Chapter 28

When Eliza arrived at the studio, she noticed that the atmosphere inside the studio was terrifyingly

oppressive.

It seemed like the director had lost his temper and was now drinking tea angrily.

Roseane was sitting in the corner with a pale face while still holding on to the script tightly.

“What’s going on?”

Eliza approached Gilbert carefully and asked in a low voice.

“This scene is about the female lead’s internal monologue,”

Gilbert lowered his voice. “Roseane needs to demonstrate the character’s emotional turmoil from anger,

eureka, hopelessness, and finally to revelation.” “Since Roseane couldn’t finish filming this scene

yesterday, the director gave her a day off and asked her to get some rest. However, she still couldn’t do it

today.”

Gilbert sighed helplessly, “It’s not like this is her first day of work. Roseane has been in the industry for

many years, but for her to shift between complex emotions in such a short period of time, it’s just too

difficult for anyone.”

Eliza pursed her lips and walked towards Roseane slowly. Then, she sat down on the chair beside her.

“Is it okay if I have a look at the script?”

Roseane was already irritated to begin with. When she saw Eliza, she was even more annoyed.

In a fit of anger, she threw the script on Eliza and said scornfully, “Take it.” She couldn’t be bothered

about Eliza’s real identity anymore.

“You’re just a stunt woman, what do you know?”

Eliza pursed her lips and skimmed through the script. After familiarizing herself with the story, she asked

Gilbert for a pen and paper.

A lot of people approached Roseane to provide words of comfort, but she kicked them away without

mercy.

Finally, the director came over to give her the final ultimatum. She must complete that scene this morning

no matter what!

Despite practicing in front of the mirror numerous times, there was still something that was lacking in her

performance. She snapped and smashed two mirrors at once.

“Try this.”

When Roseane was having a complete meltdown, Eliza stopped writing and smiled. “The script only

describes details about the character’s emotional change, but it doesn’t really specify why. I combed

through the characters’ relationship with one another and rooted out the problem. The reason the female

lead feels this particular emotion is because she thought of something that is related to the other three

characters.”

She passed the paper over and said, “Hope this helps.”

Gilbert rolled his eyes at her. “Miss Lawson, stop making things worse.”

“Roseane is tired enough.”

Irritated, she took the paper and gave it a quick glance. All of a sudden, her eyes lit up and her mood

changed dramatically.

Why didn’t she think about that? Every character in the script was somehow interconnected to one

another!

Once again, she composed herself and started practicing in front of the mirror.

This time, she didn’t smash the mirrors. Half an hour later, Roseane sat in front of the camera and tried

filming the scene again.

The director loved her performance and called it a wrap.

He gave Roseane a thumbs up. “You’re impressive as always! I’m amazed by your ability to shift your

mental state that easily.”

“Thank you.”

During lunchtime, Roseane brought Eliza along to a high-end restaurant just opposite Parson Media.

She smiled and looked at Eliza. “I apologize for my attitude towards you just now.”

“You’re actually very talented in this field. You can link the storyline with character development rather

easily. Given your talents, can I know why you are still working as a stunt woman in Parson Media?”

“With your looks and talents, I’m sure you’ll have no problem surviving in the entertainment industry.”

Eliza beamed while enjoying her lunch, “I don’t have any plans to become an actress. I actually enjoy

working as a stuntwoman.”

Roseane frowned. “As far as I know, a stuntwoman’s job is dangerous and people would normally avoid

it. If you’re not doing it for money, then what’s your ultimate goal?”

“I’m sure you’ll earn more as an actress.”

Eliza grinned sheepishly. “I have a dark history that I don’t want other people to know about. If I ever do

anything that might expose my secrets to the public, I’m sure I won’t even be able to work as a stunt

woman.”

“That’s why I’m satisfied with my job for now.” Roseane didn’t expect Eliza to have a dark past.

After remaining silent for a long time, Roseane looked up at Eliza and said, “If I ever encounter similar

problems in the future, can I…” “You can always come to me for help.” Eliza added, “I’m experienced in

this field anyway.” After all, Eliza did manage to coach someone as useless as Madeleine into an

outstanding actress. For someone like her who didn’t even graduate middle school, she wouldn’t have

succeeded without Eliza’s help.

“Alright then. You can continue working as my personal stuntwoman. I will definitely give you a

handsome reward.”

Eliza nodded gratefully, “Thank you, boss!” Roseane beamed and sent a message to Matthew, “Can you

tell me what happened to Eliza in the past?”

“What did Roseane mean by that?” Matthew thought.

Looking at the message on the phone, Matthew frowned and turned to look at Beau, “Uncle.”

Beau did not look up. “Yes?”

“What kind of shady life did your wife lead in the past?” Beau stopped writing and looked up, “Huh?”

“I have to break some news to you.”

Matthew got up from the sofa and showed the phone to Beau. “I’ve asked someone to offer her a full-

time job as an actress, but she rejected it. The reason being that she has a dark past she doesn’t want

anyone to uncover.”

Beau closed the file of documents and said, “I don’t know. I‘ve only known her for several weeks.”

Matthew was speechless. “Uncle, why did you marry her when you don’t even know what kind of person

she is?” Beau flipped open another file of documents and scanned through it.

Matthew rolled his eyes and asked, “Just why did you marry her?”

“Braint likes her.”

“Demarion likes her as well.”

Beau looked up at him, “Isn’t that enough?” Matthew gaped in surprise.

“That is such a sloppy reason…”

“Uncle, we’re talking about your marriage and your happiness here. Your children shouldn’t even be

involved in this matter. Do you even love Eliza?”

“I will never fall in love with any woman.”

.

“I’m only doing it for my children.”

While he was speaking, Beau grabbed the pen and changed some of the details in the document. “I’ll

leave it to you to uncover her dark past.”

It dawned on Matthew that he had brought this upon himself.

It seemed like he had just dug his own grave.

“I shouldn’t have brought this topic up! What am I? An idiot?” Matthew blamed himself.

In the afternoon, Eliza was still analyzing the script for Roseane.

During a small break, she went to the nearby supermarket to buy some drinks.

When she returned to the set, some of the cast members working with Madeleine and Jay were

gossiping,

“Jay’s girlfriend is such a joke! She can’t even perform simple tasks of her role!”

“I can’t believe that she’s nominated as one of the potential candidates for the Golden Bull Award! How is

that even possible?”

“I have no idea how she managed to build her reputation as an actress up until now.”

Hearing their words, Eliza couldn’t help but laugh.

Madeleine had never received any form of certification in the field of acting before. Her performance in

the past all depended on Eliza’s meticulous coaching.

She didn’t expect Madeleine to be so pathetic without her guidance.

“Eliza!”

Just as she was about to leave, someone stopped her. It was Jay.

He walked towards her and pulled her aside. “I heard that you’re free today.” He stuffed a script into her

hands and said, “Go and help Madeleine, now.” D “Madeleine is not doing too well at the moment.” Eliza

glanced at the script in her hand and smiled. “Why should I help her?”
