George reclined in his boss’s seat, his stare locked onto the computer screen.

A hazy silhouette moved elegantly under the moon’s glow on the display. The face was obscured, and the visual clarity was low, resembling a candid shot from security footage.
Nevertheless, George couldn’t shift his gaze, steadfastly avoiding blinking.
There are only two conditions. First, Giselle’s role must remain unaltered, and second, utilise this sum of 15 million to amplify the team’s workplace conditions. It shouldn’t be overly stringent. If it proves inadequate, return to me, and I’ll allocate further investment.”
Alan was startled.
Just like that? Is it that simpler
Shouldn’t he act like other bosses, tossing cash and setting up a lover for a small role?
He dared to ponder this but didn’t have the nerve to voice it. Still, since it was so simple, he wouldn’t refuse. “Alright. Mr. Tate, I will fulfil your requests.”
After hanging up. Alan couldn’t help but laugh. Fortune was definitely favouring him. The movie hadn’t even begun shooting, and he already didn’t need to stress about finances.
With 15 million dollars at his disposal, he could direct the movie exactly the way he wanted!
His excitement had barely lasted two minutes when a sharp ringtone broke the silence. He grabbed the phone and glanced at the screen, causing him to pause once again.
The display read: Mr. Burnett from Burnett Group.
What was going on today? Why were all these powerful people contacting me one after the other?
Clearing his throat, he responded, “Hello, Mr. Burnett.
The voice on the other end was just as icy. “Hmm.”
This situation felt oddly familiar.
“Mr. Burnett, how may I help you?”
Jordan’s tone was serious. “I understand you’re set to produce a new movie called ‘Silent Sea, right? The Burnett Group is very interested in this script and has chosen to invest 15 million dollars in it.”
Alan swallowed hard.
If he hadn’t known George and Jordan, wasn’t acquainted with their voices, and hadn’t saved their numbers, he might have thought he was dealing with a scam or a criminal group.
In the past, when searching for movie investors, he had to plead and almost beg, practically on his knees with his script in hand. Even with grand promises, they often chose not to invest.
Now, someone was suddenly keen to invest, and it all felt unreal.

Had the wealthy suddenly become more generous?

“Thank you. Mr. Burnett. I was wondering if you have any other requests. Since we’re still in the pre- production stage, we can plan accordingly.
Anthony’s voice was firm. “I have two conditions. First, Giselle’s role must stay the same, and second, use these funds to make sure the set environment is comfortable and not too harsh. If it’s not enough, contact me, and I’ll add more.”
When the call ended, Alan was completely stunned.
Why did it feel like déjà vu? I just got the same request from both powerful men.
Both demanded that Milly play Giselle, and no one else.
l’ait a moment…
Milly Burnett… is her surname Burnett?
The recently revealed heiress of the Burnett Group also had this name…
So, the Burnett Group is backing Milly!
Previously, considering Milly’s character, she would have merely left the scene. She tended to shy away from disagreements and definitely didn’t want to get caught up in such circumstances.
Uh–oh, what if she sees me beating up her classmates? Wouldn’t that give her a bad impression of me?
