Chapter 223 We're Both in the Same Boat

Samantha didn't have a business card with her at the moment, so she couldn't prove her identity right away. But that didn't matter. In three days, she would officially take over the Wallace Corporation. Once that happened, Jacob would know exactly who she was.

Samantha replied, "Mr. Moore, sometimes young people aren't just students. We can wear more than one hat, like being the new CEO of Wallace Corporation. Let me formally introduce myself. I'm Samantha Wallace. My mother founded the Wallace Corporation. Several years ago, my mother died from an illness, and I was left with a head injury from a fire that impaired my cognitive abilities to those of a seven- or eight-year-old. Hence, my inept father temporarily took over the company Now that I've completely recovered, the Wallace Corporation is coming back under my control. In three days, it will officially be mine. If you trust me, I'll honor my promise to invest in your film."

Jacob didn't quite understand why Samantha was sharing all this with him, but there was one thing he was definitely curious about. "We don't even know each other. Why do you want to help me?"

Samantha looked at him earnestly and said, "Because, Mr. Moore, I think we're in the same boat."

"The same boat?"

Samantha nodded. "That's right. We've both been through the wringer. You were framed and betrayed by the rising star you made famous, leaving your reputation in tatters and no films to direct. And I was betrayed by my own family, left mentally incapacitated for three years. We're cut from the same cloth. Our experiences may not be identical, but there are enough similarities. That's why I want to help you to clear your name and help you win the Best Director award again."

Although Jacob wasn't sure if what Samantha said was true, he was deeply grateful for her trust in him. Ever since that scandal exploiting actresses came to light, my reputation has been utterly ruined. Even my parents and wife severed all ties with me, not
