Chapter 560
As the car arrived at Hackett Manor, Alex assisted Levi out of the car.
Marve, surprised, blurted out, “You can walk now?”
Realizing her bluntness, she quickly corrected herself. “I mean…”
“I can stand, but walking is still difficult.
Levi, now seated in the wheelchair, responded calmly, “Whether I use my legs or not doesn’t make much difference to me, so there’s no need to avoid the topic.”
His perspective was always unconventional.
Noticing there was no butler around, Maeve took the initiative to push his wheelchair. Once they reached the study on the second floor, she sat opposite him in unease.
“Since you’re debuting, you’ll need a professional team,” Levi began. “Hackett Entertainment will provide you with the best resources. You don’t need to achieve extraordinary success, just enough to be profitable”
“Mr. Hackett, your expectations for me are quite modest,” Maeve remarked.
“Well, I’m an optimist.”
She forced a smile in return as Levi continued, “To generate buzz, you’ll need to participate in variety shows while waiting for your movie production. This will help build your fan base.”
“Like what?”
“Hi, My Ex, Levi suggested.
Maeve chuckled at the title. “Mr. Hackett, this variety show.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“It’s a new project by Hackett Entertainment, and I believe it suits you,” he explained
“My ex
Levi interjected, “Sergio Brooks.”
“We-”
“Are divorced,” Levi cut in again, and Marve’s smile faded.
She hadn’t anticipated Levi knowing about her divorce agreement with Sergio so soon, considering only a few people were privy to the information.
He elaborated, “The show will take about one or two months to film. It won’t take up much of your time.
“According to your agreement with Sergio, you’ll publicly announce the divorce in six months. It’s already been over a month since then. By the time the show airs, the news of your divorce will likely be public.”
“Mr. Hackett, the audience isn’t naïve. They’ll know when we were filming a
filming and that we weren’t divorced at that time,” Maeve pointed out.
“The show is called “Hi, My Ex.” Why do you think I invited you and Sergio to participate?” Levi asked.
Maeve frowned at his question.
There have been numerous cases where divorced couples feigned affection on shows, deceiving the audience, and those situations never ended well. If their separation agreement became public knowledge later, it could damage Maeve’s reputation and potentially harm Mirage Group.
However, by participating in “Hi, My Ex“, they could preemptively reveal their separation and the reasons behind it, potentially garnering sympathy and understanding from the public.
Maeve was once again struck by Levi’s strategic thinking.
He had anticipated the potential fallout over the next six months and already devised a plan to manage
ge it, minimizing losses and maximizing their gains.
“I admit, Mr. Hackett, your plan is well thought out. But I’m not sure if Sergio will agree. He’s a very busy man,” Maeve said cautiously.
