Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 319

Chapter 319 Caught in the Crossfire

“So, the condition of your cooperation with GK Pictures is to make them the female leads?”

“That is basically that, like what you said.” Mr. Simpson chuckled, his voice sounding a bit diffident.

Gilbert sneered and said nothing more.

“Mr. Kooper, let’s think about it; they have popularity and reputation the best among the actresses. Make them the female leads, and we will invest. In the end, it will be you who get the most benefits,” Mr. Russell

said.

“Absolutely, Mr. Kooper.” Mr. Park also had

something to say. “This is a win-win opportunity for both sides. It is better to use them instead of casting those actresses embroiled in scandals as the female leads.”

Lola smiled smugly. The other actresses also looked at Gilbert with anticipation. They were famous, but most of them were only the female leads in small

budget web series. If they could star in a GK drama, their status in the entertainment industry would be raised several notches. This was a once-in-a-lifetime

opportunity for them.

Everyone was waiting for Gilbert’s answer. Kisa and Jensen felt as if they did not exist. It now dawned on Kisa that the investors only wanted to work with GK, and they invited her and Jensen probably because they just wanted them to be substitutes.

She looked over at Jensen and saw him sipping on his drink with a smile without the slightest upset. Seeing this, Kisa said nothing and just silently watched on.

Gilbert leaned back in his chair and looked at the four

actresses expressionlessly. “GK Pictures is a brand with history and reputation; are you all thinking of ruining GK’s image by making actresses without acting skills the female leads of my GK drama?”

“Who are you saying has no acting skills?” Lola stood up in defiance and pointed at Kisa. “We are the most skilled actresses, unlike her. If she can be the lead actress in a big production, why can’t we?”

Kisa had no words. She was eating in silence, yet still caught in the crossfire.

Gilbert glanced at Kisa with a chuckle and said to Lola, “She founded the J & K Film Group. She can be the female lead of her own drama, and no one can say anything. If you don’t like it, you can ask your family to set up a film and media company for you, and then you can be the lead actress as much as you want

instead of fawning on these few investors.”

“You…” Lola’s face turned red with anger.

Mr. Simpson pulled her to sit down and smiled at Gilbert. “So, Mr. Kooper, doesn’t this mean you won’t work with us?”

Gilbert chuckled. “It is you guys who don’t want to work with GK Pictures, isn’t it?”

Mr. Simpson was not too happy, but did not show it. He glanced at the other investors and then turned his attention to Kisa. “What is your stand on this, Ms. Becker?”

Kisa was eating her food in silence. When she noticed all eyes were on her, she panicked for a few seconds. But soon she calmed down, slowly put down her cutlery, and smiled at the investors. “As Mr. Kooper just said, if the J & K Film Group wants to work with you, we will have to make the four of them the leads in the drama, right?”

“That is exactly what I mean. We are also trying to make everyone win. It all depends on whether you will agree to this condition. If so, we can sign the contract right now.”

Gilbert snickered and continued to sip on his wine.
