Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion Chapter 561 - 430 Two Women Face to Face2

Her golden hair was pulled back into a bun at the nape of her neck, revealing her fair, swan-like neck.

As she read the magazine, a strand of golden hair fell onto the page like a crescent moon dropping from the sky onto a tranquil lake, fishing up lines of poetic text.

"You're here."

Ivanka used her slender fingers to tuck back the strand of hair, walked over to the minibar with the magazine in hand, and poured a glass of iced tea for him.

"Firing Andrew Krar was a decision made at the noon eting, I was planning to tell you in the evening."

"It's okay, I was just curious."

Link pulled her into a seat at the bar.

After handing over the managent of Lionsgate Films to Ivanka, she had the final say in all matters, including personnel, investnt, acquisitions, etc.—he typically only offered personal opinions on film projects.

Ivanka told him there were three reasons for firing Andrew Krar and others.

The main reason was that after more than three years at Lionsgate Films, his performance in handling international business was poor; out of the fifteen films he brought in during that ti, half were at a loss, the rest had diocre box office returns, and his marketing in the international market was also not impressive.

Simply put, his business skills did not match the high treatnt he was currently enjoying.

The second reason involved rumors in the industry during the release of "Isolated Island Fright" and "Mr. Tree" that Link had personally ordered the purchase of the movie.

At that ti, the box office was not good, and many people used this to mock Link, which greatly affected both his personal reputation and Lionsgate's interests.

Afterward, Ivanka had people investigate who leaked the information.

Although it was not found out, the issue definitely had sothing to do with the international division because the film rights were acquired by Link directly instructing Andrew Krar over the phone.

Whether Andrew personally told the dia or first told soone else who then revealed it to the dia, the root was with Andrew.

He couldn't keep his mouth shut and failed to take responsibility; blaming the box office failure on Link, his boss, was his biggest mistake.

The third reason was, according to French tabloids, Andrew and others had misconduct in their private lives during the Cannes Film Festival, and not just this year.

In 2009, one of his assistants was taken away for questioning by local police during the Rotterdam Film Festival on suspicion of sexual harassnt. Although Andrew managed to smooth things over, incidents like these during their travels damaged the company's international image and had to be severely punished.

"That's good handling, I heard Andrew used to work under Harvey for a few years, and I was never very trusting of him."

Link comnted.

"Yes, that's also one of the reasons I fired him. For those I do not trust, even a slight doubt, I must dispose of them as early and as quickly as possible. The higher their position in the company, the greater the harm, and it also affects our work morale," Ivanka said with her leg crossed and speaking indifferently.

Link looked at her, observed her cold expression, her calm tone, and her decisive way of handling things. Had he not been her boyfriend, but a regular employee, he probably would have been swept out the door by now.

However, every ti he saw her maintaining that fierce and untouchable businesswoman facade, he felt compelled to do sothing to break her out of that state.

So he stood up, walked behind Ivanka, and gently kneaded her fragrant shoulders and the soft, perfud skin.

"Did you apply dication for Christine today?"

Ivanka leaned against his chest and chuckled softly.

"No, the muscle strain wasn't serious; a couple of days of rest should do it," Link replied.

After helping Christine apply ointnt last ti, the next day, just before his training was about to end, she ca back, claiming her assistant was absent, and asked him to help with the ointnt.

Link could only agree to do so.

Before applying the ointnt, Christine would ask him if he would take advantage of her injury to bully her. Link said he wouldn't, and Christine said she believed him and hoped he wouldn't let her down.

Link helped her apply the ointnt again, just like the first ti, only this ti his hands moved over a larger area, from her arms to shoulders, from her back to the flanks, along the bottom of the front chest, from her calves to buttocks, and waist.

While applying the ointnt and massaging, he did not speak, and neither did Christine; it was as if they were playing a ga of who talks first, loses.

After applying the ointnt, he went to the bathroom to wash his hands with his hands in his pockets. When he ca out, Christine had left, and there were so damp patches on the sofa where she had lain.

Today, Christine ca again as though addicted to the ointnt application. But then Emma Roberts also ca to train, which made it inconvenient to apply the ointnt, so Christine stayed in the training area for over an hour and then left with Emma.

Link had no objections to the two coming to train, but De La Hoya did not look pleased.

While Emma and Christine were there, he said nothing.

After the two left, Hoyle approached him with a sour tone, sarcastically saying that Link was living luxuriously, even bringing two beautiful movie starlets to boxing training.

Link explained that they ca of their own accord; he hadn't invited them.

Hoyle didn't believe him and cheekily suggested adding a bed in the changing room for Link's convenience to rest.

Link said he would talk to Emma and Christine and ask them not to co to Muscle Beach for training anymore.

Hoyle imdiately objected, saying if the two wanted to train, they should co, and there was no need to stop them; having two beauties around motivated everyone to train harder.

It was said that a few boxers saw the two as goddesses, and the highlight of their day was catching a glimpse of them in the training area.

Link asked why he would say such nonsense if he did not oppose Emma and Christine coming there to train?
