Bella yawned and slouched in the chair, chatting idly with Fiona, who was also yawning continuously. The entertainment industry was tough. No matter how big of a star you were, if the script required you to get up at 4 a.m., you had to get up. She had only slept past midnight last night and had to wake up before 4 a.m. Exhausting! Why bother with all this when she could have lived comfortably? Being mocked and despised by Emily, so what? She couldn't hear her anyway.She yawned widely, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes. Such a hassle! According to the script, they, a bunch of idiots, were supposed to spend the night in the mountains, and getting up early was for filming the morning camping scene. Originally just an extra, with last night's incident of falling into the water, her teammates had to show concern for her, adding a few meaningless lines.The assistant bought coffee and sandwiches, and everyone found a place to eat. Bella felt a bit less sleepy as she ate. W
Discussing the script in the dead of night, Bella couldn't help but wonder why they couldn't discuss it during the day. If it were someone else, she could use the excuse of being busy recording during the day, but with Calvin... What script could they possibly have to discuss? It's more like discussing love and romance.Nervously, she knocked on the door, wondering if tomorrow there would be gossip about their late-night script discussion. A female internet writer going to a financier's room late at night to discuss a script and leaving at dawn - it's a scandal waiting to happen! Wait... is she going to be part of this gossip?Lost in thought, the door opened, and she was startled by the sight of a half-naked man. How could he open the door like this? Barefoot, with a towel wrapped around his waist, looking like it could fall off at any moment, even revealing some sexy hair... Bella instinctively took two steps back, her face flushing red. How could this happen? Calvin looked at her,
The set was bustling as usual, with Bella flipping through the thin script pages repeatedly. Reality show scripts were just outlines, and the specifics depended on individual improvisation and the director's last-minute adjustments. Bella, lacking experience, always managed to attract the director's attention with her straightforwardness, even if it meant being scolded. So, during breaks, she used her time to figure out how to avoid getting scolded. It had to be admitted that Fiona was more talented than her; whatever Fiona said was always met with the director's approval.Fiona looked down on her, despite Bella watching so many variety shows! This kind of thing was naturally improvised as needed, based on what the audience wanted to see. Did they still need teaching? If she were the director, she'd scold herself! "I'm going to buy popsicles, you think about it some more." On a hot day like this, she should be enjoying the air conditioning indoors instead of punishing herself. Bella m
Following behind Calvin, Bella glanced back at David standing there and felt quite sorry for him. It’s rare to find someone in the entertainment industry, or even in a regular workplace, who would stand up for a colleague like that. Of course, if he was standing up for her because he had feelings for her, then… She couldn't help but smile as she quickened her pace to walk beside Calvin, tilting her head to look at his cold, frosty face, and asked with a smile, "Mr. Calvin, where are we going?"Calvin didn't respond and led her straight to the director to watch some playback. The director was currently enjoying an ice pop, and Calvin told him to take his time and rest. Bella cheerfully unwrapped her ice pop, "Mr. Calvin, aren't you having one?" Her ice pop had started to melt after a short delay, making her frown.Suddenly, without any warning, Calvin leaned in and took a bite from her ice pop."Ah!" Bella exclaimed softly, looking at the now-missing corner of her ice pop. Realizing wh
Bella noticed that the director's attitude towards her had changed. As the director's attitude shifted, so did everyone else's attitude towards her. She couldn't help but suspect that Calvin's behavior that day was an intentional hint to the director. However, it didn't make sense—if he wanted to make things easier for her, a simple instruction would suffice. Why go to such lengths? Anyway, she had a rather comfortable last two days with the production crew, so comfortable that she almost felt like a big star. The day the program wrapped up, they held a small cocktail party to reward the entire crew. Everyone enjoyed such eating and drinking events. Although it was called a small cocktail party, everything was meticulously arranged, from the venue decoration to the food and drinks. Bella and Fiona found themselves in the middle of it, marveling at how money could solve so many problems. Honestly, they had only seen such scenes on TV. In their previous company, anniversary celebratio
Calvin never knew that Bella would be so cute when she was half drunk and half awake. Her eyes were blurry and her reaction was slow. After he kissed her fiercely, she suddenly pushed him away and turned over to sit up. He was shocked. What was she going to do? Did she forget to take a shower even when she was drunk? Women are sometimes really weird. When she took a shower, everything was extinguished. How could there be passion to continue?Bella half-knelt up with some sway. Calvin propped up his body and reached out to help her but she pushed him back to the bed. He put his hand on her slender waist and was puzzled, "Bella?""Don't move!" She pouted and muttered, and then moved her body again to sit on him. Calvin was stunned for half a second, and then laughed. Did she want to do it herself? Alcohol makes cowards brave. I didn't expect that the little white rabbit could also turn into a big bad wolf with the help of alcohol. It was interesting, and he was happy to see it. Now she
After indulging in drinks and pleasure, facing reality brought a bit of awkwardness, starting with Fiona’s teasing. She didn’t say much, just lamented that the Indian love oil she had specially gifted was neglected. Bella rolled her eyes dramatically. Last night was unexpected; she was so drunk that she only wanted to get back and sleep, and as for the Indian love oil, it should be left for Fiona’s blonde, blue-eyed CEO. Fiona casually tossed the oil back into her bag, scolding Bella for not appreciating her kindness.The two bantered as they packed up, preparing to check out. The resort’s environment and facilities were nice, but only for vacationers. They had been up and down the mountains daily, hardly experiencing any of the resort’s pleasures. Now, as they were leaving, it felt like they were finally liberated, ready to return to civilization.The lobby on the first floor was crowded with most of the show’s staff, everyone bidding farewell and leaving one after another. Bella saw
LAfter coming back from the show, Bella and Fiona indulged themselves for two days before feeling revived. However, while Bella was back to full strength, Fiona seemed frazzled. The constant phone calls were a buzzkill. By noon, they decided to find a place to eat and take a break.They entered a French restaurant, and before they even sat down, Fiona's phone rang incessantly again. Bella pouted, "Even the president isn't this busy."Fiona tossed her shopping bags aside and glanced at the caller ID. With a deep sigh, she answered with a cheerful tone, "Hello, Auntie... Yes, it's me... What? Dinner? Oh... I have to work late on Saturday... Uh-huh... Okay... I got it..."Listening to Fiona sweet-talk her aunt, Bella thought Fiona could be quite the tough talker online, but offline she was a pushover, easily cajoled by her aunts and uncles. After Fiona hung up, Bella asked, "Your aunt is setting you up with another eligible bachelor?"At their age, it was all about marriage and babies. W
