With Nathaniel backing her up, Christina worked smoothly with the film crew.
Being in charge of styling was actually not a tiring job, as there were designated makeup artists in charge of the actors‘ makeup. All she had to do was focus on hair styling and helping the actors put on
their costumes.
The only downside was that Christina had to arrive before the start of the shoot and finish hanging up the clothes after the shoot before leaving.
When it was lunchtime, Christina sat beside Anna to watch the filming after finishing her tasks.
Ethan was the most popular celebrity recently. He had a smooth and gentle–looking face, a pair of eyes that slanted upwards, a straight nose, and a pair of thin lips.
He was incredibly handsome and more recognizable, unlike normal male celebrities.
Even Anna had become his fan after joining the film crew for only a few days. She would constantly sing praises of him to Christina.
Although the job had long working hours, Christina had a lot of free time. Therefore, she could use some of her time to study the contrast of colors.
Meanwhile, Xandra, who was resting not far away, had her gaze fixed on Christina.
She had been avoiding Christina ever since she was humiliated in front of everyone that night.
In fact, Xandra would change out of her outfit herself during their break before letting Christina handle it.
Xandra could not put aside her ego and lower herself to talk to Christina after being humiliated by who she thought was an ordinary girl. After all, the former was well–known in the entertainment industry.
“Are you still angry, Xandra?” asked Xandra’s assistant, who had suffered a lot for the past few days. Retracting Mer
gaze, Xandra snapped, “Why would I hold a grudge against someone so insignificant?” Who does Christina think she is? Nathaniel’s just not tired of her yet. It won’t be long before he gets bored with her. He’ll still end up choosing someone who matches him in terms of social and economic status.
“You’re prettier than her. Not only that, you come from a wealthier family. You’re better than Christina in every aspect. Amph. The more I see her, the more I dislike her. I really want to teach her a lesson,” said the assistant to get in Xandra’s good books.
She was certain she would suffer terribly for the next few days if she did not get revenge for Xandra.
“A lesson? Tell me what you have in mind.” Xandra’s interest was piqued.
At that, the assistant leaned over and whispered something into Xandra’s ears.
Xandra curled her lips into a smirk as she eyed Christina.
“That’s a good idea. Let’s do that.”
“Okay.”
The shoot ended a little late that night. It was almost midnight by the time they finished working.
Just then, Xandra’s assistant went looking for Christina. “Xandra’s getting changed in the lounge on the
second floor. Please wait at the door.”
The second floor was where Xandra’s private lounge was. Christina had been there a few times to collect the clothes.
After giving a brief response, she went upstairs, only to find the door closed.
Usually, Xandra would come out after getting changed.
And every time, the clothes would be left on the ground as if they were trash.
Hence, Christina simply waited patiently outside the door.
Soon, an hour flew by. It was more than enough time for a person to shower, let alone change their clothes.
Unable to resist any longer, Christina knocked on the door. Alas, no one answered.
A sense of foreboding rose within her. She knocked a few more times, yet she was greeted with silence.
That was when she realized something was off, and she instinctively pushed the door open.
The lights were on, and the clothes were simply left in a corner. However, Xandra was nowhere to be
seen.-
I’ve been tricked!
It was close to two o’clock in the morning when Christina rushed out of the room.
To make matters worse, she was in the suburbs, where her phone usually had no reception. No wonder no one called me.
Ouch! It hurts!
