Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love

Lily Gray never expected this.

The glamorous heartthrob turned out to be so unreasonable.

Yet, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and agree to David Redington’s terms, for the sake of the TV series ‘The Tale of The Beloved Mistress’.

The next day, Lily cooked noodles for him as agreed.

David sat casually.

He picked up his cutlery with his slender fingers, lifting a piece of green vegetable up to his eyes.

He tilted his head slightly, squinting at the vegetable.

The smooth lines of his jaw and the slight movement of his Adam’s apple made him look like a cool, gorgeous man who had stepped out of an advertisement.

“What kind of vegetable is this… it’s so ugly.”

Lily Gray:”…”

Ugly?

Who has ever described spinach like this?

David didn’t speak. He brought the spinach close to his nose, sniffed it, and only took a bite after making sure there was no strange smell.

Hmm… it tasted better than he had imagined.

He rarely had the opportunity to eat home-cooked meals, and this was the first time in his life he had tasted such vegetables.

Lily was speechless. When she came over, she had brought some side dishes for the noodles.

David’s refrigerator was pitifully empty. The few vegetables left were all that remained.

“It’s delicious.” David sighed after eating the last noodle.

He casually pushed the silver hair out of his face, revealing a satisfied smile.

Perhaps it was her own illusion, but seeing his smile, Lily felt warmth and freedom for a moment.

This was a stark contrast to the gloomy and irritable man who had initially opened the door for her.

After watching David eat noodles, Lily was ready to leave.

“Wait.” Seeing her pick up her bag, David suddenly stopped her.

“Come to the study room with me.”

David didn’t care about her reaction and stood up, heading for the study room.

Lily hesitated for a moment but had no choice but to follow him with her bag.

“These are the conditions for me to participate in your company’s TV series. Take them.” Leaning against the desk, David handed her a prepared document.

“If you agree, bring the contract tomorrow, and these terms will be written into the contract.”

Lily didn’t expect David to be so easygoing.

She thought that at least after she cooked noodles for ten days, he would relax and discuss the contract with her.

The thought of speeding up the process and resolving the company’s mess earlier made Lily’s worry fade slightly.

However, upon reading the contract that David handed over, she almost choked.

“No cooperation with non-competent actors? No cooperation with non-premier teams? No cooperation with stupid directors? David… this is a TV series, with limited investment, not a movie… aren’t your demands a bit too much?!”

David glanced at her with a lazy voice, “These are my minimum requirements for accepting a role. As long as you can meet these points, I won’t bother you about the pay.”

Lily didn’t expect David to say this.

Since the Gray family’s funds were tight, she originally thought that according to David’s worth, a role in a TV series should require at least seven and a half million.

On second thought, the terms David had put forward were already quite generous.

Not demanding high pay but only having requirements for the cooperating actors and crew would be a very considerate proposal.

A good TV series would not be determined by one or two big names, but by the strength of the entire crew.

The Gray family’s original team had either disbanded or left.

Plus, with Vivian Walters stirring up trouble with a group of actors, it would require highly competent actors, top teams, and directors with extraordinary sensibilities… Wait, directors with extraordinary sensibilities?

Seeing her concern, David said coldly, “As for the director, I heard from A4r. Collins that he will send his apprentice. I have no objections to Mr. Collins’ judgment, so you just need to settle the matters of the actors and the team, and then you can sign a contract with me.”

Lily thought for a moment and decided that she could only ask for help from that person.

“Alright, give me two days. I’ll make sure you’re satisfied..”
