Chapter: 386
Then without another word, he hung up the phone.
Once more, Ariana attempted to call, but his phone was switched off.
She glanced at the name beside the phone number on the email and noticed it was the same as the
director’s name.
So, she decided to call Horace instead.
“Hello, Mrs. Anderson. This is Horace.”
Upon hearing this, Ariana felt slightly embarrassed. She couldn’t figure out why Horace had recently
switched from addressing her as Ms. Edwards to Mrs. Anderson, but she didn’t have time to inquire
about it. She went straight to the point. “Can you help me look into a director named Jayson Spears?”

“Thank you.” Ariana ended the call cheerfully. It was no wonder Horace was such a skilled assistant.
He could handle any task like a superhero. She secretly wished she could lure him away from
Theodore.
Soon enough, she received information about Jayson on her phone.
A minor director with a degree from a lesser-known college, he had been in the industry for five years
and had only directed a handful of obscure web dramas.
Late last year, he founded a small studio. There were pictures of the establishment included in the
information.
Ariana quickly scanned the photos and read about the recent developments. Three months prior,
Jayson started recruiting actors for a script he claimed to have meticulously prepared for three years.
However, due to his low budget and his own lack of popularity, progress had been slow.
At a later time, without explanation, the studio shut down and some of the well-prepared staff were let
go, signaling the suspension of the project.
It appeared that the script Ariana had just read was the one Jayson had been diligently working on for
three years.
At that moment, Horace sent another message. “I discovered that Jayson is heavily in debt, and his
properties and vehicles are being sold at a discount.”
With a general understanding of the situation, Ariana tracked down all the web dramas Jayson had
directed.
She spent an entire day watching them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe following day, Ariana called Horace once more and said, “I need to ask Jayson something, but I
can’t seem to reach him. Do you have any other ways to contact him?”
Horace seemed puzzled. “Why are you so insistent on connecting with this individual, Mrs. Anderson?
If you’re looking for a good project for Tyler, I can help you get in touch with some talented up-and-
coming directors.”
Although Horace could even call upon internationally renowned directors affiliated with the BRD Group
to assist Ariana, he hesitated to mention this option. Such an excellent opportunity to impress Ariana
was reserved for his boss.
He added, “If you truly value that script, I can ask the company to purchase it.
Jayson is in need of money right now, so he might be willing to sell it.”
