Chapter 181
Kiara smiled and left with her assistant.
The assistant mumbled. “Who does she think she is? She schemed behind sister Maria’s back and chase her away, causing you to lose your manager. Now that we meet at the company, she didn’t even greet us!”
“In the past, people from the small companies like the Brilliant really can’t do it.”
“Alright, stop talking.” Kiara sighed, “Sister Maria’s matter has always passed. If there words were to spread, it would be looking for trouble for us. As for Arya…”
She paused for a moment and thought of the cold face just now. “She is indeed very interesting person. Let’s not care about her now. We will look at her in future.”
“Alright then.” The assistant could only not say anymore and secretly remembered Arya’s debt.
When Maria was still around, Kiara was the company’s biggest star. All of her treatments were different from other artists. She could even request her own exclusive team.
She was popular and had works. She was still young and had opportunities. Melinda naturally supported her and she was also one of Arya’s strong opponents in the Aorai.
Seeing Kiara leave, Justin pushed open the door of the meeting room.
“She is most powerful in the Aorai. You just signed the contract with the company and treated her so coldly. It may cause unnecessary trouble.”
No matter how virtuous Arya was, she could not get rid of some worldly relationships.
Unless she had enough background to support her position, she did not need to curry favor with anyone.
Arya did not care about this.
“Am I cold?” Arya frowned. This was how she treated strangers.
Justin shook his head when he heard her say it. “Maria used to be her manager. I am worried that she will put the blame on you.”
In addition, Arya signing a high-profile contract with Aorai, she had more or less stolen Kiara’s limelight. It was not uncommon for the company to fight for resources internally. novelbin
Although Arya did not have any bad intentions, her attitude was still there. The faint aura of alienation was already thousands miles away. This was also a reason for Justin’s worry.
“Even if I treated her warmly, would she tolerate me fighting for best resources with her in Aorai?” Arya blinked her eyes. There was a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
Just as they were discussing about this matter, Melinda walked in with Walter.
When she saw Walter, she did not have any expression on her face and was a little concerned in her heart. But she was already used to these changes and did not ask any more questions.
On the other hand, Justin appeared a little unhappy.
“Alright, let’s have the meeting.”
“The Artist Director seat is still empty. I have decided that you guys will be the charge of some of the artists. After the year-end meeting, I will decide after seeing your performance.”
“Therefore, the opportunity is in your hand.”
She said this to calm the internal dispute of Justin within the company.
On the other hand, she might want to put Walter in an important position.
The next main topic was Arya’s future work arrangements. She also mentioned Arya’s relationship. In the past, Walter had also ruined Arya’s matters. Melinda did not want that kind of unhappiness happen again in the future.
“In the future, we will be a family. If you have anything to say on the surface, don’t do anything behind the scenes. If I found out, I will not tolerate it.”
“Walter, although Justin is Arya’s manager, once there is a problem I will also pursue your responsibility. The company will depend on the two of you in the future.”
Her words were impartial.
She asked them to lead their respective teams and to hold each other back.
Arya lowered her eyes. Melinda was indeed an outstanding businessman.
Walter was very scheming. He nodded and said, “Don’t worry, Director Carter. I will do as you say.” Of course he would not make the same mistake twice.
Justin did not want to stay any longer. “Director Carter, we are leaving. We will enter the group in the afternoon.”
“Alright, Arya. Many your journey be smooth.” Melinda smiled and instructed.
Arya nodded slightly and left with Justin.
In the office, Walter’s originally stiff body relaxed a lot. Melinda saw the situation and said with a smile, “I know all of you are a little uncomfortable, but there is no hurdle in this world. Those things should be
put down.”
“There is nothing that I cannot put down. I just feel that Arya is unfathomable, especially the power behind her.”
Walter wanted to test Melinda and see if she knew who the person behind Arya was.
“Behind her?” Melinda shrugged indifferently, “Apart from the Morrison family, who else could she have behind her? Although the Morrison Family has some influence in the business world, they are not involved in the entertainment industry. In addition, Arya does not have a good relationship with them.”
“Even if they helped Arya clear some obstacles behind her back, it is only because of face.”
“But the company’s artistes’ relationships have always been banned. Arya’s actions do not conform to the rules.” Walter stood up. “I think still favor Arya and Justin.”
“Do I?” Melinda shook the cup in her hand. “Who can say for sure what happens in this world? Maybe they will break up in a few days. Furthermore, dating doesn’t prove anything.”
As expected, she had other plans.
“Do you know who that person is? A person in the industry?” Walter continued to inquire.
“I don’t know, but I don’t think he is a powerful person. Otherwise, Arya would not keep avoiding this topic. I want to know the answer more than you do. I have also been sending people to investigate.”
Knowing Melinda’s thoughts, Walter’s uneasiness calmed down a little.
It turned out that she did not completely trust Arya.
But she did not know that the man’s identity was not that easy to investigate. Arya was also not something she could use.
…
On the other side.
Arya asked Justin to drive her halfway and asked to get off.
The production team’s Hisith Film and Television Base was three hours away from the city. Arya wanted Justin and Luna to drive the nanny car over first and she would appear at the base on time.
Justin saw her request and could only agree. Luna carried Arya’s luggage and got into the car. Seeing Justin still hesitating, she said, “Let’s go. Arya will definitely be there on time.”
“Are you sure?” Justin looked at her and found that Luna was very relaxed. He had a bold thought in his heart. “They have been together for a long time? Did they do the same in the past?”
He did not expect Arya to be so emotional towards her lover.
It was just that there was no true lover in the entertainment circle. Justin was afraid that Arya would be cheated of money and sex in the end, and both men and women would have nothing to do with each other.
“En.” Luna knew that it was not the time to let Justin now. She did not say much and plugged in her earphones to watch the movie.
At this time, Arya was already sitting in Allen’s car. She leaned against his shoulder.
“Actually, I can come alone. You still have so many things to do in your company. I don’t want to be a burden to you.”
“I also have business to discuss at the film base. I’ll accompany you along the way.” Allen already had a plan in his mind.
Chapter 182
Martin smiled as he drove. Dahua Entertainment was involved in too many projects. They only needed to send an ordinary employee to the small projects in the film and television base. Director Jones, on the other hand, had pushed three meetings. He had come personally for only one reason.
