Chapter 50

You got this Mrs. Steyn.” He smiled playfully and then slapped my ass for good measure.

I gave him a playful glare before focusing back on getting ready. This was my time to shine.

“You got this Adelaide,” I said to myself in the mirror.

We were in the big leagues now,

I sat across the table from Brandon and two of the other producers for the movie-Matt and Steve. The

jitters hadn’t kicked in fully until I entered Brandon’s office. The tea I had been offered was still sitting

on the coffee table in the center of the large room.

Lyrica studio was impressive and unlike anywhere I had worked. I had been given a tour of the facilities

and all the company had to offer. I saw sets and make-up rooms that Jenna and Lucas could only

dream of working on.

Being here without them was a little bittersweet for me but I had hoped 1 could bring them along with

me on this journey.

“So,” Brandon clapped his hands together bringing all the attention to him. “We collectively love your

work, Adelaide. We see how you’re able to draw out the emotion from your actors and truly make a

storytelling masterpiece.”

“Thank you”

“That being said, Matt took over now. “We would like to extend the offer for you to join the Mavelyn

project.”

I was sure that if I had been sipping on that tea right then and there I would have spit it out.

“The Mavelyn project? As in the Mavelyn series’ The number one best-selling book series after Harry

Potter? You want me

to direct the movies?”

“We’ll start with the first one.” Steve took over for the three men. “And if we can get the numbers in the

box office then the

series is VOLLEY

This was a huge deal. The Mavelyn series had a huge fan base. It was the world that had been created

by the ever-talented Emma Macklen

I was one of her fans and had read every single book in the series. I knew it back to front and loved

every single second of it. And now they wanted me to bring it to life in film?

“We know it’s a big undertaking but we can’t think of anyone other than you, Adelaide.”

This was the opportunity of a lifetime. This could truly make or break my entire career. But with great

gain came high risk and I didn’t know if I could risk myself like this.

When would I ever get the chance to work on such a groundbreaking project again?

“I’ll do it.” I smiled, “But I do have a few conditions.”

“Name it and it’s yours.”

I smiled.

Looks like I had a new adventure on my hands.
