Get Spoiled after Travelling into A Novel

Chapter 86 Unexplained Hostility Finished Milly took a deep breath. "Just listen to me. You're older than me, so you can just callMilly" Joy pressed her lips together and, after a long pause, finally said, “Alright, I'll call you Milly then." "Good." Milly replied, "As long as you don't callMs. Burnett." As they reached the filming location, they could hear Alan's angry voice booming from a distance, shaking the walls.

"What? We're about to start filming, and now you suddenly say he won't do it? What was he doing before. this Next to him stood a slender man with glasses, bent over and apologising profusely, cautiously explaining. "Mr. Hawkins, please don't be angry. We really liked the script. If we didn't, we wouldn't have signed the contract. But... well, Oliver suddenly fell ill. He's been vomiting and having severe diarrhea. We didn't want one person to delay the entire crew, so we had to make a tough decision. Don't worry, we'll pay all the penalties." Alan's eyebrows knitted into a tight frown, clearly not buying the excuse. "Vomiting and diarrhea? I saw him half an hour ago, and he was full of energy. I'd love to know what illness can cause such a drastic change in such a short time." Robin was at a loss for words. But since he'd already committed to the lie, he couldn't back out now.

Robin's mind raced. What illness could cause vomiting and diarrhea? Food poisoning? Water contamination? It couldn't be a mental illness, right? Being an agent was so exhausting. He wished he could just go scavenge for junk instead.

Seeing Robin hesitating, trembling, and unable to speak, Alan had a good guess of what was going on. He snorted coldly. "Just say it. What's really happening with him?" Robin bit his lip and sighed lightly. "Mr. Hawkins, the truth is... About the actress you chose to partner with Oliver, he thinks she's not suitable." Alan's voice was icy. "Reason?" "You know, Oliver is still riding on his popularity. It's easy for people to find faults and gossip. If he acts with someone who has no skills, it could harm his career. He's thinking about his professional future." Hearing this, Alan almost doubted himself. His gaze towards Robin was full of mockery.

He really dared to say that. Oliver's acting during the audition was so terrible that if Alan hadn't taken heart medicine beforehand, he might not have survived to see the end of it.

If it weren't for the fact that the author of the original "Silent Sea" specifically requested Oliver for the role and even publicly stated on Twitter that Oliver was the inspiration for the character, Alan wouldn't have chosen him at all.

Now that the cast list for the movie had been released, and all the costumes and character designs had been finalised, he suddenly decided not to act? All their prior preparation would be wasted.

Chapter 86 Unexplained Hostility Finished If this had happened earlier, they might have had tto make changes, but they were about to start. The media had arrived for the opening ceremony today, and pulling out now would cause nothing but trouble for the crew.

"I don't care if he's vomiting, has diarrhea, or even a terminal illness. He needs to drag himself here and finish this movie. Go, bring him toimmediately!" Alan's handls were shaking with anger.

Robin was at a loss. "But..." It wasn't that he didn't want to go, he was just afraid that Oliver would cand start a fight with Alan. Witnessing the scene, Milly took a deep breath and stepped forward. "Mr. Hawkins." Alan, who was about to continue his tirade, saw her and instantly swallowed his harsh words. However, his expression didn't improve much. "Oh, you're here." Milly nodded.

She knew how difficult it was to replace an actor at the last minute after all the preparations had been made, especially when the situation was partly because of her. She felt she had to do something.

Oliver...

The nsounded familiar. It seemed like she had heard it somewhere before..

Looking at Alan, whose brow was tightly furrowed, she pressed her lips together and got straight to the point. "Mr. Hawkins, I heard your conversation just now. I'm a new actress, so it's normal for there to be sconcerns about me. How about this-I'll go talk to Mr. Oliver myself. After all, the one who ties the knot should untie it." Robin thought Milly was quite tactful and had high emotional intelligence. His impression of her improved significantly. "Mr. Hawkins, I think this is a good idea." He also wanted Oliver to take on this role, as it could greatly help with his transition. If Milly could persuade Oliver to continue, it would be a good thing.

However, Alan frowned and didn't immediately agree.

This idea might work, but Milly was under the protection of both the Burnetts and the Tates. She had two billion dollars of investment riding on her. If she got bullied and the Burnetts and the Tates found out, his investments would go up in smoke! His brows knitted into a tight knot, and his tone revealed his irritation. "No, I don't want you to get hurt." Milly was puzzled.

Before she could ask what he meant, a coquettish voice suddenly interrupted, breaking the tension between them.

"Mr. Hawkins, are you worried about Oliver? I can help. After all, I've worked with Oliver before, and we have a pretty good relationship."

The newcomer was a petite girl with pigtails and fair skin, looking like a doll. Behind her stood two assistants, ope holding a parasol for her and the other carrying numerous bags and personal items, including a cup with a lipstick mark on it. Chapter 86 Unexplained Hostility She looked every bit the high-status diva.

Noticing Milly's glance at the assistants, Joy quickly whispered in her ear, Milly' take care of you like that starting tomorrow. Milly hurriedly waved her hands. "No, no, that's too much!" But Joy was insistent. "Mr. Burnett said we shouldn't be outdone. We can't appear inferior to them!" Milly was speechless.

Where did Joy get this competitive streak from?

Alan glanced at the girl who had arrived. "Oh, it's Michelle. Alrightm since you've worked with Oliver before; you might be able to talk to him. Go ahead." Michelle beamed. “Okay, Mr. Hawkins." As she passed by Milly, she squinted her eyes, radiating an unfriendly vibe that Milly couldn't ignore.

Milly frowned. She didn't seem to know this girl.

Where did this hostility cfrom? [M 20 M0
