Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 134 Simon’s Psychological Barrier

His question made Erin’s heart sink, so she naturally didn’t voice her wild guesses. Instead, she calmly

said, “I want to hear your explanation.”

Chandler chuckled lightly. “You’re more mature now compared to the past. I’m pleased.”

Hearing how composed he was. Erin was frustrated and silently cursed away in her heart. She held

back the urge to yell at him to hurry up

and explain.

“Right; now let me explain what happened with this photo. Two days ago, Claire called me to a private

club under the pretense of giving me a gift. By the time I arrived, she was already drunk. Her phone fell,

so she asked me to pick it up. When I picked it up, I saw her skirt. I was stunned for a few seconds but

immediately walked out of the room and got Kyle to go in. So, Kyle was the one who held her and put

her in the car. He also drove her back. And that was what happened.”

Erin’s shattered heart was instantly mended. She still had some lingering suspicions. However, since

Chandler had explained everything to her, even if she was a little mistrustful of what he’d said, she

didn’t want to show it.

“Thanks for telling me.”

He sighed, “Silly girl, you’re my woman now. You have every right to ask me about something like this.

If I found out you had any

inappropriate relationships with other men, I would question you too.”

Those words improved Erin’s mood quite a bit.

Chandler continued. “Now, it seems that Claire really set me up. She’d installed a camera in the private

room in advance, just to sow discord between you and me. This photo serves as a reminder to me as

well. This woman, Claire, is officially on my blacklist. I won’t bother

with her anymore.”

Of course, Erin was delighted about Chandler voluntarily distancing himself from a woman he used to

like in the past. There was no point

forcing such matters. The best way was for the person in question to be more mindful and take the

initiative to cut off contact.

Erin was deeply moved. “Chandler, I miss you-”

“Don’t worry, I’ll come to Fleuverton to satisfy your needs very soon. I have something to take care of

now. Bye, Erin.”

Chandler ended the call first, leaving Erin holding her phone with her face all red. She simply

expressed her longing for him, but he just had

to stir it toward those lewd matters.

“Men are perverts by nature!” Erin shouted internally.

After resolving the misunderstanding regarding the photo, Erin deleted the message from the stranger

and blocked their number. Erin speculated that the photo was likely sent by Claire. Back when she was

rumored to be involved with Matthew. Claire must have been furious, so that was why she used

Chandler as a way of getting back at Erin.

Two hours later, Roman finished shooting his scenes. With that, Donny’s work for the day was done

too. Ken trailed behind them, carrying their belongings.

After Roman finished removing his makeup and changing his clothes, he accompanied Erin back to the

hotel.

In the car on the way back, Roman told Erin that Claire would still be part of the film, but as an

additional character that was added last minute. The producer convinced the director to give her a role

for the sake of the twenty million dollars. Claire would play the role of a rat demon who was kind of like

a junior to the fox demon. Therefore, Claire and Megan would act together.

Twenty million dollars was good enough to help Claire secure a role that was way more substantial

than a mere fourth female lead. She was effectively promoted to become the second female lead.

Erin asked Roman, “Wouldn’t the author have any objections to their original work being modified?”

Turning to look at her, Roman answered, “The author has already signed a contract that clearly states

that the can be adapted. The character played by Claire is dispensable, so it doesn’t have much

impact on the movie. Therefore, the director won’t demand strict adherence to the original work.

Commercial films have a much higher tolerance than art films. The investment of twenty million will be

used up fairly quickly for CGI effects.”

Since Erin was chosen because of her acting skills, she gained some confidence.

*Two days later, you’ll start shooting officially. You’ll have scenes with different actors. There are

several veteran actors in the crew who are worth learning from,” Roman advised in his usual calm

demeanor.

“Thank you for the reminder, Roman. Since the director has given me this opportunity, I’ll cherish it and

work hard,” Erin replied earnestly.

“After you go back, you better rest early. Shooting is tiring, and every scene requires immense

concentration.”

Erin nodded. “I’ll make sure to get sufficient sleep.”

Roman then continued. “In the future, you need to pay attention. If the actors you have scenes with

don’t perform well, you’ll need to reshoot together. Likewise, if the problem lies with you, the other party

will have to reshoot the scene with you. So, you have a

collaborative relationship with other actors. Try not to burden them. The director will also prefer to have

each scene done in one take. Do

keep that in mind.”

“Okay! Understood.”

Despite feeling tired. Erin tried her best to stay attentive. Seeing that, Roman chuckled. “That’s all for

today. I’ll gradually tell you more

things when you start shooting.”

“Thank you, Roman-” Erin covered her mouth and yawned.

In the middle of the night, Erin was sound asleep in her hotel room. Little did she know that twenty

minutes later, a man would secretly sneak into her room.

In the hotel’s underground parking lot at that moment, a black jeep was parked in the far corner spot. In

the jeep, two men were engaged

in conversation.

“Luther, are you sure this is the only way?” Simon asked skeptically. He was dressed in all black,

looking like he was up to no good.
