Chapter 14

I'm inside the study room of this rest house right now to check the documents that Francis gave to me. He's with the crown prince right now. They are checking the groceries I got.

Francis notified me earlier that he added men around to strengthen the security of the house. I thank him for that before saying that I have to go to the study room.

I yawned.

I'm still exhausted from coming home late last night and waking up really early to go to the grocery so that I could come here before lunch.

I licked my lower lip as I read the information about those people I could use to make Leah's life miserable. For her to lose all her credentials and connect to the showbiz industry.

"Tom Robinson," I read the name of the first person that I saw. He is the director of the first movie that Jackson became part of. He's well known and is said to be one of the best.

It means that I could really use him to influence others not to take Leah anymore. That only if he'd agree to me. I think it'd be hard because he's respected by everyone and I don't think he would take a bribe from someone like me just to destroy someone.

"Oh, this..." I said and turn to the paper where all the information about Natalia Watson was written. Just like Tom Robinson, she's also very known to be one of the greatest.

The problem was... she's lacking resources right now that's why she couldn't produce new movies. Even though that's a lot of projects that she wants to do. She needs someone to invest in.

I clicked my tongue.

I'm exactly the one that she needed.

I checked her information to get her contact number. I typed her number to my phone before I clicked the call. It rang a few times before she answered the call.

"Hello?" She said from the other line.

I was actually surprised that she answered immediately. I was expecting to get ignored first. Seems like she has so much free time as she couldn't start any projects, hm?

"Good day, Ms. Natalia Watson. This is Kia Johnson, heiress of Johnson Group of Companies." I introduced myself before I sat properly to my swivel chair, resting my back to the backrest.

"Kia Johnson? The one who got involved with Jackson Smith?" I shrieked to what he said, rolling my eyes.

Why would she even mention that? It ticks me off. But whatever, I need her right now so I'll just pretend it didn't happen.

"Yeah..." I rolled my eyes again. I hate the fact that my name has lingered with Jackson's.

"Oh, hey! I'm surprised the famous heiress of the Johnson family is calling me. How may I help you?" She seems attentive now. I think my name rings a bell already and she knew my status so she just couldn't lose the opportunity.

"I saw your pending projects and I heard that you can't find investors to help you with that."

She chuckled in the background. "I didn't know you're into this too, Ms. Johnson. I tried many times to ask for the Johnson's to help me with projects before and I always got declined." She said.

Of course, even though we have a fashion company. We still don't just accept projects like that. My parents think it's not a good investment at all.

I wouldn't be surprised if she really got rejected many times. We have endorsers but they are supermodels. Jackson couldn't even become part of it.

"Really? I didn't know that..." I tried to sound like I am interested at all. "So, I was thinking of investing." I tried to straight up to my point all ready to cut the chase.

"What makes you think of investing?" She asked me back. Why can't she just accept it? What's with so many questions.

"My assistant gave me the script for your next movie..." I looked at the paper again to read the title of her movie. "...Stealing from the Devil. It's a good plot, I like the story and I think that this will be big. I would love to help you make this one." I don't even know the plot.

Now that I mentioned it, I have to really read it so that she wouldn't be suspicious.

"Really? Thank you so much, Ms. Johnson! It's my pleasure to know that you like it. I'm really excited to make this one. But because of lacking some money... we couldn't make it." That's sad. I don't know why she couldn't even get some to invest in the movie when she's actually a really good director.

Or maybe there are some who want to invest but the money is not enough?

"Yes, anytime..." that's all I could say.

"There's a problem, Ms. Johnson though..." she sounded sad from the other line. "I was thinking of getting Jackson Smith to be part of the cast."

A wide smile form into my lips and I'm feeling excited. I couldn't explain it, I don't even need to do anything, huh? She's the one leading me to plan already without even knowing.

"Really? That's alright... I am not against the idea. He's a good actor." I tried to sound happy.

"That will be okay for you to sponsor something that your ex would probably go to benefit." She said sounding confused.

"I don't have any problem with that. Jackson and I are in good terms." What a liar, Kia. You're not in good terms! Never will be back in good terms.

"Oh... I see." She still sounds like she's not believing me at all.

I sighed.

"But I want you to do something for me," I said in a low tone

"I knew there's something you want me to do," she laughed. She's cunning, huh?

"I want you to help me destroy Leah for me, she's Jackson's manager. You're very influential in your field so I think a little help wouldn't hurt, hm?"
