Since she had nothing else to do in the mansion, she answered gratefully, "Thank you, Joy! When shall I go?"
"You'd better reach the Sun Mountain before 11:00 AM. Patty Gill is the most well-known agent in the entertainment industry. She attached great importance to punctuality. So don't be late! That's it. Bye, see you later!"
"Okay, see you later!"
After hanging up the phone, she hurried to hail a taxi to go to the Sun Mountain.
When she reached there, it was 10:30 AM. As soon as she got off taxi, she saw Joy waiting beside the road.
They hugged to greet each other and then Joy took her to the shooting site. While walking, she said to Verena, "When you see Patty, just be sweet while talking to her. And be agile while working!"
Verena nodded and kept listening attentively.
"There are two crews shooting films here. So the time is limited. But the chief actress is good at nothing! She doesn't even know to walk according to the set piece! They didn't even finish the shooting during the whole morning! So Patty is pissed now! No matter how harsh her words would be, you should control yourself! Do you read me?"
Joy kept repeating, "You should know that Patty has been a harsh talker. So you can tell when you stay with her for a period of time."
Though Verena had expected that, she still felt nervous, "Will she be mean?"
Before Joy could answer, a sharp voice sounded, "Shit! I told you to get me a glass of water! What the hell did you do? Are you being a cripple? I need you here to serve me well! If you can't, just fuck off!"
Then they saw a young fashion-looking girl dressing in jeans and black overcoat while wearing a pair of high heels shouting and poking another girl's forehead hard to scold her. That girl had started to cry out.
When seeing that, Verena couldn't help swallowing. She grabbed Joy's sleeve and asked with low voice, "Joy, that should be Patty, right?"
Joy smiled and shrugged, "Bingo!"
While speaking, Patty's voice was getting even sharper, "What the hell are you crying for? Do you feel being wronged? Here is not a kindergarten but a shooting crew! If you want to cry, get back to your cradle! Where is my assistant? Where is the new assistant?"
Before Verena could react, she was led to the front of Patty by Joy, "Patty, here she is!"
Then Patty fixed her eyes on Verena and looked at her from head to toe, "Can you do that?"
"Just rest assure! I will do my best to work hard!" Verena hurried to bow to Patty.
"Okay, from now on, just work with Clare Watervine. Oh, by the way, where is Cole?" Patty asked the staff beside her.
"Cold got mad so he had left! He told us to cancel the press conference this afternoon!"
"Shit! Why don't you make him stay? Where is Clare?"
"She needs to shoot a cover for Ella Magazine. So she is preparing for it now."
"Take her to Clare. From now on, she is the assistant of Clare!"
When seeing the staff leave, Verena finally breathed a sigh of relief. What a fractious lady!
Clare was sitting on the sofa in the lounge. She was holding a glass of wine with her right hand, while on the finger of which there was a big diamond ring. She was wearing a red tight-fitting dress coupled with a white fur coat covering her shoulder. She looked arrogant, "You are my assistant?"
"Yes!" Verena hurried to answer.
