Chapter 749 The Final Apprentice
Daryl, who was curled up on the sofa, stiffened suddenly. When Daryl came back to her senses, Paul had already.
disappeared from the villa. She nestled on the sofa and smiled sadly, shaking her head and reaching out to gently wipe
away the tears on her face.
Daryl thought in mind, 'What does he just mean by his words? Is he angry with me for not playing the role of Lucia well,
or do I no longer need to play the role of Lucia..."
Paul came out of the house and went straight to the bar. Glasses of liquor crossed his throat. His consciousness began to
fade. But the figure in his head became clearer and clearer, along with her voice that was once full of confidence, "One
day I will make you understand that I am not Lucia, I am Daryl."
Since when did the woman who was so full of confidence become what she was now? She shouldn't be like this! Why did
she let others bully her? Why didn't she know how to fight back?
The scene of Zoey arrogantly bullying Daryl reappeared in his mind. He clutched his wine glass tightly, and anger
gradually surged up in his misty eyes.
He immediately dialed Archie's phone. His tone was very serious and he said, "Bring forward the plan and find a way to
block Advanced Technology's capital chain immediately, the sooner the better."
"Mr. Thomas, this does not seem to be the time to make a move, and you..."
"Do as I say!" He said with fierceness word for word, "I will make the Ximenez family disappear forever in Austos City!"
Sooner or later, his score with Daryl would be settled, but not by Zoey!
As the weather cooled and Christmas Affair 4 was over. All of Lucia's work came to an end and now there seemed to be
nothing to do except to pick up Timothy and Janet. When Leo called, she was in the kitchen doing "biochemistry
experiments". Hanging up the phone, she left the messy kitchen to Turner and took a quick ride to her destination.
There was an old man sitting in the courtyard of the antique house. When he saw Leo and Lucia walking into the
courtyard together, he waved warmly at them.
"Mr. Alcott." Leo bowed respectfully to the old man, then pointed to Lucia and introduced her, "This is Lucia I told you." Hearing that Leo called the old man Mr. Alcott, she immediately greeted him nicely, "Hello Mr. Alcott, I've long heard
about you."
There was a kind and benevolent smile on Mr. Alcott's face. Seeing that she was a little nervous, he waved his hand and
said, "Don't feel nervous. It's okay to be relaxed."
He greeted the two people to sit down, while he asked Leo with a smile, "I heard that you've been losing your temper on
the set again?"
Leo, who was always known for his bad temper, seemed obedient and docile at this time, just like a mouse seeing a cat.
When he heard that, he said, "Mr. Alcott, who is talking nonsense in front of you again? I am much gentler now,
otherwise, those incompetent actors would have been removed from my films."
Mr. Alcott educated, "Young people should know how to adapt to the trend. Don't mind as long as they do not affect the
effect of the finished film. The young actors nowadays are indeed a bit eager to succeed, so you should educate them
more."
"Mr. Alcott, you are right." Leo nodded in response, then invited Lucia to sit on the stone bench with him and
respectfully said to Mr. Alcott, "Mr. Alcott, Lucia is indeed a rare and promising talent, so I bring her here today to ask
you to give her some guidance."
"Oh, I'm old and old-fashioned, so I have nothing to teach you anymore. But I would be happy to discuss with you the
current shooting techniques." Mr. Alcott was very modest and was never haughty. When Lucia knew that he was
friendly, her nervousness was slightly relieved.
Mr, Alcott's eyes slowly fell on her, and the approval in his words was undisguised. He praised, "I have seen the
Chapter 749 The Final Apprentice
animation film you directed before, and it is remarkable."

Lucia was surprised and delighted, saying, "Mr. Alcott, you've seen it? There is still room for improvement in my work.
Please tell me more about it."
Mr. Alcott picked up a slightly worn notebook from the nearby coffee table and flipped through the pages with his thin,
old hands. He showed her the questions he had recorded. After listening to his explanation, Lucia immediately had at
feeling of enlightenment. At the same time, she thought of more questions about filming, from camera transitions to
regulating the actors' working manner. One of them was willing to ask and the other was willing to explain. The two of
them had a great time together and were still wondering discussing until it was getting dark.
Leo touched the cool tea and reminded in a low voice, "Mr. Alcott is old and needs to eat and rest early. I'll bring you here
next time."
Only then did she react as an afterthought and explained with some embarrassment, "I'm really sorry. It's rare to learn
so much, so I've paid no attention to time."
"Never mind." Mr. Alcott looked at her carefully and said in a soft voice, "If you don't mind my old-school approach, I'll
take you as my final apprentice, okay?"
