The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 707

"The Saint Di endorsement is really still mine?" Winter asked.

"Why would I lie to you? Mr. Wells himself just called and wants you to swing by the office tomorrow. You've missed out on a bunch of work with all the drama lately. I mean, come on. Royal Star Entertainment wouldn't just ignore you. They shelled out big bucks to bring you on board!"

Winter's face clouded over for a moment, but she kept quiet. "What's the second thing?"

"Oh, the second thing is about that movie, Unchallenged Dominion—you've heard of it, right?"

"Unchallenged Dominion? The one Taylor Williams wrote? It’s funded by Royal Star Entertainment, and I think Hank Lopez is directing, right? They haven't picked the cast yet, have they? I heard they're scouting talent nationwide."

"Well, that's the official line, but Mr. Wells just rang me up and dropped a bombshell. He wants you to play the role of Saphronia, the second lead."

"For real?" Winter's eyes lit up, and she was suddenly all fired up. She tossed aside her blanket and leaped out of bed, flicking on the light, plopping down at her makeup table, and gazing into the mirror. "Jane, you're not pulling my leg, are you?"

"Why on earth would I do that? How would that benefit me? Sure, it's 'just' the second lead, but this is a blockbuster we're talking about. Nail this movie, and when it hits the screens, who will care about those rumors? You'll be back on top, showing all the naysayers they bet on the wrong horse."

"Right! Okay, that's awesome. Jane, I owe you one!"
