Relentless Pursuit After Divorce

Chapter 2227: Chapter 2227: The Young Ones’ Love Is So Sweet (140)

"Yes, Mr. Turnbaugh, I am Laura Jones, you can call me Laura or Jones."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Turnbaugh immediately set aside his laptop and stood up from his chair, showing a noticeably different attitude towards her.

"Young lady, impressive! Such a young age and able to write stories like this. If I hadn’t seen you personally, I’d think someone my age had written it."

Mr. Turnbaugh had read "Seeking for the Noble," and thus, he greatly admired the author’s writing prowess and storytelling ability.

Now, discovering the original author is such a young girl, he admired her even more.

Even before starting collaboration, he felt an urge to introduce Laura Jones to the industry, saying:

"Young lady, are you interested in becoming a screenwriter? I can guide you, and in the future, I can hand over suitable scripts for you to write."

Laura Jones was a bit overwhelmed by Mr. Turnbaugh’s enthusiastic attitude and quickly responded:

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Turnbaugh, but I’m still in school. Aside from holidays, I don’t have much time to write novels, let alone scripts."

Saying this, she scratched her head apologetically and said:

"My dad doesn’t want me to be running around with the film crew..."

She bowed slightly to Mr. Turnbaugh, "Thank you."

Though Laura Jones didn’t fully commit to her words, it was clear she was rejecting Mr. Turnbaugh’s offer.

Despite feeling regret, Mr. Turnbaugh didn’t insist, simply saying:

"That’s truly a pity. If you change your mind later, feel free to reach out to me."

Saying this, he handed Laura Jones his business card.

Laura Jones accepted it with both hands and thanked him again.

This scene was coincidentally seen by Emma Williams, who followed them, adding a hint of jealousy to her heart.

Mr. Turnbaugh is very renowned in the industry, with numerous famous film investors, top directors, and leading actors having offered high prices for his scripts.

Emma Williams had especially tried to reach out to him, hoping to build some rapport.

In the future, once she entered the circle, she might have the chance to star in his scripts and rise to fame.

However, Mr. Turnbaugh completely ignored her, speaking politely but never discussing anything substantial with her.

After multiple attempts, she started to feel disheartened.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Turnbaugh valued Laura Jones so much, even inviting her into the industry and offering to mentor her.

This was an unparalleled honor for Laura Jones, and she had the audacity to refuse it.

Thinking writing one novel made her tail wag to the sky, disregarding everyone?

Emma Williams smirked coldly inside, approaching Laura Jones and Mr. Turnbaugh.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she couldn’t disguise her provocation, "Laura, you’re really bold, for someone like Mr. Turnbaugh inviting you into the industry, how could you be so ignorant to refuse him? You know, even when I wanted to learn from Mr. Turnbaugh, he didn’t agree. You’re way too..."

Saying this, she looked at Laura Jones with disapproval, revealing a hint of accusation in her eyes.

With this move, she wanted to stir up dissatisfaction within Mr. Turnbaugh and please him simultaneously.

Seizing the opportunity, she hoped Mr. Turnbaugh would take her as his student.

Though she hadn’t written a novel herself, she was, after all, a top student in the Chinese department, surely she could write one?
