Wes was both happy and helpless about the fact that his niece had fallen in love with someone. He was happy to see that his niece was all grown-up now but he felt helpless because that person was Marty. Although the Tuscan family and the Olsen family could be regarded as rich and influential families in Flaucford, there was still a disparity between them and the four great families. Wes didn't like the idea of Melodie being a social climber. For someone as powerful as Marty, it was out of her reach. However, since Melodie had her eyes on Marty, he couldn't do anything about it either. But young girls like her would most probably act irrational when they fell deep in love. When they grew up in a few years, they would not be so impulsive anymore. Therefore, Wes didn't pay too much attention to what had happened between her and Marty. When he heard the news from Melodie today, he even teased her with a smile. "Hey, you finally stopped being so obs
Melodie was shocked as she looked at the photo of Evelyn with some jealousy. The woman in the photo had bright eyes and white teeth, looking pure but alluring at the same time. Even if it was just a photo with a simple white background, her delicate facial features exuded a strong aura, as if it was a photoshoot for fashion magazines. She nodded with her eyes darkening, and the envy and hatred in her heart became intense. "Yes, she's the one." "Okay." Wes put away his phone and nodded thoughtfully. "Since this woman dares to bully Melodie like this, then don't blame me for making things difficult for her." Wes thought. Three days later, Evelyn returned to work. A week later, after she finished all her work at hand, she began to study the script for a month. Before she got the script, Evelyn had roughly browsed through the original novel while she was at work. The original novel was based on a fictional setting. It was an era when th
If Evelyn remembered correctly, these people were already all those who needed to attend this banquet in the entire filming crew, right? So she was the last one to arrive? Evelyn carefully recalled the time Marissa told her and looked at the time on her wristwatch. Evelyn was sure that according to Marissa's reminder to her, she was not late and even arrived half an hour in advance. Then what the heck was going on? She had a bad feeling about it. Evelyn's heart sank slightly, but the corners of her mouth were wearing the same polite but apologetic smile. She covered her chest and bowed slightly to apologize. "The traffic is quite heavy today, so I'm a little late. Please forgive me." From the moment Evelyn entered the private room, Wes, who was sitting at the head seat, stopped talking and laughing with others and looked at Evelyn with a sullen face. However, judging from Evelyn's appearance, the first impression she gave off was that she
It was a peaceful sleep without a dream. The next day, when Evelyn woke up, she found her face full of tears. Evelyn didn't know why she was like this all of a sudden. She only knew that she was beyond exhausted, so much so that she felt both mentally and physically exhausted. But beggars couldn't be choosers. The only thing she could do was to appear in front of everyone well-groomed and try her best to put on a perfect facade for everyone to see. After putting on the make-up, the haggard woman in the mirror suddenly turned into a bright and charming beauty. Evelyn raised the corner of her mouth in a self-deprecating manner. She didn't know whether she should be exclaimed by the magic of makeup or her previous haggard face. After putting on her clothes, Evelyn went downstairs and got on the ride provided for her by the company, heading towards the filming site. On the way, Marissa looked at the silent Evelyn, and her heart could no
Even Marty couldn't handle her, but he didn't know why she was so enthusiastic to him. He didn't need this kind of luck... The more he thought about it, the more curious he became. After thinking for a while, he decided to send Marty a message and report what had happened to avoid causing any misunderstanding in the future. Soon, all the staff and actors were present. Wes said a few words before the filming began. What Wes was saying was that all he cared about was the ability of the actors, instead of how rich the sponsors behind them were. If he really wanted to act, Wes would welcome him with open arms. However, if he dared to act all stuck-up and was not professional enough, Wes would not hesitate to replace him with someone else. He, Wes, would not allow such a thing to happen even if it would mean that he would lose a fortune. These words caused everyone to look at each other helplessly. They all knew who these words were dire
All Evelyn could feel were the emotions of the actress herself. When the actor and character were in a different mood, for various reasons, as a result, the final product would be different from how it was supposed to be. And this was the situation. However, Evelyn just took it as an excuse that she didn't feel anything, which made her too nervous. That was why her scene partner was not able to immerse herself in the role. She knew because she had a general understanding of the woman in front of her. This was a female actress whom she had worked with when she first debuted. Strictly speaking, she was Evelyn's senior in show business. After her debut for more than a decade, she had taken part in a lot of series. But because of her mediocre appearance, she hadn't been able to hit it big. However, it was said that she was a very kind person. Her personality and acting skills were both worthy of praise. Therefore, she was most probably affected by
However, Wes still gave her some time to adjust herself to it. And it was working. When the shooting began again, the actress was obviously able to put on a better performance. Finally, the filming was over smoothly. Afraid that she might be stressed, Evelyn walked over and said with a smile, "Rita, you've done a great job just now. Don't feel stressed." Rita looked at her with a complicated look, and there was no sign of gratitude on her face. On the contrary, she said nonchalantly, "I'm not stressed." After that, she turned around and walked away coldly. Evelyn felt a little awkward and could not understand what was going on after being given a cold shoulder. However, she did not think too much about it. She only thought that Rita was embarrassed after being humiliated in front of the younger generation. After a short break in the middle, it was soon time for the next filming. This was an action scene between Rita and her.
Wes shouted impatiently and then looked at Evelyn coldly. "Stop pretending to be kind here. Nice idea you've got there, but your action couldn't live up to that." Evelyn raised her eyebrows. This time, she finally understood Wes's attitude towards her. Without having to look back, she could hear the others talking about her. They had reason to believe what they had seen with their own eyes, but it had never occurred to them why the heck Evelyn would do that to Rita. The most important thing was that even Wes had already come to the conclusion that she was a scheming person. He had spoken up for Rita on the surface, but in fact, he was just taking advantage of the situation to seek revenge on her. Evelyn sneered, looked down at the sword on the ground, and calmly picked it up and held it in her hand. "It was indeed my mistake just now. But we haven't finished shooting this scene yet. Let's continue now." Stunned, Wes starred in surprise at