He could not bear to part with his newly wedded wife.
Arya had the bracelet he gave her on her wrist. He had the watch on her wrist. Although it was sweet, it lacked a sense of ceremony.
Some things could not be replaced by rings.
Looking at Arya’s slander fingers, Allen’s thoughts became even more urgent.
By the time their car arrived at the film and television base, Justin had already arrived. It looked like he was waiting for someone.
Arya blinked. “Put me here.”
Allen nodded and agreed, but asked Martin to stop at the entrance of the hotel.
“Your room has been arranged. I will go up later.” He would not let Arya stay in the room arranged by the production team.
Arya smiled and walked into the hotel through the front door.
Justin was still waiting in the parking lot. He wanted to see who would send Arya over. Every car that entered the film studio had to be recorded, but to Allen, these procedures were just for decoration.
Of course, his car was unimpeded.
So when Justin walked into the hotel in puzzlement, Arya had already been waiting in the lobby for a long time.
Luna held back her laughter and said, “Alright, she’s here. Let’s go up.”
“You…” Justin was stunned. He had been watching at the door all this time. Whose car did Arya take?
“I didn’t expect Manager Palmer to be so curious.” Arya smiled and took her room card and luggage to another VIP elevator.
“That is not the room arranged by the company, is it?”
Because the companies of celebrities were different, the hotels in the film and television base had four different levels of rooms to choose from. The three rooms reserved by the Aorai were better than the rooms in the production team, but the number of top rooms was not many. It was not something that ordinary people could book.
Luna nudged Justin with her elbow. “Let’s go.”
Just as Arya walked into the elevator, a tall figure walked out from the other side. The man with a strong back also went into the elevator. Justin felt that the figure was very domineering. He did not know who it was.
But he had a feeling. Arya was not waiting for him in the hall, but for that man.
Justin immediately shook his head. It should be his imagination.
Since Arya said she would go with her lover, why would she not want to expose that man’s identity?
In the elevator, Luna was very relaxed and at ease. Justin coughed, “There is no wall in the world that is impervious to wind. If Arya’s love is exposed, what are you guys going to do?”
“Could it be that you can only watch her fame go down and her fans get rid of her?”
“Every woman will marry and have children. Could it be that the female stars in the entertainment industry can’t fall in love? Who set the rules!” Luna refuted, “I know Arya just joined the Aorai. You all hope that she can struggle for a few more years but their relationship will not affect her.”
If the outside world knew that President of Dahua’s wife was Arya, then her career in acting would be smooth sailing. There was no need to work so hard.
“You knew that man’s identity long ago?”
Seeing Luna so sure and so at ease, could it be that the man’s strength was very great?
Luna carried her suitcase and walked to the room while saying. “I know you used to be the gold manager of the Aorai and have seen many unsatisfactory love affairs in the entertainment industry, but this person is different from what you think. He loves Arya very much and will not let her suffer a little. Do you think ordinary people can arrange the top rooms upstairs?”
“This…” Justin could not refute.
He always thought that the man Arya hid would be exposed soon. She was just struggling.
But now it seemed that he had misunderstood something.
“Don’t think about it. Help Arya properly and do what a manager should do.” After Luna finished speaking, she entered her room.
Justin thought that although Arya’s schedule had been arranged, the matter of joining the group had only been finalized last week. To be able to book the top rooms of this hotel within a few days, this man was indeed very capable.
But who could be the person who had the strength and background and was willing to love Arya and accompany her out to film?
…
The weather gradually turned cold. Allen specially ordered the hotel to add two blankets. He held Arya tenderly. “Is it still cold?”
“It’s okay.” Arya sneezed as she spoke. It was easier for her to get sick when the season changed.
“Take a hot bath. I’ll prepare it for you.” Allen felt sorry for her.
It was not until late at night that Arya’s cold symptoms had subsided. She hid in Allen’s arms and frowned. She wanted to get out of his arms but held back by the man.
“What are you hiding from?”
“I’m afraid of you being infected.” Arya said in a daze.
“I’m not afraid. If you spread it to me, you’ll get better quickly.” Her body was hot and Allen hugged her tightly.
He would rather he was the one who was sick.
According to Arya’s condition, he would not allow her to work too hard.
In the room downstairs in the hotel, Justin was discussing the shooting tomorrow with Assistant Director Fox from the production team. Because Director Clark had temporarily taken care of screening schedule, he was not in the crew.
Assistant Director Fox was in the charge of everything in the crew.
Because Arya’s guest role had appeared early stages of the film, there would be many external scenes. However, the weather was not good. In addition to Arya’s weak body, Justin wanted to request from the crew to see if they could change the interior or think of other ways. novelbin
But halfway through his words, Assistant Director Fox said very rudely, “Got it. We will look after the arrangements.”
“Is that so? Then why did I get the arrangements for the shooting of early morning scenes. At that time, it will be very cold to shoot outside.”
“We’ll be going out together. Aren’t we cold? She can’t even endure this kind of hardship. What kind of actor are we?”
After saying that, the other party shouted and hung up the phone.
These things were not too much. Moreover, at the beginning of their conversation, Justin had already mentioned that due to the cold weather, they should try their best not to shoot outside. They agreed readily, but now they changed their words.
He was not a flattering manager. Everything he did was to protect his artiste.
He immediately decided to call Director Clark.
Director Clark was sweating when he heard that. It the Dahua knew Arya was suffering in his crew, how would he survive in the future? He quickly informed Assistant Director Fox, but the later thought that
Arya was messing with him behind his back. It was too exaggerated. He did not listen to Director Clark’s advice at all.
In the crew, the director was the biggest!
She, as an actor, had no right to say no. He had been in the industry for so many years, but he had never seen such a smug movie star.
Chapter 183
Although it’s just a guest actor, it’s just a small role for the crew. But Arya still had a lot of work to do. If she fell sick because of this role, the rest of her work would be affected.
Justin was very worried. The next morning, he went to negotiate with the crew. They vaguely replied that Assistant Director had changed the filming venue.
Justin thought that it had changed from an external scene to an internal one.
At nine in the morning, when Arya was ready to go downstairs, Allen stopped her. “How is your health?”
He touched Arya’s forehead as he spoke. Indeed, the fever had stopped and she was energized.
