CHAPTER 145;

  "So it's like this. Laura Davies and Victoria Kaur are both splendid choices on your part. Young, capable, hard-working actors like them are rare nowadays. Especially Victoria – her acting is not something you would expect from someone at her age."

  As expected, Nathan continued, "The entire cast of 'The Youth' is going to be cleared off over the next two months. I have a friend who's got a new project to film, but he's a young director without much fame, and it's hardly any big production. But he's taken a liking to Victoria and wanted her to join the film as the female lead. As you're close with Victoria, could you help persuade her?"

  Zoe chuckled.

  "That's a good thing! Why don't you tell Victoria herself? Don't you meet each other every day on set? You should have more chances to talk to each other!"
