Deadly Doting Marriage Novel - Chapter 128

At the director’s command, all the crew members returned to reality.

The director turned to look at Nancy. “Hey! Nancy, come over here!”

Nancy hurriedly ran over. She stood in front of the director, trembling. “Director, I’ve already prepared for this scene. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely fall very realistically. My arm will definitely get scratched according to the script! And I won’t show my face!”

“Oh right, my name is Nancy…”

Before she could finish, the director frowned impatiently and said. “Alright, Alright! If you know how to fall, then go ahead! If you dare to show your face, then you will reshoot! You would be the one in pain, so you’d better not play any tricks on me!”

Nancy forced a smile and nodded. “Okay.”

After saying that, she turned around and was about to go to the female lead’s side, but she stopped and turned around to look at the director.

“Director, my name is Nancy. If you have any suitable scenes, you can look for me. ”

“I’m fine with any role, big or small. I’m not picky!”

Over the years, Nancy had been subjected to too many cold stares, and had gotten used to introducing herself to every director. She only looked forward to a single chance.

Before the director could say a word, Nancy ran away in a hurry and went to the side of the heroine, Ivy Conner.

Ivy, the popular movie star who plays the female lead, sneered disdainfully. She turned to the director and said, “Mr. Obrien, think a simple fall would not be enough. How about she falls and rolls into the pool? Otherwise, how could she show how miserable the female lead was? Anyway, that’s what I think!”

The director was stunned for a moment and looked at the pool behind her.

After thinking for a few seconds, the director, Alec Obrien, smiled obsequiously. “Okay, okay, okay! Then I’ll listen to your advice. After she accidentally hurt herself, she will fall into the pool!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at Nancy. The smile on his face disappeared in a second and turned into a fierce look.

“Did you hear what I just said? You’d better go through it in one go, so you don’t waste our time!”

“Remember what I said. Don’t show your face! You’re just a substitute. You don’t have the right to show your face!”

Nancy gulped and looked at the pool not far away. She could feel the bone-chilling cold before even entering the pool.

It was already early winter, so cold that her breath would become misty.

If she jumped in, she would probably have a fever!

However, the director did not give her a chance to think and directly shouted, “Cut.’

Following that, a few extras went on set. According to the plot, one of the men accidentally touched her. Nancy took the opportunity to fall and immediately rolled into the pool.

“Cut!”

A familiar sound was heard, and the scene was temporarily over.

Cold!

It was so cold that Nancy’s teeth were chattering!

However, everyone went to the director’s side to watch the filming.

Nancy slowly walked out of the pool by herself. However, she had just stepped into the pool when she heard Ivy’s voice.

“No, this fall isn’t pretty at all. At least it has a little beauty to it. Let’s do it again, shall we?” Alec nodded with a smile. He tilted his head and looked at Nancy. “Hey! Nancy, do it again!”

Nancy replied in a trembling voice, “Okay.”

Then, Nancy changed into the exact same outfit and redid the scene.

She hurt her arm again and fell into the pool.

When she came out of the pool, her whole body was so cold that she could not feel anything.

However, she heard Icy’s voice immediately after. “It’s still not good! Look at the way she fell. You would be able to see the marks on her wrist, and there was even a slight scratch! It’ll be exposed! Let’s do it again!”

The director continued to echo, “Let’s do it again!”

So, Nancy did another round of shooting, but it still was not good enough.

The surrounding staff could not bear to watch any longer, but they did not dare to say anything either.

More than a dozen scenes were shot back and forth throughout the entire morning, but none were satisfactory.

Ivy looked at Nancy’s clothes, which looked like they were about to freeze, and a crafty glint flashed across her eyes.

‘Do you still want the director to remember you? Dream on!’

‘I’m the female lead of this drama. What right do you have as a stand-in to play the role?’

Just as he was thinking about it, the director’s assistant suddenly ran over. “Mr. Obrien, Mr. Smith is here!”

The director was so frightened that he nearly fell off his chair upon hearing this. He hurriedly stood up and ran off.

He bowed and smiled obsequiously.

“Mr. Smith, what brings you here?”

The Smith family funded this drama, so he could not afford to offend Erwin!

This was the real benefactor, and they had to support him!

Erwin looked around, and his gaze fell on Nancy. He gestured with his chin and asked, “What happened?”

The director followed his gaze and hurriedly explained, “She was the female lead’s stand-in. There was a scene in the morning where she needed a stand-in and she had to redo the shot several times.”

Erwin frowned and said, “She needed a stand-in to fall into the water. You found such a female lead for a movie funded by the Smith family?”

“Do you think the Smith family is easy to fool?”

The director waved his hands and said, “No, no, no! How would I dare? It’s just that the weather is cold now, and the female lead’s body is weak. That’s why I…”

“Weak?”

Erwin raised his voice slightly and turned to look at Ivy, who was standing beside the camera. He sneered.

“She looks very strong to me!”

“Why do you need a stand-in for everything? Replace her!”

“In the future, if you use another one of these unprofessional actors, the Smith family will withdraw their investment!”

Everyone had different expressions when they heard that.

Ivy was so angry that her face turned red. She stomped her foot fiercely and turned around to leave.

Alec naturally did not dare to say anything and could only nod in agreement.

After all, he did not dare to offend the third young master of the Smith family!

Just as the director was deep in thought, Erwin walked towards Nancy.

Nancy was so cold that her entire body was trembling. Even her lips were turning purple from the cold.

Looking at Erwin walking towards her, she felt an inexplicable urge to avoid him.

At the very least… at the very least, she did not want him to see her in such a sorry state!

However, Erwin stopped in front of her and immediately took off his coat to drape it over her shoulders.

In an instant, a wave of warmth swept over her, bringing with it a faint smell of tobacco.

Nancy was stunned. She stared at Erwin without blinking.

This was the first time she had seen him up close.

He was well-defined, and his jawline was almost perfect. Coupled with his pair of dark eyes, he looked a little cold.

A deep voice rang out the next second, “Go back and take a hot bath.” With that, he turned around and left.

Everyone looked at Nancy, their eyes filled with surprise and envy.

Nancy held onto her coat tightly as she watched Erwin leave…

She knew very clearly that her heart was truly moved from that day onwards!

She had fallen in love with Erwin!

After returning home, Nancy hung up her coat until the smell of tobacco had disappeared. Only then did she put it away in her wardrobe like a precious treasure. .
