Chapter 227
Walter nodded dazedly at her in agreement. After their first round of practice, both Walter and Gordon were completely blown away by Janet’s talent. At the same time, they were absolutely sure that as soon as her song ‘Heaven on Earth’ was released, it would certainly become a sensational hit on the internet.It seemed like she was born to be a performer. As soon as she sat down in front of a piano, she seemed to be shining and glittering with her marvelous charm. All the staff members present were sighing and shaking their heads in amazement. They couldn’t help but be drawn to the unique demeanor that belonged exclusively to her. Every single movement of her fingers looked beguiling and captivating.The director was thrilled to watch Janet’s performance. Although it had been a long time since she last composed anything, not only did she not seem out of practice, her skills had improved and became even better than before.“Great! What a fantastic performance!” Looking excited, the director walked over and handed them a bottle of water each before waving Jessie over. “Come here, Jessie; we’re going to start shooting the music video soon.”Seeing both Gordon and Walter so completely taken with Janet’s wonderful performance that they didn’t even spare her a glance, Jessie sulked throughout the entire take. Looking at the screen, the director constantly shook his head in disapproval and kept on reminding her, “Jessie, please stare into the camera and look happier.”Removing the microphone that was pinned to her waist, Jessie, whose face was in urgent need of a touch-up, grumbled, “How am I supposed to be happy with someone being here?” With that, she threw the equipment on the floor and strode off.Scratching his head awkwardly, the director immediately summoned some of the crew members to go after her. Indeed, it was not easy to handle the wealthy young lady’s temper. Yet, the director had no choice but to keep her because it was a special request from the president of the Nottom Entertainment to cast Jessie.Then, he turned to face Walter, Gordon and Janet apologetically and said, “I’m very sorry that we have to call it a day. We’ll shoot the remaining parts some other time. I’ll notify you guys when the schedule is fixed.” Upon hearing this, the three of them nodded in response. After the crew members dispersed, Walter poured Janet a cup of coffee but was rejected tactfully by her with a faint smile. “I’m positively filled with nothing but coffee.”Walter was so fascinated by the exquisite beauty of her brows and her eyes that he could no longer think straight. Swallowing, he asked her in a deep and gentle voice, “Since it’s been such a long time since we last met, shall we have dinner together?”Staring at the floor contemplatively, Janet replied, “Sounds good. Let me head to the washroom first.”As soon as she left, the screen of her phone, which she placed on the piano, lit up. Walter checked the screen and saw Mason’s name on it. His heart lurched at the sight and he thought to himself, Does she have a boyfriend?Due to many considerations, Walter decided to walk out of the practice room instead of picking up the call. Meanwhile, Mason’s brows creased together in concern because Janet had not been picking up his calls. He instructed in a bleak tone, “Sean, check her whereabouts. I miss her.” Sean was exasperated at seeing how needy and clingy Mason was.When Walter made it out of the practice room, he spotted Gordon who seemed to be leaving in a hurry. Frowning, he asked, “Are you very busy lately?”Flashing him a toothy grin, Gordon’s tired face lit up with barely concealable joy. “Yes, I’ve been busy revising to prepare for the college entrance examination.”Walter chuckled in response. “Good luck then!”“See you next time!” Gordon waved goodbye.It was only when Janet walked out of the washroom did she notice her phone showing she had received several missed calls from Mason. Raising her brows slightly, she was just about to call him back when she heard a commotion outside. She strained her ears trying to hear something. Is Jessie making a fuss again?As soon as she walked out of the practice room, she saw Jessie reprimanding the crew members who had stood by Janet’s side just now. Janet then approached Walter and asked him lightly, “What’s going on?”The moment Jessie heard her voice, she spun around and confronted her, “I’m just teaching them a lesson. It has absolutely nothing to do with you.”Janet raised her brow and asked with a note of amusement, “Are you giving them trouble just because they defended me just now?” Jessie snorted icily in response, “What has that got to do with you?”
