Lucija smiled lightly. Instead of denying Esme’s words, she looked at Eliza again. “You’re here so late… Have you had an appointment with someone?” Eliza nodded. “Yes, the crew will have dinner together.” “So the whole set of crew is having a dinner.” Lucija glanced at Eliza and smiled meaningfully. “Then you have to protect yourself. It will be bad if something unpleasant happens to you if you are drunk.” Eliza could clearly hear the mockery and hostility in her words. She smiled. “Miss Yates, don’t worry. I have a very good relationship with my colleagues in the crew.” “And I’ve been with Parson Media for so many years, but I’ve never heard of anyone getting into trouble during a dinner with the crew. Miss Yates must have watched too many movies, that’s why you have such an idea.” “But, the films you watched were also something which was made up by the screenwriter and the director.” “It’s better not to live in fantasy, don’t you agree? Miss fiancee.” After that, she walked into the hotel with a cold look. Looking at her back, Esme glared at her fiercely and turned her head to look at Lucija. “Miss Yates, don’t bother yourself arguing with such a woman.” Lucija looked in the direction where Eliza left, and her eyes narrowed angrily. Miss fiancee? Don’t live in fantasy? Today, Beau had just sent her a message asking her to restrain herself from living in her fantasy. Did Eliza just say that again just now? She must have done it on purpose. Was she declaring war against her?! “Miss Yates?” Seeing Lucija stand still, Esme pursed her lips and opened her mouth carefully, “We… should go in.” “Esme.” Lucija squinted slightly and turned to look at Esme’s face. “Do you think what Eliza just said is right?” Su looked at her in a daze.
There was a cold smile on Lucija’s face. “Do you also think that nothing will go wrong during the crew dinner?” Esme was stunned. After a long time, she reacted. “I get it!” “I’ll arrange it right away!” After that, Esme directly took her mobile phone and called someone at a corner. Lucija pulled the shawl on her shoulders indifferently and entered the hotel in an elegant and leisurely manner. Sometimes, one did not have to take action themsleves to hurt the others.
When Eliza arrived at the dinner room, everyone was already there. Roseane was drinking among the crowd., “Come on, I’m in a good mood today. Let’s drink!” In the middle of the crowd, Roseane was
holding a glass of wine with a big smile on her face. “By the way, I am the best actress. You can’t take pictures of me drinking and spread them out. Do you hear me?” “If the photos of me being drunk are on the trending search tomorrow, I’ll investigate thoroughly!” After that, she laughed out loud again. “Come on, let’s drink!” As soon as Eliza entered the room, she saw Roseane pouring herself a glass of alcohol. She frowned slightly, walked over, and took the glass from Roseane’s hand. “How much did you drink?” “Not too much!” Roseane smiled and pointed a finger at Eliza. “It’s just three bottles!” Three bottles… Eliza looked at the percentage written on the empty bottle in front of Roseane. “Stop drinking.” The chief director leaned in. “Eliza, don’t ruin the mood.” “Roseane said that she would take a break after the wrap- up, so she’s happy to drink a few more glasses.” “Why did you stop me?” Eliza looked coldly at the director. “Do you really think she’s happy?” As soon as she entered the door, she could tell that Roseane was forcing a smile. Although she was smiling, Eliza could see the sadness and bitterness in her eyes clearly Perhaps Roseane was too good at acting. The chief director nodded and said, “Of course, she’s just happy.” After that, he looked at the person next to him for no reason. “Do you think that Roseane is unhappy?” “Of course she’s happy!” “That’s right!” Roseane pushed Eliza away. “Don’t stop me!” “Let me drink!” After that, she directly picked up the bottle and began to pour it into her mouth. Eliza looked at her and felt an inexplicable heartache. In fact, she was not very close to Roseane. The only connection between them was that Matthew had asked Roseane to take care of her. They weren’t even friends, so Eliza didn’t know what exactly happened to Roseane. But Roseane was, after all, the actress she admired the most. Seeing her like this, she felt sad. Thinking of this, she took the wine from Roseane’s hand and sent a message to Matthew. Roseane had a good relationship with Matthew, so Matthew must know what had happened! “Matthew, Roseane is drinking. Do you know what’s going on?” The message was sent and soon, she received Matthew’s reply. “I don’t know. It has nothing to do with me.” “But isn’t she your friend? I am not close to her and couldn’t cross the border to ask her, so I asked you.” “Don’t care about her if you don’t know her well. Let her be!” The contents of his messages made Eliza frown deeply. She vaguely felt that the reason why Roseane was in a bad mood was related to Matthew.
Before she could send another message to Matthew, Roseane had already opened another bottle for herself. Eliza had no time to reply to Matthew. She rushed over to grab the wine from Roseane and said,
“Stop drinking!” “I want to drink!” Roseane curled her lips. “Who are you to me? Mind my own business!” After that, she turned to look at the director. “She is so annoying!”
“Get her out!”
The chief director was in a bit of a dilemma. After all, Eliza’s status was not simple. But he couldn’t afford to offend Roseane. “Tell her to get lost!” Roseane leaned back in the chair and began to act shamelessly. “If she doesn’t want to leave, I will leave!” “If I leave, I’ll not work with anyone in the future!”
The chief director pressed his lips together. There was nothing he could do. He couldn’t lose the opportunity to work with a big star like Roseane for Eliza, the newbie. “Eliza.” The chief director took a deep breath. “I don’t know what happened to Roseane either… She suggested having the wrap party with you in the afternoon, but…” “Or, you’d better go back first.” Eliza frowned and looked up at Roseane. Just as Roseane raised her head, the two women looked at each other. Roseane sneered. “I don’t want to see anyone related to the Valentine family. Get out!” The chief director looked awkward. “Eliza…” “I will go.” Eliza took a deep breath and looked up at the director seriously. “Take good care of her.” “That wine comes with very high alcohol content. It’s harmful to the body if she drinks too much.” The chief director quickly nodded. “I will, I will!” Eliza sighed and left. When she walked out, she saw Esme standing at the corner at the end of the corridor, talking to a few men. She could not hear clearly as they were far away and she was not interested. She took a deep breath and went straight into the elevator to go downstairs.
“Remember, it’s in the private room of the crew.” At the corridor, Esme stuffed the money into the hands of the two men. “That woman is the lead actress and the most beautiful woman in that room. Do you remember?” The two men nodded. “Don’t worry!” Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
After that, they turned and went to the room. Esme stood where she was, staring coldly at the backs of the two men. There were so many people in the crew. It was too easy for them to blend in. ‘Eliza, since you don’t believe that there could be an accident, today I will let you have a taste of what an accident feels like!’
