Chapter 316
As Zoe headed to the film set, Penny quickly followed.
Her stunt double already had her wire harness on, while Jay stood beside her and explained his directions.
The stunt double looked almost the same age as Zoe and was quite the docile creature.
Zoe herself had heard more than a few others in the film crew praising her.
With her good looks and willingness to suffer, she would be able to rise to stardom once she got lucky.
As Zoe stood and watched her stunt double being raised into the air, she started to feel fear and her body trembled just from looking.
Feeling a little guilty, she thought about treating her stunt double to a nice dinner and giving her a present.
But even as the thought crossed her mind, there was a loud snapping sound overhead, and the stunt double hovering up in the air was suddenly wobbling before the wire severed completely.
Everyone screamed in shock, while Zoe was left petrified and watched as the stunt double fell dozens of feet down, landing squarely on top of her!
She could not evade at all, colliding full-on with the other woman and toppling down on the ground with a dull thud in a heap!
The rest were all stunned for a long while until a figure dashed away from the cameras and picked Zoe off the floor, shouting on top of his lungs, "Get them to the ambulance right now!"
The rest finally reacted then, and several men dashed up to carry Zoe and the stunt double away.
