Chapter 89 A Beauty with Multiple Masks
Arielle was even more confused. “You got it wrong yourself. Why do I need to be there to correct your mistake?” Vinson ignored Rayson, who was waving like a madman outside and sped away in his car. On the way to the scene, Arielle finally understood what was going on. “So, she stole the name card from me?” she glanced at Vinson and asked. Vinson was overwhelmed with mixed emotions. Many people would die to get his name card, but the name card he gave Arielle was stolen easily.
He wanted to yell at her, but it didn’t seem right to do so. In the end, Vinson said nothing. His silence caused the air in the car to tense up. At the filming site, Shandie finally showed her true colors after signing the contract. Like a diva, she declared, “I said, I don’t want to look grimy! That will affect my popularity!”
Jerry flashed an apologetic grin and explained, “But this is a disaster film. The audience will complain if you don’t look like the character. Can you please cooperate? I can ask the makeup artist to make you look less dirty.” Slam! Shandie slammed on the table furiously. “Don’t you understand? I said, no!” Suddenly, the door was pushed open. Jerry glanced at the door and promptly stiffened. He forced out a smile and went over.
“Mr. Sleight, sorry for the long wait. The makeup will be done soon.” “Save it.” Sam tossed his staff ID to Jerry and announced, “I quit. Get yourself another director.” A shiver ran down Jerry’s spine as he nearly fell to his knees. “Mr. Sleight, you can’t quit all of a sudden!” pleaded Jerry. On the contrary, Shandie was crossing her legs impatiently. Ha! Sam is upset at me because I didn’t receive any professional training! Initially, Shandie picked Sam for he was a famous director.
Still, as she got to know more about the film industry, the respect she had for Sam dwindled away. This was the first blockbuster disaster film in the country, adapted from a popular comic series that had topped the charts for two years. The cast consisted of popular actors and actresses, so changing the director wouldn’t be a big deal. With her legs crossed, Shandie uttered, “Let him go. Get another director now. I can’t believe he accused me of being an unprofessional actress.
He’s the unprofessional one! Even if he didn’t quit, I’d fire him! If you don’t get another director, I shall ask Nightshire Group to pull out their investment!” Oh, no. Jerry was in a tight spot. Sam glared at Shandie and retaliated, “I shall kowtow to you if the film succeeds! You’re the reason the film is ruined!”
Given an actress like her… No, she doesn’t deserve to be called an actress. I don’t understand why Vinson insisted she should take up the lead role. I can’t believe I agreed to his condition! I shouldn’t have done so! Shandie jumped up in anger and dashed toward Sam. She grabbed the corner of his shirt and demanded, “What did you say? Say that again if you dare! Aren’t you afraid I’d ask Mr. Nightshire to blacklist you in the film industry?”
Right then, a tall figure strode in. “Nobody told me I’d be blacklisting Mr. Sleight,” came a low and icy drawl. Immediately, everyone turned toward the door. Shandie was irritated by how bossy the newcomer was. She glanced at the door in displeasure, but the moment she saw who it was, the color drained from her face.
