Chapter 21 Gossips in the Showbiz
"Cut!" Mel shouted, "Let's rest for ten minutes before filming. Sheila, come over here!"
"Director." Sheila had made mistakes for like ten times and was also impatient. She walked over to the
director and asked, "Is there anything wrong with my acting?"
"There's nothing right with your acting!" Mel roared, not showing any mercy.
Eva was waiting in the lounge for her scenes. However, after waiting for two hours, the director still did
not call her. Instead, she saw Sam walking straight towards the lounge.
"Mr. Field, what's wrong?" Eva looked at Sam's somewhat agitated face and asked carefully.
Sam looked at Eva and restrained his anger. He complained, "It's all because of that spoiled princess.
She probably used up all her acting skills in her life during the audition."
Sam was currently the most popular male actor. He won a lot of awards last year, and he was worthy of
being a powerful actor. Moreover, he had a lot of fans and was usually friendly and approachable. It
was very rare for her to be so pissed off like this.
There were some things that Sam could say casually, but Eva, who was a nameless nobody, could not
say it out loud. She could only give a short laugh and pass Sam a cup of warm water. "This may help
you calm down."
"I can't calm down. I have to go shoot that scene with her later. It's just eating, but she made me feed
her a dozen times. Did she fall in love with me and do that on purpose?" Sam kept complaining.
Gemma, sitting aside, chimed in and teased him, "Yes, she fell in love with you. How can a noble
consort not fall in love with the King?"
"Well, as the King, I choose you to serve me tonight," Sam smiled at her.
"I dare you sleep with someone else." Gemma was still smiling, but Eva felt a chill running down her
spine.
Sam immediately apologized, "My bad."
"Humph." Gemma turned her head and no longer looked at Sam.
Sam was not angry. He was wearing a costume and sat on the chair. He quietly took out his mobile
phone and began to play games. Eva had sharp eyes and found that the prestigious actor Sam Field
was playing games. However, his account was at a low level. Interesting.
"Mr. Field, you also play this game. Come, come on let's play together." Eva felt that it was too dull to
sit still. She took the initiative to invite Sam to play games with her.
In the face of Eva's invitation, Sam readily agreed and did not ask what level Eva was at. Anyway, there
was no lower level of his.
"In that case, would you mind if I add you on WhatsApp, Mr. Field?" Eva asked.
"Don't call me Mr. Field. I'm not much older than you, so just call me Sam." After interacting with Eva
for a period, Sam had a good impression of her.
Eva changed how she addressed him, and she added Sam on WhatsApp. Looking at his avatar, Eva
was a little doubtful about life. If a nickname like GM didn't seem suspicious, using a photo of Gemma's
back as an avatar would...
"Sam, you and Gemma... well?" Eva had a conflicted expression on her face. She felt that she was
truly gossipy right now.
"She's y Empress," Sam said as a matter of course.
"Am I the only one who doesn't know?" Eva pulled the second male lead Adam McCallum to the side,
who had just arrived at the set today, and asked him.
Adam grinned like a hooligan. "Yes, only you don't know."
Adam was filming another period drama. He had rushed here immediately after the filming had
finished. He had not even participated in the launch conference. Mel had never announced who the
second male lead was. Therefore, when Eva saw the second male lead this morning, she didn't know
how to address him.
Adam had just debuted last year. Both his appearance and acting skills were great. Sam once praised
him in an interview. He said that in less than two years, Adam would definitely be the next best actor.
Eva once again began to doubt herself. She had clearly been in the entertainment industry for more Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
than a year and had yet to make a name for herself. She didn't even know the gossip in the industry,
and she simply didn't seem like a person from the entertainment industry! She was too unprofessional!
"Come, come, come, let's play the game together. Don't be stunned. It's not too late to know now. Even
Sam's fans don't know." Adam's obsession with games was unparalleled. If not for the makeup on the
next day, he would probably be able to play games all night.
Eva shook her head. "Sam's fans know."
Gemma immediately jumped up and asked, "Who knows?"
"Me." Eva pointed her finger at herself and said seriously.
She had watched the movie Sam won last year more than ten times. She had carefully mulled over
each of his expressions, and she could not find a better way to perform than Sam at that time. From
then on, Eva admired Sam very much. In order not to cause trouble, she forcibly suppressed her
admiration.
Adam immediately shouted, "No, how can you like Sam? You should like a handsome young man like
me."
"Sorry, I just love older man," Eva said with an embarrassed look.
"Who is an old man! I am not!" Sam immediately retorted. He had always been very sensitive to age
problem.
When Gemma heard Eva's words, she heaved a sigh of relief. She thought that she had given herself
away and was discovered by Sam's fans. Her heart was in her throat.
The three of them bickered, getting along very well. Sheila, who was in front of the director, was not so
relaxed.
Mel kept scolding Sheila, who looked at him with aggravation and red eyes.
"Don't pretend to be pitiful. It's useless. If you still can't act well, I will fire you!" Mel said fiercely. He was
not in the mood to be tender to the fairer sex.
She had wasted an entire morning on a simple scene!
"Alright, rest for half an hour. I'll shoot the others' scenes first. You think about the problem yourself.
Just get back home if you can't do it in the afternoon!" Mel angrily waved Sheila away and called Adam
and Eva over.
Mel was talented and had a temper. No matter what background you had, when you came to the crew,
just stay there and act honestly. He didn't care about anything else.
In the end, Eva and Sam did not succeed in playing games but were called over by the director.
"Eva, it's the first day you see Adam. It just so happens that we will film a scene of your first meeting
later. Whoever makes mistakes again, just get back home. Don't waste your life here!" Mel had not
cooled down yet, and he also spoke to Adam and Eva in a fierce tone.
"Okay, director, I will definitely do my best," Eva replied obediently.
Adam also nodded with a serious look on his face.
The two of them were professional enough. Even if they were under pressure from the director, they
still did a good job of showing their strengths and managed to make it through in one go. This made
Mel, who was about to lose his temper, calm down. He didn't get mad.
During the half-hour of rest, Sheila used ten minutes to mend her makeup. She called Brody and
complained for ten minutes. In the last ten minutes, she looked at Eva's performance and felt that it
was just so-so. The director definitely had a problem with her!
She sneered. Let's wait and see whether the director would be audacious enough to defy her or money
would solve the problem.
