Chapter 421
It must have been really tough for Angel toe up with so many unfounded usations, Valerie
thought Angel must really hate her.
In the past, no matter what trouble Valerie encountered, she always tried not to bother Matthew
After all, Valerie never considered them a real couple. Since they were bound to part ways
eventually, it was better to owe him as little as possible. But now things were different. Since she
was his wife, there was no such thing as being a bother.
“Why did you call me?” Matthew’s voice on the other end of the phone was low and soft, much like
his whispers in her ear the previous night.
Valerie figured he was probably in his office now, which meant he had aputer at hand.
“Matthew,” she said, mimicking Angel’s usual innocent tone sounding pitiful, “I saw someone
ndering me online. I’m really scared. Can you help me find out who I’ve offended?”
Asshe spoke, she sent him a screenshot.
Matthew’s brows furrowed insediately. This Eternal Melody?”
Valerie replied. “Yes, I used to run a book–reading ount and did some other things. This ‘Eternal
Melody is my ount.”
Matthew was aware of this. “Don’t worry. I’ll look into it.”
Even though he said that, from the nderous description, he had a pretty good guess who might
be behind it
Valerie didn’t push him any further. Strictly speaking, it was his actions that caused her to get
ndered. Once Matthew found out who was responsible, he could deal with Angel himself.
Thinking about this, Valerie felt a bit cunning and mischievous. But it didn’t matter. It was Angel who
started this. She was just giving Angel a taste of her own medicine.
On the other end, Matthew assumed Valerie was genuinely scared and continued tofort her,
“Vallie, don’t worry. I’m here!
His voice was indeed very reassuring. With just a few words, Valerie felt an inexplicable calmness
washing over her, making her think she could on him a bit more.
Valerie suddenly thought of something and asked, “Matthew, can I ask you something? What kind
of person is Fred?”
Matthew had been rtively calm, but the mention of Fred’s name made his brows knit tightly. “Did
he do something to you?”
rely
Valerie heard his anxious voice and quickly exined. “It’s nothing, I was just asking casually. Last
time you had an incident in the mountains, Mr. Hudson had me sign a document on your behalf, and
I met Fred at that time.”
Matthew’s brow eased a bit, then he said, “He’s not a good person. Stay as far away from him as
possib
“Okay” Valerie lu
hadn’t nned to get involved with Fred anyway. She mentioned it to make Matthew n
more cautious.
After Matthew hung up, he immediately called Charles and questioned him, “What’s the deal with
Fred meeting Valerie?”
Charles was eating outside at the moment and his heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. He
realized he had forgotten to inform Matthew about this matter. He quickly exined nervously.
“Please rest assured. Mr. Fred has already gone to the sales department. 1 heard he’s been quite
restrainedtely
“Restrained… Matthew thought. This bastard is quiettely. He must be up to something!
Speaking of which, Angel’s kidnapping seemed very suspicious. Matthew pressed his forehead, his
face betraying a hint of anger.
After finishing her tasks, Valerie returned to Redfield Pictures.
Just as she was about to start working, Stan approached her. Seeing Valerie, he approached and
said softly, “Valerie, where did you go! I heard just arrived?”
Sering Stan’s ambiguous smile, Valerie raised
you
an eyebrow. “Mr. Fisher, I wasn’tte today. I arrived within the designated time.” Stan paarsed.
“Yes, you weren’tte. I was just asking”
Seeing a corner of the document peeking out of Valerie’s bag, Stan took a few steps closer. “What’s
this?”
Valerie hung her bag behind her, zipped it up, and said, “Nothing, Just study materials”
Stan questioned, “Is that so! Valerie, you should know it’s a big risk for Redfielder.

information online saying you’ve already signed a contract with Star Xarous Group, and Once Upon
A Time has started shooting, you’re doing the dubbing?”
Valerie didn’t expect the news to spread so quickly. Stan’s visit was p
was probably to confirm it with her. She couldn’t deny it now,
Without hesitation, she nodded. “Yes, I just signed the contract. Mr. Fisher, you’re really well–
informed“”
Stan smiled. “Of course, right after you signed with Star Xarous, I received the news. The production
of Once Upon A Time shes with ours. Do you know any insider information? Like their
promotional materials..
