Mr. Smith had been captivated by Jessica's work from the very first glance, and the more pieces he saw, the more eager he became to have her on his project.

"Ines, could you reach out to her as soon as possible? My film's biggest investor is Timothy he called me asking if I could arrange a role for someone. He's never asked me for anything before. If we really can't get in touch with Jessica, I'll have no choice but to agree to Timothy's request."
