Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife

In Glanchester, Isabel had just come out of the shower and thrown herself on the bed. She thought about calling Amanda to tell her to not worry, but Amanda was the one who called her instead.

Before Isabel could get a word out, Amanda announced the good news in a jubilant voice, “Isabel, everything is fine now! The companies got back to me and says that they intend to proceed with our initial deal. The directors who told me that they wanted to recast you changed their minds and got back to me as well. Also, guess what? The famous director, Manson Heathrow, says he plans to cast you in a major role in his upcoming film!”

Isabel was delighted to hear this. “Already?”

Amanda was confused by this reaction of hers. “What do you mean ‘already’?”

Isabel was still reeling in shock. “Oh, nothing. Good to know that everything has been taken care of.”

“Alright, enough talk for now. I’ll talk to Director Manson for you and get back to you once I have more information from him.”

“Sure.”

With that, Amanda hung up.
