Is this the manifestation of true talent?
Even though Jason was surprised and envious, he refrained from complimenting Arielle due to his ego. Hence, he
simply commented, “I’m glad you’re not holding me back. Keep it up.”
With that, he continued revising his lines for the next scene.
The second scene involved two neighbors being exposed to the virus. Arielle and Jason were to enter in the later
part of the scene.
In the meantime, Arielle received an email from Vinson informing her that he had returned to the country.
On top of that, he shared with her his plan to lure their enemy out.

Her hesitation was due to the fact that Vinson’s plan required her to put up an act, and she wasn’t sure if she was
up to it.
I might as well take the opportunity to practice since I’m already acting in this movie.

Soon, the filming for the second scene started.
In that scene, Arielle was to hurry over and check on her neighbor who had collapsed. After that, she was to run at
the monster who had caught the virus.
Given how difficult it was to portray a sense of resolute selflessness, Sam was prepared to do a few takes for the
scene. In fact, he even got Arielle to practice her lines first so that she could conserve her energy. Or else, the
multiple retakes would likely drain her stamina due to all the running that was involved.
Unexpectedly, the moment the camera started rolling, Arielle displayed the emotions that Sam had expected of her
flawlessly. Instead, it was Jason who acted stiffly as he could not control his facial expression.
“Cut!”
Sam frowned as he called Jason over to the monitor.
“Take a look at it yourself. You’re nothing but a bunch of nerves in that scene. At this point in time, you and Arielle
are unaware of the existence of the virus. Instead, you assume there was a robbery. Consequently, you should
express anxiousness and not horror. Do you understand?”
After taking a look at Arielle on the monitor and then himself, Jason was filled with disbelief.
“How can she-”
How can she act better than me? I’m being outshone by her despite being a graduate of drama school with
multiple movies under my belt. Moreover, I even told her not to hold me back. Evidently, I’m the one that’s holding
us back now.
At that moment, an avalanche of emotions struck him.
Sensing Jason’s embarrassment, Sam patted him on the shoulder. “Alright now, shooting retake is pretty common.
There’s no need to take it personally. As long as you work on the points I’ve raised, you’ll be fine. Also, you can pick
up a thing or two from Arielle. Considering that she has the talent and you have the experience, both of you will

Jason could barely smile despite his attempt.
After smoking half a cigarette to relieve the stress he felt, he threw himself back into filming.
From then on, he put in more effort than he usually did. In many of the difficult scenes, he also managed to
demonstrate the required emotions to match the scenes.
At that moment, Sam was happy with Jason’s performance and felt that the latter was serious in his quest to excel
in his acting career.
As for Jason, it was a matter of his pride as a man, for he didn’t want to be outshone by the person he fancied.
After filming was completed ahead of schedule, Sam wanted to treat everyone to dinner, to which Jason naturally
agreed.
However, Arielle replied apologetically, “Mr. Sleight, I’m afraid I won’t be able to join you, as I have another
appointment in the evening. Why don’t you let me pay for dinner tonight instead? Just give me the bill later.”
Jason’s expression darkened upon hearing Arielle’s words.
