Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband
Chapter 1314

Chapter 1314 

Hannah excitedly babbled on the phone, “Nelly, the TV show I was supposed to do has hit a snag. The investors have pulled out and it’s not happening now, so my schedule’s all cleared up.” 

Comelia chuckled, “So why are you sounding so thrilled that your TV show fell through?” 

Hannah replied, “Because now I can do yours first. My agent has already hashed things out with Foriver Entertainment. We’re gonna start shooting right after Christmas. You’ll be on set too as the screenwriter. We’ll be able to hang out every day.” 

Comelia was buzzing about the upcoming script, “That’s wicked. I’m looking forward to it too.” 

Hannah asked, “When are you due? I need to know if the timing’s gonna work.” 

Comelia answered, “March. But it’s no biggie, I can still work.” 

Hannah worried, “It’s already December, and you’re due in just over two months. Lugging around a baby bump on set is gonna be tough. Maybe I should tweak the schedule, we can shoot after the baby’s born.” 

Cornelia brushed it off, “Some people have it tougher and manage to work while pregnant. I can do it too. Plus, my baby’s a dream, never gives me any trouble.” 

Hannah thought for a moment, “Alright, I’ll get some extra hands to look after you then, make sure you’re not overdoing it.” 

Cornelia laughed, “I don’t need babysitting. I can manage myself. I do need to pick your brain about something though, you got a minute?” 

Hannah asked, “Sure, what’s up?” 

Cornelia said, “It’s about the script.” 

Hannah, being an actress, knew a thing or two about scripts. She gave Cornelia some solid advice, which Cornelia gratefully took onboard. 

After discussing the script, they chit–chatted about this and that. Then Hannah casually mentioned Marcus, “I haven’t heard from Marcus in a while, wonder if the rumors are true.” 

Realizing she’d put her foot in it, Hannah wished she could take it back, “Nelly.” 

Cornelia just laughed, “The Hartley Group going belly up, Brennen getting arrested and Marcus possibly dead. It’s all over the news, hard to miss.” 

Hannah asked, “So, you…” 

Cornelia said, “I’m done with him. What happens to him now is none of my business.” 

Hannah said, “If you can truly put him behind you, that’d be great.” She thought Cornelia might’ve been bluffing. 

Cornelia said, “I’ve got another call coming in, got to go.” 

Hannah said, “Alright.” 

The incoming call was from Frankie, the director at Foriver Entertainment, “Cornelia, we’ve gone over your script.” 

Cornelia asked, “And?” 

Frankie said, “I know you’ve put your heart and soul into this script, and spent a lot of time on it. But you’re not a professional screenwriter and there are too many mistakes in it.” 

Cornelia asked, “So?” 

Frankie said, “I’m just letting you know, you don’t have to keep working on this script. We’re gonna bring in a professional screenwriter to take 

over.” 

Cornelia said, “That’s not what you said when I submitted the script a few days ago.” 

Frankie said, “Well, you’re and we didn’t want to squash your enthusiasm, so everyone tried to be positive. Anyway, just thought I’d let you know. Christmas is coming, have a good one. With that, Frankie hung up, leaving Cornelia with a bunch of unanswered questions. 

Cornelia had a hunch she’d been used. Hannah had warned her that newbie writers often get shafted, sometimes not even getting credit for their work. So she was careful to have evidence for every interaction and script submission. 

If Foriver Entertainment didn’t want her script and wouldn’t pay her, she could only chalk it up as time wasted. But if they wanted to use her script without paying her, or even worse, credit someone else for her work, she sure as hell wasn’t gonna let them off the hook.
