Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 552 Ridiculous Pay

After saying everything, Ronald realized that he was being a little emotional, and he waved his hand, ending the topic abruptly. “Let me lead you there.”

Soon, they all reached Jack’s trailer, and Jack placed down his script to greet them. “Why are you here?”

“We’re here to visit you,” Alexander said. “I heard that you’re having a hard time at the set recently.”

Elise gave Jack a nod and greeted him before walking over naturally and picking up his script to flip through it.

Meanwhile, Jack cast Ronald a stare and said in disgruntlement, “The entertainment industry is a trap. Nobody can be popular all their lives. At least, I can still pick my own scripts. If this doesn’t work out, I can work behind the scenes, focus on writing songs, and still support myself.”

“Since when did you, the best actor, lower your requirements so much?” Elise said teasingly and placed the script back on the table. “This drama is not bad.”

A faint smile appeared on Jack’s face. “I’m not lowering my requirements, but just sticking to my bottom line. There are way too many crappy films and dramas which were proposed to me. If I wanted to make money, I could have accepted all of it, but I don’t want to ruin my own name.”

Patting him heavily on his shoulder, Alexander praised, “You’re right. It’s quality over quantity.”

Jack grinned and asked directly, “Why are you looking for me?”

Shrugging, Alexander raised his brows and gazed at Elise, who was opposite him. “Your future sister-in-law has something to ask you.”
