Chapter 1014 Practicing Lines
Their progress was ahead of schedule, so there was no rush for them to complete the scenes. Bryan shook his head. "I'm fine with anything, but I don't see Minnie around." He didn't have any scenes with the female lead that afternoon, and he didn't see her around that day.
"Were you looking for me, Mr. Bryan?" Minnie showed up just moments after Bryan asked about her. "I didn't have any scenes earlier, so I went back to get some rest. How were your parts?" she asked.
"Ah…!" Minnie had just finished her sentence when she seemed to trip on something on the ground. She fell directly into Bryan's arms. Bryan was rather taken aback, but his instincts told him to reach out and hold onto her. Anyone who didn't see the entire incident would've assumed that they were just hugging one another.
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." Minnie was quick to apologize.
"It's fine." Bryan only held onto her for a while before he let go of her. He even took one step back just to keep some distance from the woman. Minnie glanced at her leg before letting out a light laugh. "There was a pebble. I didn't notice it. I'm sorry about that." Then, she bowed down to the man. "Thank you for catching me."
"Don't worry about it. I'm sure you didn't mean to trip and fall. Is your leg okay?" Bryan showed some care for the woman since she was being so polite.
"I'm fine. Don't worry about me, Mr. Bryan." Minnie fixed her hair while subtly batting her eyelids at Bryan. However, Bryan didn't know what the look in her eyes meant, so he continued to question her. "Do you have an itch in your eye or something?"
My eye? Minnie was confused for a moment. Her vision had always been sharp and accurate—she never had any troubles or discomfort with her eyesight. Is he trying to be sarcastic? Minnie took a long, earnest look at the man's straight face, only to conclude that he was probably too innocent and simple-minded to understand why she had been batting her eyelids.
"No. I'm fine now." She had no choice but to play along. I don't think I can seduce this guy at all, she thought. The director came up to them then. "Are you guys ready? Shall we start filming?" The director was a gentle and caring man who often asked for everyone's opinions.
Minnie shot a thoughtful glance in Bryan's direction. "Are you ready, Mr. Bryan?"
"Yeah." Bryan was a clear-headed and focused man who found it easy to get into character whenever he needed to. "I'm ready too, then." Minnie beamed and agreed to start. She hadn't caused any trouble from the start of their filming, and Bryan had a rather decent impression of her. Both of them were quick to get into their characters.
It only took them a short while to complete their scenes, and the production team returned to the hotel after that. Minnie got herself dressed and groomed before she visited Bryan's room. She brought her assistant along with her so Bryan didn't seem too guarded when he opened the door for them. "Which part of the script would you like to practice?"
Minnie had already told him that she wanted to practice some lines while they were filming earlier. "This one. The director told us to familiarize ourselves with this so that we can complete the whole thing in one take tomorrow," Minnie replied.
"Sure. Let's start." Bryan was a professional, and he got into character almost immediately. Minnie was mindful of the time throughout their practice, and by the time it was past 1.00AM, Minnie got to her feet. "It's getting late. I should head back now," she uttered.
Bryan was rather tired as well. "Sure."
"See you tomorrow," she said. As Minnie and her assistant left the room, she allowed her assistant to walk ahead of her. She then messed her hair a little before she sneaked out of Bryan's room, looking left and right as if she was trying to hide from someone. The first two buttons of her shirt had been unbuttoned, creating an image that could be easily misunderstood.
Once she returned to her room, she reached her hand out in front of her assistant. "Did you get the video?"
