Milly couldn’t understand why Oliver was so excited about how she needed to remove the bracelet.
Did he want her to recommend him to someone else? Could it be George?
That made sense. After all, the Tates‘ entertainment company was quite large. He probably wanted her to connect him with George and introduce him to more resources.
If it meant distancing herself from the Tates, she could certainly help.
Milly nodded. “Sure.”
Oliver’s face lit up with joy. He started jumping around excitedly and exclaiming sharply, “Ms. Milly, you’re the best! Don’t worry! I won’t tell anyone about your mission. My lips are sealed!”
Oliver’s face was flushed with happiness.
Woohoo! The sect leader promised to promote me! It means I can strut around in the Ghost Sect without worrying about failing tasks! Others won’t make fun of me when I fail the mission!
Milly furrowed her brow in confusion as she looked at the overjoyed Oliver.
Why is he so happy? With his current fan base and status in the entertainment industry, he doesn’t need the Tates to get good resources, right?
Maybe the resources from the Tates are exceptionally good?
I don’t understand.
The first scene involved Milly, Stephanie, and Neal.
It was a simple scene. Milly played Giselle, who admired and had a crush on Neal’s character, Hubert. She was willing to give up her ballerina dream for him. However, Hubert falls for another girl, Judy, played by Stephanie.
Ciselle caught Neal and Judy being intimate and confronted them, only to leave them heartbroken.
Alan held the script and explained the scene to the trio. He said, “This scene, though simple, is also challenging. Your character, Milly, has the most emotional fluctuations in the scene. You must be well aware of emotional changes.
“As for Stephanie and Neal, just speak naturally as you normally would. You don’t need to have any
emotional burden.”
He checked the lighting and the set before waving his hand. Alan instructed, “Alright, everyone needs to get in position. We’re starting soon.”
Stephanie followed behind Neal and said sweetly, “Neal, this is my first time acting. Can you guide me?”
Neal beamed and agreed, “Of course.”

Milly had been completely ignored.
They’re asking for guidance now! Right before shooting?

After being affectionate for a while, Stephanie finally remembered Milly’s existence. She turned over her shoulder to look at Milly and asked, “Do you need Neal’s help? He’s really good at this”
Neai couldn’t resist such flattery. His face flushed red at the praise, and he instinctively held his head a bit higher.
“Milly, do you want me to help you get into character?”
Milly? Did I know him well?
Milly responded softly, “No, thank you.”
Just as Stephanie was about to continue being a goody–two–shoes as she always did, the clapperboard guy stepped forward and declared. “Silent Seal Scene onel Take one, action!”
Milly exhaled a sigh of relief, quickly getting into character. The estranged look in her eyes has vanished and was now replaced by the joy of seeing her lover, Hubert. But the next moment, she noticed the girl standing closely beside him.
Immediately, a sense of devastation washed over her.
Her legs trembled, and she ran towards them in panic.
Alan saw her performance through the lens and nodded approvingly. This girl was impressive. For her first acting experience, she managed to handle the emotions well but also knew how to position herself for the
camera.
If he hadn’t personally recruited her from high school, he would’ve thought she was a seasoned child star.
Giselle ran to the affectionate Hubert and Judy! Her eyes had turned red, and she questioned, “Hubert. who is she?
Hubert was momentarily stunned when she showed up all of a sudden. He asked in a daze, “Giselle, why are you here?”
Giselle’s breath came in heavy gasps, as if she couldn’t believe what she was seeing. Her face was full of heartbreak, and her tear–streaked face made Neal feel a pang of genuine distress.
“Cutl
Alan suddenly asked them to stop.
He glared furiously at Stephanie, who stood there motionless. Alan asked, “Stephanie, what are you doing? At this moment, you should look at Giselle, who is confused and at a loss, rather than glare at her. You stole her man, not the other way around!”
Milly and Neal had performed well, but Stephanie’s emotional expression was completely wrong.
The director’s shout took Stephanie by surprise. She quickly bowed in, apologised, and said, “I’m sorry. I got distracted.

Since she had a sincere attitude and knew it was her first time acting, Alan let it slide. He said, “Alright, let’s do another take.”
The clapperboard guy stepped up again and announced. “Silent Seal Scene one! Take two! Action!”
Milly closed her eyes, getting back into character, and tears welled up effortlessly. Instantly, she became the pictune of sorrow as she questioned, “Hubert, who is she?”
Hubert hurriedly explained, “Giselle, it’s not what you think. We’re just friends.”
“Cut”
Alan was so mad that he threw his script onto the table and barked, “Stephanie, what’s going on? Why aren’t you saying your lines?”
Stephanie endured it in silence.
“Cut! Stephanie, your emotions are off?”
“Cut! Stephanie, did you even watch your positioning? You’re blocking the camera. Who are we shooting?”
“Cutl
Six or seven takes in a row, all stopped because of Stephanie. Left alone by the director, even the crews started to get impatient.
Although Neal was annoyed, he suppressed his temper because he remembered Stepanie as the Burnetts princess. No matter how irritated he was, he had to keep his temper in check. “Stephanie, just focus on delivering your lines with urgency,” he said gently.
Stephanie looked down in desperation and replied, “I understand, Neal.”
After so many takes, she felt her face burning with embarrassment.
When she looked at Milly, she saw a trace of mockery on her face.
Why? What give this b*tch the right to look at me like that?
Clenching her teeth, a hint of malice flashed in Stephanie’s eyes.
Suddenly, Stephanie’s peripheral vision caught sight of a figure. Immediately, her expression shifted to one of pitiful vulnerability.
She grabbed Milly’s hand as she was about to turn away and said, “Milly, please don’t be mad at me!”
