Chapter 712 Chloe had shot that scene eleven times this morning, yet she was completely overwhelmed by Lloyd
Holder’s acting skill and could do nothing at all.
It was because of that did the director think that she was stiff as a log today. Yet, Lloyd did not think that it was his
problem and instead asked her to take a break. The director could see the bitterness in Chloe’s eyes, but he also
knew very well that Chloe was being outperformed by Lloyd. If there was just too much difference in the
performance between the two actors, then the scene looking stilted was inevitable. The weaker party would be
carried along and lose their rhythm and ability to perform, not unlike a string puppet, as they fall under their
opposing party’s control.
This was also why so many were trapped in their role after acting with Lloyd, with no way to further advance their

They could not walk out of that trance they had been led into, as their performance was hinged upon the details
Lloyd had set for the scene. Even if they were to act in another show, their movements and thoughts were forever
locked onto that character they had played against Lloyd. That was why Lloyd Holder was called the Showbiz
Assassin! He would silently murder those actors’ performance levels and acting talents, leaving the actors at a loss
when they moved out of his play. Thinking of this, the director sighed deeply.
There were really very few people that were unaffected after performing with Lloyd. When he starred in Breaking
Blue at sixteen, the star actress Miley Rogers, who performed opposite him, had said that the boy’s ability was
terrifying, and even she found it difficult to move out of the spot he had created for her.
Sure enough, Miley no longer performed well in any other role in the past six years, even when she got a
blockbuster script. Gradually, she too disappeared and no longer appeared in showbiz. ‘And Chloe here was Miley’s
daughter. What a cycle. Is this mother-daughter pair going to have their careers ruined by Lloyd?’ After pondering
for a bit, no matter how dissatisfied he was, the director could only say,” We’ll call it a day today. Chloe, go and
study the script.”
Chloe’s appearance in this show was arranged by Miley, and if he allowed her to perish in Lloyd’s hands, Miley
would not let him off easy.
After getting Nachelle’s approval, he nodded respectfully at Chloe. “You can go and rest. I’ll need to go get ready
for the next scene.” He did not wait for Chloe to react before smiling at the set crew and thanking them as he left.
Chloe was stunned for a good while before complaining to her manager, “Damn that guy. He keeps wanting to find
trouble every time he sees me. He’s just a pretty face, so what is he
showing off for?”.
As she said that, she irritably walked out of the set, got in the car, and left. Without anyone realizing, inside a low-

Seated opposite facing him, a woman looked at him with interest. She had a cigarette in her mouth, the puffs of
smoke from it covering her face.
After letting out a dramatic sigh, she said, “Lloyd, you’ve pissed off an actress again? You’re not in form lately. Who
can make you so out of sorts?”
The person speaking was his manager, Anna. Lloyd’s hands that were rubbing the photo paused. “She’s a very
important person to me.” As she had a cigarette in her mouth, Anna’s words were a bit mumbled. “Who’s that
person? Is she the young lady you met at the banquet the other day?”
She had gone to the banquet that day, but she only saw the side of Nicole’s face. Lloyd’s hand paused suddenly as
his brilliant eyes gradually trembled. The light in his eyes was beamed straight onto the photo before him.
