Chapter 2037
Isabel arrived with several actors and the director. Just as she was about to greet the producers, she noticed
Decker standing with them. He was wearing an expensive suit and smiled handsomely at everyone.
All of the female staff of the hotel and the film crew could not take their eyes off of him. Even some of the
actresses were immediately obsessed with him as well.
Isabel frowned.
What was this scum of a man doing here?
Meanwhile, the director and the actor who played the male lead went to greet the producer.
The producer promptly gestured at Decker who was standing with him and introduced him to everyone, "This here
is Mr. Decker. He is the biggest investor of the show."
The director and the male lead instinctively darted a glance at Isabel before wiping away the look and greeting
Decker politely.
It was public knowledge that Isabella had, at one point, tried to steal the female lead role of the "Legend of the
Goddess" from Isabel. Additionally, rumors of Isabella being connected to Decker were slowly spreading online as
well. It was not hard for one to connect the dots and figure out that Decker was the one who was backing Isabella
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwith his influence.
This left them to wonder why would Decker bother to continue investing in the show now that his plans had been
foiled and Isabel had taken back the female lead.
As curious as they were, they knew better than to ask unnecessary questions. After greeting Decker, they went to
the producer again and darted a tactful glance at Isabel.
They were eager to see how Isabel would greet the rumored benefactor of Isabella who had tried to steal the
female lead role from her.
Considering Decker's significant status, they assumed that even someone of Isabel’s temperament would greet him
perfunctorily, at least just for appearances.
As for Decker, he had his sights locked on Isabel since the moment she stepped into the venue. He smiled
provocatively at her the entire while.
Isabel threw him a sideways glance. When she noticed the director and the male lead actor approaching the
producer, she quickened her pace and went up to the producer to greet him, "Good evening, Malone.”
Malone was the name of the producer who was quite famous in the industry.
’’Good evening." Malone returned a quick greeting while gesturing at Decker, "This is-"
Before he could finish his sentence, Isabel had walked past him and gone elsewhere.
Malone was speechless.
The rest of them who were curious to see how Isabel would interact with Decker were equally baffled.
The atmosphere suddenly thickened.
Malone quickly gathered himself and hurriedly apologized to Decker, "Mr. Decker, Isabel probably has something
important to attend to and didn't notice you. I apologize to you on her behalf."
Decker smiled faintly. "It's okay.”
Malone was startled by his benevolence and heaved a sigh of relief. He was not expecting such a reaction from
Decker.
Isabel was acquainted with many other actors in the show.
After her brief exchange with Malone, she started mingling with the other actors.
Shortly after, the director approached her to tell her, ’Isabel, dinner is about to start. Come and sit with me."
Since she played the female lead, it was only natural that she would sit with the director and the producer of the
show.
Isabel was aware of this as well, so she obliged and went to their table.
On the way there, the director cautioned her in a hushed whisper, "Isabel, I know you don’t get along very well with
Mr. Decker, but he is the biggest investor in the show.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMalone told me to inform you to at least keep up appearances later and make sure you don't embarrass Mr.
Decker."
Isabel frowned. She was not afraid to offend Decker, but she had to consider the director's and the producer's
positions. The director was telling her this because they were afraid of upsetting Decker unintentionally.
With this in mind, she assured him, “I understand. I'll keep that in mind.”
The director smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.
Decker was already seated when Isabel and the director arrived. He was seated on the right edge of the table,
directly across from Malone.
The other actors and crew members had taken their seats as well.
There were two empty seats next to Decker, and those were the only empty seats left.
Isabel was annoyed by the mere sight of Decker and unsurprisingly opted to not sit next to him. She was one step
ahead of the director and chose the empty seat that was not directly next to Decker's, leaving a gap between her
and Decker.
The director did not seem too bothered by this. After all, it was nothing out of the ordinary for the director to sit
with a major investor of the show.
