I opened my eyes and gave him a puzzled look.
"Look, although most jewelry is bought by men for women, the choice is in the hands of women. If you find a male celebrity to be your ambassador, his female fans might end up buying them. Even if they are not fans, they will still be attracted out of curiosity. Do you understand the concept of opposites attract?”
Xander was in high spirits when he spoke. His handsome face was slightly blushed, making him look even more dazzling.
He was right! Who said that jewelry must be represented by only women? There were even male celebrities who promoted sanitary pads now.
Just like he said, most of the fans who religiously follow celebrities were women. If Xander, a celebrity with more than sixty million fans, were to be the ambassador, the impact would definitely be extraordinary.
Why should I go through the trouble of looking for an international model if I already had a good candidate i n front of me?
"Wandy, it is not my place to criticize you, but you are a bit simple minded. You need a wise and visionary man like me at your side to guide you. I heard that you are going through a divorce. After you get divorced, we
can be together. Let us make a name for ourselves in the entertainment industry together. We will definitely thrive."
"Shoo, shoo, shoo. Cut the crap. Do not leave just yet. I will get Heidi to draft the contract immediately. We will sign the contract now."
I quickly got up. My initial frustration was gone, and I felt much more at ease.
However, Xander was unhappy. He put his arms around my shoulder and said, "Why the rush to sign the contract now? I promise you that I will not run away. Have dinner with me first. After eating takeout o n the mountain for a month, I feel like I am dying in need of a good meal."
"Alright, considering that you have helped me, I will treat you to a big meal today."
After all, Xander was part of the company, so there was really no rush. I called Cecilia, and the three of us went to the most expensive seafood restaurant in Salt City for dinner.
Xander had a great personality and was easy to talk t o. Cecilia also enjoyed messing around with him, so the dinner only ended late at night. I had not felt this happy for a long time.
All the stress that I had been feeling was swept away.
Maybe I should have let it go long ago.
