Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1772
Vermont turned to the scriptwriter, Devin Booker, and said," She's just talking nonsense. Please don't mind her."
Devin knew that Vermont was trying to smooth things over for Felicity after her inappropriate question, so he smiled and said,
"Your girlfriend is pretty interesting."
Vermont patted Felicity's head and said lovingly, "She's also really strong. She can fight three guys without any trouble."
This surprised Devin.
Felicity didn't get the answer she wanted and pushed, "Mr. Booker, do you really need to film those sensual scenes? Can a
movie win awards without them?"
Devin had no idea how to answer Felicity's question. After thinking for a bit, he said, "Some stories need physical actions to
show how feelings change.”
Felicity, who had had a bit too much to drink, found that funny. "Who watches those scenes for emotions? People just stare at
the woman's breasts or the man's butt."
"Pfft-"
Devin spurted out the water he was drinking.
Vermont was left utterly speechless.
'I shouldn't have let her drink!' Vermont thought to himself.
Felicity went on, "They're just using these things to grab attention. They know why folks watch their movies. If that's all they want,
they should just make adult films. Why use the name 'art film'? Every time I hear 'art film' now, l-Ugh-"
Vermont covered her mouth. "Baby, drink some tea and have something to eat."
Felicity pushed his hand away. "I'm not... hungry..."
Devin chuckled and gestured, "Let her be. There's no one else around. She can say whatever she wants."
Vermont sighed. "I shouldn't have opened that wine bottle."

Devin remarked, "She's really adorable. When you came with her, I thought you were introducing me to a new actress. I didn't
expect her to be a fellow scriptwriter."
Then he turned to Felicity, asking, "Which show did you write the script for?"
But Felicity, being drunk, couldn't recall any titles.
So, Vermont added, "She hasn’t got any credited shows that aired. She used to ghostwrite at Royal Deluxe Entertainment
without getting any credit."
Devin quickly grasped Felicity's situation.
Establishing connections in the industry was crucial.
Knowing the right people could make or break a scriptwriter's success, even if their skills weren't top-notch. Without connections,
even a brilliant writer might only end up ghostwriting.
Vermont mentioned a few shows Felicity had written, surprising Devin. These shows had solid reputations.
Though their viewership might not have been as high as others during their release, they received excellent feedback on various
online platforms.
Achieving such results required a good script, coupled with the production team's expertise and the actors' skills.
Felicity had been a ghostwriter for years and had a deep understanding of market trends. She knew audience preferences and
how to write across different genres. That's why after she left Royal Deluxe Entertainment, finding someone suitable for her role
became a tough challenge for the company.
A scriptwriter of her caliber wouldn't settle for the salary offered, and notably, she was an easy target for criticism. Despite years
of being denied credit for her work, she didn't dare to speak up about it.
Outside of work, Felicity was incredibly brave, always there for her friends. But professionally, she lived like many others her age
- toiling away as a struggling worker, i
She avoided confrontation whenever possible and was often fed false promises by her bosses. After being deceived for so long,
she started doubting her own abilities.

As Devin heard Vermont recount Felicity's accomplishments, he couldn't help but laugh, suggesting," Why not bring her on board
officially? Buy her scripts and turn them into movies. I'm certain you could turn them into blockbusters with your capabilities."
