Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1819

Aurora nodded, looking a little self-conscious.

“That’s right. At first, I didn’t know what plans you had, and I had no idea how well the first season actually performed.”

She sounded embarrassed. “Since I’m not from this industry, I didn’t know whether a second season was even realistic. The online response was great, but what if all your shows always get that kind of reaction?”

Her emotional intelligence was undeniable.

Moments ago, the director had still been irritated.

He’d been annoyed that Aurora lacked initiative—that she needed someone else’s opinion before forming her own.

Working with an investor like that didn’t seem promising to him.

But the moment Aurora offered that well-aimed compliment, his mood shifted completely.

She was new, after all. It made sense she didn’t understand the rules or how things worked here.

With that thought, the director’s expression softened into an entirely different smile.

“You’re right. It’s normal you don’t understand how the industry operates yet.”

Aurora watched his reaction and knew she’d placed the right bet.

She continued, “Since she mentioned it, I came to ask whether the show truly did that well and whether a second season is even possible.”

“Never mind the second season for now. Did Yvonne suddenly approach you because she wants back in?”

He spoke like someone who saw straight through people.

Aurora immediately gave him a thumbs-up.

“No wonder you’re the director. You figured out what she was thinking right away.”
