She didn't shy away from Jackson and hit the answer button. "Kaitlyn? What's going on?" she asked, turning around.
Jackson suddenly tensed up, jumped to his feet, and grabbed her arm. Clara was a little taken aback but just raised an eyebrow at him.
Jackson took her phone, pressed the speaker button, and Kaitlyn's voice filled the room.
"The script's ready. I'll email it to you. Make sure you check it out. Clara, have you ever thought about investing in some promising actors? The entertainment industry is more lucrative than corporate work. My studio needs to grow. You'd fund and pick the talent, and I'll train them. Half the studio would be yours."
Kaitlyn had left her old company two years ago, but her studio only got fully staffed six months back. They were handling small projects, making money but lacking fame. Her studio had just a few artists, all struggling to break into the big leagues. If they could launch a top-tier star, the whole place would soar.
Clara knew Kaitlyn was skilled and driven.
She took a breath. "Alright, if you have any potential signings, show me first. We'll meet when I have time."
Kaitlyn laughed lightly on the other end. "Great, I've been looking forward to working with you."
Clara hung up and heard Jackson ask, "You know Kaitlyn?"
