Chapter 525
Utterly touched, Greg looked at Ashlyn fervently.
Jared knew this gaze all too well.
Tinsor and Blair used to gaze at Ashlyn the same way, too.
He believed someone else would be gazing at Ashlyn the same way soon enough.
For example, this foolish and chatty brother of this.
Unaware of his brother’s concern, Jonathan was reading the script. He was excited when he realized how his
character would be portrayed.
“Oh my! This is brilliant! Trashy Idol? Snowstorm is truly a genius. I love her so much!”
“Wait, isn’t that me in real life? Handsome, great at singing and dancing, kind, and loves picking up trash! Aha!”
“My idol! I love you! You didn’t even give me a partner in this movie! Thanks to her, I can focus on picking up trash.
She must be worried that my fans can’t accept it.”

Especially Greg, who couldn’t take it any longer. Am I going to work with this chatterbox?
Oh, how unbearable!
But Ashlyn was the one who chose him.
Greg clenched his teeth and resisted the urge to kick Jonathan out. He then carried on the discussion with Ashlyn.
“Ms. Berry, this movie has some sci-fi scenes, so the budget will be slightly higher. You might need to invest more
than you had in mind.”
“Oh? How much money do you need?” Ashlyn asked in a serious manner. She was completely focused on Greg’s
explanation.
Greg felt respected by her reaction. He looked at her and mustered his courage. “Around three hundred million.”
Three hundred million was no small amount.
To most people, three hundred million was an astronomical amount of money. Most people wouldn’t be able to save
that much money in their lifetime.
Greg was a poor man himself, so he had never seen so much money in his life.
Nevertheless, he was determined to make a great movie.
If he failed in doing so, all the investment would go to waste.
Greg was stressed out, but he chose to be honest.
Ashlyn fell silent as she pondered about it.
Greg scanned her expression as he was afraid she’d reject him. When she fell silent, he felt his heart sank. Does
she not have that much money? She might be close to Jared, but he doesn’t have that much money too, right?
He stammered, “If three hundred million exceeds your budget, w-we can find other investors. Most movies have
more than one investor. Some even have up to ten!”
Ashlyn merely glanced at him. “Three hundred million is enough?”
“Huh? What?” Greg was still in a daze.
He watched as Ashlyn whipped out her checkbook and wrote out a cheque for him.
His eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the cheque of three hundred million!

“If this isn’t enough, let me know.” Ashlyn grinned. “I believe the quality of a movie can be guaranteed with the
appropriate amount of funding. Don’t let me down, Maxwell.”
Jonathan craned his neck to take a look at the cheque.
“Wow, Ashlyn! Where did you get this much money from? Are you using my brother’s money to keep up with
appearances?”
Jared felt completely humiliated by his foolish brother. “Shut up!”
Jonathan scoffed, “Fine! Since my brother said so, forget it.”
He said nothing and continue to read through the script. It was very entertaining, so he was soon engrossed in it.
As he was young and adored in showbiz, it was hardly surprising that he was impulsive.
Ashlyn glanced at him before turning to Greg. “He’s immature, so please guide him well. I’m sure he’ll improve
quickly under your guidance.”
Greg shook his head in frustration. “Ms. Berry, I’ll select the other roles based on the script. That includes the
female lead.”
