Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 374 James Wants Them to Box

Wendy didn't expect to stumble upon a treasure.

If this script had appeared two months earlier, she would have picked it over the movie she was already working on.

Sadly, her next film was already in advanced stages, making it hard to abandon.

However, there might still be a way out.

James pondered for a moment. Then, his eyes sparkled as he suggested, "How about you guys have a boxing match? If they win, you agree to film the movie."

His proposal seemed oddly casual. But James was a regular at Glorian Boxing matches.

He was a huge fan of Glorian Boxing, and his two bodyguards were also skilled Glorian Boxers.

A wrong move could prove fatal.

His proposal was too much.

Wendy stood up, intending to dissuade James from the idea.

But before she could speak, James turned to her and asked, "Wendy, do you want to help them fight?" Wendy froze. "No, Your Highness, I only wanted to remind you. Shouldn't we head upstairs for drinks?" James clapped. "Let's bring the drinks down here."
