Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence by Ken Slaner

Chapter: 391

Ariana sighed as she watched Jayson’s melancholy. “In my opinion, nothing has to do with the way you

do your thing. Actors and actresses, as well as scriptwriters and directors, need a solid foundation in

the entertainment business to achieve stardom.”

“Well, I can’t agree more.” Jayson’s expression betrayed his reluctance to admit defeat. His

outstretched hands on the table clenched into fists. “I also convinced Julissa to give The Missing Body

to other well-known filmmakers so that they could help publicize it. Yet Julissa never stopped believing

in me, and she never trusted that anybody else could make the movie any better than I could. We had

to put away cash since nobody put any money into it. For this reason, I have done a variety of awful

works in the past few years. I just can’t wait to be able to afford to film this script!”

Jayson’s grin was becoming increasingly sour as time went on. He sipped his cold latte and continued

in a raspy voice, “Unfortunately, just when we had the money and were ready to begin putting the team

together, Julissa was diagnosed with chronic leukemia. I had to drop everything and focus on finding a

treatment for Julissa and selling off my real estate. So longas the sale of the property in my name goes

through without a hitch, I should have just enough money for the first round of treatment. Later on, I will

continue working and make as much money as I can, and I will also shoot any kind of film. We will

surely restart The Missing Body as soon as Julissa recovers, so long as the script is kept. Therefore, I

said no when Jasper wanted to buy the script’s copyright from me. But Jasper is sneaky as hell!”

Jayson, who had previously been in a steady mood, displayed his anger now. As he mentioned

Jasper’s name, he clenched his teeth.

“What the heck did Jasper do to you? Huh?” Ariana asked, noticing his mood shift.

“I refused to sell him the script. So he made it impossible for me to sell my vehicle and property, and

then he manipulated the bank into denying me a loan so that I would be forced to sell him the script.

For countless times, I have wanted to compromise, but I can’t swallow my anger and end up holding on

to it.” Whenever Jayson thought of Jasper’s haughty face, his anger would rise. The man had said a lot

of harsh words in front of Julissa. For this reason alone, Jayson would never sell the script to such a

jerk!

“And I learned that Vin Diaz is Jasper’s scriptwriter. He has a reputation for filming absurd dramas and

making random, uninformed changes to the original scripts.

Julissa’s The Missing Body is a reflection of her father’s life. 1 won’t allow any changes to be made to

the script by some fool; therefore we kept on waiting.”

“[ hate to say it, but Jasper is a damn pig!” Ariana was as well fuming by now.

“You just questioned my willingness to sell the script at this time. For the simple reason that we just

cannot wait any longer. I’ve exhausted my resources and can’t do anything except this. If you hadn’t

shown up today, I probably would have made a deal with Jasper and sold it to him.”

Ariana said, enraged, “Have no fear, Mr. Spears. Knowing your predicament, | refuse to let Jasper

cause any more inconveniences on your side. Let me figure out a way to get you out of this mud.”

With a shared foe to rally against, the conversation became smoother.

Jayson thought Ariana would buy the script and wanted to discuss the deal, but to his surprise, Ariana

declined.

“As I said, what I value most is your skill as a director. The script is the result of your and your wife’s

laborious work, which is analogous to a kid you have reared with great care. You are the only one who

can really make the most of this script, in my opinion. I really pray that you will not give it up.”

After some consideration, Jayson eventually said, “My apologies, Ms. Edwards. It’s touching that you

want to give a hand, but all I want to do is be with my wife. I’m all that she has. As she goes through

her worst days, I don’t want her to have to face the world alone.” ©

Ariana understood, and she did not continue to urge Jayson, saying in a coded manner, “I hope you will

consider it when you go back to the ward. We’re not in a hurry to make a decision. I have covered the

cost of treatment. You can put your mind at ease and stop stressing about it. Take it as a loan. If you

still aren’t willing to work with me, that’s fine. As soon as your financial situation improves, you can

begin making payments.” ©

“I don’t know how to thank you, Ms. Edwards!” Jayson felt tremendous gratitude toward Ariana. His

family and friends had been avoiding him ever since Julissa’s illness had begun out of concern that he

would borrow money from them. People’s heartless and kind aspects were both familiar to Jayson. He

was grateful that someone was ready to help him at the moment, which was perhaps his lowest. He

would never forget what Ariana did for his wife!

She gave him her phone number and left, and Jayson returned to the ward only to find the bed vacant!

Seeing that, he suddenly lost his mind. He turned around, seized a nurse, and demanded indignantly,

“Where is my wife?! Where… What happened to her? The ward costs have been covered. Why did you

remove her from the ward?”

The nurse was afraid to the point that she nearly dropped the equipment in her hands. She fumbled,

“Mrs… Mrs. Spears is in the senior ward on the sixth floor, Mr. Spears. To see her, go upstairs. The

ward number is 603.”

Jayson was in a trance for a second and then felt his frustration melt away. Slowly, he replied with two

words. “Thank you.”

A sigh of relief escaped the nurse’s lips as she stroked her chest. She gave a pitiful sigh and cast her

eyes to the man’s back as he walked off.
