He never takes care of himself. The little kid concluded.

“Go away. Don’t disturb me!” The man shoved the kid away.

The kid lost his balance and fell onto the ground with a plop.

Suddenly, a female voice rang from the door. “Greg Maxwell.”

Greg opened his eyes groggily and gazed at the gorgeous woman standing at the door. He muttered, “Who are

you?”

“I’m here to save your life.”

Ten minutes later, Greg washed up and returned to Ashlyn.

He seemed mild-mannered and handsome enough.

The little boy sat by his side and stared at Ashlyn innocently.

“I haven’t shot a movie for some time.” Greg could still feel his heart clench in horror upon recalling how vicious

she was.

As they were poor, there was a well right in front of his house. Normally, they’d get water from the well.

There was also a water tank by the well.

He would never forget how Ashlyn held him by his collar and flung him into the water tank with his face down.

The only question she asked was, “Are you awake now?”

Greg nearly choked to death. There was no way he’d still be unconscious.

Hence, he cleaned himself up obediently and sat down, listening to what the stranger had to say.

He couldn’t believe his ears when he heard the woman asking him—the useless director—to direct a movie for her.

This is so hilarious! Greg thought as he rejected her immediately.

“Don’t reject me at once. I’ll leave the script with you. Read it and contact me after thinking it over.” Ashlyn handed

a script to Greg. “Mr. Maxwell, you need to climb up from where you fell. Do you want to be scolded for the rest of

your life? Besides, look at your adorable son. Do you want him to have a bleak future?”

Greg’s eyes reddened at the thought.

He gripped the script in his hands and said nothing for a long time.

Greg used to be the valedictorian of his class in the Department of Directing at UCLA. He even wrote his own script

and became famous after directing the movie himself.

However, he never imagined he’d be tied to a plagiarizing scandal later on.

His best friend, Frank, had plagiarized his script, which was saved in his laptop, and finished shooting earlier than he

did. However, he hadn’t finished shooting yet when the news broke out.

In the end, he was forced to stop shooting as Frank’s movie was premiered before his movie.

Frank even reprimanded him for plagiarizing his work.

The investors he had gotten earlier immediately pulled out, but he was in the middle of filming and had

accumulated some expenses, so the investors brought him to court and demanded him to pay for all their losses.

His wife divorced him promptly. What angered him the most was that his wife ended up with Frank right after their

divorce.

It turned out his wife was involved in stealing his script in the first place!

Greg had to sell his entire fortune to pay off his debts, but he was currently still saddled with debts.

Since then, he had been drowning in sorrows sluggishly.

He disappeared from the entertainment industry. The once talented new director was long gone.

Never in his wildest dreams, had Greg expected someone would ever ask him to make a film again.

His first reaction was that the woman was a scammer.

But to his surprise, she gave him a well-written script.

His throat turned dry. “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll sell your script?”

“Oh? I’ve copyrighted the script, so no one would buy it even if you have the intention to sell it,” Ashlyn returned

coolly. “Both you and Frank knew the truth of what happened back then. Don’t you want to take revenge?”

“Of course. I’d die to make that happen.”

“I can help you.” Ashlyn’s lips curved up into a smile as she stared at him with her charmingly persuasive eyes. “I

have the best production team. We’ll hire top actors and actresses to star in this movie.”

“Why would you help me?” Greg looked at her in bafflement.

Nothing was free in this world. It was more like a pie in the sky.

“Because I want to return a favor.” Ashlyn shot him a grin.
