Chapter 771 Get Back At Her
Donald rubbed his stomach and said, “I'm a little hungry indeed. Come on, then. Show me what the food is like on
this set.”
Since Belle had personally signed Evelyn on as an artist, it went without saying that Werner Brothers Studios had to
cover the meals for Evelyn and her team. However, the food prepared for the film crew usually consisted of packed
meals, and a minor influencer like Evelyn would only get an extra chicken drumstick at most.
Meanwhile, the film's lead actors and directors would eat together at a restaurant outside. Not only did they get to
eat well, but they also had the opportunity to chat and mingle. It was also considered a way of privately currying
favor with others.
Nikita had urged Evelyn many a time to join them and eat together. However, the latter was reluctant to spend
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtseveral hundred on a meal and felt she had nothing in common with them.
As a result, Evelyn made herself stick out like a sore thumb from the first day of filming, causing the directors and
lead actors to think of her as a rookie who did not understand social conventions.
After listening to Nikita's explanation, Donald said calmly, “I still have some heavy lifting to do this evening, so I
need to have a good lunch. Let's go to that restaurant for a meal. My treat.”
“Mr. Campbell, that doesn't sound like a good idea. The director and the others—”
“What's the matter? You're an artist under my company. Are you saying you're still at the mercy of the director's
whims even when it comes to having your meals?”
Upon hearing that, she knew not to protest further.
The trio went to the restaurant and had just walked up to the entrance when they heard Xaiden cursing. “D*mn it!
That Evelyn really thinks of herself as some pure and innocent woman. She told me just now that she would not film
any revealing or intimate scenes. I've no idea what was going through Belle's mind. Why would she sign someone
like her to our crew? Isn't this just making things difficult for us?”
Malcolm Kline, who was playing the male lead, also looked displeased. Having debuted as an idol more than two
years ago, he was confident about his good looks. However, it was the first time someone had refused to film a
kissing scene with him. Is this a joke? Nowadays, reporters in the entertainment industry are willing to write about
anything to get a trending article. If they find out that a minor influencer refused to do a kissing scene with me and
write about it, how am I supposed to maintain my image as an idol?
As that thought crossed his mind, he turned to Xaiden and said, “She's just an unimportant influencer. Since she has
signed a contract, how can she refuse to film such scenes simply because she doesn't want to? When did you
become so soft-hearted?”
Xaiden gave a wry laugh. “Oh, you don't know half of it. It's stated in Evelyn's contract that we have to respect her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwishes. Otherwise, do you think I'd bother to reason with her? Nonetheless, you don't have to worry. I've arranged
to move up filming of the scene of her getting hit. If she doesn't cooperate... Hah!”
Hearing that, the others at the table exchanged knowing grins.
At that moment, Donald pushed open the door and walked in with Nikita and Evelyn.
Their sudden appearance caused Xaiden to panic a little, but he quickly regained his composure. So what if they
overheard what we were talking about? As long as we vehemently deny that we're planning to make things difficult
for Evelyn during filming later, she'll have no choice but to cooperate obediently.
Xaiden and his companions were determined to get back at Evelyn.
After taking a seat, Donald proceeded to order several hearty dishes. “Please bring us a few of your signature
dishes.”
Seeing that, Xaiden snickered and remarked, “Ms. Shabelle, my advice is not to eat too much. After all, you'll be
filming an action scene in the afternoon, and it won't do if you throw up on set.”
