Hearing that there was news about May, Erin felt glad. Despite their strained relationship, she was still family, after all."Where is my cousin, Mr. Dunn?" Erin asked eagerly.Sean was clearly displeased. "What did you call me?"Upon hearing his question, Erin remembered something and changed her way of addressing him. "Sean.""Now that's better. Don't worry, your cousin is fine. The information we gathered shows that she went to Fleuverton City yesterday. It seems she went with the director of the casting group for the movie Roman is shooting. Maybe you'll run into her at the film studio."This news surprised her greatly. May was going to act in a movie!Erin said, "I see. What matters most is that she's fine. She's better off acting in a movie than wasting her time with some rich heir."Laughing, Sean teased, "That's hard to say. Extras are a mixed bunch. Your cousin doesn't have any backing or acting experience. While there may be shortcuts for young girls like her that can
On the second day, Erin and Roman arrived at DragonSky Studios early in the morning for the opening ceremony.Erin stood with a group of other actors' assistants, watching the main actors, director, and producer of the film uncover the cloth that was covering the main camera to signify that the film shooting would officially start.Roman, Matthew, Megan, and ten other main actors were dressed in ancient costumes. They would start filming right away after the opening ceremony.The film "Fox" told the fantasy story of a fox spirit from over a thousand years ago. It seduced the monarch and brought calamity to the country and its people. Roman played the upright prince who wasn't seduced by the fox spirit and teamed up with Matthew, who played the general, to fight demons. Megan played the fox spirit that was both benevolent and evil at the same time. At first, she only wanted the prince, but later on, her love would turn into hatred, and she would plot to destroy the prince's kingdom.
May threw the magazine she held on the floor before leaving. Erin stared at it for a full five minutes, unable to muster the courage to look at it. Finally, after she exhausted her patience, she walked over and picked up the magazine.Startlingly, she saw a photo of Chandler and Alana together in the most famous business celebrity magazine in the country. The photo was taken in Chandler's study. The two of them looked like a match made in heaven. They were like the moon and stars, making one marvel at how God created two people so perfect for each other.Chandler, with his extremely handsome face, had a radiant smile that could light up a galaxy. Alana, with her captivating beauty, leaned affectionately in his arms. They both looked dazzlingly beautiful.With a heavy thump, the magazine slipped from Erin's hands and fell to the ground. She felt a wave of weakness and dizziness. She'd known all along that Chandler would hold that engagement banquet. But when the engagement banquet wa
After receiving the second IV infusion, Erin finally woke up due to the urge to relieve herself. The moment she woke, she felt disoriented, weak in her limbs, and had a throbbing headache. Her hazy gaze landed on the man beside her, and Erin's brain momentarily thought she was seeing things.Roman, dressed in his set costume, was looking at her at that moment. His voice was gentle and mellow as he asked, "How do you feel?" He'd been afraid of missing the timing for the IV drip and hadn't dared rest his eyes for even a moment.Erin laughed feebly. "Looks like I'm in the hospital ... I'm so sorry for troubling you."He replied, "Yeah, I've even stopped filming. If I don't see an improvement in your condition, I'll feel uneasy about going back to work. So, you have to actively accept treatment and eat well, okay?"Roman's tone was relaxed with a hint of playful reproach. Erin's ears burned a little from embarrassment as he said that, but her eyes became moist, and they reddened afte
Percival quickly put on his clothes and stood up while comforting her, "Alright, I won't say anything. Let's go back. Our scene is in half an hour."Megan suggested, "Let's not leave together. What if we run into someone else? I'll go first, and you come out five minutes later.""Okay."Erin, who had been sitting stiffly behind the folding screen all this time, was actually sweating profusely. Megan and Percival were too busy earlier to notice anything else, but now she just hoped they wouldn't wander around the west wing out of curiosity.Finally, Megan left, and Erin breathed a sigh of relief. But Percival would still be around for another five minutes. Erin remained nervous and listened carefully to Percival's movements.Then her worst fear came true—Percival suddenly started walking around. Erin was afraid that he would come to the other side of the folding screen. What would she do then?Thinking on her feet, she put on her headphones and opened the music player on her phone
Erin's words hit Simon like a bolt from the blue, and he remained frozen with a stiff expression on his face for quite some time.When he snapped back to his senses, he was somewhat annoyed as he asked, "What do you mean? Why are you slandering Megan? Why?"Simon's reaction revealed to Erin that he really liked Megan. This worsened Erin's mood. If Simon didn't like Megan that much, that would be better for him. Then, he wouldn't have to endure so much pain.Seeing Erin suddenly fall silent, Simon angrily walked toward the door. She guessed that he was in a hurry to leave."I didn't slander Megan. She has been deceiving you all along! She has a relationship with a man named Percival behind your back. I heard them with my own ears earlier—"He turned back furiously and shouted at Erin, "Shut up! Who gave you the courage to spout such nonsense? Don't forget that I'm a lawyer! I don't care if you're a friend of my cousin or not, if you dare spread rumors and cause trouble like this, I
Erin's slap brought back some rationality in Simon.Strands of his hair hung limply in front of his eyes, and the side of his face that was slapped had a slight reddish hue. Simon forced a smile and said, "That was a good slap … "After saying that, he took two steps back and slowly turned around. He then walked toward the window. Simon leaned his arm against the window frame, but it was unclear what he was thinking. Erin stood where she was, watching his lonely and desolate figure. The raging emotions within her seemed to have been doused with a bucket of cold water, and she began to calm down.Both of them fell into silence, and after about ten minutes, Erin decided that she couldn't stay any longer and started to leave.At that moment, Simon turned his head and said, "I'm sorry. I was too impulsive just now ... I ... I shouldn't have thrown your phone out of the window."Erin, with her back still turned to him, thought of her phone sinking to the bottom of the lake. She felt a
Erin followed Megan's gaze to the phone in her hand. There was a hint of helplessness in her eyes. If she'd known such a misunderstanding would arise, she would have firmly refused to take Simon's personal phone.Upon hearing Megan refer to Simon as her boyfriend, Erin surmised that Simon wouldn't have broken up with her so soon.Erin remained calm and composed as she said steadily, "I'm sorry, Miss Zeigler. I don't know who your boyfriend is. The phone in my hand is temporarily borrowed from my friend because I lost mine."Megan was taken aback. She then realized that the matter between Simon and her being in a relationship hadn't been made public on the set, so it was understandable that Erin was unaware.With a cold expression, she asked, "Is your friend named Simon Frost?"Pretending to be surprised, Erin replied, "Yes, how did you know?" Roman had told her about the secret relationship between Megan and Simon, but she pretended not to know."Simon is my boyfriend!" Megan g
