Chapter 269 The Trade-Offs
"As for Shellyneo’s invitation, when I was talking to director Bieber about working with him, I mentioned that you're an actress... I didn't know he'd recommended you to Shellyneo, knowing that she needed a heroine."
"I just got the formal offer last night, and I made it clear to them that you might be working with Henry Kench, but they are willing to wait for the outcome of today's negotiations."
"If Director Henry arrogantly turns us sown today, we would have another choice."
"Yes, and we just ran into William..." Jack nodded.
William's pride should have been stamped on again for what Jack said.

"He dared to look at you like that. I was ready to hit him when I was in the office." Jack's voice was cold, and the thought of Henry's undisguised desire made him want to gouge his eyes.
"My agent is really good and took everything into consideration."
Jack did not say much. They had some luck that things went as they wanted. In the entertainment circle, it needed some luck to be popular.
"Let’s go to Shellyneo's studio now."
Anna nodded, but her eyes fixed on the distant. Things had changed so fast that it was hard for her to take it all in for a moment, perhaps because Jack had taken care of everything alone, so that she could leave Henry and went to Shellyneo.
Then she spoke slowly, "Jack, I thought I am qualified to stand beside you, but today I realize that my vision is far from yours. There are many things that you have considered, but I don't have a single thought about it."
"It is my responsibility to find more and better resources for you and take you to a higher stage, but whether you can shine on the stage is your ability." Jack explained, "I wanted to tell you about this, but with all the things piled up recently, and you have an important meeting to sign in person, so I don't want to distract you and affect your performance."
"The further you go, the more competitors you have, and the more opportunities you have to give up, the more you have to give up."
Anna took all these words into her heart. Jack was thinking about her all the time. In front of him, her cleverness was nothing at all. If he was not around one day, her world would become a mess, wouldn't it?
"You've taken good care of me."
Anna smiled. She really felt Jack's love for her.
Shellyneo was Henry’s half-sister, but their relationship was not good. After meeting Anna, she was very cordial, and hugged Anna, "I have been waiting for you for a long time. After watching your performance that time, I want to contact you, but I didn’t expect Bieber to recommend you to me."
Anna looked at Jack, who was smiling slightly.
"That's not a trade secret, is it?"
Jack nodded. "Of course not."
"I've already shot a part of this custom-made movie, but we failed to find the heroin, so... If Anna joins us, her scenes can be shot in the next month."
“Also, I would like Anna to shoot some of the pictures for later promotion.”
Jack agreed with her business philosophy. "We will cooperate with you."
After the deal was officially sealed, Anna asked about her collaboration with Bieber. "The guy who wrote the script was really cool. Who wrote it?"
It was not very often to meet such playwrights with such imagination and creativity...
She had a bold idea, but Jack smiled deeply and didn't answer, so she didn't ask any more questions.
Shellyneo took the collaboration so seriously that she had hired a lead fashion designer to tailor Anna's outfit. As she helped Anna take the measurements, she asked Jack curiously, "With great resources for Anna, aren't you going to let her go into singing performance or variety shows?"
"This is still under consideration..."
"I actually need a female singer for the finale of the film, and I think Anna would be a good choice."
Jack didn't answer, but smiled and picked up his coffee cup.
"It will be good for her to get into more areas, and I heard she had a great performance at Fashion Week last month."
"She's really hard working and she's really excellent, but I don't want to fill her life with work, and if she wants to do that, I'll do everything I can to help her."
Anna had finished measuring and came over to look at them. "Are you talking about me?" she asked.
"How do you know?" Jack motioned for her to sit next to him.
"A woman's intuition... Because you've been looking at me."
"Well, I'm always looking at you." With that, Jack got up and shook hands with Shellyeneo, ready to take Anna away.
"Mr. Freddie, please think about it."
Jack nodded politely and led Anna out of the room.
Only after the clothing group customized the clothes according to Anna's size, could they start shooting the film, so Anna had time to arrange her own things.
"We're going home tonight to make time for the rest of the trip."
"What did she say she was going to think about?" Anna tilted her head. Their conversation seemed mysterious.
"I'll tell you later." Jack looked at the time. "There are still a few hours before we go to the airport. Why don't we walk around? Is there anything you want to buy?"
"There's nothing I'd like to buy, but I'd be happy to walk around if you'd come with me."
Jack doted on Anna and took her hand tightly. Sometimes, she was just like a child. Just a little care and love would make her happy for a long time.
Sometimes, content with your lot is also a kind of happiness.
They got a phone call from Bill halfway, saying that he had something very important to report. Just as Jack was about to answer, Anna shook her head and shook her hand. "It's ok. I will walk around
myself.”
"No, I go with you."
"I would be in the nearby shopping mall, and I can't walk far. I finally have time to relax, just let me walk around? And I need to by some souvenirs for Lucy and Serena."
