After a complete falling out with Julian, Emelia stayed at home and worked hard on her script.
She wanted to hurry up and finish the script so that the crew could rush into filming and she could hurry up and end these encounters with Julian.
Although she knew it was unrealistic because even if she handed in the script, the crew would still come to her if there were any problems during the shoot, but if she could finish a day sooner, she would be able to clear the line with Julian sooner, wouldn't she?
Emelia basically wrote one episode a day at a pace that made her dizzy.
That day she received a call from Harvey, "Emelia, we are preparing for the show recently, we have encountered some problems and would like to discuss them with you, why don't we have a lunch together?"
"Okay, name a location." Emelia agreed.
It was common in a show for the director to have discussions with the writers about the plot.
It was just as well that she was tired of writing and wanted to go out to relax.
Harvey then gave her an address, a restaurant in Riverside City Film and Television Base, and Emelia dressed up and took a taxi there.
When she reached the private room, Emelia knocked on the door and entered, frowning slightly at the sight of the middle-aged man sitting next to Harvey.
The man was an assistant director under Harvey. Emelia had heard Nina spouting off to her about this assistant director, who was lewd and lustful, and had taken advantage of many actresses.
Of course, those actresses who were justly popular were not something he dared to mess with.
Those young girls who were new to the industry, or those who were weak, had no choice but to put up with his harassment.
Emelia looked at the man and a bad feeling welled up in her heart.
The last time she had dinner with Harvey, his hand almost touched her waist, and she reflected on it for a long time afterwards.
This time she wrapped herself up very tightly, a long-sleeved loose shirt with denim trousers, not showing off her figure or any bit of skin, for fear of attracting any more ill-will from the men because of what she was wearing.
After she had greeted them and walked over to sit down, the assistant director's hand was smoothly placed on her shoulder.
The man's unrestrained gaze fell on her pretty face, "How old are you, Emelia? Your skin looks so tender and hydrated."
As he spoke, he tried to reach out to touch Emelia's face, and Emelia couldn't resist getting up to avoid it.
She tried to squeeze out a smile, "Excuse me, I'm going to the bathroom."
The first thing Emelia did after she left the house was to call Nina and tell her about her encounter with the lewd assistant director.
Nina was instantly alert, "Find an excuse to leave, that old man is disgusting."
Emelia had a headache, "But we'll have to get along for the whole project, and it's not good to offend them directly."
Nina was already a popular actress and can simply ignore these shameless men, but Emelia was different.
At best, she was just a scriptwriter with a little talent, and until she made a name for herself, she would not dare offend anyone.
Nina said, "I can't leave now, or I could've gone there accompany you."
Nina was already the designated actor for the role of princess consort, and it was normal to have dinner with the director and scriptwriter.
Emelia thought for a moment and said, "I'll give Mr. Johansen a call."
"Viggo will take at least half an hour to be there." Nina vetoed her proposal.
Nina then said cheerfully, "How about this? You can stall in the washroom for a while. Harry happens to be auditioning over here today, I'll ask him to help you out, he'll be there in ten minutes at the latest."
