Chapter 122
“She’ll return to the Joneson Family in the future, so you’d better watch your behavior. Don’t hold a grudge against her.”
At that moment, Frank’s mind was a mess. “I got it.”
She’s my cousin. This is interesting.
On the other hand, Elspeth was raging at the thought of her snobbish brother.
Blake noticed her dissatisfaction and secretly rejoiced at that, but he pretended to be furious. “That’s alright. That guy has such a bad temper. We won’t have to see him again from now on.”
“It doesn’t matter. This isn’t important. By the way, is this your first day back at work after the break? Did the director speak to you on the phone?”
He frowned in response. “He called to speak to me right from the start. He urged me to go back on set early this morning. He’s such a nuisance.”
“Alright. Let’s make a move right now and join the filming set ASAP.” Elspeth noticed that he was unwilling to go, so she urged him to head over.
“Okay.”
Both of them joined the filming set, and this was the first time that she had stepped foot on a filming set. Although she interacted with some movie stars and their managers previously, she had never visited a filming
set.
They arrived to find that there was an ongoing scene. As soon as the director saw Blake, his expression immediately brightened up. “You’re here at last, boy! I wouldn’t be able to film this scene without you. I was so worried you would quit the set!”
“You’re just exaggerating, Mr. Thorn.” Blake went along politely.
Suddenly, the director’s gaze landed on Elspeth, who was by Blake’s side, and he revealed a strange expression. “Who’s this lady here? She looks familiar.”
“She’s my newly appointed manager. Her name’s Elspeth.”
As a director, he usually paid attention to the trending topics on the Internet, so he naturally knew her various identities. He sincerely admired this young lady’s capabilities. As he looked at her stunning features, he could not help feeling a flutter in his heart.
“Miss Lynwood.” With a smile, he stretched out a hand to her. Although Elspeth was slightly unwilling to shake
LI- Lad
The director furtively tickled her palm while everyone was unaware. At that point, she could not contain the disgust that welled within her and swiftly retracted her hand.
“Miss Lynwood, I hope we’ll be able to work well from now on.” The director felt his heart skip a beat upon noticing her furrowed brows and icy-cold expression. It would be very exciting to conquer a woman like her.
Elspeth could not stand the lust on the director’s face, so she came up with a random excuse and took a seat by
the side.
As for Blake, he went ahead to film the scene.
While she sat on a rock by the lake and spaced out, a figure suddenly approached her. She had not even taken a good look at the person when she was shoved into the lake out of nowhere.
Plop! The huge splash naturally attracted the attention of the people around. The extras on set yelled out that someone had fallen into the water, so the filming team instantly halted the shoot.
Blake ran over frantically and noticed Elspeth was resting in this area earlier on but could not see her in sight.
Therefore, he immediately deduced that she was the one who had fallen into the water.
Meanwhile, Elspeth was in a tough situation inside the lake. Truth be told, she was not afraid to fall into the lake as she was a good swimmer and able to swim back to the shore. Yet, coincidentally, her leg cramped upon plunging into the water, so it took her a huge effort to get out of the lake. Suppressing the pain, she could not help but choke repeatedly on the lake water.
