“What about winning awards? Can’t keep up with having a guardian angel!”
Frederic could hear the sarcasm in Millie’s tone and knew the complexity of the entertainment industry. Michelle
had to depend on Trinity to survive. He took a discreet glance at Trinity only to see the latter’s reddened eyes and
felt his heart clench for no reason.
Cordelia padded to Michelle. “How are you getting used to the set life, Ms. Carmichael?”
Frederic was happy to see Cordelia’s concern for Michelle and immediately gestured for the latter to speak more to
Cordelia.
Despite that, Michelle’s gaze toward Cordelia was obviously one of jealousy and fear.
“I brought you a unique set of tea.” Cordelia waved a hand with a smile, and someone behind her took out what
was in the small basket.
The dessert on the pretty porcelain was in the shape of a snake.

cooler.”
Everyone knew that Cordelia was calling Michelle a snake. They said nothing but were secretly laughing.
“Ms. Carmichael, these doggy-shaped cookies are great too.” Cordelia picked up a dish of cookies from the side.
“They’re designed to be female doggies, you know. Try them!
“Why? You don’t like them?” Cordelia asked intentionally. “Another socialite had this tea before you, and she
thought it was great! It’d be a waste not to try them.”
“You—” Michelle was furious, but she dared not say anything. When she met Cordelia’s stern gaze, she felt shivers
run down her back.
Frederic swiftly understood what Cordelia meant and knew that this conflict was most likely Michelle’s fault.
However, he still stepped forward to put himself in front of her.
Even if the entire world was pointing fingers at Michelle, he refused to give up. He was willing to turn against the
world for her.
Frederic said softly, “Cordelia, Michelle has just joined the crew and has a lot of things she doesn’t know. She’ll need
lots of guidance and understanding from you all.”
“I don’t have to understand her.” Cordelia smiled while looking at him. “I’m just here to check on the outcome
according to schedule. But I’d like you to understand Ms. Lulham. She’s the most tired one in this whole filming
crew!”
“Yes, it’s—”
“And I heard that this scene’s been stuck forever, is it?”
“Yeah.” Millie spoke again. “It’s supposed to be a real slap, but Ms. Trinity here feels bad for Michelle and doesn’t
allow it!”
“Wouldn’t this affect the progress then?”
Cordelia took a seat behind the monitor, and the assistant director understood it instantly, yelling into the speaker
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmto get everyone ready.
The camera was set, and the actors had done their touch-ups. Millie stood where she was supposed to be as well.
Michelle was the only one standing rooted at a loss.
“What’s the matter?” Cordelia raised a brow. “You really don’t want to shoot anymore?”
Frederic dared not confront Cordelia. This production was really a big one that would benefit Michelle’s career, so
he asked her to hold out until they were done with this take.
Michelle was incredibly reluctant, standing across Millie after a simple touch-up.
“Since we want the effect, do it real! Ms. Lulham, what do you think?”
Trinity took a deep breath and nodded weakly.
Millie smiled, more than ready.
“No, I disagree!” Michelle stomped her foot in panic. “Frederic, say something!”
“Frederic’s not the director. What do you want him to say?” Cordelia was stern. “Michelle Carmichael, don’t drag
the whole crew down because of you alone! The investors reserve the right to hold you accountable!”
“Cordelia, you—”
“Let’s start!”
