Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 741 - 771: Here It Comes Again

Brother Kuan was momentarily speechless. In film and television these days, money talks, and the contract had clearly stated that script modifications could be requested.

Brother Kuan had no choice but to agree. Alessia Quinn looked as if she’d won a great victory, casting a smug glance at Mabel Quinn. No matter how well Mabel wrote scripts, no matter how talented she was, no matter how much she had the favor of her uncle, what did it matter? With just one word, she could negate all of Mabel’s hard work. Alessia was the one who held the power of life and death, and Mabel was nothing.

Seeing Alessia like this, Alice Conley was furious, recognizing that Alessia was targeting them. Rather, Mabel remained composed. To be honest, she had already anticipated today’s outcome, but she hadn’t expected Alessia to be so petty, even dragging Alice into the mess.

After the meeting, back at the Studio, in Brother Kuan’s office, Brother Kuan apologized, "I didn’t expect things would turn out like this with the Quinn Group. Now about this script..."

"Even if Alice and I write a new script, they won’t be satisfied," Mabel said. "Since that’s the case, I think I should withdraw from this project, and maybe the Studio can start a new project, one that I can write for."

Starting a new project could also mean writing a script first and then using it to attract investment or pitching it to other film companies.

Alice quickly added, "Brother Kuan, Mabel and I will work on the new project together."

Brother Kuan thought for a moment, "That could work. Previously, the Studio considered writing a fantasy costume drama microfilm script. The demand for such online video microfilm scripts is relatively high. If the script is good and the quality is excellent, it could be a viable long-term development path."

"Okay, Alice and I will start this project," Mabel said. She was quite interested in the microfilm script for a fantasy costume drama.

And at the side, Alice Conley looked confident and full of energy.

The two friends exchanged a smile.

But when Mabel Quinn returned to her apartment, her mind, filled with ambitious plans just moments ago, suddenly became chaotic.

It was because at the door to her apartment, a tall figure was standing there, chatting with the neighborhood auntie.

Of course, Kyle Kinston wore a calm expression, speaking only occasionally, mostly listening as the auntie chatted enthusiastically. As soon as she saw Mabel return, the auntie said, "Mabel, your boyfriend has been waiting for you outside for quite a while. Why don’t you give him a set of keys so it’ll be more convenient? I invited him to sit at my place, but he refused, saying he didn’t want to miss you coming back."

Mabel almost stumbled, nearly slipping on the stairs. Give Kyle Kinston a set of house keys? Make it more convenient for him?

Mabel felt the need to clarify the situation to prevent further misunderstandings with the neighborhood auntie. So she cleared her throat and said, "Aunt Zhang, he’s not my boyfriend, just an ex-boyfriend."

"Oh," Aunt Zhang paused, then continued, "It’s no problem. People get together and break up all the time nowadays; it’s very common. Mabel, I’m an open-minded person, I understand, I understand."

"..." Mabel really wanted to ask Aunt Zhang what exactly she understood. But given the situation, she decided to head inside first and talk later.
