The crowd was shocked.
As soon as Pearl heard the voice, her face froze. She looked at the source of the voice, and saw the familiar figure surrounded by people.
He was tall and attractive. Dressing in a straight black suit with deep and calm facial features, his eyes were cold and happened to be looking at her.
"Mr. Zellweger..." Evelina's face turned pale slightly.
She still remembered that on her birthday party, Richard defended Pearl in public. Today, it happened that they come here together, which made her nervous.
"It seems that the actor has the power in crew" said Richard with a cold face and a cold voice. "Even can decide a staff's future?"
The producer's face changed and said, "Of course not, this is a misunderstanding."
When he was saying, he quickly winked at Evelina. "Right, Evelina?"
Evelina cared her reputation the most, especially among the crew members. Apart from the director, she didn't care anyone else. Her hard established prestige has disappeared, and her face is red with embarrassment.
"I'm just discussing the script with the medical consultant of the crew. I'm a little excessive. Sorry."
The producer let out a sigh of relief and said, "See, Mr. Zellweger, it was just a misunderstanding. They were discussing the script."
"Really? What were you discussing? Tell me about it." Richard asked.
No one expected Richard to pursue the matter further. No one expected that Richard would care this matter so much. It made people stunned enough that he, an investor, took time off to visit the set. His time was precious, after all.
Everyone was surprised. Those around Pearl started to look at her with meaningful eyes.
Evelina panicked for a moment and didn't know what to say. The atmosphere was suddenly deadlocked.
The air seemed to be freezing, and people around did not dared even to breathe.
Pearl frowned. She didn't want to make things to a big deal. So she clutched the script in her hand and explained, "It's a secne in the operating room. I said that few doctors wear high-heeled shoes. But Evelinafelt that drama and reality still need to be distinguished and can't be fully life-oriented, so we had different opinions about it."
Evelina didn't expect that Pearl was going to help her. She was stunned for a while. After seeing the producer winking hard to her, she quickly answered, "Yes, Mr. Zellweger, that's the case. Now I think I'm not considerate enough. I'll listen to Dr. Yonng in the future. After all, she's professional."
Although she said that, she was definitely unwilling.
If it weren't Richard, she would never concede to Pearl. It was a humiliation to her.
She thought that would be the end, but Richard said, "isn't the medical consultant in charge of the medical profession? Why is it even in charge of what actors wear?
The situation changed completely.
Pearl's heart clicked. She looked at Richard in shock.
Just a second ago, she thought Richard was here to help her out, but the aggressive words were still echoing. It was definitely not what she thought.
Evelina was also shocked, not understanding what was happening.
"Shouldn't everyone just be responsible for their own job?" Richard looked at Pearl with his cold eyes.
Pearl didn't want to argue with him. She just frowned and said nothing.
The producer next to him wanted to ease things over and said, "Mr. Zellweger is right. Everyone should do their own job well. Then we can finish everything efficiently. Ok. let's have some rest. Mr. Zellweger has brought snacks for everyone. Pass them around."