“Don’t worry. I know what to do. I only have to say a few lines and it will be over very soon.” Arya smiled gently. She did not want Allen to worry.
“I will send you there.” Allen picked up the car keys.
Arya stopped him. “Someone might have seen you outside. It’s not good to be captured by the reporters. Wait for me in the room. I’ll be back soon.”
“Besides, I’m not that weak. This level is nothing.”
Allen had no choice but to agree when he heard what she said.
After Arya went downstairs, he changed into his trench coat and followed her. He did not want Arya to suffer and could not control his worry for her.
When Arya arrived at the shooting site and saw the temporary outdoor studio, she stopped. Luna frowned beside her. “It’s so cold to shoot here!”
If she remembered correctly, it was a summer scene!
They wanted Arya to wear a dress to shoot outside at the end of November?
Adding that it was cloudy today, it was too much to ask.
Justin had already arrived. He was about to argue with Assistant Director Fox. “Is this the filming venue that you modified? You want her to wear a summer dress to shoot your impromptu act at two degrees below zero?”
“What’s wrong with that? This is about the production team. I’m just following the procedure.”
“Out script took a quite a few seasons. The other actors all filmed it like this. It won’t work when it comes to Arya?” Assistant Director snorted and threw the script on the table.
“If you want to do it, go and change your cloths. If you don’t want to do it, then forget it. There are so many actors outside waiting for a big movie like this.”
As actors, there was nothing they could do when they were shooting counterseason scenes. However, half of the cast and crew would take care of the actors’ bodies. When shooting outside scenes in cold weather, they would also take appropriate measures to keep them warm. If the actors were in good condition, they would shoot quickly.
However, when they looked around, they did not see a thick coat or a temporary heater at all.
On the other hand, the staff seemed to have received the news long ago. Each of them was holding a water heater.
“Ava, go outside and spend a hundred dollars to hire a group actress who can wear a dress. Tell them what the professional quality of an actor is!”
Assistant Director was obviously insulting them!
Luna was so angry that she could only place her hopes on Justin. Justin was also very angry.
“This is best arranged by your crew? You are doing this because you have taken some benefits and deliberately torturing Arya!”
When Assistant Director Fox heard this, he coughed unnaturally and pretended to be calm. “Don’t talk nonsense! Are you going to shoot or not?”
“I’ll shoot.” Arya walked up and stood in front of them.
“You…” Justin wanted to go over and stop her, but Arya shook her head.
“But I have few questions to ask this Assistant Director.”
Arya looked at him coldly, “How many years have you been in the industry?”
“Six years!” Assistant Director said proudly.
“I took on the first movie when I was seventeen. I’ve been in the industry for more than eight years this year. What do you think I’ve not seen before?” Arya looked at the side and picked up the temporary shooting arrangements. “I don’t think my manager’s request is too much. Furthermore, I am definitely not the most difficult actor to deal with. Since this is the production arrangement, I can accept it.”
“But please understand one thing. I am compromising because of mu professionalism. If someone tries to play any tricks behind my back, don’t blame me for being impolite. I hold a grudge.”
Arya was originally very cold and arrogant. When she said these words, Assistant Director was clearly stunned.
After so many years, she was used to seeing these people’s faces. She did not need to ask what kinds of thoughts were hidden behind their backs. She did not need to ask to understand.
Did he think that she was new and easy to bully?
If she and Justin were angered, the crew would only take Assistant Director’s words as a basis and announce to public that they were playing big. Were there not many rookies that had been ruined by these people these years?
“Luna, come with me to change clothes.” novelbin
“Are you really going to shoot?” Luna was very worried.
“Yes.” Arya smiled and took the clothes into the changing room. It was good for everyone to finish filming as soon as possible.
Just as Arya was changing, Luna received a call from Allen. “What’s going on?”
Allen saw the temporary shooting studio in the car and guessed that something had changed.
Of course Luna did not dare to hide it and told everything in detail, “Justin has already considered Arya very much and has negotiated a few times but the other party’s attitude is firm…”
“Tell her not to shoot. I will handle it.”
After Luna hung up the phone, she ran to the changing room to tell Arya this news.
Arya slightly frowned. “I cannot do this.”
Since she was an actress, she had to follow her own work arrangements. When she was a newcomer in the past, it was not like she had never experienced this kind of hardship before. A lot of it could not be solved with manpower.
Now, because Allen was supporting her, she could turn around and leave. But what if Allen was not her husband?
She had no choice but to suffer this kind of hardship.
Knowing that she insisted on taking the picture, Allen’s face darkened. He said coldly on the other end of the phone. “Alright, take the picture. After taking the picture, all the staff present can lose their jobs.”
Arya put down her phone and sighed helplessly.
Justin saw something and said, “He also doesn’t agree with you taking the picture?”
“Yes.” Arya nodded and said helplessly, “I hope nothing happen in a while. I don’t want to make him angry.”
Justin looked at Arya’s expression and looked away. After he came into contract with Arya recently, he found that she was really a very self-disciplined actress. It could be said that she was clear stream among the actresses in the acting circle. She never took the initiative to violate others, but when she was slandered or trifled with, she would not show any mercy when she retaliated.
He did not know how this matter today would end.
“Luna and I are by the side. I will not let anything happen to you.”
Justin nodded and told Justin. “When I walk out of this door, you will take a picture of everything that happened.”
As she spoke, Arya walked out. The wind blew coldly on her face. Because it was too cold, she could not help but shiver. Following Assistant Director’s request, she stood in front of the plane.
Chapter 184
Assistant Director sat there looking pleased with himself. There was hot tea in front of him and he was wrapped in thick clothes. He wanted to see how long Arya could last!
The other crew members were also wearing warm clothes. Each of them had a faint smile on their faces. It was as if they were watching a good show.
In the crew, it the director wanted to poison a certain actor, there was nothing that could not be done. Arya was in a terrible situation today…
Luna looked at the auxiliary computer by the side. “Why is there no one over there? Could it be that you want to repeat it several times?”
Assistant Director roared impatiently, “Why is an assistant of yours so talkative? If you want to film here, you have to listen to me! Get ready to start!”
Luna was worried for Arya and wanted to argue a little more but was stopped by the later.
“It’s useless to say too much.” Arya endured her temper but no one noticed the coldness in her eyes.
