“Don’t rush to agree!” Sam Symons looked at her and pointed outside. “It’s a real-life shoot, right at the Blue Star Lake behind us, and the temperature is very low. If you can’t handle it, I’ll find a stand-in for you!”
Sam Symons adhered to his usual realistic shooting style. Even for fight scenes in the winter lake, he demanded high authenticity. One can imagine how challenging this shoot would be.
Veronica Murphy held the script and found the part that Sam Symons mentioned about shooting a fight scene in the snowy lake. She furrowed her brow and pondered for a few seconds before nodding firmly. “I have no problem.”
Because Matthew Kings had recently encountered too many tricky problems, it was highly likely that this movie would be her last. She would do her best to complete it. In life, if you can avoid regrets, then avoid them.
Moreover, this part of the fight scene in the lake only involved a short segment of two people falling into the water, so it should be quickly completed.
Sam Symons looked at Veronica Murphy in surprise, his gaze solemn, not knowing what he was thinking. Then he nodded slightly. “Good, you can do it. As a new actor, you should dare to take risks.” He affirmed Veronica Murphy’s choice.
“Go and prepare first,” Sam Symons said to Veronica Murphy. Veronica Murphy responded and left the indoor studio with the script.
Just as she walked out, Melvin Winson came towards her. “Veron, where did you go yesterday?” Melvin Winson asked curiously. Veronica Murphy smiled and was completely unguarded against his question. “I went to see a friend.”
“Oh, that’s why you weren’t here.”
Melvin Winson rubbed his hands together and exhaled a breath of hot air. “It’s so cold, let’s go and see the snow together.”
“Are you not afraid of Camden scolding you for accompanying me?”Veronica Murphy teased.
“He wouldn’t dare.” Melvin Winson raised an eyebrow and walked beside her, lowering his voice. “Camden wants me to spend more time with you. Isn’t he just trying to get you to teach her martial arts?”
As he spoke, he magically took out a string of candied haws from behind. “Here, authentic old-fashioned candied haws, specially bought for you.”
Small gestures are the easiest way to win someone’s heart. Melvin Winson had put in some effort and naturally knew how to win a girl’s heart. On a snowy day, Veronica Murphy couldn’t resist being able to eat an authentic string of candied haws.
She took the candied hawthorn on a stick and smiled. “Melvin Winson, you don’t have to buy me these snacks. You work hard for your money, so save it for yourself.” Her tone was serious. “I know your situation, you should save as much as you can.”
Veronica Murphy raised the candied hawthorn in her hand. “I’ll accept it this time, but there shouldn’t be a next time.”
Earlier, Melvin Winson had mentioned that his girlfriend had a terminal illness and needed a lot of money for treatment.
Referring to this matter,” Melvin Winson’s face, which had been filled with a smile, gradually turned sad. He lowered his head and let out a soft sigh. “We broke up. However, I secretly transferred all the money I earned from work to her hospital account.”
Listening to his unfortunate life experience, Veronica Murphy expressed sympathy. “What illness does your girlfriend have? Tell me about it, maybe I can help her.”
Veronica Murphy had previously participated in charitable public welfare activities and had quietly sponsored several impoverished college students in mountainous areas. So, if she could help with Melvin Winson’s “girlfriend” situation, it would be great.
“Ah? No, no, no need, no need.”
Melvin Winson was taken aback and waved his hand repeatedly. “Veron, I just think you’re a good person, that’s why I wanted to be friends with you. I didn’t intentionally tell you about my girlfriend to gain your sympathy, I…”
“What are you saying? That’s not what I meant.” Veronica Murphy didn’t expect Melvin Winson to be so sensitive. She comforted him. “Don’t overthink it, I just think your girlfriend is a good girl and it’s unfortunate for her.”
