A Night with Her Cruel Mate novel Chapter 57

Julia patiently waited while Lisa was still shooting her scenes. To be frank, although Lisa was hard to deal with, she was a very skilled actress.

Julia learned a lot just by watching her act.

"Julia, you'll star opposite the male lead soon. Don't be nervous," Consuela said as she helped Julia retouch her makeup.

"I know." Julia took in a deep breath and stepped on stage. When she was about to perform, Director Guo suddenly said. "Julia, please come down first."

At first she froze in confusion, but eventually walked down obediently. "Director Guo, is something wrong? Did something happen?"

"No, it's me. I just had a brief discussion with the scriptwriter about the plot and we both think that Lisa's scenes have to be adjusted. Since she's in a hurry to leave, let her finish shooting first, okay?" Director Go asked in a gentle tone.

"Okay, I understand." Julia quietly nodded. She wasn't going to fuss over such a small matter.

But to her surprise, the entire schedule changed. Lisa didn't finish filming until it was already late at night. By then, Julia was already sleepy.

Consuela bought a few cups of coffee and handed them out to the staff, while inquiring about the schedule. "When will it be Julia's turn to film?" she asked.

Director Guo was so busy changing the script that he totally forgot about her. He patted his head and rubbed his chin. "Oh, I forgot about that."

With a sheepish smile, he said, "Let Julia rest today, it's already late. We can shoot her scenes tomorrow."

"It's alright. I can do it." Julia walked over. "We can go to bed after we finish filming."

Director Guo glanced at Julia hesitantly and pursed his lips. "I know, but... we must also consider the staff. They should rest as well. To add, the male lead has already gone home. Who will you be filming the scene with?

Come early tomorrow morning. Your scenes will be shot first, okay?" Without bothering to hear her reply, Director Guo directed his attention to the crew. With a clap of his hands, he said, "That's a wrap for today. We'll continue tomorrow."

Julia gave Consuela a resigned look. She knew that Jean was purposely doing this to torture her.

But if she thought that she could be beaten down by such a small change, then her sister was really naive.

"Let's go back and rest." Consuela tugged Julia's sleeve. "Tomorrow will be a tough battle for you to fight."

She was so tired that after her bath, Julia immediately fell into a deep slumber. She slept so soundly that she woke up late the next morning.

"Am I late?" When Julia arrived on set, everyone was already there. The leading actor was livid. When he spotted Julia arriving, he began to shout at the director. "Director Guo, what type of an actress are you hiring? You promised that we would shoot at five o'clock in the morning. What time is it now? She should've just slept until noon!"

"Sorry, I..." Julia stammered, looking at her watch. It was almost seven o'clock in the morning. She thought she was early, but she was actually the last one to arrive.

Director Guo said apologetically, "I'm really sorry..."

After apologizing to the actor, he turned to Julia and raised his voice in frustration. "What's wrong with you? If you don't want to act, then you should go home. Just because you are Miss Gu's sister, doesn't mean that I will be nice to you. I told you to come early today, but you didn't listen. Do you know what time it is? I can't believe that you made us wait for two hours!"