Assistant Director had a mocking smile on his face when he saw Arya was so easy to bully. In their group, Director Clark was the one with the most backing. Arya was more than enough to deal with.
A person who did not have a backing could only be bullied in this field.
“Change your clothes and quickly go over. There will be a rain show later!”
Justin frowned at the side. Following Arya’s instructions, he turned on his phone and started recording.
When he saw Arya’s pale face and stiff movements, he stood out and shouted, “Forget it, we will not take any more pictures.”
“You are not taking any photos? What kind of place do you think this is? If you don’t want to shoot, why did you come here?”
Assistant Director’s expression immediately became very scary. “There are so many of us here with her. Do you think our crew has nothing better to do? We haven’t started filming yet. You company’s artistes can’t even endure this bit of hardship. Stop mingling in the entertainment circle. Get married and have children as soon as possible.” novelbin
“You guys!”
“The temperature is already close to zero degrees. Is it appropriate to shoot a rain scene?”
“What’s wrong? Isn’t this very normal?” Assistant Director snorted lazily, as if he was watching a good show.
Arya smiled coldly at the side. She took the thin coat from Luna’s hands and draped it over her body. “Luna, go get my clothes.”
Luna quickly went to get it but the cloths were splashed with water and could not be worn at all.
Arya only slightly frowned. Then she did not even look at Assistant Director and directly walked outside.
“Arya, you are not going to act anymore, right? You are really amazing!” Assistant Director’s expression was a little flustered. He only wanted to teach Arya a lesson. He was sure that Arya would not dare to use this role to fight against him.
Accepting this movie would increase Arya’s popularity and exposure. So Arya must endure it. But he had forgotten one thing.
Arya was not someone who could be easily bullied.
Arya stood in a slightly warmer place and looked at the staffs around her who were covered with warm cloths. She only added a thin coat over her skirt. Even so, she still stood straight.
“Look for yourself.” Arya took the phone from Justin’s hand. On it was the image of all the staff and Arya frozen in front of the camera.
Comparing the two sides, one could tell who was right and who was wrong at a glance.
“I don’t know why you did this and I don’t care. But this about it, if this video was posted online, what kind of effect would it produce? Assistant Director, what do you think?”
Arya’s gaze was extremely cold. Those who were looking at her by side did not dare to look at her.
“We are just doing normal work!” Assistant Director was somewhat flustered and exasperated. He did not expect Arya to keep this hand.
“Is that so? Then send it out for everyone to judge.”
“Arya, are you crazy? You are just an actress and you still want to make a scene with the crew?”
“I am not fighting with you. I am just fighting for my own rights.”
Assistant Director coughed and looked at the staff around him. He glared at Arya angrily, “You are just a movie queen who has passed her time. Do you think our crew needs an actress like you? You do not want to shoot, right? Then get out of here right now!”
Arya coldly looked up at him. Justin and Luna were also angered by this sentence. Luna first went to find something for Arya to keep warm.
When Justin walked to the front of Assistant Director to argue for Arya, a tall figure appeared beside Arya. Immediately after, a gray coat with warmth draped over Arya’s body.
Everyone looked at this man who suddenly appeared…
Allen Jones!
The president of Dahua Entertainment!
Why did he suddenly appear here? Everyone wondered if they had seen wrongly. Even Justin was dumbfounded.
Luna saw him come over and heaved a sigh of relief. She went to pour Arya a cup of hot tea and waited to see him deal with these people.
The crew members were all stunned. The dignified president of Dahua Group actually… stood beside Arya? What kind of relationship did they have!
“Director Jones, why are you…” Assistant Director trembled and shouted. He immediately revealed a flattering smile.
However, Allen did not look at him at all. He just carefully put on a coat for Arya and used a scarf to cover her face.
Justin suddenly understood.
The person who arranged a room for Arya and sent her over was Allen.
He was Arya’s man. That man Arya said she would trust more than anything else.
Justin was also shocked. He never thought that the man whose identity Arya did not want to expose was actually Allen. He also did not expect Arya to have such a background. The Dahua was her backer and her umbrella.
This actress who had been deeply involved in the rumors was Allen’s woman.
If words got out, those who had bullied Arya in the past would probably be scared silly. Now he finally understood why Arya did not reveal her identity.
Because she wanted to rely on her own strength to fight for it step by step…
If their relationship was made public, then everyone would only pay attention to her and Allen’s relationship and not her. This was what Arya did not want to see the most.
Of course, Arya was sincere to him. It was just that he did not know how important Arya’s position in the heart of this entertainment circle’s emperor was.
After Allen appeared, his concern for Arya made Assistant Director very nervous.
He had just bullied Arya. If Allen stood up for her, any word could kill him.
“I’m fine. Thank you, Director Jones…” Arya smiled and politely at Allen.
Allen was sure that she was fine. He took a step to the side and said in a deep voice. “I just happened to be here on a business trip. I saw you filming. Why are you dressed so little on such a cold day? Is there no thermal protection at all…”
Arya knew that Allen was going to stand up for her. She replied. “These are all work requirements…”
“Is that so?” Allen’s face turned cold. He looked at the crew, especially Assistant Director. “Is it the script’s requirements to let actors dress like this?”
Chapter 185
Allen’s question made Assistant Director so nervous that he didn’t dare to speak. He kept his head down and didn’t dare to look at him.
“Say something. Weren’t you very professional just now? Or did you see that Arya and I are friends? So, you don’t dare to continue what you did just now.”
“Director Jones, these are all misunderstandings. I can explain! I really did not think that you and Miss Arya are friends.” Assistant Director stuttered to explain, hoping to get Allen’s forgiveness.
“Misunderstanding? Is that how you treat actors? Can she still say something when she’s frozen like this?”
“Do you really want to film, or are you using such a pretense to bully others?”
Allen’s voice was very cold, and it was filled with anger that could not be disobeyed.
“I’m sorry. Director Jones, I really…”
Assistant Director broke out in a cold sweat. He had no words to refuse Allen’s question.
“I think Arya has done everything an actress can do. Are you guys professional enough?” Allen’s face turned cold. “This is not a problem that can be solved by letting me down.”
“Director Jones…”
“Unless you can prove that you can wear summer cloths and act in the rain scene in this weather.” Allen pulled two stools sat down with Arya, waiting Assistant Director’s performance.
