“Maria, I already did my best. But I really can't find a suitable candidate. I have contacted several A-listers, including Lyndsey, but all of them have a full schedule.”

Hearing this, Maria frowned.

Yeez Entertainment was now one of the giants in the entertainment circle, and its artists were all famous and capable in the industry. Therefore, Maria wasn't convinced that they could not find a suitable actress for the role.

“Even Lyndsey isn't available?" Maria asked in confusion.

"Yes... I didn't expect that Novel Hub would propose the adaptation of Female Military Counsellor at this time, so I didn't make enough preparations in advance. That's why we are in this dilemma. Lyndsey had existing signed contracts, which would only expire at least next year. If she had to break those contracts with no justifiable reasons... We'll have to pay the penalty. But if you really want her for this role, we can split the bill. Well, I know you can handle it... It's just a billion dollars each."

Hearing this, Maria's eyebrows instantly raised.

Was this guy serious in asking her for that big amount of money? Maria would never agree.

Jeremy could forget getting Lyndsey for the role.

No one could make Maria spend any money for no good reason.

After all, her hard-earned money would all be used to invest in Sophie's research institute. There was no way that she would use it just to hire a single actress.

“Jeremy, did you plan this on purpose?" Squinting her eyes, Maria spoke coldly.

Noticing the change in Maria's tone, Jeremy panicked and swore immediately, “Of course not! We are on the same team. Why would I sabotage this project? As for selecting the main heroine... Let me be direct. Novel Hub has also tried contacting other plausible actresses, but I actually have a suitable candidate in mind..."

“Then, who is it? Just say it outright," Maria said impatiently. They were talking about the heroine of the film adaptation of her own novel, so naturally she had to take this very seriously.

“Well... It's you!" As soon as Jeremy finished his words, he instantly shut his mouth and waited silently for Maria's reply.

However, Maria gritted her teeth and said, "I knew it! You really did this on purpose!"

Since before, Jeremy had been trying to get Maria to act on the stage, but she never agreed because of her condition.

But now, her condition was gradually improving. In fact, she could be allowed to work outside for a long time without much restrictions.

However, Maria felt like this was a trap, a setup, and she obviously didn't like it.

“Maria, why would I set a trap for you? I am not that stupid! Please trust me!"

Jeremy pleaded anxiously because Maria sounded Like she was so sure. But he had been in the entertainment circle for many years and was sophisticated enough to get himself out of trouble.

So, he immediately admitted, "The truth is that this is Greta's idea. It has nothing to do with me! Please believe me!" On the other side of the line, Maria became awfully quiet.

Jeremy didn't dare breathe until he finally heard Maria's voice. " When and where is the audition? I can try.”

‘ine.

As for her Twitter accounts, she often updated the one with less fans, but from time to time, she would log in to the her other account, which was known by many as Mia's.
