Chapter 310: I Will Be There
โLeave the casting to me, Mr. Zayn. Just focus on working with the original author to finalize the script quickly,โ Olivia said, patting Zayn on the shoulder.
Zayn sighed, realizing there was no better option. Starlit Entertainment had openly issued a widespread ban on Olivia within the industry. Other talent agencies, wary of such a powerful opponent, dared not risk offending them for the sake of a rising star like Olivia.
Olivia jotted down the key roles, mapping out her casting direction. Though most agencies avoided trouble with Starlit Entertainment, she knew one company that wouldnโt be intimidated. Without hesitation, she dialed a number.
The moment the call connected, Vanceโs enthusiastic voice rang out. โOlivia! Oh my dearest Olivia!โ The tremor in his voice made Olivia cringe. โCut it out. Iโve got business to discuss.โ
โBusiness? Iโm all ears!โ Vance declared eagerly.
โIโm planning to produce a movieโฆโ
โHow much? Iโm investing!โ Vance interrupted without waiting for further details.
Olivia rubbed her temple. โForget the money. I just want to borrow a couple of your actors.โ By โborrow,โ she meant without any payment involved. She had zero guilt about tapping into the Wilson familyโs resources.
โWho do you want?โ Vance asked curiously.
โLouis,โ Olivia replied. Louis, trained in martial artsโmostly showy techniques but visually impressiveโwould fit perfectly as the female leadโs brother.
โNo problem! Who else?โ
โEugene,โ Olivia added. Though unfamiliar with Eugeneโs acting, his striking appearance made him the perfect male lead for โLegacy of the Dynasty.โ The role required a mostly silent, stoic presence, and Eugeneโs looks alone would command attention.
โWait, who?โ Vanceโs voice faltered.
โEugene.โ
Vance fell silent for a long moment. Louis is manageable, but Eugene? Vance wasnโt sure he could handle that request. He never expected Olivia to ask for his brotherโs secret identity.
โWellโฆcan I get back to you on that?โ Vance said cautiously, feeling cornered.
โSure,โ Olivia agreed calmly.
Hanging up, Vance agonized over how to break the news to Alexander. How do I tell Alex that his wife wants his secret identity to star in a movie for free?
Meanwhile, Olivia sent Eugene a direct text. โIโm producing a new movie and think thereโs a role perfectly suited to your vibe. Interested?โ
On a private jet, Alexander glanced at the message, raising an eyebrow. Perfectly suited to my vibe? โWhenโs the shoot?โ he replied.
โThe scriptโs nearly ready. We should start in a few days. If youโre free the day after tomorrow, come check it out.โ
Alexander did a quick calculation. A round trip to Solara would take at least fifteen hours, nearly a full day.
โSend me the address. Iโll be there.โ
After sending the text, Alexander stood abruptly. Henry, who had been watching the cabin crew prepare for departure, was taken aback. โMr. Wilson, weโre about to take off. Would you like to be seated to avoid turbulence?โ
โCancel the flight,โ Alexander said calmly.
Henry blinked, confused. โCancel?โ