The people around them all were from the production team. They all lowered their heads because they were also the ones who had just watched the show. Now, Allen was clearly going to take revenge for Arya.
Assistant Director smiled awkwardly. “Director Jones, the weather is too cold. Besides, I’m not an actress.”
“What’s wrong with not being an actress? She’s an actress and she listened to your management. You, a man, feel cold?”
Allen’s words were filled with suppressed anger. He had already restrained his temper, but he had to stand up for Arya today.
Assistant Director lowered his head. He was the president of Dahua Group.
He did not dare to provoke him. From this moment on, he had to follow their wishes. Otherwise, what awaited him would be losing his job.
The cast and crew watched helplessly as the Assistant Director took off this clothes and stood in the cold weather in his boxers. He was shivering from cold.
“Say the lines.” Allen said coldly.
“I…” Assistant Director did not even have the strength to speak. His lips were purple from the cold. He stood in front of everyone, not knowing what to do.
Allen did not look at him anymore. Instead, he looked at the other crew members. “Arya’s clothes are wet from the water. Who made it?”
The crew memberes were all scared, especially the staff in change of clothing. In the end, they pointed out a makeup artist.
It was a young woman. She opened her eyes wide and said nervously, “I did not mean to…”
But Allen did not want to hear her explanation. He said directly, “Pour the water on her that you are preparing to shoot a rain scene. If you don’t finish, don’t leave.”
They tortured Arya like this, how could she retreat unscathed?
He could not help but want to standup for Arya a long time ago. Now that things had come to this point, he felt very sorry for her.
Those people from the production team were all stunned for a moment. When they saw, how persistent Allen was, they knew that they could not avoid it. They could only pour all the water on that makeup artist.
“We have no choice…”
“Just bear with it…”
The makeup artist held back her tears and squatted on the ground.
On the other side, the Assistant Director could not bear it anymore. He was a big man who kept rubbing his body, trying to warm himself up. It was very funny. It was different from the way he acted when he was bulling Arya just now.
Allen then decided to stop. “This is the standard of your production team. From now on, I will see who dares to use this team.”
“I helped Arya today. You all think twice about whether or not to say it out…”
After saying that, Allen left with Arya. The moment he turned around, Allen looked at those people, especially Assistant Director.
Assistant Director hurriedly lowered his head in fright. Only then did Allen withdraw his gaze.
Justin and Luna quickly followed.
The crew surrounded Assistant Director. “Are you okay?”
“I…” Assistant Director was frozen, but he could only swallow the pain. He did not expect Allen to be more ruthless than the rumors.
Kiara, you killed me this time!
She did not even investigate Arya’s background and let him take revenge for her?
Ignorant of death.
…
On the way back, Justin was driving the car. Luna was sitting in the passenger seat while Arya and Allen were in the back seat.
They were really a pair…
Allen’s face no longer had the anger from earlier, only worry and helplessness.
He carefully protected Arya, afraid that her feet would be cold. He rubbed his palms together to warm her up. Seeing Arya’s face slowly recover, he felt relieved. It was just that there were too many meaningful things hidden in his eyes. novelbin
“I’m fine now.” Arya was afraid that he would not believe her, so she said seriously.
Allen did not say anything. Arya continued to act coquettishly, “I have walked step by step until today. I am used to these things. I did not let them go, nor did I let myself suffer. Don’t worry.”
Allen turned his head coldly. The atmosphere was very oppressive.
Justin had to admit that Allen was far more powerful than he had imagined. The aura surrounding him was like an emperor.
His ruthlessness towards outsiders and his gentleness towards Arya formed a stark contrast.
As long as it was something he wanted to do, there was nothing he could not do. This kind of man was very compatible with Arya standing together.
“I will contact the director and the producer and ask them to find someone else to shoot…” Justin said.
“Change out Assistant Director and the camera man. As for clothing and makeup, you need your team to take care of it. I will pay for it.” Allen said coldly, “I remember there are people like this under the Aorai.”
“Yes, but the company has always asked them to follow Kiara and Violet. The company has tacitly agreed that they are their exclusive team.”
Luna blinked at the side. The big boss was actually so clear about the internal matters of Aorai. The Dahua was indeed very powerful…
“We want this team. If they dare to play tricks behind the scenes, they must bear the consequences.”
Justin thought for a moment. Could it be that Allen knew who was behind the scenes today?
Allen’s words were not a problem. After all, Arya was a contracted artist of the Aorai. Of course, she had the right to enjoy the resources of the Aorai. Otherwise, why would she sign the contract with the
Aorai? Furthermore, Kiara and Violet had not joined the production team recently. The team was on standby now. Of course, they could use it.
Arya looked at Allen’s slightly cold face and lowered her head.
She could feel that Allen was really angry this time. Because she ignored her body and forced to shoot, it made him worry.
Along the way, Arya did not say anything. She wanted to wait until they were alone before explaining to him properly. But when they returned to the hotel, Allen changed his coat and went out. He only said that he wanted to talk about something.
Chapter 186
After Justin returned to the hotel, he had been thinking about what had happened today. He felt that he had to get to the bottom of it, so he called Luna’s room.
“I knew you would call. What do you want to ask? Ask away.” Luna seemed to have waiting for his call for a long time.
“Is Allen serious about Arya? What is the relationship between them?”
Lovers? Or… bedmates?
“Of course, it’s serious. Ever since he got married, he has been very good to Arya.” Luna replied with a smile.
“Allen Jones got married?”
Justin did not expect Arya to endure the identity of his bedmate for love. That was why she was not willing to make their relationship public. After all, there were many actresses in the entertainment industry who had such a private life.
Luna coughed when she heard that.
“What are you thinking about? I mean they are husband and wife. The person who married Allen was Arya.” Luna paused for a moment, “I can understand why you would be surprised now. At first, I did not dare to believe it. I thought Arya could not stand the shock after breaking up with Daniel and randomly found someone to marry.”
“But the facts proved that Arya made the right choice.”
“Although their relationship has not been made public and is in a state of reclusive marriage, Allen really doted on Arya with all his heart.”
In the entertainment circle, who could be like Allen who could devote all of his heart to a woman with his identity?
In his heart, Justin silent hated his original thoughts.
