Chapter 879: Don't worry, I will be back!

Jason Pearson's only hope was Boss Chadwick.

Since Monica Baldwin's agency contract was in the hands of Victor Chadwick, he had approached Victor in the hope that Victor could convince Monica to star as the female lead in "Purgatory." Without her, he did not have the desire to proceed with the production.

"I'm sorry, Director Pearson, I think I too must decline," Victor replied politely, "because my wife is pregnant. At present, she has sufficient energy to focus on behind-the-scenes work but it's understandably impractical for her to take on action roles."

Jason Pearson was taken aback; it had not occurred to him that Monica would refuse the role for that reason.

"Ah, it's indeed a great pity."

Although Jason Pearson was unwilling to take no for an answer, Boss Chadwick's words left him no choice but to give up.

Thankfully, Boss Chadwick was there to comfort him.

"In that case, all I can do is wish Monica well."
