Chapter 302
Jonathan pressed his thin lips. He would never give Calvin that chance!
In the private room, Calvin pulled out the platinum necklace from his neck. There was a small silver bracelet hanging on it.
Calvin rubbed the bracelet gently. He had done this for so many years that the bracelet was already polished.
This bracelet was like the whole world to him.
It turned out that there was a kind of miss in this world, which could be so heartbreaking. With the accumulation of time, this miss kept precipitating in the bones and blood.
“Cut!” the director shouted again. Then he said to Loretta angrily, “What’s going on? Is it so difficult for you to show your sadness? You’ve been an actor for several years.”
Loretta could only nod when the director scolded her. But she had hatred in her heart.
In the past, this director was submissive to her. She could finish her shooting quickly. Unless she asked for re-shooting, the director dared not to say something bad about her.
But now, the director scolded her directly.
The other actors around them all looked at Loretta with sarcasm and disdain.
Loretta stood aside and was preparing for the shooting. Then she heard the other actress’ words. “She does not have any acting skills, and she is not beautiful. But she is still the female lead in this play. She is so shameless!”
“Well, she was lucky in the past, and what can you do? She was Mr. Gunner’s girlfriend in the past, and she thought she could marry into a rich and powerful f
family. But now, Mr. Gunner breaks up with her.”
“Mr. Gunner probably also thinks that she is too disgusting. She even did something to frame her sister. She can embarrass herself, but now, she even hurt the whole crew!”
“Fortunately, the director has compressed her part now. Otherwise, our crew will be dissolved!”
the Loretta was angry, but she could not say anything. Originally, she wanted to make a turnaround with this play. But now, crew severely compressed her part and even rewrote the script. Now, she was less important than the third leading actress. To finish the play smoothly and avoid paying liquidated damages, she could only endure others’ ridicule and mockery repeatedly.
These people flattered her in the past, but now, they changed their attitudes completely.
What was worse, those advertisements and endorsements that had been signed were now all terminated the contract with her for those scandals. She even needed to pay the default losses.
If she needed to pay the liquidated damages, she should pay with all the houses, jewelry, brand-name items, and money from Calvin.
But in that case, she had nothing left!
How could she bear this?
She murmured through her gritted teeth, “Rosalie, if it weren’t for Rosalie…” Loretta hated Rosalie even more after thinking of this!
Someone broke into the crew during the shooting. Loretta looked at that man and was shocked. That man was Calvin’s subordinate.
The man walked to the director. He talked to the director and then walked to Loretta. “Ms. Leighton, Mr. Gunner wants to see you.”
Loretta was overjoyed.
She wondered whether Calvin changed his mind.
Loretta looked around at the people who had just ridiculed her and felt extremely happy!
As long as she became Calvin’s girlfriend again, she would let these people leave the entertainment industry!
Loretta left the crew arrogantly.
But when she saw Calvin, she found it was not what she thought.
Because she saw Calvin in the lockup. Her parents were also in the meeting room of the lockup.
Calvin was sitting in a chair and enjoying the coffee lazily.
Her parents, however, shrank in the corner on one side of the table, trembling with fear.
Loretta bit her lips and felt nervous.
She thought, “What was going on? Why did Calvin come here?”
She knew that her parents had been detained, but she didn’t pay attention to this. Anyway, it would be fine as long as the media did not know this matter.
But now…
“Calvin, why should we meet here?” Loretta said in a soft voice, looking pitiful, “But it’s so nice of you to see me. Can you help me? I don’t want my parents to be detained here because of a misunderstanding.”
Then she acted like a filial daughter and blamed all her parents’ actions on the misunderstandings.
“Misunderstanding?” Calvin said indifferently, “Your parents made trouble with Rosalie. Did you give them her address?”
Loretta changed her expression, while Gordon and Caitlin shivered again.
“You are not smart enough. I chose this place especially, because I wanted your parents to listen to the conversation. As for your work, it’s all over. When your parents leave the lockup, you guys leave here immediately. I don’t want to see you guys in Strico anymore. If I see you again, it will be a great trouble for you.”
Loretta was stunned. “Does he want us to leave Strico?”
And she bore so much for the play she was shooting. She just wanted to make a turnaround with this play. Did she lose the opportunity to make a turnaround?
“Calvin, you can’t do this to me. If you let me stop working now, how can I work in the entertainment industry? My connections, the agency company, and my parents had been in Strico for a lifetime. How can I leave here?”
Calvin said lightly, “From now on, no one will hire you in the entertainment industry. So don’t worry about your connections and agency company. If you don’t want to leave here, you should bear the consequence of this decision.”
Loretta was shocked. “Is he going to ban me from the entertainment circle?”
Gordon and Caitlin wanted to say something, but they were scared. What Calvin did have scared them before Loretta came here.
“Calvin… It is unfair. My parents said something bad about Rosalie, and you are going to shut me up. You even want us to leave Strico!”
Loretta approached Calvin as she said.
But when Loretta was a few steps away from Calvin, the bodyguard of Calvin stopped her directly.
