CHAPTER 1633: CHAPTER 1633: WHO IS THE INVESTOR?

"Dad, you’re trying to trick me, aren’t you? I’m not falling for it. Anyway, since Mommy doesn’t forgive you, we won’t either. Don’t expect me to betray her."

After saying this righteously, Hank Thompson was put back into the covers.

Seeing this, Justin Battleson couldn’t help pressing his palm to his throbbing temple.

At this moment, Hank added fuel to the fire by saying:

"Dad, I can’t sleep. Can you tell me a bedtime story?"

...

Riley Thompson didn’t have many scenes in the original crew, so she had a relatively free schedule.

Thus, after the filming ended, she changed into a new outfit and headed towards the hotel.

After she proactively contacted the director and got approval to audition, the director quickly responded, inviting her to a luncheon that afternoon.

On the way to the hotel, Riley Thompson carefully reviewed the general details of the cast that the director sent her. To her surprise, the production scale of this drama was exceedingly large.

Whether it was from the director team or the cast, it could be considered among the top of the works Riley Thompson had participated in, which indicated that the investor for this project definitely had strong backing.

This time, it was the lead female role that was offered to her.

As for the other supporting roles, the director had long decided on them.

Seeing that many of the actors on the list were quite famous in the entertainment circle, the thought of these people playing supporting roles for her filled her with a sense of inexplicable excitement.

Suddenly, realizing that she had been specifically named by the investor, a hint of apprehension crept into Riley’s heart.

After all, everyone wishes for an amazing opportunity to land on their lap, but when it actually happens, it’s natural to have some doubts.

Riley Thompson felt the same way.

However, without much hesitation, she agreed to the director’s invitation, because she wanted to see who this investor was.

Perhaps, as she imagined, it was a person with exceptional power and connections, and their current interest in her signified an opportunity had arrived.

Indeed, Riley Thompson harbored the thought of leaving Leon Battleson.

Riley increasingly felt that every moment with Leon was tormenting.

More importantly, now he wanted...

As if recalling something unpleasant, Riley clutched her hands tightly.

But she also understood that she currently had a weakness held by Leon, making it challenging to completely break away from him.

As Riley’s thoughts wandered, she arrived at the hotel location provided by Mr. Alexander. She tidied her clothes and then followed directions to the private room.

A receptionist was still at the doorway of the private room, seemingly having been notified in advance, as they promptly opened the door upon seeing Riley.

But when Riley walked into the room, she found that almost everyone there had familiar faces.

Apart from Mr. Alexander, there were also some well-known producers and actors.

However, none of them seemed to be the investor.

"Miss Riley, you’re here."

Mr. Alexander stood up and nodded at Riley, seemingly noticing her expression, and immediately explained, "The investor hasn’t arrived yet, Miss Riley, please wait a moment."

But just as the director finished speaking, the door was pushed open again.

When she saw the person walking in, the smile on Riley’s face instantly froze.
