He Stole Me From My Deadbeat Husband Chapter 520: Side Story: A Secured Future (4)

...

Matt was too shocked to react. He thought he misheard it, "Pardon , you’re giving the role?"

"Not exactly as the male lead, but we will assign your role here," The Director added. "We will also hire you to work for a long ti. You’ll have a contract for the next ten years, and we will manage all the movies you appear in."

Matt couldn’t believe what he just heard. He thought he ruined his only chance, but he struck gold instead!

"T—Ten years? I’m going to get paid for the next ten years?!"

"Yes, your career will be in our hands for the next ten years. Of course, you won’t be able to work sowhere else or go to another casting. But don’t worry, we will ensure you are always busy."

Matt knew this golden ticket wouldn’t last long. If he didn’t accept it now, then he’d have to go through a hellish life without anyone supporting him.

He was already used to getting support. Kate supported him for almost ten years, five years when they were dating in Los Angeles, and she used almost all of her part-ti money for him, and also five years when they were married.

Too bad that bitch wasn’t grateful that she had such a huge catch like him. That’s why she left him, even though he had been a great husband to her.

This contract would be the stepping stone for him. He would be hired for even bigger gigs in the future. He would be a superstar!

And when he was finally rich, that sagging bitch would crawl back to him, though he would just kick her in the face for daring to humiliate him before.

"So, do you agree to work with us for the next ten years?" The Producer asked.

"Y—Yes, Sir! I will work as hard as I can!" Matt said as he shook their hands. Though, he knew damn well that he would eventually switch sides to find an even better company once he got popular. It was all fair and square when he would bring so much money to this company, right?

The Director and Producer exchanged glances again and had a smirk as they tried not to laugh at this stupid bastard.

"I will tell Mindy to bring the contract to you," The Director said as he grabbed his phone and called the secretary.

Mindy appeared not long after, entering the room, still with that frigid expression, showing that she truly had no respect for this man who was about to beco the moneymaker.

She walked in with a contract in her hand. She put it on the table and looked at Matt, who was still standing in the middle of the room like an idiot, "Co and sign this. You can read it, but don’t take long because I’m also busy with other things."

Matt’s expression soured

He was really angry at this disrespectful, ’Just because you’re pretty doesn’t an that you can treat like shit, you dumb bitch,’ Matt cursed while he walked to check on the contract.

Unfortunately, the contract was at least thirty pages in total, and there was no way he could read all of those in one go.

He hesitated for a mont.

Though Matt wasn’t exactly a genius, he knew he had to be more careful because this was a ten-year contract he couldn’t annul.

He kept reading, but his focus was shattered when he was watched by three people in this room.

He felt like a prisoner about to sign his death. So he turned around and asked, "Can I bring this ho? I will read this first at ho and submit it tomorrow morning..."

"Can’t do," Mindy said. "My Boss said that you must sign it right now, or we will find soone else."

"B—But that’s so abrupt. What if it has sothing that will put at a disadvantage!" Matt protested. Though this was his first ti signing a serious work contract, he had heard enough of people in this big circle having to work under unfair wages and extre workloads.

He wanted to be a gastar surrounded by many won. How could he have his dream life when he would always be swamped with work?!

"Then this contract is not for you, Mr. Woods," Mindy said. She walked towards Matt as she wanted to snatch that docunt, but Matt shifted his body to block her way as he knew this was his only lifeline.

"No, I will sign this. I just—"

"My Boss is busy. You’re not the only one who wants the contract. We can offer this to soone else, and that new actor will sign it imdiately," Mindy said.

As the pressure began to get to him, he looked at the Director and Producer, who still had a frown on their faces, as if they disliked the fact that Matt was delaying their work.

"I am a busy man, Mr. Woods," the Director said. "You’re an amazing and talented actor, but that doesn’t an you’re irreplaceable."

"Yes, if you don’t want to sign that paper, then let’s just drop all of this, and you can leave. There are thousands of actors, new and experienced, wanting that contract.

Matt’s back began to feel cold. He was sweating because the pressure began to get into him. He was obviously scared that he would get trapped in an unfair contract, which wasn’t unusual in the entertainnt circle.

But he also didn’t want to lose his only chance in life.

Thus, amid his panic, he began to sign the contract. He skipped reading entirely in fear that he would miss out, and after he signed everything, he handed it back to Mindy, who now had a satisfied and gentle smile, far from what she had shown just a minute ago.

"Thank you for signing everything, Mr. Woods. Welco to the Empress Picture Entertainnt. Since you are the first major actor we signed, we want to invite you to et with our CEO."
