Didn’t I swear I’ll be independent? Didn’t I swear to let Ashlyn change her mind about me?
That is just a teeny insult, right?
It’s nothing!
This is just a small pebble blocking my way. I can just kick it away and continue to walk on! It’s not even an obstacle, to be honest.
Greg watched the scene without a word before he scanned Naomi sharply.
The young lady looked refreshingly pretty in person. She wasn’t timid like usual assistants were, but she didn’t get mad at Jonathan when he yelled at her rudely.
The clumsy way she poured the drink wasn’t an act either.
He then focused on Naomi’s fair and smooth hands. She must’ve been pampered since birth. He decided.
She isn’t from a poor background. Look at her hands. She obviously has never lifted a finger in her entire life.
Greg was very observant as he was a director.
The young lady’s gaze was pure and guileless. It seemed she hadn’t been corrupted by society yet. Her innocence appealed to him at once.
During the earlier interaction between Jonathan and Naomi, he could see sparks flying between them naturally. They were very similar to the characters in the script.
Finally, he withdrew his gaze and inquired solemnly, “Are you interested to become an actress? You shall play the role of the male lead’s assistant.”
“I...Really?” Naomi’s eyes rounded in shock.
Is this the director?
“Here, let’s try.” Greg flipped the script open and pointed at a simple scene. “This scene will do. The male lead is sick, so you’ll help him to the roadside to hail a cab to the hospital.”
A faint blush crept up Naomi’s face. She might be Jonathan’s assistant for over a month, but she had never been this intimate with him!
I’ll have to put my arms around him?
But of course, it was natural to be fascinated by the movie, and Naomi was no exception.
She was both curious and excited.
