Accidental love

Chapter 417 To have self-knowledge.

When Layton heard the private discussion from the studio staff, the idea of letting Mollie replace Anna as the heroine came up again. Master Ocean was respected, and he hated Anna very much. Could he take advantage of this and push the boat forward?

He found an opportunity to ask Chester Sharp individually, "Director Chester, does Anna put down the heroine's play and become others assistant? Will it affect the crew's progress?"

“Her scenes will be shot at night.”

"But this will drag down the actors who are acting against her. I have several scenes with her after two days. Would you like me to wait for her until midnight every day?" Layton frowned slightly, showing reluctance.

"Then what do you mean?" Chester Sharp smelled a hint of conspiracy. Perhaps Layton had not given up the idea of changing Anna.

"I don't mean anything else. I only think that you, as a director, should focus on the overall situation. You can't always make an exception for an actor.”

After speaking, Layton turned and left. Chester Sharp looked at his back, and his eyes gradually sank.

Anna didn’t ask her assistant Rosa to report to Jack that she went to be an assistant of Master Ocean. But Jack knew this news from others because he was always concerned about the information of the crew. He didn’t blame Anna for not telling him. He only felt that their master did terribly this time!

He would keep a note of how much hardship this old guy made his wife suffer. And he would get it back with profits sooner or later!

But he also thought that it was an opportunity to let the master know Anna more. He only asked Rosa to write down everything the master asked Anna to do. And Rosa must record them clearly!

...

Layton had been thinking about how to take advantage of Master Ocean’s hatred of Anna to get her out of the crew.

That night, Layton and Anna played against each other again. Maybe Anna always listened to Mater Ocean chatting with others. Her acting style became different while filming...

When she performed, she could capture the angle of the camera better, and she seemed to be more comfortable.

There was a scene that Layton walked by Anna and touched the gun subconsciously, but he found the gun was already in Anna’s hands. It was such a very simple shot, but Layton had NG twice!

His mind was not on the scene at all. He was thinking about how to kick Anna out of the crew!

“Layton, why are you not in the state? Take a break!” Chester Sharp shouted and continued to look back at the scene just now.

Master Jiang looked at Anna not far away, “Hum, you’re not an unteachable pupil since you realize it quickly.”

No matter how Master Jiang bullied Anna by Master Ocean’s name and identity, his aim was to test his granddaughter-in-law. But if others wanted to bully Anna, it was impossible. This was the character of Family Jiang.

Early the next morning, Master Jiang saw that Anna’s expression was very bad. Then he slept in the room all morning, and Anna would have time to squint for a while.

In the afternoon, she followed Master Jiang to the crew to see other actors filming.

"For the play, you can't rush, and you can't read the lines. You should turn the decadence into magic and use gestures and facial expressions to fill the lines. Then you will not become a wood that can only read lines." Master Jiang chatted with others, but these words were especially spoken to Anna.

Anna listened and kept it in her heart. She also carefully noted down what she needed to improve.

Layton just passed by them. After seeing Master Ocean and Anna, he seemed to make up his mind. Then he whispered to the assistant and left in a hurry.

Layton’s assistant stopped Master Jiang when Anna was preparing to shoot the evening scene. He invited Master Jiang to meet Layton in the restaurant.

Master Jiang turned around and looked at the direction where Anna left, "Okay, lead the way."

Ten minutes later, Master Jiang walked into the private room of the hotel restaurant. Layton had waited for him.

"What's the matter?" Master Jiang said straightforwardly.

"Master Ocean, I hear that you are not satisfied with Anna being the heroine. In fact, I think the same as you. I want Mollie to be the heroine, so... Please think of a way to change Anna. For remuneration, I will never let you be in vain." Layton observed them for two days. He thought Master Ocean would agree to his request since Master Ocean hated Anna so much.

But…

Master Jiang stared at him for a few seconds before asking, "Do you think I hate Anna so much?"

"Isn't it? Otherwise, why do you target her among so many actors?"

"It's really weird. Can you realize who I hate and target? Besides, you want Mollie to be the heroine instead of Anna. Do you think Mollie’s acting skills are better than Anna?" Master Jiang became severe in an instant. He didn’t agree others to bully his granddaughter-in-law.

Layton was a little embarrassed. When he wanted to continue to persuade him, Master Jiang said a word that made him feel ashamed.

"The last time, Anna didn't hold you accountable at the scene of the car accident. How could you be so brazen!"

Layton did not expect that Master Jiang knew about it. Indeed, he and Mollie could stay on the crew and even continue to stay in the show business circle, because Anna did not tell the truth. He had forgotten the thrill of that day.

“I…”

"Well, keep your eyes open to see that why I let Anna be my assistant, and why I specifically guide her in acting. Because apart from her, you are not worthy." Master Jiang stood up and said to Layton unceremoniously, "People should have self-knowledge and self-love. If you have a wrong mind, you will be cleaned up by God sooner or later."

After speaking, Master Jiang got up to leave.

Layton also became annoyed and yelled, "You’re just an investor. Do you think that you’re really great?"

"Yes, I'm just an investor. But if without me, will you have a movie to film?" Master Jiang directly said, "Before doing anything, please measure your own abilities. Anna let you go once, and then you need to be grateful. Otherwise, you will be looking for a dead end."

This time, Master Jiang left with a cold face, leaving Layton trembling in the private room.

This old guy was even more annoying than Anna. Who was he? This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Layton thought about it for a long time in the private room. But he still felt angry. He called his assistant to arrange something...

That night, the news that Anna was forced to have dinner with investors spread. Many media reporters called Chester and the crew members overnight to ask for first-hand news.

Of course, Chester Sharp denied that there was no such thing. But some people in the crew responded with a few words about what they saw.
