Upon hearing Samantha's words, the assistant, Mike Bates, felt a wave of confusion wash over her. "Why would you treat Sylvan so well?"
"Why, you ask? It's because I know he's been wronged. And because I want to sign him as an artist. He's the one I've set my sights on, and I want to help him."
Mike voiced his concerns. "But Ms. Wallace, even if Sylvan is innocent, you can't sign a contract without any evidence. I'm really worried that one wrong move could bite you in the *ss."
In her past life, she had made far too many wrong decisions. Given a second chance, she refused to repeat those errors. To her, Sylvan was not a mistake; he was a trump card.
She needed Sylvan to help the director return to the film industry, and she aimed to help Sylvan reclaim his title as Best Actor.
In just a year, Sylvan would undoubtedly rise to stardom. She intended to leverage everything she knew from her previous life to seize this opportunity to break into the entertainment world. Samantha fixed her gaze on Mike. "You needn't say anything further. I've made up my mind. Find Sylvan for me."
Though he harbored countless reservations, he dared not contradict Samantha due to her status. With a reluctant nod, he set out to locate Sylvan.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, thanks to Mike's help. Samantha found Sylvan. She learned through Mike's investigation why he was so desperate for money
It turned out that Nickson had developed a gambling addiction and had accumulated a debt of 200,000 dollars in high-interest loans. If the money wasn't repaid by the next day, he would lose a hand. The blood on Sylvan's clothes belonged to Nickson's wife.
Nickson's wife had been pushed by the debt collectors, resulting in a miscarriage. She was still in the hospital, unconscious and fighting for her life.
With nowhere else to turn, Sylvan sought help from his former friends in the entertainment industry and even reached out to his ex-girlfriend for assistance. Yet they refused to lend him a dime and humiliated him in the process. After hearing Mike's account, Samantha rushed to the hospital to pay for the medical expenses of Nickson's wife. Only after that did she take a cab to Sylvan's residence.
When Samantha arrived at the dilapidated building, it struck her as utterly inconceivable that a once- prominent actor now resided in such a rundown placeContent held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Following the provided address, she entered Sylvan's home, only to find chaos. The debt collectors had returned, Nickson lay bloodied from the beating he had received, and Sylvan himself was sprawled on the floor.
As he lay there, he looked up at the menacing figures demanding payment. Even if you kill me today. I still won't have the money to give you Either grant me more time or end it for both my brother and ine O

Nickson, bruised and battered, looked incredulously at Sylvan. "How can you say that? I'm your flesh and blood! How can you just stand there and watch as they kill me?"
Disappointment flooded Sylvan's eyes as he faced Nickson. "What else do you expect me to do? I'm not that high-and-mighty actor anymore. I'm broke. My reputation has been ruined because of you. I can't come up with 200,000 dollars to save you!" Nickson, undeterred, retorted shamelessly. "Even if you're no longer the star you once were, you've met so many actors in the past. You could ask them to lend you money. If that doesn't work, why not turn to your fans? Didn't you have a lot of devoted female fans back then? So why not trick them into giving you money?"
