Please Come Back, Honey! novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55

After the encounter with Trevor which had worsened their relationship, Emma just stayed home and worked hard on writing her script.

She wanted to finish the script as soon as possible so that the production company could begin filming the TV show and she could cease interacting with Trevor.

Despite the fact that she knew her plan was unrealistic, even if she finished her script, the production crew would still call her if there were any difficulties during the filming process. It was better for her to finish everything earlier so she could draw the line with Trevor, wasn‘t it?

Usually, an episode of a show was within the range of 12,000 to 15,000 words. Emma stayed focused day and night to complete the script for an episode in a day. Her head would hurt from working too much sometimes.

One day, she received a call from Joseph. “Little Yates, we faced some problems while preparing for the shoot, and we‘d like to discuss them with you. Would you be free to talk about it over lunch later?”

“Sure. Just tell me the venue.” Emma promised him.

In the production of a show, it was usual for the director and scriptwriter to have discussions.

It just so happened that she was exhausted from writing, so she went out to unwind for a while.

Soon. Joseph sent an address to her. It would lead her to a restaurant at Jonestown Film Studio. Emma left for the location after she got ready.

When she arrived at the private room in the restaurant, she knocked on the door and entered. The sight of the middle–aged man who was sitting beside him greeted her, and his appearance made her frown.

The man was an assistant director on Joseph‘s team. Susanna criticized him a lot because he was perverted and had a history of harassing many actresses.

However, he did not dare to harass the actresses who were already famous.

He targeted those actresses who were either new in the industry or those who were

timid because they would stay silent about his harassment.

Emma had a hunch that something bad would happen when she looked at the man.

The last time Emma had dinner with Joseph, Joseph‘s hand almost touched her waist,

and it traumatized her for quite some time after she went home.

Hence, she made sure to dress as conservatively as she could this time. She was dressed in a long–slceve blouse and a pair of long jeans, hiding all of her curves and skin as she was afraid that her dress would attract men with bad intentions again.

After greeting them, Emma went over, and as soon as she took her seat, the assistant director‘s hand smoothly rested on her shoulder.

The man stared at her beautiful face brazenly. “Emma, how old are you this year? You look so young and youthful.”

As he said that, he tried to touch Emma‘s face. Emma could not stand it anymore and stood up, avoiding this touch.

Forcing a smile on her lips, Emma said, “I‘m sorry. I need to use the washroom.”

The first thing Emma did after leaving the private room was to call Susanna to tell her that she had met the perverted assistant director.

Susanna suddenly grew cautious. “Find an excuse and leave. That man is disgusting.”

Emma was in a dilemma. “But we still need to work together for the entire production soon. It‘s not wise for me to offend them now.”

Susanna had already risen to fame, so she could ignore all the shameless men, but it was a different case for Emma.

At most, Emma was just a talented scriptwriter. Before she became successful, she could not afford to offend anyone,

Susanna said, “I can‘t leave right now. Otherwise, I could go over and accompany you.”

As Susanna was already selected for the role of the queen consort, it was normal for her to have meals together with the director and scriptwriter.
