After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 753

Isabella didn’t bring up the scripts right away. Instead, she sent a message to her work group, asking a few of the lead editors to come and take a look at the scripts Harold had brought over.

She and Harold sat quietly, sipping fragrant tea while they waited. Only after everyone had finished reading did they start their discussion.

Harold and Barbara weren’t exactly experts when it came to short dramas. Barbara was a shareholder at Isabella’s company, but she rarely got involved in the day-to-day. Usually, she just checked in when a new show went live to see how popular it was or how the revenue looked. Most of the time, though, she was busy with her own career. Being the Carter family’s heiress didn’t mean she could just coast. If she wanted to move up, she needed to prove herself and earn everyone’s respect. She wasn’t interested in using her family name to get ahead without putting in the work.

“Isabella, if there’s anything in the script that needs changing, just tell me. I’ll have the writer fix it,” Harold said. He still kept in touch with the screenwriter because he’d only paid a deposit so far. He wanted to wait until Isabella was happy with the scripts and agreed to work together before paying the rest. If the show ended up being a hit, he’d even promised the screenwriter a share of the profits. He hoped that would motivate them to write something truly great.

“There are definitely some parts we think need tweaking, and honestly, we might still make changes once we start filming. That happens a lot,” Isabella admitted. “We’re always adjusting the script on set.”

It was a tough gig for writers. Even after a script was approved, they might be asked to make last-minute changes while filming. The truth was, making money was hard for everyone. Nothing came easy. You had to work for it. If you wanted rewards, you had to put in the effort.

“No problem. You’re the expert here. However you want to change it, I’m good with that. Do you think these two scripts are ready to go?” Harold asked.

“They’re great. The storylines are exciting and fresh, there’s a lot of tension and drama, and the twists are really satisfying. Plus, they’re short, which viewers love. People like shows they can binge without a huge commitment.”

When they first started producing short dramas, the episodes were always limited. If a show did really well, maybe they’d make a second season. But now, more and more companies were churning out series with over a hundred episodes. Isabella still preferred shows that were short and punchy.
