Chapter 115

After wrapping up a supporting role scene, Galen got a call from Chad.

They had met before but weren’t that close, having only spoken at an after-party.

Galen figured Chad was calling about Teresa. But it turned out that Chad wanted to introduce him to a screenwriter.

“I already have a screenwriter.” Galen said, confused.

“The screenwriter I’m referring to is Fred.” Chad said calmly.

Galen was taken aback. The script for Eyes on the Rendezvous was inspired by Galen’s reading of renowned author Fred’s work, Vanishing Riddle. In the early stages of the project, Galen had contacted Fred to co-write the script, but Fred had been too busy.

Galen wasn’t thrilled with the existing Eyes on the Rendezvous script. He often held meetings with the writer and creative team for revisions. If Fred really joined the crew… He couldn’t even fathom the endless possibilities.

After weighing his options, Galen said to Chad, “If you can really convince Fred, I’ll let Teresa’s actions slide.”

Chad chuckled and said, “We’ll deal with Teresa by the book.”

Galen was stunned. “What?”

“Don’t overthink this, Galen. I’m just a regular viewer, hoping you’ll outperform The Alley. Fred is on her way; she’ll probably arrive tonight. Oh, and Fred is a woman; she’s my wife.”

Meanwhile.

After hanging up with Chad, Egbert turned to find Eileen engrossed in a video game on the floor. Janice recommended the game, and Eileen was hooked.
