Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 880: Chapter 880: Official Announcement of the New Script

But obviously, now is not the right time.

*

Selena Kensington stayed home for a few days before Asa Carter contacted her.

When she received Asa Carter’s call, Selena realized she had previously promised him to start considering a new script after giving birth.

Now that it’s been more than a month since her child’s birth, and Asa Carter just contacted her, it seems he gave her plenty of time.

However, she had overlooked this matter during this period.

Thinking of this, Selena apologized to Asa Carter with a hint of regret in her eyes.

"I’m sorry, Director Carter. I was a bit busy before and forgot about this matter."

Asa Carter’s tone remained gentle, showing no anger at Selena for forgetting.

"It’s okay, after all, being a new mother, it’s understandable to be a little overwhelmed."

Asa Carter effortlessly found a reason for Selena’s oversight in just a few words.

Hearing this, Selena felt even more grateful to Asa Carter.

It’s rare to meet a like-minded person.

While the two little ones were sleeping, Selena went to the study to discuss the script with Asa Carter.

Previously, Selena had handed over a rough draft of the script to Asa Carter, letting him refine some plot details.

Asa Carter had already completed the refinement, but considering Selena had just given birth at that time and might not have the energy to think about it, he waited until she finished her postpartum recovery before contacting her.

Looking at the refined script Asa Carter sent over on her computer, Selena took the draft beside her, reviewing the refined script while discussing the plot with Asa Carter.

Selena and Asa Carter were deeply engaged in their discussion, occasionally sparking debates over specific plot points.

Either Selena convinced Asa Carter, or Asa Carter persuaded Selena.

Both Selena and Asa Carter held high expectations for this script, so naturally, they gave it their utmost attention.

During their script discussions, they began to forget the passage of time outside.

It wasn’t until Selena faintly heard little Celeste’s cries that she snapped out of their discussion.

Selena paused for a moment, then glanced at the call duration on her phone with Asa Carter.

It had already been over two hours...

They were so caught up in their intense discussion that they lost track of time.

Hearing little Celeste’s cries, Selena temporarily lost the mood to continue.

She said to Asa Carter, "Sorry, Director Carter, let’s leave it here for today. I have something to attend to now."

Asa Carter, who was still pondering one of Selena’s recent questions, suddenly came back to the present upon hearing her words.

He glanced at the time, and although Selena didn’t specify what the matter was, Asa Carter could roughly guess.

So he nodded, "Alright, we’ll discuss it next time."

After hanging up the call, Selena hurriedly headed out of the room.

When she reached the nursery, little Celeste’s cries had just stopped.

Selena "..."

Seeing that as soon as she stepped into the room, little Celeste stopped fussing, Selena’s eyes showed a hint of helplessness.

Little Celeste probably started fussing to call her mom back upon realizing she wasn’t there after waking up.

The fussing had disturbed the originally peacefully sleeping little Seraphina.

As Selena approached, it seemed little Seraphina was somewhat annoyed with her noisy sister, trying to scoot a bit to the side.

But considering he was only over a month old, clearly, such a move was impossible.

So he could only continue enduring little Celeste’s antics.

Initially, Selena hoped the siblings could bond well, but now it seemed little Seraphina was being tormented by little Celeste.

Selena lowered her head, looking at the two little ones in the crib, and chuckled softly.

She picked up little Celeste and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

Little Celeste started laughing gleefully, "Giggling..."

Perhaps because of her mother’s affectionate action, her mood brightened up.

Selena placed her back beside little Seraphina, gently tapping little Celeste’s nose with her finger.

Speaking in a doting, gentle tone, "Little Celeste... please don’t fuss anymore. Your brother can’t sleep well because of you."

Upon hearing Selena, little Celeste blinked with a look of slight incomprehension before bursting into another wave of laughter.

Selena sighed helplessly, knowing that little Celeste probably couldn’t understand her yet.

Thus, Selena could only turn her attention to little Seraphina and then picked him up.

As usual, she planted a kiss on his cheek.

Then Selena lifted her hand, gave his cheek a gentle pinch, and said with a smile, "Little Seraphina, there’s no helping it. Since she’s your dear sister, you have to put up with her."

Little Seraphina quietly endured everything, getting kissed and pinched by his mom while also having to tolerate his sister.

Once Selena managed to settle both children and feed them, watching as they fell back asleep after their meal, she left the nursery.

Returning to the study, she continued revising the script.

Having talked with Asa Carter for over two hours earlier, Selena had gained quite a bit of inspiration.

Over the next few days, Selena made sure to spend some time every day discussing the new script with Asa Carter.

After four or five days of discussion and revision, they finally confirmed the new script.

Looking at the script that emerged from their numerous discussions, Selena felt very satisfied.

Afterward, she and Asa Carter finalized initial plans like project approval, public announcement, casting, and filming timeline.

Once all this was settled, Selena shared the news with Hugh Kensington.

Upon hearing it, Hugh was a bit surprised, "It’s finalized so quickly?"

Selena nodded, "Yes, I just had a window of time recently."

Hearing this, Hugh didn’t ask further.

"Alright, send me the script, and I’ll handle the rest."

Then Selena sent the script to Hugh.

Hugh acted swiftly, and almost immediately after the film project was approved, he couldn’t wait to announce the collaboration between Asa Carter and Selena Kensington.
