NovelEnglishWhen Josh Batton heard that the other person had hung up coldly, he let out a long, helpless sigh. After that, Josh looked for Director Corbet's number on his phonebook and dialed it... After a long while, Director Corbet finally picked up. "What else do you have to say?" he asked reluctantly.
"I'm truly sorry. I'll buy you a meal to compensate you. Is that alright with you? I'll work overtfor the filming that I've fallen behind on," Josh apologized to the director earnestly. Josh's attitude was incomparably earnest. He had a gentle look in his eyes.
Director Corbet's full nwas Gustav Corbet.
The television that made Josh famous was the work of Gustav.
Back when Josh acted in his first television , he performed poorly in many aspects due to his lack of experience.
However, Director Corbet did not get mad at him, but he even patiently guided Josh.
In fact, Director Corbet even personally went to Josh's room after work to practice acting with him.
Sometimes, even when it was already very late after work, Director Corbet still insisted on doing them. Josh's success in his first-ever television was inseparable from Director Corbet's guidance. Josh always remembered Director Corbet's favor, and he never dared to forget it.

What happened today was indeed Josh's fault.
Two days ago, Josh had promised to help Director Corbet by making a guest appearance as one of the cast members in his new . S~earch the (Find)website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
It was a major scene that involved explosions, and it was filmed on Alphen Hill in Country Y.
Director Corbet knew Josh was a busy man, and he told Josh to set his own time.
During the daytime, Josh happened to have the entire day off. Hence, he gave Director Corbet a call.
After setting everything up, Josh flew over to Country Y with his assistant, Annabeth Cates.
Once he arrived at the film crew's workplace, he started getting his makeup done for the filming. Meanwhile, the film crew had already prepared everything. They were only waiting for him to arrive and start shooting.
In the end, before the shooting started, Josh asked for his phone from his assistant.
At first, he wanted to have a look at WeChat.
However, he ended up reading about Xyla Quest's encounter with the terrorist attack.
Hence, he ignored everything else and bought the earliest flight back to Country Z. He returned to Country Z directly.
In fact, Josh didn't even have tto explain to Director Corbet.
He merely told Annabeth that he had something urgent to attend to, and that he needed to return to the country. He told Annabeth to take care of everything.
Back then, when Josh saw the news, his mind went crazy. He couldn't act normal at all, and he couldn't care about anybody or anything else.
All Josh wanted to do was to quickly get to Xyla and see if she had been injured.
At the time, Josh didn't estimate how significant a loss he would cause for the film crew by leaving. All he could think about was Xyla...
The cost of labor, the cost of renting the venue, and renting various props all cost smoney.

After Josh returned to the country, Annabeth called to tell him that it started raining on Alphen Hill in country Y about an hour after he'd left...
All the explosives that the film crew buried in the ground had becwet from the rain, and they couldn't be used anymore. The next tthey filmed, they'd have to buy new ones. These losses were all caused by Josh. Now that Josh calculated it, the film crew would've at least made a loss of up to 80,000 dollars because of his departure.
Hence, it was not surprising for Director Corbet to get mad.
Josh deserved it. Regardless of how Director Corbet yelled at him, Josh would bear with it.
"Let's talk tomorrow," Director Corbet said. He sounded slightly calmer.
Sensing all of this, Josh immediately smiled satisfactorily. "I'll pick you up personally tomorrow...ll make a reservation at your favorite Japanese restaurant..." "I haven't said yes to you..." Director Corbet's tone sounded even softer.
"It's been decided... I was wrong, Director Corbet..." Josh said.
