Let me go, Mr. Hill By Shallow South Chapter 2009
Staring at Eliza’s slim figure, Chester was not really angry. Instead, he felt an itchy sensation.
If he had not experienced the kiss, he would not have felt so strongly about it.
At this point, he was just like a junkie. Not only did he want to get Eliza, but he also wanted to conquer her.
At night, Eliza took time out to have a meal with Director Lear.
Director Lear was merely an insignificant director. In fact, he was not qualified to eat with Eliza considering her status. However, it was Director Lear who shot Eliza’s first movie when she had just joined the entertainment industry. Therefore, she took their past relationship into consideration.
Director Lear took the initiative to pour her a cup of coffee. “Four years have flown by. At that time, you were still studying. Who would’ve expected that a young girl like you would become a well-known celebrity in the blink of an eye?”
“Don’t say that. If it hadn’t been for your guidance, I wouldn’t have come this far with my acting skills.”
Eliza’s response was perfunctory. At this point, her soul was Charity, so she did not have any memories of what Eliza had done in the past. However, it was through the assistant that she learned that Director Lear used to lend Eliza a hand.
“Eliza, I actually came here to ask you a favor.” Director Lear handed her his script. “This is the new movie I spent three years preparing for. But with my status, I know there won’t be any good actors who will be willing to work with me. I’m not begging you to be the female lead of this movie either. Having said that, you can take a look at it. If you’re happy with it, you can consider taking on the role.”
“I’ll take a good look at it.” Eliza took over the script.
She was under no illusions that Director Lear was one of the very few honest directors in the industry, so she did not turn him down.
Even so… She had no idea if she was eligible to act in movies in the future.
