Chapter 399

To her, the sum it cost was a mere small change, and it served to gain the crew‘s favor
Even though some were unhappy with her work attitude, they couldn‘t say much given that they had
received so many gifts from her. Stella was resting in the set when the assistant suddenly ran towards
her. “Ella, the director has called for you!” Stella stood up, slightly confused. Was it because she
performed poorly just now? Only after she had walked to Bradley did she realize the woman standing
next to him was none other than Guinevere. She clenched her fists so hard that her fingernails dug
painfully into the flesh of her palms as she tried hard to keep a straight face. The sharp pain forced her to
calm down. She turned to Bradley. “What‘s the matter?”

“Let me do the introductions. This is Guinevere Cohen. I suppose she needs no further introduction?”
Stella nodded. “Ms. Cohen, I‘ve heard so much about you.”

She thought Guinevere would pretend not to know her, but Bradley continued, “She mentioned that
you‘re the dance teacher of a child of a friend she knows. Since both of you are considered
acquaintances, I won‘t say much. You share many common scenes, so communication will be much
easier, given you know each other...”

Stella looked at Guinevere, slightly taken aback. All she saw was Guinevere smiling kindly at her,
seemingly without ill intentions.

She walked to her, her hand outstretched, “It‘s been a while.”

Guinevere blinked a couple of times at Stella, the smile on her lips never quite reaching the depths of her
eyes.

She was an actress, after all. She knew what expression to put on to make others have a good
impression of her in such situations.



Stella paused before reaching out and shaking Guinevere‘s outstretched hand. “It‘s been a while,
indeed,” she said. Guinevere released her hand and looked firmly at Stella‘s face. Despite the raging
emotions inside her, Guinevere looked calm and composed on the outside.

“Now that we‘ve gotten past the introductions, I‘m sure we‘ll work well together in our upcoming scenes,”
Bradley saw how subdued things seemed between them and didn‘t comment further. “Ella, you filmed
the scene earlier pretty well. You can begin preparing for the next scene when you‘re free.” “Sure.”

“Guinevere, are you ready?”

“Yes, I am.”

Initially, Guinevere had qualms about the scene, but upon seeing Ella, she changed her mind and said,
“Let‘s just begin.” Bradley was stunned for a while, not expecting her to be so agreeable. “Sure. I‘ll get
the crew in position.”

Guinevere was the main lead in this scene. She had many impressive fighting shots that were the
highlights for the lead female warrior. As such, preparations were made to ensure that everything was
perfect. It went without saying that Guinevere‘s acting skills were amazing, unsurprising since she was a
celebrity who had once clinched the best actress of the year award. Although she had stopped working
for a period and was slightly out of practice, her strong foundation in acting was evident.

Bradley let her pass in that scene. It wasn‘t perfect, but there weren‘t any major problems either—the
critical part would be the subsequent series of highly demanding actions. Guinevere had to wield a sword
and jump from a stone to a cliff. Perhaps because she had just given birth, her moves appeared sluggish
and laborious. Sadly, she did not succeed even after multiple takes. She looked apologetically at the
crew and said, “I‘m sorry, it‘s all because of my poor physical condition...”



If it were due to any other reason, Bradley would‘ve had quite a few things to say. However, this was
clearly because of her physical limitations, and scolding her would do nothing to help The only thing he
did was ask, “Do you need a double?”
