Chapter 636
Maja again tried to knock on the door but got no response. She shouted as loud as she could,
“Meetman, I’m here to talk business with you.” But inside, Meetman was pouring himself another drink.
He heard her and justughed,
“Business talk?”
“Meetman, I know about your beef with Harden. And I think you were set up. I’m here to help, but if
you’d rather hide out here, I can leave.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a bottle could be heard hitting the floor inside.
Then the door swung open.
Meetman stood there, a surprise and a spark in his eyes as he asked,
“Who are you?”
Maja handed him her business card.
“I’m Maja, the CEO of Star Movie Group. We’re still a small fry, but I believe we can help you.”
Meetman took the card and opened the door.
The ce was aplete mess. A tiny room with just a bed and a couch, and a table full of empty
bottles. There was a bucket filled with dirty clothes next to it. Meetman sat on the bed, while Maja and
Zoey took the couch.

“So, how do you n to help me?”
“Meetman, my helpes with strings attached.”
Meetman eyed Maja, trying to gauge if she was legit.
Maja didn’t shy away from his gaze.
Meetman didn’t have much of a choice, so he took a big gulp of his drink.
“Look at me, I’ve got nothing to offer.”
“I want your talent. If I help you settle things with Harden, you’ll have toe to work for mypany
as a director and stick to the scripts we give you.” Maja said that while scanning the room.
The walls were stered with posters of popr movies and TV shows from recent years, showing that
Meetman hadn’t given up on his dream.
Meetman was once very dedicated to his work, upromising towards any faults from his stars. That
led to him getting no support from his co–workers when things went south for him. Sympathy was all on
Harden‘ side.
Harden thus created an image of a strong woman who, despite being abused and cheated on, still
worked hard.
This image, in today’s era of female empowerment, was widely epted. Harden gained a lot of fans
and smartly used her image and poprity to attract viewers to her shows.
Most of her productions revolved around domestic abuse and infidelity, the topics that made her
popr.
Every time a new show aired, Meetman was dragged through the mud again.
In reality, Harden was using Meetman to boost her own status, even taking over his resources.
As a man, how could Meetman swallow this?
“I agree.”
“Meetman, I want you tomit to making movies or TV shows for mypany, no distractions.”
Meetman was pissed, but he held it in.
“I take every work of mine seriously!”
Maja pulled out a contract and ced it in front of him.
“Then sign this.”
Meetman didn’t even read the contract, he just flipped to thest page and signed his name.
Maja raised an eyebrow but said nothing.
Once Meetman signed, Maja did the same. Then she said, “I heard Harden has a new showing
up, based on her own life. Guess you’ll be the talk of the town again.”
“That woman is evil!”
Meetman’s eyes were filled with hatred. His teeth were clenched.
Unfortunately, Harden was on high alect with him. She never answered his calls or agreed to meet
with him after their divorce.
But Meetman’s life just kept on getting worse. Either he found his belongings being tossed out by
So, he ended up in this forgotten ce, barely scraping by every day!
His livelihood came from acting as a bodyguard for the women in that alley.
All kinds of shady businesses were conducted there, with low pay and frequent trouble from gangsters.
Meetman went from being a director to a vagabond who often got into fights with thugs. He was always
bruised and barely made ends meet each month.
When he was a director, he dealt with millions. Now, he was barely scraping by, dealing with constant
pain.
All because
All because of Harden!
