Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted Chapter 1369 [Eleven Jewell]

Leighton’s face darkened as he stared at Nicole. “I didn’t quit because I can’t handle the role. I quit because I don’t want to act with you as my partner.”

“You said the same thing last time, yet you couldn’t even nail a simple kissing scene. You kept bumping into my teeth. It’s been two years since then. Have you finally figured out how to handle kissing scenes?” Nicole asked with a smile.

Stella was shocked to hear that she said that in front of everyone. Leighton seemed to take Nicole’s words to heart, and his expression grew even more unpleasant.

Leighton was a top-tier idol, and Nicole was the youngest three-time award-winning actress. Both of them had high national recognition. No one dared to intervene in their conversation. Rather, they were glad to not be involved in the drama.

Estelle was terrified when she noticed that Leighton was on the verge of exploding. Stella gently tugged at his arm and whispered, “Don’t be rash. You’ve portrayed this role brilliantly. Are you sure you want to give it up?”

Leighton’s throat tightened. Although Ralph’s screen time was not extensive, he was a special guest in the film.

Leighton had invested a lot of time and effort into bringing the character to life. He genuinely enjoyed playing the role. To give it up now honestly did not sit well with him.

Seeing his expression soften, Stella added, “Your fans are watching. They’ve been waiting for you since the beginning of this shoot. Do you know how disappointed they’d be if you quit?”

Leighton had a soft spot for his supporters. He did not depend on his family’s background to debut in the entertainment industry. Instead, he worked hard and relied on his fans’ unwavering support to climb to stardom. He might not say it often, but he dreaded the thought of disappointing the people who had supported him all along.

After some thought, Leighton gradually regained his composure. He shot a glance at Nicole and retrieved the script from the director. “I’m going to touch up my makeup,” he declared firmly.

Nicole appeared somewhat disappointed when she realized Leighton did not take the bait. She turned to Stella and smiled, “Hello, Miss Jewell.”
