Even though Ash had a small 'talk' with his stepbrother but his stepbrother didn't bother him during his private time these two days. Honestly, Ash didn't even think about it much he was already too busy with his script.
But he did receive reports about the situation in the company from Serena. He was reminded by Serena that he is going to be really busy when goes back to the company.
He was informed by Serena that there was an uproar in Disney after reading his script.
Disney was considered the biggest movie studio in his last life but in this world, they were barely considered a part of the big six because in this world there weren't movies like
Serena told Ash that Disney was very optimistic about his script and that the Disney head himself will come to Starline on the 2nd of June to buy the
Serena also told him that they will conclude the new contract with Cynthia and the company on the same day too. Ash was very optimistic about Cynthia and was impressed by her talent and morals so Ash wanted to be present when they sign a new contract and definitely didn't want to lose her.
June 2nd Starline headquarters:-
Ash arrived early in the company so he went to Serena's office and wait for her to arrive. In the office, a woman asked him if needed anything. Ash didn't recognize her so he asked her 'who she was?' and it turned out that she was Serena's new secretary, Lilia. When Ash somehow felt relieved in his heart he didn't understand this feeling but he didn't think about it much.
Soon Serena arrived in her office. When she saw Ash waiting for her in her office she was surprised so she asked him, "You arrived earlier today?"
"I had nothing else to do so I came early. Anyway, what is the schedule for today?
"That's why I told you to hire yourself a trustworthy secretary."
"Don't you already have one? She can prepare my schedule too I will pay her extra."
"No, she is my secretary. More workload will reduce her efficiency."
"Anyway, Forget that I came here today to give you this," Ash handed a thick file to Serena.
Serena took the file and started reading it. After reading the first page Serena closed the file and looked at Ash and said, "Ash you are the most amazing and brilliant man among your peers. You have a great talent for scriptwriting but why are you so hellbent on directing a movie by yourself."
"Because it's a dream of mine to become a great director from a long time ago."
"You are still young and you can always fulfill that dream of yours once the company becomes a little more stable."
"I already told you we will discuss this later once you read my script."
"Even with just one page, I can say that it is going to be a good script and you have already proven yourself with
"It's because I know how those characters will look like once they appear on the screen. It's all in my mind scene by scene. That is why I am the best person to direct my movies."
"Ash writing a character and directing it are two completely different things. So I say you can write the scripts and be the producer and we can hire a different director."
"Can't you show a little bit of confidence in me?"
Serena looked at Ash who was firm on his decision so she decided to give up on it for now. so she said to Ash, "Let's talk about it later it's time to meet miss Cynthia."
Ash nodded at her in agreement so they went toward the conference room.
Cynthia and Nancy were already waiting in the conference room. When Ash and Serena arrived in the conference room Cynthia stood up at her place to meet them.
Ash extended his hand toward Cynthia and said, "It's a pleasure to finally meet you miss Cynthia."
"The pleasure is all mine," Cynthia sook her hand with Ash, and then she sooks her hand with Serena too. They exchanged their greetings with Nancy too.
Ash sat on the main chair and Serena sat across the Cynthia and Nancy. Ash took the initiative and started the meeting by saying, "Before we started the discussion," Ash looked at Cynthian and said, "I would like to apologize to you as the owner of this company. Not only you were abandoned at the moment of your crisis but the crisis itself was caused by the company. I can't change the past but I can promise you one thing this company will never abandon another innocent agent ever again."
Cynthia remained silent at Ash's words. She moment to comprehend her feelings then she exhaled a deep breath and said, "Thanks, It means a lot to me."
During the last six months, Cynthia felt so depressed that her mind was filled with nothing but dark thoughts. She was able to pass through her dark times because she was too attached to her dreams that she couldn't give up. Not only did she survive her dark times but she improved by working hard at the acting school.
After Cynthia accepted their apology the meeting formally started. Serena had prepared a top-class contract for Cynthia but Nancy wanted to add some more terms to favor Cynthia in the contract. Even though Cynthia wanted to accept the terms as they were. But Nancy didn't give her that chance. Even though Serena was reluctant but in the end, she had to agree.
Ash was genuinely surprised by Nancy's dedication to artists under her care and her convincing. So after the meeting, both parties signed the new contract and agreed to have good cooperation.
After the meeting, Ash told Serena to give Nancy a promotion and a rise in paycheck to which Serena agreed. And Serena also reminded him about the meeting with Disney's head in the evening.
