Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 970

"Hey..."

"Give it here."

Jack reached out to Sarah, "Let me talk to Mason."

Skipping a shoot, that's no minor issue. Sarah hesitated for a moment before handing over her phone.

"Hello?"

Jack picked up, "Mason, it's me, Jack."

"Mr. Thompson?" Mason's tone shifted instantly, "Is Sarah with you?"

"Yes."

Jack didn't go into detail, "I'm feeling under the weather, and Sarah needs to take a few days off to take care of me. Any losses to the production, I'll cover. What do you say, can we make this work?" "Of course!"

How could Mason refuse?

"Mr. Thompson, you should definitely rest up. Let Sarah stay with you. We'll coordinate with Mr. Marshall on our end."

"Alright, thanks."

With just a few words, Jack hung up and handed the phone back to Sarah.

"Is everything okay?"

She really needed the time off, not just to look after Jack, but because of Emma... She had to wait until she woke up, to make sure everything was alright, to find some peace. "Don't worry, it's all taken care of."
