Her Secret Mate
Chapter 55 Dinner Party

Fiona hadn't slept for the whole night, because she was very excited that Jeremy would arrive tomorrow morning.

At the thought of meeting him tomorrow, her heartbeat couldn't slow down. She despised herself for behaving so naive.

The next morning, she got up and simply cleaned her face. She saw the dark circles under her eyes in the mirror. Fortunately, she acted as a stand-in, otherwise she would have been in an extremely terrible situation after being photographed.

Thinking of the scene that she would have to act in water today, Fiona sighed and only wanted to pass it at one time.

When she arrived at the film set, she took the initiative to walk in front of Nancy and said with a smile, "Hey, sister Nancy."

Nancy raised her head and gave her a snort. Her voice was so deep that no one could tell what she was thinking about. She turned her head and didn't look at Fiona anymore.

She held the chair tight. 'She call me sister. Does that mean I'm very old? Is she trying to take the place of me and occupy my place?

Definitely not!'

Monica was angry too and said sarcastically, "Not everyone is allowed to call Nancy sister. You are just a stand-in. Do you understand the rules?"

With her head down, Fiona didn't answer her. What she wanted to do was just to talk about the scene with Nancy, so that they could pass it at one time. Although the weather was getting warm, it was still cold when she fell into the water.

'It's not easy to work for a super star, and even greeting her respectfully is wrong.' Fiona thought.

Fiona swore to herself that after she became a scriptwriter, she would definitely give these stars a hard time and let them know who their boss was.

She didn't say anything more, and went to prepare for the play on her own.

Director Wang clapped his hands, "Let's start!"

Both Fiona and Nancy had changed into a court costume. It was a show in which Nancy acted as the empress dancing for the emperor in the outdoor pool. She seemed to have an intimate relationship with the emperor, but in the middle of their journey, they met assassins. The empress fell into the water and the Emperor saved her at the risk of his life.

Every single word of this scene had engraved in her mind. Fiona took a deep breath and encouraged herself.

When she fell into the water, the director suddenly asked to stop filming.

Inexplicably, didn't she perform well just now?

Director Wang came over patiently and pointed at the script, "Nancy, yesterday's play was almost successfully finished. Yesterday's expression was very good, but there is something wrong in today's acting." The expression in her eyes was too vulgar and not noble as an empress.

Casting a glance at the script, Nancy started to quarrel with the director, "Director, please take a careful look. This scene should be acted in the same way as mine..."

Director Wang was very serious, and Nancy spared no effort to persuade him. They quarreled.

Even though director Wang was very strict with those stars who didn't know how to act, he reluctantly came up with an idea when he thought of the effects of the big star Nancy and said, "All right. I'll direct it according to your instruction this time. If the shooting works well, just do as you said."

A mischievous smile appeared on her face. That was exactly what she was waiting for.

She wanted Fiona to know who was a superstar after falling into the water several times.

After falling into the water again and again, Fiona was surprised by Nancy who was supposed to be the famous actress with rare popular acting skills, but her acting performance was so bad.

She almost doubted the praise on the Internet about her acting skills. She was wet all over. She kept sneezing, and if she fell into water again, it was likely that she would catch a cold.

Director Wang said apologetically, "Fiona, go wipe yourself first. I need to discuss with Nancy."

After hearing this, Fiona went there obediently.

Director Wang, after all, had been working as a director for many years, and he understood this. He said directly to Nancy, "Miss Nancy, are you not satisfied with my play or the stand-in?" Monica spoke on the behalf of Nancy, "There are several famous films waiting for Nancy, but she chose you, director Wang. Of course we want to finish it as soon as possible, but the stand-in is always wrong and unable to perform the effect she wants."

Director Wang was speechless. It was all Fiona's fault? Didn't they realize that actually it was their fault? How could they just blame an innocent person?

Where there are women, there is a war. Director Wang said directly: "Let's finish this play first. If you are not satisfied with Fiona, I will filter a stand-in tonight."

He liked Fiona, but he had to consider the investor of the play. The longer the day the play lasted, the more money it would spend. Even director Wang couldn't take the responsibility.

Nancy was stunned and opposed, "Director Wang, I didn't mean that."

What the hell did she mean?

Director Wang was so angry, but he had to control himself.

"I think Fiona is talented. We should give her another chance."

"That's good." Director Wang knew that he had a good eye for a person.

Now that they started shooting again, this time, Nancy's acting skills were much better. However, when she tried to cooperate with the stand-in, a huge mistake had occurred. Although it was all blamed on Fiona, those who had a little knowledge of acting knew who would take the blame.

Nancy had her own plans. She couldn't let her leave without the torture that she wanted her to endure.

Today, Fiona had been drowned for several times. The only thing she needed her to do was to let her drown for two more times. After all, she had to be hoisted up tomorrow. Monica had already made a call to arrange everything well to make her never appear in the crew for a lifetime.

She sighed and said, "Let's go on."

When Jeremy came to the crew, he quietly walked towards director Wang with a mask on his face. Director Wang noticed him first and wanted to stop shooting the movie. But after he saw Jeremy's gesture, he had no choice but to continue.

The moment they saw that Fiona fell into the water, waves spread across the quiet water.

Would she feel pain?

Jack whispered in his ear to remind him, "Mr. Jeremy, it's normal. Director Wang's shooting has always been very strict, or the audience won't be so satisfied with his films every time."

What he meant was to make Jeremy calm down. He didn't want him to withdraw his investment to destroy the cast.

It was known to all that Jeremy was representing the Fu family to invest in this play. If he was unhappy and upset to ruin the play, that would be a disaster.

"I know."

Jeremy answered in a low voice, pretending not to care.

As soon as the shooting was over, a crowd of people rushed over to Nancy, asking her about her condition. As for Fiona, she could only wipe the water by herself silently. At this moment, the whole crew was simmering.

Director Wang said to all the actors and actresses present excitedly, "A mystery person has come to make a guest appearance in these days. She is here."

Almost all the actors and actresses in the hall looked at the people coming in at the same time, and Fiona was no exception. She saw Rose walking towards them elegantly.

"Hi, Rose!"

Nancy trotted over and hugged her tightly, showing very intimate, "I was very curious about who would come. You didn't tell me that it's you who will make a guest appearance in this play. Tell me, do you do this for me? We are good friends. I really appreciate your help. "

Rose just smiled without saying a word.

"Well, not for me, right?" Nancy whispered

"Oh, my God! I haven't seen you for a long time. How about having dinner together tonight?" Nancy deliberately kept everyone guessing, so that everyone would think that she came for Jeremy. Director Wang cut in, "Here comes boss Jeremy. It's his treat tonight."

With an ambiguous look on her face, Nancy looked at Rose, feeling anxious and angry, "I thought you came here for me. However you came for Jeremy. I heard that you spent a night with Mr. Jeremy. Tell me, is it true?"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
