The Cherished Wife

Chapter 200

Ronald noticed Xavier’s hesitation and offered a solution. “Here’s what we’ll do. I’ll have my

assistant give you the script. You can take it back and discuss it with Ms. Shaw. But Mr. Harris, you should also know that Ms. Shaw probably offended someone high up, which is why everyone is attacking her.

“From what I understand, her endorsements and projects have been canceled, and her current agency is giving her the cold shoulder. The only way to resolve this is for her to bounce back by taking on a TV show.

“By staying in the public eye and producing new work, the previous issues will eventually fade away.” Xavier’s expression darkened. He knew the impact of Winter’s situation. Despite his reluctance, he had come to Charles as Joseph had suggested. He understood that only Charles could help.

“Alright. I’ll take the script back and discuss it with Winter. I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.”

“I look forward to hearing good news from you, Mr. Harris,” Ronald said, closing the project folder and handing Xavier part of the script. “I hope the news will be positive.”

Xavier left the Collosus Group building, where Winter was anxiously waiting. She had insisted on coming along despite Xavier’s objections. As Xavier approached, she rolled down the car window and asked, Xavier, how did it go? Did Charles agree to help?”

Seeing Winter’s anxious gesture from a distance, Xavier felt a pang of discomfort but suppressed it. He walked over and handed her the script.

Winter looked at the script in surprise. “What’s this for? I asked if Charles agreed to help?” She knew that Charles did not have a good impression of her.

Xavier frowned. “Don’t you see what this is? His tone was sharp..

Winter sensed his irritation but said nothing. She brightened when she saw the script. “Is this for me? From Charles?”

“Can you stop saying ‘Charles‘ every second?” Xavier snapped, growing impatient. “You know your situation. He didn’t explicitly agree to help but gave me this script and asked if you’d take the role.”

“Of course! I’ll take it!” Winter agreed without hesitation, not even looking at the script. She knew that since the scandal broke, she had lost many endorsements and offers. Her company had sidelined her, and if this continued, she would disappear from the public eye, which was unacceptable to her.

Winter craved the spotlight and enjoyed being the center of attention.

“This is my big chance to make a comeback. But who are my co–stars?” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

“I don’t know,” Xavier replied, frowning. “I don’t understand your industry. His assistant just said that the lead roles have been cast, but they’re still looking for the second female lead.

He asked if you’re interested and gave me time to consider. If you agree, you can audition, though it’s just a formality. If you accept, the role is yours.”
