President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 503

But Isaac was still hurt by Laura’s merciless resolution.

Yet, he couldn’t do anything about it. After all, Laura had made it very clear from the outset.

Thinking of this, despite his pain, Isaac tried to change the subject.

“How is your cold?”

He consoled himself by thinking that she wouldn’t forbid him to care about her just as a friend.

Laura furrowed her brows. She preferred not to tell Isaac the whole story.

After all, this concerned Max and her private affairs.

She didn’t want to expose her secrets out in the open.

Seeing that Laura was a little torn, Isaac decided not to press her. To gloss this over, he continued, “You’ll be fine. Do you have any plans for work?”

Laura cast an indifferent glance at Isaac and said, “You should ask Maria about this.”

When her name was mentioned, Maria let out a surprised yelp and then realized what they were talking about.

She coughed and thought for moments before answering, “After Laura recovers, I plan to let her continue with her previous work. She’ll shoot a new TV play. Thanks to your help, Laura now has some great opportunities.”

Isaac was still not used to seeing Maria being so polite to him.

He felt a little resigned, but he couldn’t say anything about it.

Everyone knew Laura had drawn a clear distinction between public and private interests. As her agent and bestie, Maria certainly wouldn’t make things difficult for her. Thus, Isaac couldn’t complain about this.

However…

Isaac still felt pained when he saw Laura’s aloof face.

Yet, he didn’t get to show his pain.

Looking at Laura with a calm expression, Isaac asked in a gentle voice, “Which TV play? Who’s the director?”

Maria checked her phone and said seriously, “It’s called No Coming Back by Peter Scott.”

“Peter Scott? This is the story?”

Isaac frowned, looking a little awkward.

Maria noticed his expression and asked, “What?”

Isaac shook his head. Somewhat embarrassed, he said, “The story for the show is OK. It’s a story set in ancient times that has become a hit online. It is about how a girl grew into a powerful woman in a fictional dynasty. For Laura, this part could be challenging. It can be the one play that alters her image.”

Laura and Maria looked at each other and nodded.

Isaac was right about this.

Before, Laura had played female leads in many modern love stories, which was relatively easy. Although she had won the academy award for best actress, she still felt she wasn’t worthy of the honor.

It was not that her acting skills were not good.

The issue was that when she made her debut, there were no good TV scripts. She had no chance to display her best acting skills no matter how hard she tried.

Later, though her acting skills had improved a lot, many great actors and actresses made their comebacks. Outshone by them, Laura did not stand out.

Because of this, though Laura rarely had scandals and was a good actress, she did not attract much attention online.
