Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 871 Couldn't Help but Hugged Selena
The space between her eyebrows scrunched up as she yanked out the document and shot a look at Ronald. "Ronald, Ann, what the heck is this?" Betty Anderson. Selena felt like she knew that name, and the face too.
Betty was the one who got her spot snatched by Aria. Her hands were messed up, and back then, Selena promised her that if she could bring out some deep emotions with Sophia, she'd replace the best doc to fix her hands. Betty was getting treatment now, but when did she sign with S.M Corporation? Selena was just replaceing out.
Ronald stood up. "Ms. Fair, this ain't on Ann. I went ahead and signed her."
Selena asked, "Why?"
Ronald was the top dog agent and wouldn't just sign anyone. If he noticed Betty, she had to be something special.
Ronald laid it out, "She's tough, strong, gorgeous, a natural actress, and even more talented than Sophia. Sophia's still got some rough edges, but Betty's got that raw talent. She told me she wanted to act, and when I interviewed her, she nailed it."
When Selena signed Ronald, she promised not to mess with his signings, trusting his gut.
Ronald added, "Ms. Fair, from what I know, Nathan sticks around her not out of guilt, but 'cause he likes her."
Selena raised an eyebrow, catching Ronald's drift.
Betty had a knack for acting. If she was set on it, she'd get famous no matter where she signed.
Plus, with her beef with the White Family, if Nathan really liked her, he might cut S.M Corporation some slack for her. This was getting juicy.
Selena chuckled, glancing over the document again.
Betty was clean. After losing her spot, she never stopped calling out Aria. If she got famous, Aria would be toast.
Selena said, "She's the one. How long till her hands are good?"
Ronald replied, "Two months. Right now, she just can't lift heavy stuff. And Ms. Fair, don't you think one of the roles Mr. Smith offered is perfect for her?"
Ronald pointed to the mermaid role. "Betty's a natural in the water, and this role doesn't need much hand use."
Selena didn't expect Ronald to think this far ahead. He'd been eyeing Betty for a while.
Selena put down the document. "Betty it is."
So, the three spots were locked in: Austin, Sophia, Betty.
Selena had no clue how big this decision was.
In the next decade, these three would almost sweep all the Best Actor and Best Actress awards.
The meeting left everyone wiped out.
At 11 PM, after locking in the spots, Sophia, Austin, and Betty were called to the office.
Three contracts were laid out in front of them. Once they signed, the roles were theirs.
Austin was the first to show up. He was getting roasted online, but every star goes through that. He was just feeling a bit down.
Seeing the contract, shock flashed in his eyes, thinking he was dreaming. "Ms. Fair, this is?"
Selena sat in her chair, calm as ever. "Sign it. It's your compensation. Your movie shoots first. Once you sign, you gotta head to Vistalia."
Austin's eyes teared up with excitement, clutching the contract. He never thought he'd get a shot at a Hollywood role.
Ford's endorsement was nothing compared to this, a whole different league!
Austin tossed the contract aside and hugged Selena. "Ms. Fair, you're the best!"
Selena stayed quiet. Realizing what was happening, she quickly pushed him away. "If your fans see this, they'll curse me out. Austin, I told you, S.M Corporation never forgets those who stick with it in tough times. Your ticket's already bought. Once you sign, you join the crew."
Austin felt a bit down, looking at her calm, beautiful face, gripping the pen tight. "I get it. I won't let you down."
He was now a top star with millions of fans, always greeted with screams.
If he starred in this movie, his popularity would skyrocket, and his international fame would soar. Stuff like getting set up for endorsements would just make fans blame the other company, not him.
"Austin, you've never let me down." Selena's gaze was pure. She wasn't tuned into relationships, so she missed the fire in Austin's eyes.
