The following day, Sophia and Chloe would visit Helena on the set, so Helena waited for them.
After finishing several scenes, Helena studied the playscript. A bottle of water appeared in her sight.
She looked up and saw Alfred standing before her.
She had to admit Alfred was handsome. He had fair skin and delicate features. Although he looked childish, Helena thought he was manly after working with him for a while.
"You haven't drunk water in the whole morning. Have some."
Helena took the bottle over with a polite smile. "Thanks, Alfred."
Alfred sat next to her. "You always study the playscript when it's not your scene. Only a few actors and actresses are as hard-working as you nowadays."
"Don't you always study it as well?"
Except for the incident, in the beginning, Alfred acted professionally.
"In my opinion, no matter what I am doing, I must do it well. I can't quit it before I've succeeded. I cannot muddle along. That's why I reminded myself to work hard all the time."
"Few actors think the way that you think," Helena remarked.
Tilting his head, Alfred asked, "Helena, may I take it as a compliment?"
Helena chuckled, "Sure. Of course."
His smile while he tilted his head made him look charming. If it were another woman, she might exclaim in excitement. However, Helena had no particular feelings.
When Alfred stared at her, he thought she was gorgeous. Unlike other actresses, who became beautiful because of plastic surgery, Helena was a natural beauty. Also, she was better looking than many other actresses.
Alfred liked her not only for her appearance but also for other reasons.
He felt lucky to look at her at such a short distance.
When Sophia and Chloe arrived at the set, they saw Travis unexpectedly. Before Sophia greeted him, Chloe stopped her.
Sophia looked at her in confusion, but Chloe hinted at her to follow Travis' gaze.
Then Sophia saw Helena chatting with Alfred. They looked like a perfect match.
Sophia immediately understood why Chloe had stopped her.
Meanwhile, the director sent a staff member to remind the two to get ready for the next scene, which was an intimate scene.
Before starting, the director explained the procedure in detail.
Although both Helena and Alfred were experienced, the director wished they could do better.
"Am I understood?"
Helena and Alfred nodded.
No one noticed Alfred blushed. It was understandable as it was hot summer, and others thought he might feel hot.
However, Alfred knew it wasn't because of that.
Earlier, they had filmed many intimate scenes where they only hugged. However, this one was different, as they would have more interactions.
Although all were fake, Alfred couldn't help getting excited.
"All right. Action!"
Helena was truly professional. Right after the director announced, she was immersed in her role. Alfred felt it.
Firstly, they kissed.
"Ahem... Ahem..."
Travis couldn't pretend to be invisible anymore.
His coughs attracted everyone's attention.
Alfred recognized him and knew he was Sophia's older brother, wondering why he was here.
