Her Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 450

Chapter 450 You Must Be a Snail

Stephen Armstrong was a popular international superstar who was loved by the public because of his handsome appearance, good acting skills, and down-to-earth personality.

Veronica had only seen Stephen on TV, but she never thought there would come a day she would be able to act in a movie with him.

“Yup. How does that sound? Do you want to come over? Tsk! My gut is telling me that you must be so overjoyed you have forgotten who you are!” Larry couldn’t hold back and spoke with an accent.

In fact, Veronica was exhilarated. Her heart was beating faster than usual from the jitters. However, her eyes darted toward Sean, who sat beside her, and she said to Larry, “I have to ask for my boss’ opinion on this. I will call you back later.” “Sure, no problem.”

“I will call you later.” After she hung up, she clasped her phone with both hands and looked at Sean. “What is it?” Sean asked after hearing the conversation from the side.

“Uh…” Veronica frowned and thought about it, seemingly looking for a better way to express her question.

She took a moment to herself before explaining, “Here is the thing—wasn’t I at Rocky Bay to visit a friend of mine who was filming a sci-fi blockbuster two days ago? I met Stephen Armstrong there, so my friend ended up telling him that I am good at fighting, which got Stephen wanting to spar with me… And today, he told the director that he wants to have a fight scene with me.”

This wasn’t a situation that could be summarized into 2 to 3 sentences, but she knew that Sean would definitely be muddled if she didn’t explain it to him.

“What did you say? Stephen Armstrong?” He suddenly remembered the photo he saw of her circle of friends the other day. “Oh, is the friend you are talking about… Larry Freeman?”

“Heh, that is the guy.” Her answer surprised him. “When did you get to know a top actor like Larry Freeman? And you and him seem pretty close, too.”

“Friends. We are just friends.” Veronica didn’t dare tell Sean their actual relationship, lest Sean asked her to have Larry do something as her friend.

Hearing that, Sean twirled the pen he was holding between his fingertips and let out a deep frown as he thoughtfully said, “You have to think this through. You promised the partner today that you would take a set of photos today. Even though they are a mid-range clothing brand, it still is a good start.”

In any case, the breach of contract was subject to compensation as long as the contract was signed. Moreover, it would be bad for her reputation. Veronica understood what Sean was trying to say.

After all, she was still a no-name model. She might have participated in a catwalk in Bloomstead, but it wasn’t a big-enough stage for her to brag about it. “Then… I will go take the pictures today.”

“Decide for yourself. If you want to go to the filming location, I can terminate your contract with the partner or recommend another model,” Sean offered before reminding her, “Also, even though I don’t know how good you are at fighting, you have never been an actress, after all. With your zero experience… it might not work out even if you were to choose the movie…”

He must have encountered countless offers like this to find it unsubstantial.

Stephen Armstrong was an international superstar. Countless popular domestic actors had been eliminated from auditions, not to mention Veronica, who was a novice without any experience in acting. “Alright. Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Ludwig.”

Veronica didn’t say anything much after that, but she soon left the office after having a small chat with Sean.

After she was outside the office, she gave Larry a call. “Hey, Crazy. Thank you for your kind intentions, but I have other things to do today. Please pass Stephen the message and thank him for me.”

Truth was, she still had the tiniest bit of hope, but she also understood that such a big crew would never wait for her.

Her rejection would automatically mean one lost opportunity.

Despite how reluctant she was, she had to fulfill the contract.

“What is holding you up? Seriously, Demoness, did a donkey kick you in the head and break your brain? This is an internationally renowned director who must have gotten tired of winning awards we are talking about. You will have a bright future ahead if you are part of the crew and the director takes a fancy to you.”

Even Larry thought that Veronica was an idiot for rejecting such a good opportunity.

“Thanks for the thought. I really do appreciate it, but I signed a contract with a clothing brand and we agreed to shoot today.”

Although it was just an ordinary collaboration, it was still a new starting point for her.
