\u201cAlright. Talk to you tonight.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After watching Larissa enter Starlight Media, Haskell\u2019s gaze hardened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCrispin, I want you to use the trafficker lead to find my brother within two weeks. You have access to all Palmer family resources, including my twenty\u2013four personal guards. Can you do it?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, sir,\u201d Crispin replied without hesitation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Haskell said little more. \u201cGood. I trust you.\u201d He then closed his eyes, a faint frown creasing his brow as he sank into thought.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Not long after Larissa returned to her office at Starlight Media, she received a call from Nightveil.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBoss, that actress, Tawny, does have a powerful figure backing her. I\u2019ve sent you the file.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGot it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa set aside her work and opened the file Nightveil had sent. The information largely confirmed what Wynn had told her. It seemed the scandalous stories about Wynn online were indeed fabrications orchestrated by this powerful man. Tawny had been forced to break up with Wynn, and Wynn had never cheated on her with his assistant. Now, this so\u2013called powerful figure had a life on his hands, and who knew how much more blood was\u00a0<\/p>\n
on them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa closed the file and dialed Gustave\u2019s number. \u201cGustave, I\u2019ve decided to cast Wynn as the male lead for \u2018Heaven\u2019s Will\u2018.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Gustave was clearly delighted. \u201cExcellent! I really think Wynn is the perfect fit. If you\u2019re on board, then it\u2019s settled!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After hanging up, Larissa leaned back in her chair, a relaxed smile on her face. Now, all she had to do was wait for Gale Entertainment to walk right into her trap, cast the actor she\u2019d set up for them, Fulbright, and watch them pour money into a series that would never see the light of day.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Over at Gale Entertainment, Damon received a call directly from Lucius, asking who had been cast as the male lead for their upcoming series, \u2018Soaring High\u2018.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe haven\u2019t decided yet. It\u2019s between Fulbright and Rigby.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWho does your daughter want?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n
11:16\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chapter 564.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lucius\u2019s question caught Damon off guard. He quickly replied, \u201cLivia is pushing for Rigby. Thinking Lucius might be calling to support his daughter, Damon asked nervously, \u201cMr. Lincoln, would you like me to follow Livia\u2019s recommendation and cast Rigby?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo,\u201d Lucius said. \u201cI\u2019m just reminding you to do your due diligence. Don\u2019t cast an actor who will prevent your show from being released.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI understand,\u201d Damon said quickly. \u201cMy son is already running background checks on both actors. I\u2019ll make sure nothing jeopardizes \u2018Soaring High\u2018!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf it does, Gale Entertainment can go down with it,\u201d Lucius warned before hanging up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just then, Damon\u2019s illegitimate son, Theon, entered the office with the information he had gathered on Fulbright and Rigby.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDad, look, I was right. We can\u2019t choose Rigby. He was a bully in school, even spent time in juvenile detention. After he debuted, he assaulted a director. Even though he paid to make it go away, people in the industry still avoid him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFulbright, on the other hand, has a sterling reputation. He\u2019s always polite and professional on set, never late, and most importantly, has never been involved in any scandals with female stars.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
