My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 182

Chapter 182 Cold Shoulder

The plot was not so difficult to follow. It's just hard for Natalia to hit Mac for real in the beginning.

Vicente had high expectation for acting so cheating was absolutely not on the table. But if she slapped him too hard, she would leave a mark on his face which would affect the shooting afterwards.

Thus, Vicente told them to step aside and let the assistant director show them how to slap seemingly hard but actually not.

Jessica watched for a while and walked over to Vicente. She smiled and said, "Mr. Langes, is everything going well?"

Vicente was sitting on a stool. Hearing that, he looked up briefly. He gave a light yea indifferently and Jessica couldn't tell whether he was pleased or not.

He didn't pay much attention to the scandal, but after all, things got so serious that he also heard about it a little.

Therefore, Jessica didn't make a good impression on him. But he always focused on the matters, not the people concerned, so he did not intend to give her a hard time.

The reason why he agreed to let her play the supporting role was because he truly thought she was suitable for that role.

Her eyes were vicious enough. Normal people couldn't tell that the viciousness had come from the bottom of her heart, but he could.

Jessica didn't know what he was thinking. She thought that her fame and influence were the only reasons why she was chosen.

At worst, it was the director's approval for her acting.

So even if Vicente gave her the cold shoulder, she still told Rosa to grab a chair for her to sit next to him.

"Actually, it's such a shame that my sister and I haven't seen each other much these years, even though we're sisters. I didn't even know she wanted to be an actress," she said resignedly with a sign, ""But I always believe that whatever path you choose to take, you should earn your opportunities by fair means. I really didn't expect my sister to be so impatient. I've already made a promise to help her, and she's still hyping up herself like that."

Vicente frowned, feeling that the more he listened, the less he actually understood.

But he didn't bother to give a second thought. On the set, all he cared about was directing and he couldn't be bothered to pay attention to anything else.

So, even as she looked at him expectantly, he stood up and called out to the assistant director who was speaking to Natalia and Mac: "Are you guys ready? Let's do it all over again!"

The assistant director replied, "They're ready."

"Then here we go! Get set."

Natalia and Mac hurriedly returned to their spots. With the shout of "action", Natalia smacked Mac hard in the face.

Mac was slapped so hard that his head tilted. He gazed at her in disbelief.

"You have the guts to hit me? Do you know who I am?"

Natalia snapped, her hands on her waist, "I don't give a crap about who you are! Even if you were God, you can't play rascal... Ahhh!"

Mac didn't wait for her to finish and grabbed her hands behind her back. Natalia naturally refused to go down without a fight so she stamped hard on Mac's foot and turned around when he let go of her hand due to the pain. However, during all this time, neither of them realized that they were standing on a slope. As a result, these two rolled down the slope as they were holding tight to each other.

Vicente fixed his eyes on the screen until this scene ended. He said, "Yes, that's it! Get ready for the next scene!"

On the other side, Natalia and Mac got up in a relief.

Jessica was sitting next to him the whole time and Vicente just completely ignored her. She bit her lip and felt a burning sense of shame on her face.

She thought Vicente was just a newbie. She hadn't made it to the A-list but she was better than those in the B-list. Even though her reputation was not as good as before, she still had great commercial value. Every director would treat her nicely.

So why did Vicente give her that look?

Jessica was furious but she had to hold back her feelings on the set.

She gnashed her teeth for a long time before she finally stood up and left angrily.
