Chapter 1687
'Investor? When did this guy become an investor in this drama? He didn't even tell me! Besides, didn't I ask him not
to come? Look at him now! Walking in like he owns this place! He's even inspecting our progress here! What the
heck is going on?!' she thought.
Nachelle could only smile and bear with Jared's attitude. "Of course. As an investor, it's only natural for you to want
to know what's going on."
It was nothing out of the ordinary for the production crew, so Nachelle just continued on with her work calmly.
But when she was about to turn to Lloyd, Jared said, "Mr. Lloyd is the best actor alive. Why would he need to do a
second take?"
Nachelle's and Lloyd's faces soured the instant Jared said that. Nicole was taken aback as she came to a realization

second take.
Lloyd became awkward as Jared had seen through his intentions.
If he insisted for a second take, people would definitely start to doubt his acting skills. "That was a good take, but I
just wanted another take just to be safe."
Nachelle wanted to chime in as well, but Jared immediately said, "I don't think that's necessary. As the best actor
alive, you can definitely complete that scene in one take."
Though Jared sounded as though he believed in Lloyd's skills, he was actually being sarcastic. And true enough,
Lloyd would seem like a failure if he could not do it.
Lloyd could not help but grit his teeth as he looked at Jared.' This bastard is obviously afraid that I'll move in on
Nicole!'
But he could only wave this off and through gritted teeth, he said, "Since the investor is happy with this shot, there's
no need for a second take. Let’s move on to the next scene."
Then, Lloyd turned around and left.
Nicole watched as Lloyd left while the staff went on to prepare for the next scene. She then looked at Jared in
defeat.
'Is this guy just here to cause trouble?' she thought.
But Jared just looked at Nicole and smiled silently.
Soon, the next scene began. Lloyd walked up again, and much to Jared's chagrin, it was a scene where the male
lead hugged the female lead from the back.
Jared was on the verge of blowing his top when he heard about the details of the scene.
He was imagining Lloyd hugging Nicole from the back.' That's something only I can do!'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven though it was just an act, Jared could still not tolerate someone doing that with Nicole.
Unable to help himself, he stated, "I think this scene is unnecessary. They hugged just now. We should just carry on
with the plot."
The screenwriter looked at Nachelle with an awkward expression on his face.
But Nachelle just looked at Jared, intrigued.
Though he was an investor, he was too young to be talking here, and so, Nachelle argued, "Mr. Johnston, you're
unfamiliar with this. This scene is to strengthen the relationship between the male and female leads..."
"Regardless of the reason..." Jared turned to Nachelle with a determined look on his face. "My woman can't be
hugged by just anyone."
He did not even bother to hide it, and his words stunned everyone.
Jared was not worried about people seeing his jealousy at all. He even had the temerity claim that Nicole was his
woman in public, which was insane.
Chloe was burning with hatred in a corner, for Nicole had already gotten the limelight, and yet, she could still make
Jared and Lloyd fight for her. 'She's hogging all of the attention! What a b*tch!'