Arya actually had such a partner…
“Justin, Arya has been walking all the way here. It’s really not easy. Now that you are her manager, these things can’t be hidden from you. But I just want to tell you to do your job well.”
Justin solemnly replied. “Don’t worry, I understand.”
Originally, he was worried that Arya would be hurt because of her relationship. But if it was Allen Jones…
Justin asked for Assistant Director and the camera man to be replaced, he also called the Aorai team to temporarily put aside the shooting. This matter was not spread out, so it should be Allen’s intention.
As long as he wanted to do it, there was nothing he could not do.
Arya had been waiting for Allen. She sat on the sofa in the hotel. When she heard the door open, she immediately stood up.
“Still not asleep?” Allen looked at the time and softened his tone.
“I am waiting for you. I want to explain to you.” Arya walked forward and gently held his hand. “I know you love me and don’t want to see me suffer, but it is the same for me. I want to use my own strength to stand by your side.”
“I know how you feel and also know that you will not let those who bully me go.”
“But Allen, there are some things that I want to do with my own hands. You can trust me, okay?”
Looking at her eyes and listening to her words, Allen couldn’t be angry anymore.
“I did not want to interfere with you, just…” His handsome face showed some defeat. In front of her, what should he do?
“Give me some more time.” Arya hugged Allen rested her head on his chest. “Seeing you help me vent my anger today, I also feel very carefree. Facing those people, it should be like this.”
“You.” Allen reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist. What should he do with this little girl?
Arya knew that he would not be angry anymore. She reached her hand and slowly unbuttoned his shirt.
“Hubby, don’t be angry…” Arya tiptoed and whispered in Allen’s arm. She was clearly seducing him.
Allen’s anger vanished with her seduction. He lowered his head and kissed her lips passionately as the both of them fell on the bed behind her.
…
Justin had been waiting for Melinda’s call after calling the company. He had arranged for Arya to finish filming as soon as possible. It would not be good for anyone if they did not have a good time with the crew.
After all, it was Assistant Director who caused trouble first and deliberately messed with Arya. novelbin
As for who was the one who instigated him from behind…
Late at night, Melinda took the initiative to call Justin. She tone was not good. “How did you do it? Why didn’t you tell me first when you called the team?”
“We really can’t do anything in the crew. Arya and Assistant Director…” Before Justin could finish his words, Melinda had already interrupted him.
“Justin, you know Kiara has been using the team all this time. Now that you suddenly transferred it away, how can I explain it?” Melinda sighed.
“That team is also on standby. It is only for a few days.”
“That won’t do! The company must have rules. I don’t want to see this happen again.” Melinda attitude was very firm.
Hearing this, Justin opened his mouth, “Melinda, your thoughts are hard to understand.”
Melinda also realized that her attitude was a little sharp. She quickly slowed down her tone. “Justin, I have no choice. Kiara is also someone I brought out by myself. I cannot forget my old self when I have a new person. I am also in a difficult position.”
Justin already had his own judgment and did not say anything more to Melinda.
After he hung up the phone, he carefully thought about Arya and Allen’s relationship and Arya’s past experience. From the moment she was exposed for Caroline’s audition, she had fought her way out of the encirclement. At that time, she had Allen’s shadow by her side.
Although no one had caught any traces of her, if it was not for Allen taking care of those people behind her, Arya would not easily shake off those rumors.
And after Aorai signed the contract with her, did they really give all the best resources to Arya according to the contract? After Melinda forced Maria away, he was afraid that Melinda already had other plans.
Borrowing Arya to let her return to the Aorai, she did not give up on Walter and let them form a stalemate.
It was really not easy for Melinda to bring the Aorai to this day, but for her to manipulate them like this, it made Justin very unhappy.
Who would be happy to be treated as a chess piece and toyed with by others?
He had only used the team that was on standby under the circumstances, but she had already lost her temper. What would happen if something else happened in the future?
The next morning, Justin received a phone call from Luna. She said that Allen had something to see him.
Justin went to the agreed restaurant. He saw Allen sitting there, he looked very cold and arrogant.
“Director Jones, are you looking for me?” Justin subconsciously lowered his head when facing Allen. He couldn’t figure it out himself. Perhaps this was the unique aura of Allen that intimidated him.
Allen went straight to the point. “You already know the relationship between Arya and me. Now is the time for you to make a decision.”
“What do you mean?”
“To Arya, the Aorai is just a transition. You should know what Melinda is planning in her heart.” Allen didn’t like beating around the bush. The reason he saw Justin today was to get things straight.
He wanted Justin to make his own choice. Was he going to be a person beside Arya or was he going to be Melinda’s chess piece?
Justin was different from Luna. If he could wholeheartedly help Arya, Allen had to make arrangements as soon as possible.
In this circle, friends and benefits were the same. However, Melinda was his good friend for many years. Justin could not answer Allen immediately.
“I need time to think about it.”
Chapter 187
Allen wasn’t in a hurry to ask for an answer. When Justin decided to think about it, he was already shaken.
Was the Aorai still the company he was familiar with?
“Does Arya know about Melinda’s thoughts?” Justin asked.
“What do you think?” Allen smiled meaningfully, then stood up and left.
Looking at his back, Justin fell into a deep thought. He had always been searching for Arya’s thoughts. Now he realized that Arya was the one who understood the situation the most.
After these things, Justin sincerely hoped that Arya could become an international superstar. Her ability was definitely worthy of that position. As for whether Melinda was using Arya, he could temporarily not consider it.
But this time, the filming called for the Aorai’s makeup team. This matter made Kiara ask about the process more than once.
“Director Carter, I will have a trip soon. Arya still does not intend to return the team to me?”
“I have already called to urge about this matter. Their side is also filming. After it is over, they will return the team to you immediately. It will definitely not affect you.” Melinda tried her best to stabilize her.
“Then I can only wait…” Kiara smiled and pretended not to care as she walked out of Melinda’s office.
She had already heard about Assistant Director. But who exactly was the man who appeared at the filming venue that day? No one dared to mention it. Assistant Director also stuttered to cover it up, so
Kiara only though that Arya used her connections to replace the staff, but so what if she participated in the shooting? After the later editing, how many scenes could there be left?
After the shooting of the guest role ended, Arya returned immediately.
On the way, Justin looked at the next trip in a daze.
