Chapter 62
Christina searched all over the place for Patty and finally found it on a small carpet in the changing room.
Meow.
Patty suddenly perked its pair of cat ears, looking very adorable.
Christina reached out and caressed Patty’s little head. “Were you standing up for me? Next time, don’t do that. You can’t afford to mess with Xandra.”
After the commotion, the production assistant asked Christina to hand the costume prepared for Xandra to the second female lead, Coco, to wear.
She heard that the director asked the screenwriter to make changes to the characters and storyline in order to speed up the filming process.
The screen time of the second female lead might be as much as that of the female lead.
Christina proceeded to help Coco change into her outfit. In fact, Coco’s expression was more in line with the protagonist’s character in this show.
“You look great in it,” Christina said.
Coco’s face showed a hint of shyness. “I have to thank you for this. If it weren’t for Xandra being unable to shoot, I wouldn’t have had this opportunity.”
Her status wasn’t that of an A–list celebrity, so naturally, the resources to become the protagonist wouldn’t fall into her hands.
Christina merely smiled and didn’t say a word.
The filming went smoothly that day, and by evening, they had basically caught up with the delayed schedule.
The next day, Xandra returned to the set with a rather unpleasant expression on her face.
Christina had always come out on top whenever the two of them competed with each other. This pushed Xandra’s patience to the limit.
Now she had even caused Xandra’s scenes to be cut. I must get my revenge!
During the shoot, Xandra discreetly observed Christina, who would play with the kitten whenever she had some free time.
How dare you deny instructing that stinky cat to scratch me!
Suddenly, she thought of a very interesting way to get her revenge and immediately called for Iris.
After a secret conversation between the two, Iris walked away with a solemn expression on her face.
On the other hand, Christina was busy with the costumes for both the female lead and the second female lead, working tirelessly all morning and feeling dizzy from the hectic schedule.
During the free time after her dinner, she went to find Patty
She searched all around but couldn’t find Patty, which could usually be found sleeping in its favorite spot. However, there were no signs of the cat.
Christina began to panic. Just when she was thinking about searching for Patty again, Xandra appeared in front of her.
“Are you looking for that stinky cat?”
Xandra narrowed her eyes coldly, her words laced with sarcasm.
“Did you hide Patty?” Christina asked with an angry glare.
Usually, whenever Patty heard her voice, it would come running out. However, no matter how much she called out to the cat that day, it did not show up.
Xandra’s eyes widened. “I’m the kind of person who holds a grudge. If a cat scratched me, should I slaughter it and make stew out of it? Perhaps, should I lock it up and let it starve to death?”
Christina gasped in surprise.
“Xandra, can you please stop being so malicious? Patty only accidentally scratched you the other day. If you’re angry, I apologize to you. Can you please let Patty go?”
“Sure, if you want me to let go of that stinky cat. But you need to admit that you were the one who instructed the cat to scratch me and then apologize to me!”
Xandra was relentless and unwilling to give in.
Christina clenched her teeth, knowing that Patty had indeed attacked Xandra because of her. The thought of an innocent and helpless kitten being harmed because of her made her heart ache with pain.
“All right. I apologize to you. It was my fault that Patty scratched you. I’m sorry. Can you return Patty to me now?”
After listening, Xandra revealed a sly smile and responded, “Although there wasn’t much sincerity, you lost this round.”
Christina didn’t have the mood to argue about winning or losing with her. She insisted once again, “Give Patty back to me.”
Xandra took out her phone and opened a photo. “Your cat is already dead!”
Christina stared at the gruesome images on her phone, and a wave of nausea washed over her. She was on the verge of vomiting.
“Why… Why did you kill Patty?”
