Chapter 230:

In a home in San Diego, California, a couple was soundly sleeping in their bedroom. For some reason, they had a camera in their bedroom, and it was recording everything going on in the room.

The camera screen also displayed the time: [1:27:26 AM]

Sleeping on the right was what possibly seemed like a young man, although covered in sheets, thus making it hard to confirm. And beside him was a young woman. It was quite evident they were a couple.

Just then, when the clock hits the 30th second of the 27th minute past 1 am, someone suddenly sits up on the bed, and it’s the young woman. She’s wearing a white top, and most of her face is covered with her hair, making it impossible to discern her expression.

She continues to sit for the next few seconds and then slowly removes the sheet over her legs. Moving her legs, she then gets up from the bed and stares at the wall with her head slightly lowered. Her upper body is slowly moving back and forth, and her every action seems as if someone else is moving her body.

After a few more seconds, she turns around and stares at the other person on the bed, whose back is turned against her.

[1:27:57 AM]

The white sheet over the other person slowly slithers away on its own, revealing that it is indeed a young man asleep.

The young woman continues to stare at him for some time and then slowly turns her body sideways and walks around the bed to get to his side. Her face is still half-covered with her hair, making it hard to see her eyes and expression.

Once she reaches over to the young man’s side, she stands near him and continues to stare for the next two hours.

Around [3:14:37 AM]

The woman suddenly turns, walks back around the bed, and heads out through the open bedroom door. The door is close to her side of the bed.

After she leaves into the dark, seconds slowly pass.

[3:14:32 AM]

[3:14:51 AM]

[3:15:07 AM]

[3:15:08 AM]

“Ahh!!!!!!!!!!!”

A sudden blood-curdling scream resounds throughout the house, instantly waking up the man from his sleep. He looks to the side for the young woman, and not finding her on the bed, he jumps from the bed and runs out of the room into the dark.

Time once again continues to trickle away.

“We will have to,” June nodded, “But first, I want us to have a screening of this movie with Will.”

“Will Evans?” Depp and Jannett raised their eyebrows.

Will Evans was now a big name in Hollywood after giving back-to-back hits ever since his debut, and his studio, Dream Vision, was growing exponentially every passing season.

If Will liked movies, their career might take a one-eighty-degree turn since he was now dubbed as the Star-Maker of Hollywood. But then, they also wouldn’t betray June since she was the one who even brought them this opportunity and would continue to be a part of her company.

“I will talk to Will,” June’s words halted their train of thoughts, “For now, let’s go out and have fun. The dinner is on me.”

“Yay!” Jannett smiled.

June pulled out her phone and dialled her agent’s number.

“John, arrange a meeting with Emilia. The earlier, the better. And join us for dinner, we’re going to have some steak.”

...

Will was sitting in his office, reading through a big stack of papers. This was the script of [The Devil Meets Prada].

“Hm, looks good.” He whispered to himself. This was going to be one of his next projects, although it wasn’t the most pressing issue.

Just then, he heard a knock on his door, and someone stepped in. It was Jeffery.

Will raised his head and saw a faint expression of worry on his face.

“What happened?” Will asked.

“...What happened?” Jeffery stared at him, and after taking a seat, he said, “Shouldn’t I be the one asking you what happened? What actually happened in the meeting at Foxstar? I just got to know Colt has fired James, and they have also informed me that they won’t distribute any more of our movies.”

Will frowned, “Did he really say that?”

“Yeah,” Jeffery nodded, “What actually happened in the meeting?”

“Well, he’s lying.”

“What do you mean?”

“It’s not he who’s rejecting us, it’s we who won’t have any more deals with Foxstar.”

“Why?” Jeffery frowned, “What did he actually say? Should I give a call to his dad? He needs to teach his son a lesson.”

Will shook his head, “No, I just realised it’s time we have our own distribution channel.”

Jeffery stared at Will, and a smile slowly formed on his face as the worry began to wash away.

“It’s about time.”
