Suzanne caught the cold edge in Jenson's tone and couldn't help but curl her lips into a frosty smile. "Alright," she replied flatly.
Before she could even hang up, Jenson tried to add, "Suzanne, it's great that you finally see things my way. So, from now on, we—"
"I'll sort out the script and send it to you," Suzanne interrupted, cutting him off before he could finish. Then, she hung up. If she had to listen to Jenson for another second, she was afraid she'd actually vomit.
Jenson frowned at his phone, a strange feeling settling in his chest. Why had Suzanne suddenly changed her attitude?
Still, the prospect of a new script made his lips curl into a smile. He was in a good mood now.
After hanging up, Suzanne stood up and grabbed a glass of water from the table, gulping it down to suppress the nausea rising in her throat.
So, Jenson and Seline thought they could mess with her? Well, they had another thing coming.
Suzanne immediately dialed Herman's number.
Herman, who had just stepped out of the shower, was surprised to see Suzanne calling so late at night. He answered, "Suzanne, is everything okay?"
With Austin away on business, he wondered if something had happened.
Suzanne set her glass down and got straight to the point. "Herman, I want the script for 'Despair.' Can I buy it from you?"
When she had helped Herman pick scripts before, Despair had immediately caught her eye. It was a rare gem.
The story of Despair revolved around a protagonist whose loved ones faced one tragedy after another—illnesses, accidents, and other misfortunes. As the protagonist struggled through these hardships, he was eventually dragged into an abyss of despair, unable to escape.
