Chapter 9 Joining a New Drama
When Nina was speechless, Julian turned away with a stern look. Nina cursed while looking at his receding figure. It was fate? He must have forgotten they were already divorced.
Emelia had been tortured by him before. Nina didn’t think she would be with him again for the so-called fate.
In Viggo’s office, after greeting each other, Viggo asked tentatively, “Just now, Mr. Hughes was here. Have you met him?”
He knew Emelia used to be Julian’s wife, so he asked.
Emelia nodded calmly. “Yes.”
Viggo thought for a moment and added, “He came to sign a contract with me earlier. We’ve been planning a period drama recently. He’s the sponsor.”
Emelia asked straightforwardly with a smile, “Do you want me to be the scriptwriter for this drama?”
If not, Viggo didn’t need to deliberately tell her why Julian had been here earlier.
Viggo also smiled. “Since you’ve guessed it right, I’ll go straight to the point. If you are unwilling, I’ll let another scriptwriter join this project.”
He added, “But I personally believe you’re the perfect candidate fore this drama. It’s a period drama for a heroine. You are mature and sensible, with abundant life experiences. Besides, your words could always touch the audience. If the drama is successful, you’ll also be famous.”
Emelia chuckled and said, “Thank you for your compliment, Mr. Johansen. In fact, I will accept it. It’s my job. I won’t mix it with my personal life.”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Julian was only a stranger to her now. She wouldn’t give up on a career opportunity for a stranger.
She had been a scriptwriter for several dramas in the past few years, but not many people knew her in this business. If she could make a drama successful, it would mean real success in her career.
“That’s good.” Viggo looked at her with praise.
A year ago, when they met, Emelia looked haggard and painful because of her marriage without love. However, he could tell her eyes were now full of self-confidence and spirit.
For her self-confidence and calmness after she had met Julian, Viggo believed that she could handle any problems occurred when meeting Julian in the future.
Viggo gave a copy of the project plan of the drama to Emelia. The latter browsed it and asked, “Is the female leading role going to be Yvonne Sullivan?”
Emelia didn’t mind Yvonne that much. However, she needed to know who the leading role would be as the scriptwriter. In that case, she would have a rough image when writing.
Besides, after Julian had set up the film and television department in the Hughes Group, Yvonne was always the female leading role. Hence, Emelia thought she would still be the leading role in this drama.
“Yvonne Sullivan hasn’t been in the show biz for a long time,” Viggo answered. In hesitation, he explained, “It’s said she’s ready to marry into the Hughes family.”
Emelia smiled in self-mockery, “I see.”
She had divorced Julian for a year. Julian should marry Yvonne soon.
It was nice, though. In this case, she didn’t need to meet Yvonne when working on this drama, so there wouldn’t be much awkwardness or unnecessary troubles.