“What’s wrong?” Luna asked.
“International renowned jewelry brand WM wants Arya to shoot promotional advertisement and become the spokesperson for their wedding ring series.” Justin calmly narrated.
“That’s a good thing. I’ve heard of this brand. It has a good influence.” Luna looked at Arya with a smile.
“What’s the problem?”
Arya knew that Justin was a cautious person. There was a reason why he was so anxious.
“Arya is only endorsing their wedding ring series this time. But next month, Kiara will become the spokesperson of their global series. That is to say… Kiara wants to use this method to show us that she is more powerful than Arya.”
She wanted to use this method to prove that Arya’s reputation was not big anymore. At most, she would just shoot a small advertisement and not be on the international stage.
Justin sighed and made a mark on his notes, “Otherwise, we will still give up…”
“No, I’ll take it.” Arya interrupted him.
But doing so was equivalent to giving the public a signal. That was, Arya’s influence was not as great as Kiara’s.
Justin wanted to stop her, but when he thought that the person behind Arya was Allen, then what was there to worry about? There was nothing that Dahua could not do!
In addition Allen’s protection and love for Arya, it was just an advertisement…
Arya did not consider this. She just really liked this brand.
After this incident at the film and television base, Allen closely followed Arya’s movements. After knowing that she would shoot WM advertisement, he had an idea.
“Find a way to contact the person in charge of WM. I want to meet them.” Allen said to his secretary.
“The president wants to order a ring?” Martin made a bold guess. After all, WITH ME was an internationally renowned brand of wedding rings. Even the British royal family would use their brand of rings as wedding rings. In the history of jewelry brands, this brand was unique and had a long history.
Especially the custom-made brand of their brands, it could be said to be unique in the world.
“Are you very curious?” Allen revealed a dangerous look.
“No, sir. I’ll do it right away.” Martin did not dare to say anything else. He quickly went to work.
However, the truth was that even if Allen had made the order, he would still not be able to do it. Unless he and Arya made a public relationship, Arya would not be able to wear the ring all the time.
On other side, Justin also brought Arya back to the Aorai to discuss the endorsement of this commercial with Melinda.
When they walked into the company, the employees they met all looked at them strangely.
Arya calmly passed by and did not take it to heart.
In the office, Melinda smiled and held a cup of coffee. “Arya, you have been wronged. I have already negotiated with that side and asked them to put an end to this kind of behavior!”
“Thank you Director Carter.” novelbin
“I hope it does not affect you mood to shoot advertisements for WM. The theme of this commercial is to focus on love lines. The male lead is Oliver Chen. I feel that it is very beneficial to you. You must seize this opportunity.”
Arya looked at her and did not say anything.
On the other hand, Justin was a little worried when he heard the name. “Oliver had a scandal with three female models last month. At the beginning of this month, he was filmed by paparazzi to go to a bar with an actress. His fame was stirred up by the scandal, right?”
“This is also one of his advantages. This is a good opportunity!” Melinda said with a smile.
“But Arya…”
Justin swallowed his words halfway. Some things that were said too clearly would make both of them unable to get off the stage. Melinda clearly knew that Arya had a lover and still wanted her to stir up a scandal.
Clearly, it made Arya feel troubled. Since when did the Aorai fall to using this kind of method to make people famous?
“All of this for Arya’s future. I have already sent someone to contact Oliver. We will meet at the Jade Pavilion Hotel at eight o’ clock tonight.”
Arya just quietly watched all of this as if she did not have any emotions. It seemed that she could only endure it, but Justin knew that Arya would definitely not accept the hye.
If she was willing to hype it up, she was already more famous than she was now.
She wouldn’t be interested in a platform like the Aorai.
“Director Carter, I prefer to prove myself with my acting skills.”
“Arya, that is too slow. I know you have the ability, but sometimes you use your skills to make things more beautiful. You only need to show up and meet Oliver. Leave the rest to us!” Melinda’s words made people unable to say what was wrong.
Arya’s eyes darkened slightly. She knew what Melinda meant.
“Since you are already an artist of Aorai, of course I will pave the best and fastest path for you. If you can use this method to earn enough popularity, why not use it?”
Melinda looked like she was trying to persuade her slowly but if Arya did not accept it, she might not show any mercy.
Justin suddenly intervened in their conversation, “Director Carter, I know you want to increase Arya’s popularity but Arya does not want this method to exchange for resources and popularity. Furthermore, I am Arya’s manager. Why do I not know about this matter?”
Melinda heard these words and her expression was complicated.
Since when did Justin start to consider Arya’s position?
Chapter 188
Melinda looked away.
She had trusted her companions for so many years. Why did he not help her under such circumstances?
“Alright, let’s stop here. Arya had worked hard all the way. Let’s go back and rest. There will be new work soon.”
Melinda smiled and looked at Arya. “Justin and I still have some things to talk about. Can you go back yourself?”
“Then I will go first.”
Arya gave a simple answer and got up cleanly and left.
She did not fight for anything for herself and of course did not intend to flatter her.
Justin watched her leave and sighed. Just as he was about to pick up the cup of coffee, Melinda opened her mouth. “You became Arya’s subordinate so quickly?”
The atmosphere of the office was different from past.
Melinda’s eyes also carried a bit of anger. “It’s only been a few days and you don’t take me seriously?”
Justin shook his head, stood up and looked straight to Melinda. “This matter is too hasty. Arya did not rely any rumors to promote herself. The reason she chose Aorai is because of the Aorai’s reputation.”
Melinda’s expression changed abruptly.
“Moreover, Arya clearly stated in the contract that she has her own choice. You also agreed at that time.”
“Arya’s path is already very difficult. We are on the same boat as her. Why do we need to do this?”
Melinda was unable to answer these questions. After a long time, she said with a muffled voice. “I know. You are already completely on Arya’s side.”
“This is not a question of who we are standing on. Didn’t we all hope that the artist is good and the Aorai is good?” Justin’s heart skipped a beat.
From a certain point of view, Melinda’s actions today had touched Arya’s bottom line.
This would be a crack, a hidden danger between them.
“After so many years, you also changed, didn’t you?”
Melinda knocked on the table in frustration. “I’ve already made an appointment with Oliver’s manager. How do we end this show?”
