Even worse, the director would overlook her poor acting skills because her husband was Matthew Kings. This was not what Veronica wanted.
On the other side, Eviette was filming a scene together with Camden. When she saw Matthew, she immediately said to the director, “Miss Symons, my friend is here. Can I take a break, please?”
When Sam noticed the person who had arrived, she nodded, “Sure, you can take a break. Let’s film the scenes between Mia and Camden first.” During filming, scenes that took place in the same location were usually filmed together. Therefore, when Eviette took a break, other actors could come in and film their scenes.
After getting permission from Sam, Eviette approached Matthew. She saw him standing there in a suit, with the sunset casting an orange glow on him, making him look even more charming.
“Matthew, you actually came! When we were chatting earlier and you said you would come to visit the set, I thought you were joking.”
Standing in front of Matthew, Eviette appeared particularly gentle as she presented an innocent smile on her face.
A hint of a smile appeared on Matthew’s cold and stern face. He glanced at Thomas behind him, prompting the latter to step up. “Here you go, Evie. This is a gift from Young Master Matthew.”
It was a large bouquet of bright red roses, adorned with baby’s breath and wrapped in black packaging paper. It was even covered with a thin black veil, making the roses look even more beautiful and enchanting.
Eviette blushed like a young girl. “Thank you.” Everyone around quickly fished out their phones and started taking pictures of the two. “Aw! They look so cute together.”
“Eviette and President Kings seem close.”
“What is their relationship?” “He is Veronica Murphy’s ex-husband, but now he is giving flowers to another woman. If I were Veronica, I would be so embarrassed.”
As soon as someone in the crowd said that, Matthew shot them a sharp gaze. Instantly, he frightened the girl who spoke, making her shiver with fear. “You’re welcome. Are you free tonight? Let’s have dinner together.” Matthew extended a warm invitation to Eviette.
Standing in the crowd, Matthew became the most eye-catching presence. His every move exuded the elegance and nobility of royalty, and his cold appearance was accompanied by the temperament of a supermodel. His outstanding presence made him seem as though he was not part of the mundane world.
Eviette held the bouquet and nodded with her red lips. “Let me ask the director first.” While the two chatted under the gaze of the crowd, Veronica was being mocked and ridiculed by many people.
Melvin sat next to her. “Don’t listen to their nonsense. Most of them are just finding amusement in other people’s misfortunes. because they are not doing well themselves.”
Melvin had time to chat with Veronica because Camden was busy filming. Listening to his comforting words, she nodded. “You’re right.” She leaned against the railing and continued to read her script.
After experiencing so much in her life, she was already immune to gossip and ridicule from others. Why would she care about these rumors or the mockery of others?
Most importantly, she knew that Matthew and Eviette were just putting on a show, so she didn’t really mind. However, as more and more people gathered around her, Veronica raised her eyes to find Matthew standing nearby.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Why is he here? “I heard you had to do multiple retakes.” Matthew looked down at her from his towering height. Veronica felt excited when she saw him, but she didn’t want to make it obvious. Hence, she continued to read the script while replying nonchalantly, “Yes.”
