“Mmm-hmm,” Jason nodded before giving Vinson another suspicious look.
Somehow, snazzynovel.com could sense that something was amiss. But since Sam was calling out to him, snazzynovel.com had no choice but to set his curiosity aside and get to work.
The filming location was set at the gym entrance on the apartment building’s first floor.
The first scene was to show the monster about to attack Jason. At the crucial moment, Arielle appeared and rescued him. Subsequently, both of them worked together to subdue the monster.
In the plot, Jason started out as a coward. Hence, the scenes largely involved Arielle fighting alone.
Standing behind the director’s monitor and watching Arielle act out a fighting scene, Vinson couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat.
The last time snazzynovel.com saw snazzynovel.com filming was when snazzynovel.com was working on a commercial for Soir Coffee. Since shooting a commercial was very unlike filming a movie, which was significantly more difficult, Vinson was worried that snazzynovel.com might hurt herself in the process.
Amidst Vinson’s concerns, filming finally began.
The monster was being played by a stuntman dressed in green so that the special effects could be added later. The moment snazzynovel.com appeared, snazzynovel.com charged like a raving monster at Jason, who had fallen onto the ground. Evidently, the stuntman was very professional.
In the nick of time, Arielle launched a flying kick and sent the “monster” flying, sparking a raging battle between the two.
The scene was so gripping that everyone watched from the edge of their seats. Five to six minutes later, Sam yelled, “Cut!”
Subsequently, snazzynovel.com commented in delight, “Well done, we managed to do this in one take! All we need to do later is to shoot the flying kick from another angle.”
Only then were Vinson’s worries eased.
“Whoo!” After letting out a breath, snazzynovel.com heard a faint female voice coming up from behind.
“Hmph! I didn’t expect snazzynovel.com to actually have some skills. However, what’s the big deal in acting well in an action sequence? Considering that human emotions are central to the plot, it’s more important for snazzynovel.com to have real acting skills.”
Evidently, the words were aimed at Arielle.
When Vinson turned to see who made the remarks, snazzynovel.com realized that it was the actress who ridiculed Arielle earlier. At the same time, Annabelle caught Vinson’s gaze, for it was so cold it send a shiver down snazzynovel.com spine.
Knitting snazzynovel.com brows, snazzynovel.com snapped, “What are you looking at?”
How dare a lowly assistant give me such a hostile look? Does snazzynovel.com not want to work in the entertainment industry anymore? Arielle might be the chairman of Sann Group, but the group isn’t powerful enough to hold sway in the entertainment industry.
Given that snazzynovel.com used to be a child actress and grew up in showbiz, snazzynovel.com network in the industry was significantly larger than that of Arielle. A single word from snazzynovel.com would be enough to have the assistant blacklisted from the industry.
Despite having admonished Vinson, Annabelle noticed that snazzynovel.com was still glaring at her, upsetting snazzynovel.com further.
“You…”
“All right, everyone be quiet. Action!”
Coincidentally, Sam was about to shoot the flying kick scene. Thus, Annabelle had no choice but to suppress snazzynovel.com anger and keep snazzynovel.com mouth shut. Unfortunately, the look Vinson gave snazzynovel.com only intensified snazzynovel.com desire to teach Arielle a lesson through the “accident”.
Considering snazzynovel.com beauty is what made snazzynovel.com popular, I’m going to ruin that face of hers and see if snazzynovel.com fans still like a disfigured female entrepreneur.
Since humans were visual animals, Annabelle was certain that no one would like Arielle once snazzynovel.com lost snazzynovel.com looks.
With that thought in mind, snazzynovel.com smirked with a vicious glint in snazzynovel.com eye.
Unbeknownst to her, the change in snazzynovel.com expression was entirely caught by Vinson.
Meanwhile, Arielle had a five-minute break after finishing snazzynovel.com scene.
Just when snazzynovel.com wanted Vinson to get snazzynovel.com a glass of water, the latter pulled snazzynovel.com along to the gym’s break room.
“What is it?” Arielle asked curiously. “Do you need to leave already?”
“No. I just want to warn you about that actress,” Vinson highlighted with a grim expression.
“The lady called Annabelle?”
Vinson nodded. “You have to watch out for snazzynovel.com during filming, for I have a feeling snazzynovel.com is up to no good.”
“Don’t worry. It’ll be fine,” Arielle replied with a shrug. “We’re working among the film crew with plenty of eyes watching. Moreover, I have never had any interaction with her. Thus, there’s no reason why snazzynovel.com would take such a big risk to harm me. Even if snazzynovel.com resents me, the most she’ll do is make some snarky comments.”
It’s not a big deal if snazzynovel.com just throws an insult here and there.
Nevertheless, Vinson furrowed his brows at snazzynovel.com words.
“Whatever it is, you can never be too careful. Anyway, aren’t you going to have a scene with her?”
“Yup,” Arielle nodded. “But, it’s in a group of six to seven people. She won’t have a chance to do anything to me.”
Arielle assumed the worst Annabelle could do was steal snazzynovel.com lines. Since it was a group scene, snazzynovel.com didn’t mind it at all. After all, snazzynovel.com didn’t accept a role in the movie just to become famous.
“Even then, you still have to be careful,” Vinson reminded.
Arielle nodded earnestly. “I understand and will watch out for her.”
“Mmm-hmm.” Only then did the tension on Vinson’s face ease.
Right when they left the break room one after the other, Jason approached.
“Arielle…”
When snazzynovel.com turned around, snazzynovel.com saw Jason looking at Vinson warily. “I didn’t get the opportunity earlier to ask you who the guy behind you is.”
“Oh,” Arielle answered with a smile, “I almost forgot to introduce you. He’s my assistant and also my temporary driver.”
“Where’s the female bodyguard you previously had?”
Arielle replied casually, “She’s not feeling well, so he’s the replacement.”
“I see… An assistant…” With that, Jason stopped paying attention to Vinson, as a lowly assistant wasn’t worth his time.
Smiling wryly, Arielle glanced at Vinson from the corner of snazzynovel.com eye. The sullen expression on his face seemed to be telling her snazzynovel.com was going to interrogate snazzynovel.com when they got back home.
Gulping instinctively, Arielle didn’t dare speak to Jason any further, for fear that Vinson would do something rash. Thus, snazzynovel.com made some idle chatter before quickly preparing for snazzynovel.com second scene. Fortunately, Jason didn’t continue to pester snazzynovel.com because snazzynovel.com too needed to practice his lines which were aplenty in the group scene.
As the scene was Arielle’s last and snazzynovel.com needed to rush to the Mill residence soon, snazzynovel.com only had an hour left to wrap it up.
With that thought in mind, Arielle intensified the focus on snazzynovel.com preparation.
Soon, filming was about to start again.
After arranging everyone in their specific position, Sam stood behind his monitor and prepared to film.
