Chapter 129
In Funtime Games, Ash had specially wrapped a silk scarf around her neck to avoid any unnecessary explanations about the wound on her neck.
Vanessa said, “The feedback from the small game that Team Two made last time was not bad. The profit was about two million dollars. I think we can continue to break through in this area.
Ash looked at the report that Vanessa had just brought in and asked, “Are you talking about the three to five–minute puzzle game that you mentioned last time? Is it online on the platform? Or did you make an app and release it on the app store?”
Vanessa took out her phone, clicked open a PowerPoint, and handed it to her. “I didn’t make an app. If we release it on the app store, it’ll take too long.
“At the moment, such a small game has to be updated in real–time. What’s more, it has to be difficult. It’s best if it can be a bit addictive. We originally wanted to insert advertisements in the middle, but that would more or less bring a bad experience to the users, so we still canceled this segment. The overall profits are not as good as expected.
“However, it should be one of the more outstanding games in recent years, but the popularity of this game will probably only last for a while. It will lose its popularity after a while.”
Vanessa had not been idle for the past few days. She was basically living in the company. Her originally fair and delicate skin had become pale.
Ash finished reading the report and closed the document. “For the time being, don’t focus on small games. People will get addicted to it for a moment, but if there are endless similar games, they will get tired of it.
“When others finish taking advantage of this wave of popularity, we’ll develop a small game with a similar core but completely different operating experience around next month. For now, our focus is still on Otome games and Massively Multiplayer Online Role–Playing Games.
“As for the Triple–A Game, there’s no need to worry too much for the time being. Those guys just need to report normally every week. The guy you recommended last time is indeed not bad, but he’s not good enough to lead the overall situation. I’ll put him in the position of the main planner. Do you think it’s appropriate?”
Ash respected Vanessa’s opinion. After all, that guy was recommended by Vanessa. No matter what the final decision was, Ash had to inform Vanessa.
Vanessa naturally had no objections. “It’s quite suitable for him to be the main planner. Previously, he was more experienced in this area. Then, who are you going to choose as the overall person in charge? There doesn’t seem to be a suitable candidate at Maida Park. Although you’re fully in charge, you can’t keep an eye on it all day long.”
Unknowingly, Ash thought of someone and felt that he could meet the standards.
Finn was very surprised to receive a call from Ash. Although he had always known about Ash, the two of them had only met once during an event.
Ash said, “Mr. Meyers, come to Riverstone if you’re free. I want to discuss a profitable business with you. I’ll reimburse all expenses.”
After Ash returned from Bonver, she especially went to find out more about Finn. She realized that Finn was more powerful than she had imagined. Whether it was his programming or management skills, they all met her requirements.
At this moment, Finn was at Riverstone. Coincidentally, he was sitting beside Calvert. He had put his phone on speaker, so Calvert could hear Ash’s words clearly.
Calvert’s face darkened instantly as he thought, ‘She’s still the same as ever. When she has resources, she doesn’t make use of them but gives up what’s close to her and seeks what’s far away. She will always treat others well‘

Finn really didn’t want to get involved. He silently mouthed to Calvert to ask him what he should do.
Unexpectedly, Calvert suddenly spoke up and raised his voice. “Why are you asking me when she’s inviting you? This is your business. Make your own decision.”
Ash was speechless.
It turned out that Finn was already in Riverstone and was with Calvert.
She thought that it made sense since Calvert would definitely not let go of such a suitable
person.
Therefore, Calvert was probably targeting his former classmate in the game event a few days ago.
However, Ash thought that Finn could take an offer from either of them. After all, this project was a joint collaboration between Ash and Calvert, and both sides had a cooperative relationship.
At this moment, Finn felt that he was sandwiched. He looked at Calvert and then at the phone that was still on the line. He sighed helplessly and said, “Ms. Turner, thank you for your invitation. I’ll think about this carefully and contact you later.”
After saying that, Finn decisively and quickly hung up the phone. He seemed to be using his actions to show Calvert that he took Calvert as his priority.
“Calvert, don’t you have a good relationship with your fiancee?” Finn felt like a fool when he asked this question.
He thought, ‘She’s already his fiancee. How can they not have a good relationship? They’re just having a fight. I can still remember the accident at the event that day when Calvert played the hero and saved the damsel in distress.‘
Calvert ignored him and sat back in front of his desk. “You can think about the Triple–A Game. If you want, the position of the main person in charge will be yours. The salary is the highest in the industry.”
Calvert’s words were always concise and clear.
When Finn heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled. “I really don’t care about the money I’ll get. It’s just that it’s rare to see you ask for help.”
“Vanessa will also be participating in the game planning this time. She is currently in Funtime Games, Ash’s company,” Calvert said after a few seconds of silence.
Finn, who originally had a nonchalant expression, immediately became serious. “Alright, I agree. But I have a request. The office needs to be in Funtime Games.”
“You can discuss this with Ash. It has nothing to do with me.” Calvert’s expression was still aloof.
Finn clicked his tongue and came to the table. He placed his hands on the table and begged, “Why do I need to ask for it when you can make it happen with just an order? Besides, I’m on your side. There has to be a reason for me to go over. I can’t be mistaken for a spy, right?”
Calvert said, “She has already taken the initiative to call you. You don’t need my help to make it happen.”
Finn’s eyes became playful since he believed that Calvert was jealous. He smiled. “Calvert, are you jealous? Do you really care about her? Then what happened between you two? Did you quarrel? You’re about to get married. Don’t quarrel all the time. What if the situation gets serious and Ash ignores you?”
Finn was still as talkative as ever.
What he said hit the nail on the head. Even if Ash and Calvert didn’t have any conflicts, they still wouldn’t get married. After all, what they had was just a contract, a game.
Calvert sat on the chair. He looked up and glared at Finn gloomily. “Your words are on par with what Dwayne said. If you’re

too idle, go find something to do. You may leave now.”
“Alright, then I’m leaving. Remember to help me mention this later. If it’s done, I’ll pack up and move back. Leave the Triple–A Game to me. Don’t worry.” Finn clenched his fist and punched Calvert’s shoulder lightly.
