‘Thank
you."
"You're welcome. Let's meet up this weekend. I'll send you the address later."
'Okay.'
News spreads quickly in the industry.
Eugene had only contacted Danielle about the matter in the morning, and it rapidly circulated through the
industry.
Soon followed by everyone's doubts and ridicule.
"Has Eugene gone mad after all these years in the industry? At such a crucial tfor Violeta, he contacts an
obscure intern screenwriter instead of reaching out to a top-notch screenwriter. What's the nof this intern
screenwriter again?" "Danielle Wilmore."
"Heh, even an old hand like Eugene can make mistakes."
"Well, you can't say that. What if this is an unexpected move? Violeta could successfully renew her contract with
SEVITL if they produce another within a year. All of you mocking her might end up with eggs on your
faces."
"You make a good point. Let's hope you're not among those with eggs on their faces."
"Hahahahaha."

On the weekend.
In Knightsbridge Private Manor.
Nolan drove quietly, got out of the car, went around to the back to retrieve a box of pre-ordered chess sets, and
then rang the doorbell on the iron gate.
The butler, with silver streaks in his black hair, smiled as he approached to open the door.
"Nolan, you're here. Mr. Howell is taking a nap. Should | go wake him up?"
Nolan stepped inside and smiled, "No need. I'll wait for him in the backyard."
As he spoke, Nolan patted the chess set he had brought.
"These are newly purchased top-quality ivory chess pieces. I'll give him a surprise later."
The butler nodded. "Alright, then I'll prepare stea for you."
He stepped inside the house.
Nolan went to the backyard to watch the fish and drink tea, placing the new chess set on the chess table.
When he was still in school, Nolan often played chess with Wade.
The two were chess friends and could be considered lifelong friends despite their age difference.
After entering the industry, they had less tfor each other.
But Nolan would still visit Wade and keep him company whenever he had free time.
Half an hour later.
Wade woke up, put on his jacket, and left the room.
The butler said, "Mr. Howell, Nolan is waiting for you in the backyard."
"Oh, Nolan is here?"
Wade headed towards the backyard.
"Nolan."
Hearing the sound, Nolan stood up from his seat and said, "Mr. Howell, you're awake. It must have been
enjoyable to nap in this weather, neither cold nor warm." Wade replied, "Ah, as you get older, you can't sleep
well at night, so you end up feeling drowsy in the afternoon."
As he walked over, he immediately noticed the chess box on the table.
"What's this?"
Nolan smiled and said, "I brought a new set of chess pieces. | noticed you were missing a set of ivory ones, so |
thought I'd bring this for you."
Wade sat across from Nolan, reached out to open the box, and saw the warm white chess pieces made from
natural ivory inside. They gleamed with a lustrous sheen.
He took out a piece and felt it. The texture was delicate, and the touch was exceptionally smooth.
"Where did you get these? They must have been quite expensive."
"A friend bought them. The price doesn't matter. What's important is that you like them."

Wade smiled and said, "Very nice. Let's play two games."
Nolan replied, "Okay."
The butler brought a pot of freshly brewed tea and poured sfor both.
In a short while, the two games were completed.
Nolan offered to let Wade win and lost both games.
Wade took a sip from his teacup. He knew full well that Nolan had let him win. With a serious look, he asked,
"What are you after? | don't like this roundabout approach."
Nolan lowered his eyelashes slightly and stated his intentions straightforwardly, "It's true | haven't played chess
in a long tand wanted to have a few games with
you. However, | also have a personal reason. | want to ask about the news regarding 'Spring in Moon City'."
Wade set down his teacup and spoke in a deep, measured tone, "Do you want to act in 'Spring in Moon City'?
Didn't you just finish filming and it performed quite well at the box office? Why the sudden push?"
Nolan hesitated momentarily and said, "It's not for me. I'm asking on behalf of a friend."
Wade's gaze settled on Nolan's face, and he raised an eyebrow with a smile. "Oh, and which friend might that
be?"
Since he had already spoken up, Nolan decided to be straightforward.
"Violeta White."
After all, Wade had mentored quite a few actresses.
