Forbidden Passion

Chapter 361 I Overpowered You

In the hallway, Hank and David were there, but Phoebe was missing. Theodore frowned and asked, "Where's Phoebe?"

Hank quickly answered, "She was here a moment ago. She didn't look well and probably went downstairs."

Theodore looked at Hank coldly. "I just talked to the doctor. Vanessa's got a broken leg and can't film for a while. What's your plan?"

Hank pressed his lips together. "Mr. Reynolds, stopping production for a day costs nearly fifty thousand dollars. Plus, the actors' schedules are tight. We can't just wait for Miss Fitzroy to recover." Vanessa's role wasn't important enough to hold up everyone else.

Theodore knew this. He'd invested five hundred million dollars in the film because he believed in Hank's script.

He stared coldly at Hank. "Get to the point."

Hank suggested, "Since Miss Fitzroy can't perform, we should replace her. Ms. Ziegler would fit the role well..."

"Don't even think about it!" Theodore cut him off. Phoebe was his woman, and he wasn't letting her act.

Hank was disappointed but tried to argue, "Ms. Ziegler really fits the role."

Theodore glared at him, and Hank backed down. "It's hard to find a replacement on short notice. All the top actresses are booked."

"Then shoot other scenes for now. I'll handle the supporting role. And don't tell Phoebe. If she asks, send her to me," Theodore said calmly. Hank was speechless.

Phoebe sat in the garden, lost in thought. The night wind lifted her hair, making her look frail.

Suddenly, a little boy, about four or five, ran towards her and almost fell.
