of shops, which is a good thing for anyone not to miss.

"What is Mr. Mayor doing when he summons playwrights?"

"My daughter, it's not something we need to think about, come with me now, Mr. Mayor is waiting for you. ”

"Okay......"

Although they don't understand the reason for the incident, since it was summoned by the mayor, they must go over as soon as possible, whether they understand it or not.

"Denise, I want to go with you!"

Scarlett was a little worried about Denise and subconsciously wanted to follow, after all, she was the only friend in Renas.
