Return, My Love: Wooing the Neglected Ex-Wife

Chapter 671:

“I know you will. I’ve always believed in you, Selma.” Selma smiled warmly.

“Thank you, Fannie. By the way, about the web series Mr. Lee mentioned…”

Fannie paused, her eyes hidden behind sunglasses. A heaviness settled in her chest as she thought about Jett and the tension between them.

Selma continued, her voice tentative, “I’ve read the script, and I really like it. Plus, it’s the lead role.”

Seeing Fannie’s lack of immediate reaction, Selma pressed on.

“Fannie, you know I’m struggling financially lately. I need to make more money. My mom’s in the hospital, and my brother’s tuition is due…”

“I know,” Fannie replied reluctantly. “Alright, go ahead and take it. Your schedules don’t conflict anyway.”

Selma’s worried expression softened into a wide smile as she hugged Fannie.

“Thank you, Fannie. You’re the best!”

At the film set, both Fannie and Selma knew the ropes.

Hundreds of films were shot at this location every year. The site served as the backdrop for a variety of movie genres—historical dramas, contemporary series, war films, and idol dramas. In fact, about eighty percent of the country’s domestic film and television productions were filmed here.

Fannie and Selma passed by a crowded filming crew, making it impossible to see the actors on set.

“Fannie, I heard a veteran actor is among the cast in that crew. Let’s take a look.”

Fannie agreed, and Selma eagerly pulled her along. Meeting a respected actor would be a great opportunity to get noticed and build connections.

“Stop. What is this? Now even people with glaring plastic surgery can be on TV? She’s hired to model for us, not to endorse some bizarre face enhancement procedure!” The voice from the group made Fannie stop in her tracks.

Selma stood on tiptoe to get a better view.

“Hey, isn’t that Mr. Kelly?”

Fannie didn’t need to stand on tiptoe to confirm. Sitting in front of the monitor were two people: the director and Bobby. Sporting an aquamarine shirt and black spectacles, Bobby chewed gum while nitpicking at the actress on the monitor.noveldrama

Admittedly, the actress did show noticeable signs of excessive cosmetic surgery. Unfortunately, as the executive producer, Bobby’s opinion could influence the entire production.

Smiling apologetically, the director said, “I’ll get another model right away, Mr. Kelly.”

“Find someone photogenic, not these manufactured faces.”

“Got it!”

Fannie couldn’t stand hearing more of Bobby’s obnoxious remarks. She turned to Selma and said, “We’d better get going. Director White is waiting for you.”

“What? But I haven’t found that veteran actor yet. Oh, there he is!”

Selma dashed toward the famous actor like a fangirl.

Bobby turned around, hearing Selma’s voice, and immediately followed the direction she came from. His eyes locked onto Fannie as if drawn by some magnetic force.
