People were rushing toward Patrick, except Joanne, who was running in the opposite direction from everyone else. In the midst of it, she accidentally bumped into another female celebrity…"Hey! You just stepped on Miss Diana's foot! Watch where you're going!" scolded Teresa Diana's assistant, as she grabbed Joanne's hand angrily.Joanne quickly stepped back hastily and clasped her hands together. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it," she apologized to Teresa."You better be sorry!" the assistant replied sarcastically.Teresa was a well-known celebrity in the entertainment circle. She was the female star that Joanne had a dispute with at the entrance of the TV station previously.Joanne was a third-rate celebrity at best, and it's no wonder that Teresa's assistant dared to raise her voice at her.Joanne was about to apologize again, but Teresa caught a glimpse of Patrick walking over. She patted her on the shoulder with a smile and asked, "Are you the one playing the third female lead?"
"I really don't want to scold you. I know you are a good actress. Never mind. Get some rest. You've been pretty absent-minded the past two days," said the assistant director."Yes. I will get a hold of myself!" said Joanne reassuringly.She held her script and studied it silently in a corner. As a popular actress in Monique Entertainment, she was not very well known in Worldwide Entertainment Co.Before this, Edwin had provided her with a caravan, assistants, and many other benefits. Now that she got kicked out from the Athertons, she did not have the guts to ask for all these perks. After all, they all came with a high cost.Therefore, at this moment, Joanne could only do everything on her own.Initially, she wanted to observe her part of the role, which was why she was not putting much effort into her act. Now that she got a good scolding from the assistant director, she realized she had to buck up. She was an actress, and acting was her job.No matter what happens, she will
Joanne gulped. Feeling pressured, she gave a thumbs up weakly and said, "Don't worry, I'll do my best in my act, and I won't hold you back.""Well, let's start then," said Patrick as he nodded lightly and asked his assistant to bring his script.Patrick's script was so clean! There were no notes or scribbling on it, like a brand-new sheet of paper.Joanne looked at his script and looked down at her own, instantly feeling ashamed.What a brilliant actor! Patrick could just act by just reading the script alone!It turned out Joanne still had a long way to go to stardom…In the scene with Patrick, Joanne was given the role of the daughter of a medicinal sorcerer. She was rescued by the male lead, played by Patrick. From there, she fell in love at first sight. However, it turned out that the male lead already had a sweetheart.Therefore, Joanne's character eventually goes into a downward spiral and ends up doing many unconscionable acts.Fortunately, she finally came to her senses
Joanne waved at Patrick and left.She was feeling a little doubtful. She did not tell any friends about this film shoot. Who would come to her?She saw the middle-aged lawyer in a suit and leather shoes and instantly understood what was happening."Hi, Miss Winters. I'm the lawyer from the Atherton Family. Here is the divorce agreement between you and Edwin. You can sign it here." The lawyer handed her a black signing pen as he spread out the document and pointed to the blank space at the end of the page. Joanne gritted her teeth as she took the pen. They found her so quickly, coming all the way here in Kansas City…It seemed that the Athertons really hated her, desperately wanting to remove her from the family.Joanne asked, "Who sent you to give me this document? Was it Grandma? Or Edwin?""Is there any difference?" the lawyer asked impatiently.It took him a lot of time and effort to find out that Joanne had come to Kansas City. He just wanted her to sign the document s
With that, Edwin tore the divorce papers into pieces and threw them into the air!Countless shreds of paper sprinkled in the air and danced around them like a heavy snowstorm.Eric wiped the cold sweat off his forehead in horror. Since Harry's wife's death a long time ago, Old Madam Atherton had been disgusted with his constant flirting with many women and did not allow Harry to remarry.In other words, the position of the wife in his household registration book had become vacant.How was Harry supposed to leave a wife that he did not even have at the moment? He does not even have a wife. How can he leave?"Mister Atherton…" stammered Eric."What are you still standing here for? Waiting for me to take you back to Sapphire City?" asked Edwin coldly as he glanced at the lawyer.Eric glared at Joanne resentfully and then at Edwin. He had no choice but to leave."Well, now the lawyer is gone, and the divorce agreement is gone. I'm going to head back to filming first! I'm quite busy
Joanne looked at Edwin anxiously. "Then what about Noah?" she asked."What are you talking about?" replied Edwin. Why did she suddenly mention her?Joanne pursed her lips. "Don't take me for a fool, I know you two are having an affair."Edwin was silent."She was your first love, wasn't it? You called her by name that night. Since you liked her so much, don't hurt her. Don't let her be an unsightly mistress," said Joanne as she forcefully squeezed out a smile. At this moment, Joanne's heart was racing, and she struggled to breathe.Perhaps she was sick.She had not been sleeping well and not performing at her best in the filming.In an instant, Edwin's face turned cold. His eyes were even more murderous looking now. "Since when did I have an affair with Noah? Did you see it with your own eyes?""Indeed," said Joanne, blinking her eyes with a troubled expression.Edwin laughed back angrily. "Looks like you need to go get your eyes checked. You must be blind!"He could not be
The corners of Joanne's mouth curled up involuntarily as she straightened her back and strode back to the film set.Patrick did not know who Joanne was going to meet, but he could clearly feel that she became very happy after meeting this person.She even took the initiative to say hello to the stage manager. She was smiling all around with her crescent-like eyes as if there were no more worries in the world.Patrick was fascinated as he watched Joanne. He had been in the entertainment circle for so many years, and he had not seen such a simple-minded female artist for a long time.He did a random search on the Internet just now, and it turns out that Joanne had quite a bad reputation among the netizens. It was something Patrick did not expect.In the evening, Patrick had made it clear to the director that he and Joanne were ready for their scene and that they should start shooting immediately, so they did not have to prepare it twice.The director glanced at Joanne worriedly and
Perhaps Patrick was just sympathizing with Joanne as a newcomer. Why else would he set his eyes on a woman like her?Teresa thought so disgustingly. However, her eyes were about to burst into flames as she witnessed Patrick pampering and tidying Joanne's messed-up hair several times during the filming!Not just Teresa, but other female stars on the set, including the director, were all stunned.What happened to Patrick? No, it must be Joanne who seduced him, and now he was too embarrassed to refuse her!Filming a period drama was very troublesome due to the complicated styling and clothes. Joanne tried to drink as little water as possible during the shoot. After the filming was done, she rushed to the bathroom at lightning speed.Bypassing the long aisle, Joanne found the bathroom, and Teresa just happened to come out of it. The two met unexpectedly. Joanne panicked a little as she put on a casual smile and rushed to the side. Teresa's face sank in dissatisfaction.It was onl
