Jackson Zane felt that he probably would never forget the young man standing in front of him, smiling as he said: "Want to turn your life around? I can help you."
Now, South Grant stood at Caleb Holt’s door, saying to him to do what was right for the role, regardless of what he had done before, even if they were opponents, even if it had harmed South Grant’s interests, they all let it go unmentioned.
This magnanimity, this tolerance, this audacity, Jackson Zane was completely convinced.
This magnanimity and audacity are not related to age but to his broader vision.
At this moment, Jackson Zane felt a myriad of emotions as South Grant knocked on Caleb Holt’s door.
Caleb Holt hadn’t left home these past few days, following South Grant’s instructions not to appear in public, whether it was happy, sad, hurtful, or worrying, making sure the media and fans remained unaware.
South Grant intended to send him to the army for a month’s training, awaiting his true transformation upon return.
Soon, Caleb Holt came to open the door. Seeing Jackson Zane standing outside, he was momentarily stunned, as South Grant spoke:
"Caleb, I don’t need to introduce him; you should already know him, Jackson Zane, Agent Alden."
"I know." Caleb Holt said tersely and didn’t intend to greet Jackson Zane.
Jackson Zane’s matters had just been made public online, Caleb Holt saw it too. While he knew Jackson Zane likely took the fall for both Vanguard Corporation and Hugo Lynch, Caleb Holt knew Jackson was directly involved.
South Grant observed Caleb Holt’s demeanor, knowing he was still concerned about the framed incident, so he said to Caleb Holt:
"Caleb, from now on, Alden will take care of you; he’s our ally. You should know the achievements of those he previously guided. I hope you two can cooperate well, striving to reach new heights."
Caleb Holt was quite surprised by South Grant’s words but soon understood.
Jackson Zane is indeed a famous agent in the entertainment industry, and the blame had all been placed on Jackson for the framed incident. Needless to say, he took the fall for someone.
And now that South Grant brought Jackson Zane to meet him, it must be that Jackson had been recruited.
Remembering South Grant previously saying he would arrange a new agent for him, Caleb Holt hadn’t expected it to be Jackson Zane.
Once South Grant told him that Jackson was now one of their people, Caleb Holt let go of his prejudices against him.
At that moment, he extended his hand, looking at Jackson Zane, saying:
"Alden, I’ll be relying on you in the future. Please look after me."
Jackson Zane looked at Caleb Holt’s outstretched hand and reached out to shake it.
The mutual understanding between two men was established at that moment.
South Grant and Jackson Zane entered Caleb Holt’s home, and while discussing matters inside, South Grant said to Jackson Zane:
"Alden, I trust your abilities and methods, but you’ll need to adjust these methods working with me in the future."
Jackson Zane sat on the couch at this moment, with an attitude of attentively listening, as South Grant continued:
"It’s fine to use your skills to secure resources for your artists, but things like framing rival artists cannot be done anymore. The more you walk by the riverside, the more likely it’ll be to get your feet wet. Doing these things too often will eventually get exposed, and all your previous efforts will be in vain. They’ll seize that one flaw and drag you down."
Jackson Zane scratched his head embarrassedly at this point; it was his usual style, now pointed out by South Grant.
