Chapter 355

As soon as William Turner finished speaking, Chloe Grace’s smile grew even more restrained. “Then I guess we don’t have a deal. This script belongs to Starcrest Media, and the lead male role is going to Marcus Stanton, period. If you don’t like it, I’ll just find another investor.” William stared at her. Her face was sharp and stunning, eyes flashing with something thoughtful. The director quickly caught the tension in the air and had Marcus go inside for the audition, wisely leaving the two of them alone. Only then did William really start sizing her up, this time with a man’s gaze on a woman. Today, she wore a tailored office outfit—cream slacks, crisp white blouse, and a beige vest blazer. Her long hair was neatly tied back, makeup sharp and striking. She looked like she meant business. Marcus looked like a harmless puppy next to her. William suddenly thought of an old photo at home—a girl with waist-long hair in a spaghetti strap dress, quiet and sweet. Definitely not this version.
