82 Chapter 82: He Is Smarter Than You (1/2)
Julian saw Kylie approaching, and he hurriedly called her over to the lounge. ”Kylie, sit down here, please.”
”Director Johnson, I' m sorry for all the trouble...” Kylie apologized sincerely, looking ashamed.
When seeing her gaunt face, Julian's heart ached. ”Don't be disturbed by the mess, and the entertainment industry is not always peaceful. You are trustworthy. Your portrayal of this character is by far the best I have seen.”
”Thank you for your affirmation.” Kylie highly appreciated that Julian was willing to support her at this time.
”However, this time, public opinion is very important. You look tired. You must not have slept well last night. Would you like to go home and sleep off your mood? When this is over, you can start to work again?” Julian suggested.
Kylie quickly waved her hand. ”I'm fine, director. I have new scenes. If I stop working, it will affect me even more. When the time comes, you won't be able to say that the investor is not satisfied.”
Since she was very considerate about the situation, Julian nodded with satisfaction and said: ”OK, You can start your work. But if it gets to be too much, you must take a vacation.”
After the director left, Kylie headed to the bathroom to fix up her makeup.
She had been wearing heavy, gaunt makeup. But after such a long time, it would be sure to be looking off. But as she walked towards the washroom door, someone pulled her into the men's washroom.
”How did you become like this?” someone said, sounding worried. They tried to touch her face, but the hand was slapped away.
”Are you trying to ruin me, pulling me like this into the men's washroom?” Kylie turned and tried to leave, but she was pulled back again.
”Did I hurt you?”
”Never mind.” Kylie rubbed her arm. It was scratched, but not bleeding.
William was anxious. ”I wanted to clarify, but John stopped me. He was worried that I was being asked questions about the black girl. It would cause even more trouble if somebody found out that you're the girl in the video.”
Kylie punched him hard in the chest. ”He is smarter than you.”
With a pained look on his face, William said: ”If you hadn't agreed, I would have announced our relationship.”
Kylie glanced at him. ”Just go ahead, if you're not afraid of your uncle.”
”You...” William looked heartbroken.
Kylie simply put on her makeup in the men's washroom. And before she left, she turned to William and said: ”By the way, no matter what you see later on—don't worry about it and leave me alone, do you understand?”
”Leave you alone? Do you think that I can watch you flirting with other men without doing anything? I am the most handsome man in the crew. Please flirt with me; don't flirt and hurt others.”
”Get out of my face.”
That was the start of a really bad day.
