At night, Delphine slept fitfully. The appearance of the Squire siblings stirred up those long-buried memories.
She tossed and turned sleeplessly, smoking three cigarettes in a row to suppress the desolation and fear within her.
In the morning, Kyla Zamora sent her several scripts to choose from and informed her that the payment for "Twin Flowers" had been settled—a total of 200,000. If the film performed well, the studio could still earn dividends later.
Delphine checked her account and saw the 200,000 payment had indeed been deposited. As for the dividends from the movie, the studio had Ignatius Leclair's backing behind the scenes. This money wasn't hers to take, and she didn't want to accept anything from Ignatius Leclair anyway.
The arrival of the remuneration gave Delphine a bit of peace of mind, but it wasn't enough. She had been resting too long and needed to continue filming to earn more money.
