Chapter 1192 How Is It Fair?
At this point, Director Moen was too fed up to say anything. With everything in order and publicity buzz at its peak
now, he couldn't believe he had to reconvene all the actors and crew members, shoot a new ending, and relaunch
the promotional campaign. He was exasperated that Gareth had made it an unbearable burden for everyone.
The director felt his blood pressure rise. Taking a deep breath, he called out, "Mr. May..."
Knowing that the director was about to appeal emotionally, Thomas interrupted, "Director Moen, I've already made
myself clear. Mr. Wickham will support your career if you agree to his request. Can you afford to reject such an
opportunity?"

Although he was aware that yielding to Gareth's request would earn him a lot of favor in the future, he couldn't
bring himself to compromise on the ending of his beloved film. He had spent endless hours perfecting it through
intense deliberation.
He had overworked himself and spent a small fortune to make it happen. He even went to great lengths to convince
the lead actor to take the role, knowing that few could do justice to such a challenging script. And now, it was all
going to be for nothing because of Mr. Wickam's insistence on changing the ending.
The director was at his wit's end.
Thomas continued to persuade him, "I know it's tough to think about changing the ending you worked so hard on,
but every decision has its pros and cons. By the way, Mr. Wickam just messaged me."
As Thomas spoke, he glanced at the new message that had just come in. Director Moen asked, puzzled, "What did
he say?"
"Mr. Wickam said that from now on, he will fully invest in every drama you make. So, you won't have to worry about
sponsors anymore," Thomas replied.
Director Moen's expression shifted. This was a tempting offer. Pulling sponsors was never easy for him because he
always opted for authenticity. This meant that the possibility of accidents on set always loomed, leading many
potential sponsors deemed impractical and a waste of money.
Gareth was always a man of his word. Seeing Director Moen hesitate, Thomas said softly, "If you have no problem
with this, we can draw up the contract immediately."
Director Moen's eyes flickered, and after a few more breaths, he sighed, "This movie is really my pride and joy. We

supported the reunion. Still, I insisted on trying a separation to take a risk. Now that it's been released, can we at
least let it play for two days and see how it goes?"
"I'm afraid that's not what Mr. Wickam wants," Thomas said calmly.
Director Moen was caught off guard and responded with a hint of desperation, "I never intended for it to come
across that way. It's just a typical love-hate dynamic. Mr. Wickam must have misinterpreted it, and I..."
Director Moen bit his tongue to prevent himself from saying, "This is unfair to me!" He understood there was no
point in arguing with those who held more power.
Thomas reassured him with a smile, "Director Moen, I assure you that changing the ending won't impact you much.
In fact, you'll never have to worry about funding again. Isn't that a great idea?"
