“There’s no point saying it. I’ve prepared a contract, let’s sign it first…”
Xiner: “…”
At this time, Xiner finally realized Craig was a man of action; it was quite frightening how quick he was. Did he perhaps want to sign her a long time ago? Otherwise, why did he already have a contract and why did he carry it around with him?
“At least give me some time to look over it.”
“What’s there to look at? Your salary will be double, so sign it!” Craig directly fl*pped to the last page of the contract and handed Xiner a pen.
Xiner was quite surprised, but she still ended up signing. Actually, if she had taken the time to note the details of the contract, perhaps…she would not have signed a 30 year contract without knowing.
The impatient Craig quickly put away the contract and revealed a rare smile. He then led Xiner over to Emma.
Without looking suspicious, Emma acted like nothing happened as she played along with Craig’s act, “Xiner…because we couldn’t confirm when you’d be back, Eric got Flossie to be my assistant.”
“That…that’s OK…”
“She’s already signed on with me,” Craig proclaimed before he dragged Xiner away. As they left, Emma couldn’t help but giggle.
Life was like a movie that depended on acting…
No wonder Craig managed to become a national treasure actor.
“Don’t you think you were a bit too fierce in front of Emma? She didn’t do anything wrong…”
“She doesn’t want you, isn’t that wrong?”
“She didn’t say that she doesn’t want me. In fact, she’s already helped me enough in the past. Please don’t hold a grudge against her,” Xiner said in seriousness.
“If you don’t want me to hold a grudge against her…I will need to see how you perform.”
Xiner had absolutely no idea she was being tricked. Actually, as a cousin of Eric’s, Craig had the same unapproachable aura as him. Of course, Eric’s methods were hidden in secret whilst Craig’s was out in the open. This was because he was impatient and lazy…
His thoughts were simple. He simply felt no one was more suited to Xiner than himself.
…
It didn’t take long before ‘W.H.’ held their launch ceremony in secret. As the producer, Eric also attended. In reality, Eric had higher hopes for ‘W.H.’ than for ‘Stupid’.
This was because the disaster genre in the domestic market was still lacking. If Kaleidoscope managed to produce a masterpiece, it would be very meaningful for both him and Emma.
“Mr. Roborts, thank you so much,” Zephaniah thanked Eric wholeheartedly. “It’s not that I didn’t try to ask other people, but whenever I mentioned money…”
“My judgment has always been right,” Eric said in confidence.
“Don’t worry, I will definitely take good care of Emma…”
Zephaniah understood what Eric was worried about. After all, the incident that happened with ‘Hidden Expert’, happened right in front of his eyes. It was something he’d be haunted by for the rest of his life.
“Also, control Craig a little. Once his on set, the only person he will listen to is the director.”
“Leave it with me.”
“When the time is right, I will start promoting the film.” Timing was important, especially since someone new would become famous everyday and someone old would be forgotten at the same time.
Zephaniah was never worried about the marketing side of things. As for the way Kaleidoscope operated, they could only exceed his expectations, not disappoint.
“Let’s see how Emma performs. If ‘W.H.’ gets released during the second half of the year, she can definitely try for the best newcomer award.”
In reality, if Kaleidoscope really wanted it, they could simply ask for it. But, over the years, Kaleidoscope never once interfered with the voting process.
“Even though she’s my wife, she will need to depend on herself.”
After hearing Eric’s words, Zephaniah did not comment any further. It was clear to see how much faith Eric had in Emma. It also hinted that Emma was indeed capable.
“The first scene will be a big scene. Do you want to watch it before you leave?”
“No need, I want to leave it as a surprise for later,” Eric turned around, whispered something in Emma’s ear and left.
As soon as Eric left, Emma immediately began to feel empty inside…
But, it didn’t take long before she found a distraction. Just like Zephaniah said, the first scene was indeed big.
The village had just been infected with the virus and everyone was investigating the cause. The husband portrayed by Craig would spend all day treating patients at the hospital and then lock himself in the bathroom for 2 hours after returning home every night.
The writer wife portrayed by Emma started off with nightmares about her body deteriorating away. Then one day, she stepped into the bathroom and was met with a putrid smell as well as her husband’s back facing her weirdly.
The couple owned a pet Labrador. But, the Labrador had been chasing the husband around for the past few days, so the wife had no choice but to lock it up in a cage.
“Lately, the village hasn’t been very safe. Try your best not to leave the house.”
The wife looked at her husband’s back suspiciously and slowly approached him. Just as she was about to check what he was doing, he suddenly turned around…
The wife jumped up in fright…
Emma’s first appearance on the screen was a close-up of her frightened face…
The production crew never thought Emma would be so good at acting scared. Her face was pale like she had actually seen something terrifying…
As for everyone on set, they felt themselves sweating in suspense…
The reason why Emma played this scene so well was because she had practiced it hundreds of times at home.
Her seriousness striked up the interest of Craig!
While Emma acted with Craig, Xiner and Flossie stood to one side. Xiner glanced at Flossie and said, “Emma is a really nice person, I hope you can take good care of her.”
“Don’t worry, I will.” Flossie had a small stature with facial features that gave off the scholarly aura of a Southern American girl.
“You also need to take note of the things she dislikes!”
Flossie smiled, “To be honest Xiner, I’m quite envious of you.”
“Envious of me? Why?” Xiner was confused. “You shouldn’t be envious of me. The first half of my life was filled with suffering.”
“Actually, I would have loved to be Craig’s assistant…” Flossie said as she pointed to Craig with her chin. “But, he only wants you. You are the first assistant he’s ever had. The only one.”
“What do you mean?”
“What I mean is, I once applied to be his assistant back when he was still in a small agency, but he said that he didn’t require one. It’s almost been 10 years since that time and he indeed has not had anyone by his side until now. You have been the only one,” Flossie explained patiently.
