Chapter 853
There was actually not much the makeup artist could do on her face.
Initially, the scene was about 18 or 19-year-old dance students performing at the New Year’s Gala. Based on the
director's request, the actors had to reflect a student's plain and elegant side. So, they all had very light makeup.
The makeup artist only gave Stella some base makeup, eye makeup, and eyebrows. However, the effects were
already surprisingly good. She did not even need to contour Stella’s face.
Even Stuart, a director who was used to seeing all kinds of beauties in the entertainment industry, was impressed.
Then, he was once again thankful for his wise decision.
'Stella is an amazing fit for the role of Georgia, who's elegant, cold, beautiful, and arrogant. Of all the actors, I'm
most satisfied with this casting,' he thought.
However, there were bound to be unhappy people when there were happy ones. For instance, Bella and Yolanda.
Yolanda was unhappy purely because of what happened just now, but Bella felt this way because of jealousy and

She could not stand Stella stealing her thunder time and time again in the show she was starring in.
While everyone was still in a daze from the visual feast Stella had brought them, another showstopper appeared
right after.
Stella heard the screams of the fans outside before she even saw the person.
She turned around and saw that Leighton had appeared. He wore a t-shirt and a suit, which was padded in the
shoulders and popular in the 1990s. Leighton was tall and had broad shoulders, but his face was small and delicate.
The suit made his shoulders look even wider, and he looked incredibly arrogant.
'In Rainee's group photos back in college, many of the boys dressed this way. When I looked at the photos, I made
fun of the clothes from that period of time for being corny. Now that I look at it, it really depends on who's wearing
the clothes for it to be corny. Not only did the clothes not look corny on him, he even made them look cultured,' she
thought.
Leighton's character was a top student. His name in the movie was Ralph. He was a history student, childhood
friends with Georgia, and also Georgia's first husband.
When Leighton saw Stella look in his direction, he subconsciously straightened his back and walked over while
pretending to be calm. Little did he know that his fans had already taken videos of him walking with unnatural arm-
leg coordination. Every single fan who shipped "Leilla" went crazy.
Leighton walked to Stella's side and stood still. Stella smiled her eyes and gave him a thumbs up.
"You look super handsome," she said in a low voice.
Leighton's ears immediately turned red.
His head was filled with the thought, 'She complimented me. She complimented me. She complimented me...'
Since everyone had arrived, the director did not dawdle around. He immediately told everyone to get to their
places.
The first scene was the highlight of the movie.
At the gala performance, Lexi fainted on stage while dancing a duet with Georgia. After that, she was sent to the
intensive care unit in a coma for 37 days. Since many of her organs were failing, she was given critical illness

The doctors could not find the cause of her illness, so they consulted experts nationwide. In the end, a pathologist
suggested that it could be " Thalium" poisoning. Then, the incident turned into an attempted murder, and an
investigation was launched.
Georgia was the initial lead dancer during the dance rehearsal. However, it was later changed to Lexi. Ever since
then, Georgia had held a grudge. Before Georgia went on stage, she overheard others talking about the change of
lead dancer. They said that it was because someone had made a report saying that there was something shady
behind her winning her previous award. The school then switched out Georgia to neutralize its impact.
Georgia thought that Lexi was the one who made the report, and a fierce conflict broke out between them before
they went on stage. After that, Lexi fainted in the middle of the performance, and Georgia became the biggest
suspect.
There was a slap scene in this scene. First, Georgia would slap Lexi, and Lexi's bestie, Lulu, would stand up for Lexi
and retaliate against Georgia.
Stuart wanted to strive for realism, so he had a discussion with Stella, Bella, and Yolanda. He asked if they were
alright about actually slapping each other in this scene instead of using malposition to fake the action.
