Chapter 33

Author: Little Happiness
That evening, I met up with Ruby and told her about the situation.

She was just as confused as I was. Then, she said, "This is easy. I'll hire a private investigator to look into it. If Timothy really has some kind of mental health issue, your divorce will be a piece of cake. If he proposed to you while hiding his condition, that's marriage fraud!"

I rolled my eyes at her. "Don't forget that I have mental health issues now, too. I'm seeing a psychiatrist, remember?"

"That's completely different! You're like this because of him! Anyway, leave this to me!" She snarled, "That cursed man has been giving our kindergarten a hard time because of his daughter. He even threatened my dad, saying that he'd pull Grant Corporation's annual investment! I've been dying to catch him out. Let's see how cocky he is when I get some dirt on him!"

After dinner, I headed home. Timothy wasn't back yet.

I heard Yasmin on the phone with him in the living room, saying gently, "Don't stress yourself out. No

    Isaac spoke in a calm, almost detached voice. "Pretend I'm not here. Just talk about whatever you need to discuss."It was only then that Judith asked Ryan about his interest in working with us. Ryan looked hesitant, and his agent spoke up. "We're really sorry. We can collaborate next time. Grant Corporation has already reached an agreement with us. "And honestly, this isn't something Ryan can decide on his own. He's an artist under our company, so he has to follow our arrangements."The manager smoothly pulled Ryan out of the negotiation, probably not wanting him to offend anyone while his career was at its peak. Judith's smile stiffened, and I felt a little discouraged, too.To be honest, we already knew that inviting Ryan would be difficult. That night's dinner was more like a last attempt than a real chance. Just when the conversation fell silent, Leon walked in with an envelope containing a document.None of us expected the envelope to contain a cooperation agreement between

    Ruby chuckled before she grinned and clung to my arm. "Take me with you. I've been Ryan's fan since his debut. If I can even sit at the same table and share a meal with him even once, I can die happy."I stared at her, speechless. "Does Dr. Pearson know about this? Won't he get jealous?"Ruby immediately made a shushing gesture. "How could I let him know? Besides, he's been busy with surgeries every day. We haven't even been on a date in ages. I'm free either way. Just take me to see my celebrity crush, please."Ruby wouldn't let up. After I discussed it with Jude, I agreed to bring her along.Once Ruby knew that she would finally get to see her celebrity crush that night, she went home that afternoon to pick out an outfit and get ready.That evening, on the way to the hotel, she kept fixing her hair in the mirror."Stop looking already. You're pretty enough," I said helplessly. "Just don't get too excited tonight. We're there to talk business.""Relax," she said, winking at me.

    I was genuinely surprised that Isaac would offer to help, but I also knew that it was best not to owe anyone favors. Otherwise, if he'd mock me with thinly veiled sarcasm, I wouldn't even have the standing to say a single word in response."Thank you, Mr. Shore, but it's already been taken care of."After saying that, I headed straight for the door and left the Shore residence.On the way home, Jude called me. I guessed that she must've spoken to Ryan and had gotten answers."So? What did Ryan say?" I asked.Jude sounded irritated. "When Mr. Gallagher and I contacted his agent, they said the 'Marital Hearts' production team had also reached out to him. He said he needed time to think it over. "But just now, I saw Yasmin's Instagram post. From the way she phrased it, it looks like 'Marital Hearts' has already locked him in as their male lead. We… probably don't stand a chance.""As long as they haven't signed a contract yet, we still have a shot," I said.I wasn't even sure w

    Isaac was there at the Shore residence as well.He looked like he had just returned. He was still in his dark gray coat, his tie slightly loosened, and his sleeves rolled up to his forearms. He looked relaxed but composed.When he saw me, he didn't seem surprised. Victoria must've already told him."Let's eat," he said casually, almost as if I belonged there.During the meal, Victoria kept replaying what had happened the night before.The more she talked, the more upset she became. She was almost in tears. "I must be getting senile. How did I end up causing you so much trouble? Isaac is your uncle-in-law, and I… tried to set you two up. How ridiculous of me!"Isaac calmly ate and occasionally said a few words to comfort her.I couldn't stand to see her like this, so I patiently reassured her as well.When she finally calmed down, she looked at me again, her gaze full of sympathy. "You're such a good person. How did you end up marrying a man like that?"She went on angrily, "Do

    Jude sighed and tried to talk me through it. She said, "Fine. We won't argue about who copied whom. But getting back together is the trend right now—audiences love that kind of ending. If you were writing just for yourself, I wouldn't say a single word. The problem is, our investors can't afford to lose everything, right?"Do you know how popular Miranda is? They came for us this time. If you don't like it, you can go to the headquarters and talk to the boss yourself."I knew that the biggest investor behind this drama was Isaac, but Shore Group was massive.Isaac was responsible for decisions worth hundreds of millions, and he still had to attend court as a lawyer. There was no way he would bother micromanaging a small film company under the group.Besides, I didn't want to keep getting tangled up with him.I was silent for a moment before I asked, "What options do I have besides changing the plot?"Jude's tone turned serious. "You can get Ryan Carr on board. Right now, he's a

    Just like that, I drove back to the apartment I had rented.The dim yellow light in the living room fell across the familiar wooden floor, dispelling the chill that clung to me. I changed my shoes and collapsed onto the couch, feeling completely drained.Thinking back to what Dr. Montgomery had said earlier that day, I suddenly wondered if this was a blessing in disguise.At least now, Timothy understood that we could never go back to the way things were. Instead of starting over, it was better to make him hate me and have him cooperate in finalizing the divorce.Before going to bed, I took the medication Dr. Montgomery had prescribed that day and finally slept soundly.…The next day was the weekend, and I didn't have work. When I woke up, the "Marriage Journey" production group chat already had dozens of new messages.The group included the lead actors, producers, the director, and other crew members. The group was usually quiet. If it suddenly became active, something serious
