Chapter 1872
The companys automatic door slid open, causing Marlowe and the others to instinctively turn towards the source of the sound.
Everyone looked surprised upon seeing Ariana.
Their chat immediately ended, and they gathered around Ariana, each of them wearing a look of concern.
Why are you here so early, Ariana? You should rest a bit more at home.
Although we miss you and want you back here with us, you need to prioritize your health, Ariana.
Ariana, I was out shopping with a friend and found a nice cushion with lumbar support.
I got it for you so that way your back wont get too tired as you work.
Are you sure you can work now, Ariana? Please dont push yourself too hard.
Ariana was really touched by the support and concern shown by her co- workers.
Thank you all for your concern. Im feeling much better now.
The doctor said it was okay for me to return to work, she said.
Hearing that, the others were relieved, and they chatted for a bit before they returned to their tasks.
Tom was preparing to release a solo album, and there were many preparations to be made.
Ariana was currently in a meeting to discuss and arrange for the release of the album.
Once the meeting was concluded, Ariana walked out of the conference room and saw Marlowe deeply engrossed in analyzing a classic blockbuster movie at her desk.
She was completely unaware of Arianas presence.
Ariana suddenly recalled the information in Marlowes files.
Marlowe had graduated with top grades in both theoretical and practical courses.
Given her outstanding performance, one would think Marlowe had a bright future ahead.
The reason for this was quite simple.
The entertainment industry was filled with competition.
Many newcomers were willing to sell their bodies to big directors to get the roles they wanted.
Marlowe, however, preferred to take on minor roles rather than compromise.
Plus, she hadnt had much luck, so she hadnt had an opportunity to work with a major platform or secure good resources.
Ariana hadnt known Marlowe for long, but she could see that Marlowe was a diligent and hardworking young woman, and she wanted to help her secure better resources.
With this in mind, Ariana returned to her office to check her available film and television resources.
However, having just returned to the company, Ariana was lacking in resources.
After giving Marlowes qualifications much consideration, she finally selected a short script for her. The script was a light and feel-good story, a genre that was currently popular in the entertainment industry.
It would give Marlowe the much -needed chance to make a name for herself.
Ariana walked over to Marlowe with the script.
Before Marlowe could say anything, Ariana handed her the script and explained her thoughts.
Marlowe flipped through the script, unsure of how to react.
Ariana seemed to read her mind and said, This script might seem shallow and melodramatic, but its genre is quite popular right now.
But if you dont want to act in this type of role, you could just wait for another opportunity.
However, to Arianas surprise, Marlowes eyes lit up, and she immediately said, I can do it! Ariana was momentarily caught off guard by Marlowes excitement.
She thought she might have misheard Marlowe, so she asked again, Are you really willing to take the role? If youre not, you can tell me.
