The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 706

"Got it! I'm on it!" Ronald ended the call and dialed Jane without missing a beat.

Jane had been caught up in Winter's recent drama and had not had much work recently. She was deep asleep when her phone jolted her awake. Groggy, she picked up. "Hello?"

"It's me!"

At the sound of the caller's voice, Jane bolted upright, instantly wide awake. "M-Mr. Wells? What's up? Why are you calling so late?"

"Bring Winter to Royal Star Entertainment tomorrow," Ronald instructed firmly. "It's important she's there."

"Bring Winter? With all the gossip swirling around her lately, and with Mr. Hoffman..." Jane hesitated. "Mr. Wells, does this mean Mr. Hoffman is stepping up?"

"Did you forget that Winter's still the main actress for Saint Di? We've put that off long enough, and Saint Di's launching new products early next year. Do you want all the company's investment to just go down the drain by delaying the ad even more?"

"Saint Di?" Jane gasped in disbelief. "I thought the endorsement was a no-go..." She had been certain that after the recent fiasco, the deal was dead in the water. Yet here was Ronald on the phone, telling her that Winter was still their girl. That left Jane confused.

Normally, after a mess like that, a company would wash its hands of the person involved and call it a day. To keep the endorsement going was beyond generous.

"You have a problem with Mr. Hoffman's decision?"

"No way! Not at all! I'll bring Winter over first thing tomorrow." Jane let out a relieved breath. "Anything else, Mr. Wells?"

"For real?" Winter could not contain her excitement at the first piece of news.

She had been cooped up at home lately, too scared to step outside while waiting for word from Royal Star Entertainment. However, they were radio silent, leaving Winter on edge.

She had thought about reaching out to Xavier for help, but after several unanswered calls, she got the hint. Winter was not one to be snubbed. If Xavier was going to play it cool, she would freeze him out for a bit too.

In her mind, once this whole mess blew over, Xavier would see she was the victim, and she would be the one calling the shots again.

However, as the silence from Royal Star Entertainment dragged on, Winter's hope had started to fade.