Valerie interrupted him directly. “Mr. Fisher, I’m not very clear about their affairs. I’m only involved in
the dubbing phase, I don’t know much about the pre–production. Besides, even if I knew, I couldn’t
say. It’s confidential, and I have professional ethics?
Valerie had confirmed the dubbing job for “Once Upon A Time with Shawn beforehand. Since she
was only involved in dubbing and not in confidential work, and because Shawn trusted her, there
was no issue from his perspective. On the contrary, Shawn thought it was a good opportunity for her
to gain more experience.
However, others might not think so.
Stan wasn’t pleased when Valerie refused. He said, “Valerie, you should know, you were rejected
by the entirework at one point. It was Redfield Pictures that took you in Just disclose a little, it’ll
be fine. They won’t know it’s from us!!
“No!” Before Valerie could responn, A KIPTI VOILE LATTE HINDI KALAHANG AMPUTE
n was even more anxious and uneasy. “Mr. Redfield!”
Stan
Shawn looked displeased. “Valerie is right. Once Upon A Time is
is a business secret. Even if you could extract some information, we couldn’t produce an identical
piece. Copying would not bu Redickd Pictures’s development
Stan’s face turned red from embarrassment. Valerie nodded. “That’s true. Even with so many
screenwriters in the industry, creating a unique 11o takes time and can’t be achieved through
shortens.”
Stan felt utterly humiliated and silently cursed his bad luck for being caught by Shawn in the act.
Shawn said seriously, “Mr. Fisher, you may go back to your work now.
Stan’s face flushed. He quickly left the office. Shawn looked at Valerie and said, “test assured. Our
company does not engage in such practices. Even if our scale is smaller, we will take one step at a
time and work steadily”
Valerie was reassured because Redfield Pictures
s wouldn’t stray from the right path with Max at the helm. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have made it to
today.
Valerie nodded repeatedly, and Shawn then left.
Finally, Valerie had some free time. After finishing the dulling work for Redfield Pictures, she began
studying the script in her spare time.
However, there were
were some parts of the script that she didn’t quite understand.
The screenwriter could write, but Valerie was unsure about some cultural and historical contexts,
especially historical objects.
She marked all the unclear parts in the script and tried to look them up online. But without physical
references, it was difficult to rely solely on Imagination. Valerie found it quite challenging.
While Valerie was figuring it out, Shawn walked over after loving a meeting. He saw the notes
tes in her notebook. He smiled. “You don’t understand these parts?”
Snapping out of her thoughts, Valerie looked up and saw it was Shawn. Embarrassed, she spread
out her notebook. “Yeah, I don’t quite get the story’s background. I can’t imagine the sense of awe
from the first encounter
Shawn remarked, “That’s not hard at all
Shawn’s words surprised Valerie. She eximed, “Not hard?”
She thought, ‘How could it be easy!‘
The script contained many such descriptions of historical objects, but she didn’t quite grasp them.
Her family background and environment growing up didn’t allow her to delve deeply into these
areas. Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.
Shawn raised an eyebrow, “I don’t have many collections, but if you’re interested, I can take you to
an antique shop to try your luck. They have various artifacts you can experience. Experiencing it in
person can give you a real sense of it.”
Valerie readily agreed. That would be great, Mr. Shawn”
Shawn chuckled. “It’s no trouble. Helping you understand the script better will elevate your
performance, which benefits our productions.” Shawn, ever the gentleman, drove Valerie straight to
an antique
market.
Upon arrival, he introduced her, “This is Antique Street. Inside, there’s a shop called Treasure
Ind. I can’t guarantee everything is authentic, but we’ve worked with them for a long time. We
often consult them for props. You’ll see oner you get in there.”
Shawn hadn’t lied. In period dramas, props often needed to incorporate information from various
museums and antique paintings Antique shops were excellent ces for sourcing such details.
Valerie had no reason to doubt him.
Once inside, Valerie was dazzled by the array of antiques on the shelves, from vintage clocks and
ss cups in various statues of all sizes.
The shop owner seemed well–acquainted with wn and greeted him. “Mr. Shawn, feel free to look
around!”
Shawn nodded. “I brought a friend to get a feel for things today.
He led Valerie inside and said. “Take your time to look arou
arounil. If you have any questions, just ask. The owner can give you a detailed introduction.”
Valerie’s eyes fell on a beautifully crafted brass telescope. Without hesitation, she remarked, “This
telescope seems to be from thete 19th century.
