Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1286

"I said, stop beating!" Luella thumped her chest, cursing her own uselessness. Yes, Jimmie's face and body were absolute perfection, but she had looked at thousands of photos of hot guys. She shouldn't be losing her mind over this!

The sky began to dim.

"Cut!" The director yelled, signaling the end of the shoot.

"Great work, everyone," Jimmie said politely.

Clark rushed over with a jacket and draped it over his boss's shoulders. "Mr. Langley is here," he whispered.

"At this hour?" Jimmie turned and spotted Luella standing under a large tree, dramatically thumping her own chest as if trying to start a fight with herself.

"Get some rest tonight, Mr. Tate. We'll wrap up the final shots tomorrow," the director said with a warm smile.

"Sounds good," Jimmie nodded smoothly. "Whatever works for the schedule."

"Perfect!" The director beamed. There was a reason everyone in the industry wanted to work with him. He was professional, dedicated, and incredibly easy to get along with. It was no wonder he was the undisputed king of the entertainment world.

Once he was fully dressed, Jimmie walked straight toward Luella.

"Hey, Jimmie." Seeing him approach, Luella immediately flashed a bright smile, her dimples showing clearly on her small face.

"Why did you come all the way out here now?" Jimmie looked her over. Her hair was damp with sweat, and her shoes were caked in mud. She had clearly rushed.

"The earring is in the RV. Come with me," he said, his voice gravelly.

"Okk." Luella quickly followed, her hurried steps causing her to crash right into his back.

"Ah, sorry," she laughed awkwardly, rubbing her forehead.

He just looked at her without a word.

Today's theme was a "sunset shoot," so the location was a bit far from their base camp—about a ten-minute walk through the woods.

"Do you like it?" Jimmie asked quietly, keeping his eyes on the path ahead, his hands tucked into his pockets.

"Huh?" Luella craned her neck, looking completely lost.
