“What?” Eviette Robins exclaimed, her excitement evident. Melvin Winson smirked mysteriously, stood up, and sat down next to her, leaning in close to her ear. After whispering, he locked eyes with her and raised an eyebrow. “What do you think?”
“Melvin, you’re truly clever,” Eviette Robins sincerely praised, even giving him a thumbs up. In her mind, she replayed the plan that Melvin Winson had just mentioned, and a smile unconsciously formed on her lips.
Meanwhile, Veronica Murphy was actively and seriously filming. She had been busy until four o’clock in the afternoon before finally having some free time.
It was likely after Veronica Murphy had an accident that Matthew Kings went to question Sam Symons, making Sam Symons realize Veronica Murphy’s importance. His attitude towards her had also changed, and he thoughtfully arranged a recliner for her.
After a day of performing fight scenes and doing wire stunts, she was now exhausted and just wanted to lie down for a while. Was there a need to be pretentious and refuse the director’s kind offer?
After expressing her gratitude repeatedly, Veronica Murphy lay down on the recliner, covered herself with a thin blanket, and called Eleanor Gomez on her phone. The phone rang a few times before the call was ended.
Then a text message appeared.
[If there’s something urgent, I’ll contact you later.] It was a message from Eleanor Gomez.
Veronica Murphy didn’t know what Eleanor Gomez was busy with, so she sent her another message out of concern: [Take care and call me after you’re done.]
Ding-
After sending the message, a reply came back quickly. [Got it, my lady.]
Seeing the content of the message and recognizing Eleanor Gomez’s tone, Veronica Murphy’s anxious heart finally settled.
Veronica Murphy lay on the recliner in the corridor, looking from afar at Eviette Robins who was filming a scene with Camden Sullivan. There was an indissoluble melancholy in her eyes.
After watching for a while, just as Veronica Murphy was about to look away, her gaze inadvertently met Mia Stuart not far away.
Their eyes met. Mia Stuart’s expression was somewhat unnatural. She stood there for a moment, then walked towards Veronica Murphy and stopped in front of her.
She was still wearing her costume, but because it was winter and Matt was cold, she had put on a long white down coat that reached her knees. and wrapped a scarf around her neck. In her hands, she held a camel-colored teddy bear-like hot water bottle.
“Um…” She nervously pursed her lips, looking down at the hot water bottle in her hands. “I have an extra hot water bottle, so… you can use this. You fell into the water that day, right? Don’t catch a cold.”
Veronica Murphy: “..
Yesterday’s staged performance was truly astonishing. She was staring at Mia Stuart in a daze, while Mia Stuart seemed uncomfortable with Veronica Murphy’s gaze and quickly explained, “I just thought that if you catch a cold, it would delay the progress of the crew. Don’t think too much about it.”
With that, she threw the hot water bag directly into Veronica Murphy’s arms and quickly ran away. The hot water bag landed on her thin blanket and soon provided warmth, which was very comforting. Veronica Murphy, not being melodramatic, hugged the hot water bag tightly inside the blanket.
This winter was particularly cold, especially on that day when it rained and then she developed a high fever. Her body couldn’t withstand the cold. She watched Mia Stuart’s figure and couldn’t help but laugh and cry.
There was no deep hatred between her and Mia Stuart, but Mia Stuart was like an immature child, always nitpicking or throwing tantrums to annoy her. Veronica Murphy didn’t take it to heart..
Before long, Larry Freeman walked over and sat with her to chat. Two hours later, Larry Freeman. received an urgent phone call and hurriedly left the crew.
The crew finished work at seven in the evening. Veronica Murphy, Camden Sullivan, and Melvin. Winson left the crew together and went to a nearby sushi restaurant. They found the most secluded corner to sit.
The three of them were fully armed, wrapped up tightly. Fortunately, it was winter, so wearing masks and hats wouldn’t attract attention, and no one noticed their presence.
While eating sushi, the three of them chatted happily. During Camden Sullivan’s trip to the restroom, Melvin Winson’s phone suddenly rang.
He answered the call, and his eyebrows furrowed. “What? You’re saying her condition has worsened again? How could this happen?”
