Chapter 66
The next day, Christina packed her things and returned to the set.
Gina and Anna hugged her. “You’re finally back! Do you know how busy we’ve been these past few days?”
“Sorry for causing you trouble.”
Christina felt a bit embarrassed.
Gina laughed. “We’re in the same group. There’s no need for such apologies.”
Xandra had been blacklisted, and for an entire week, negative news about her had dominated the headlines. All her contracts had been terminated, and even her endorsements had been canceled.
Everyone on the internet had been cheering.
As she hadn’t shot many scenes, the screenwriter completely changed her role. In order not to be affected, all the shots related to Xandra had been deleted.
As a result, Coco, who was initially the second female lead, became the female lead.
Christina and Coco got along very well. Coco was a hardworking young actress, who was both youthful and cheerful.
For two months, almost all the staff had to work overtime and stay up late to complete the filming.
Inside the dressing room, Christina was helping Coco organize her clothes.
“We’re wrapping up today, and we’ll have to part ways. I really don’t want to say goodbye,” Coco said.
She felt that Christina had a great sense of style and uniqueness in fashion.
She deeply admired her talent.
“We have each other’s number. We can meet up for a meal after this,” Christina said with a smile while helping Coco fix her hair.
Coco hesitated, feeling that it would be a pity not to seize the opportunity with such a talented person right in front of her.
“Christina, have you ever thought about becoming a celebrity stylist? I think you have a great eye for fashion. Why don’t you quit your job and become my personal stylist?”
In fact, behind every big–name celebrity is their own exclusive makeup artist.
A good stylist can create an image that helps a celebrity quickly rise to a new level, even increasing their popularity.
Many female celebrities have gained fame through a single breakthrough move.
“I’m doing quite well at Radiant Corporation, and I’m not planning to go solo yet. If there’s a chance, I’ll contact you,” Christina said with a smile.
She felt that working in a large company was quite good, as it provided more resources and a bigger platform for development.
“All right, then. I have a party on Saturday. Can you help me with my styling? I promise I’ll pay you well.”
Coco leaned on Christina’s slender shoulder, acting cute, which made Christina shudder inwardly.
“All right. I’ll ask Ms. Tanner and get back to you.”
After Christina finished organizing her clothes, the two of them arrived at the film set.
Christina told Gina about Coco’s invitation.
“Radiant Corporation is quite accommodating. As long as it doesn’t affect the company’s image, you can take private orders. However, you’ll need to give thirty percent of your commission to the company. Are you okay
with that?”
“Sure.”
Christina cared more about opportunities.
After staying on the set for two months, Christina immediately went to see her mother upon returning downtown.
The surgery was very successful. Sharon’s body had recovered significantly after nearly two months of recuperation in the VIP ward.
As soon as the nurse saw Christina, she couldn’t stop her mouth from running.
“Your boyfriend is handsome and nice! He visits Mrs. Steele often and accompanies her on walks around the courtyard to enjoy the breeze. What an incredible man. I’m truly envious!”
Christina would hear the same words every time she came, and each time she would just respond with, a smile.
“Mom, your health has improved a lot. I’ll help you with the discharge process in a few days. Shall we go back and stay at Granny’s house together?”
Sharon shook her head, not agreeing. “Your granny was upset about me marrying your dad. Not only did we lose your granddad’s company, but it also caused him to pass away with regrets. I really can’t bring myself to go back and see her.”
Every time the past was brought up, her mother would become melancholic. And each time Christina saw her mother in distress because of the Steele family, a desire for revenge would sprout in her heart.
She just knew that now was not the right time.