“I will settle it.” Justin could not let Arya do this kind of thing. He could not let Melinda go back on her words. Otherwise, if it went out, Aorai’s reputation would be affected.
Melinda’s expression eased a little, but she still looked at Justin with complicated expression.
“I don’t know if signing Arya down is right or wrong now.”
“I believe in Arya’s strength. As long as you don’t control her, she will make Aorai advance a step further.” Justin got up and wanted to leave. He did not want to continue.
Otherwise, he didn’t know what he would do.
These years, too many things had changed. Perhaps he and Melinda were not the same as past.
When Justin went to the parking lot, he saw Arya waiting for him.
“I have already told Director Carter that I will settle this matter. You can work at ease.”
“I made it difficult for you.”
“No. If you had done it once, you would have to done it again. The artist’s compromise will make the Brokerage Agency even worse. No one can predict what will happen after dinner.” Justin lowered his head. “That is not the path you should take.”
“Thank you for your understanding.” Arya heaved a sigh of relief. “I thought that Aorai is different from other companies. They would not force the artists to do anything dirty.”
“If it were you, Dahua would not force you do this.” Justin didn’t understand Arya, but she chose the most thorny path.
Arya smiled. How could she not understand the meaning behind his words?
“Right now, I am not qualified. I cannot go against Melinda. It will not benefit me.”
“Don’t worry. I will take care of this. It is manager’s job to deal with artists and companies. What you need to do is to put on a good show.”
Arya showed a gratified expression. “I really need to thank Melinda for letting you do my manager’s work.”
Justin smiled. “Go back and rest. When you have time to look WM’s information, I will take care of Oliver’s matter.”
After Arya left the Aorai, she walked towards Dahua and dialed Allen’s number.
“Are you busy?” The phone only answered after a while. Arya asked softly.
“Do you miss me a little?”
Arya pursed her lips. “Do you want to say that you are a little busy or do you want to ask if I miss you a little?”
“I am not busy. Where are you? I will go and find you.”
“Downstairs of Dahua.” Arya raised her head and looked in the direction of Allen’s office.
“Wait for me. I will go down immediately.”
Allen hung up the phone and said to the man sitting opposite to him. “Manager Ford, then this matter is settled.”
“No problem. The ring will be delivered to you on time at the appointment time. It is unique in the world. Your feelings will be conveyed to her without mistake.”
Allen turned to Martin and said. “I will go down first, and you will send it to Manager Ford later.”
“Okay, President.”
Allen quickly walked into the elevator. He did not want Arya to know about his surprise too early. novelbin
He saw Arya sitting on the coffee table on the first floor. She was elegant and comfortable.
A smile hung on his handsome face. He walked over and asked in a gentlemanly manner. “Can I sit here?”
Arya nodded when she heard the familiar voice. “Of course.”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
“It’s still early. Didn’t you say you were going to the company? It ended so early?” Allen felt that Arya’s expression was different from usual.
Arya was a little distressed. Under his careful observation, she could not hide her disappointment, so she told Allen about what happened in Aorai today.
“I feel that this matter is not as simple as it seems. Melinda and I have different attitude towards this matter, and it is the kind of disagreement that cannot be compromised. In addition, Kiara and Violet are in the middle, I am worried…”
Allen listened quietly and did not express any opinion. The current him was just an ordinary man who listened to his wife’s heart.
“I believe in your decision.”
What he gave was endless support and encouragement.
“You can choose not to do those things that you don’t want to do. The Aorai is just a stepping stone. Your ultimate goal isn’t it.”
“No matter what happens, I will do everything.”
“Don’t worry, and don’t be afraid, okay?”
Allen looked at Arya gently, his eyes full of concern and love.
“I am not afraid of anything with you here. I just feel that people really strange. The Melinda I knew back then was not like this. At that time, we were still standing on the same side. Now, we have changed.” Arya reached out and held Allen’s hand.
“Different sides, the way of doing things is also different. Some relations can’t be changed. For example, she is the president of Aorai and you are an artist of Aorai.”
“I understand.” Arya nodded firmly.
The next time Melinda treated her like this, she would not hesitate to make things difficult for the former. After all, everyone had their own principles of doing things and she did not want to force herself.
Chapter 189
At eight o’ clock that night, Justin arrive at Jade Pavilion Hotel as scheduled.
When Oliver walked in with his manager, he found that Justin was the only one.
Oliver was the most popular young man in the past two years. He became popular with idol dramas and lots of advertisements. With hos handsome appearance, he became a popular rising star. He was seen in many popular idols drams.
Melinda wanted to use Oliver’s fame to hype him up, but she had a reason.
However, she chose the wrong person.
“Where’s Arya?” Oliver’s manager asked.
Justin did not answer directly. Instead, he picked up his glass. “I’m really sorry. Arya was sick in the last movie. She is still in the hospital with an IV. There is no way she can be here. She specifically asked me to come and apologize to you.”
The manager immediately pulled a long face. “What kind of reason is this? What do you think our Oliver is?”
“Don’t misunderstand. Arya also really wants to see you. She has always been looking forward to this cooperation. Arya has seen all of the scenes you filmed. She even said that you are the most popular actor she wants to collaborate with…”
Justin explained with a smile.novelbin
“Does she really think so?” Oliver was still young and aggressive. When he heard these words, his expression eased up a lot.
“Of course!”
Oliver looked at Justin’s expression and said after a while. “Alright then. I just want to meet her before work and get to know each other. Since she is sick, then say hello to her on my behalf. Let’s go.”
Oliver put on his sunglasses and left.
When Justin saw the door close, he smiled coldly. With the information he had gathered, it seemed that Oliver was not someone easy to deal with. This matter could only be dealt with on account of face.
“Oliver, do you really believe that she is sick?” Oliver’s manager took two steps forwards and asked.
“Tsk, who would believe such an excuse?” Oliver took out his phone in an unruly manner. “She deliberately stood me up and randomly sent someone over to brush me off. Just think that she is sick. When the shooting starts, I will also treat her well once…”
“When the time comes, let’s see what will happen to her!”
“Without me, the important male lead, let’s see how she takes pictures.”
“But this director who’s in charge of shooting advertisement doesn’t seem to be easy to deal with.” The manager was a little worried. He knew Oliver’s temper. If things got out of hand, it wouldn’t be good for anyone.
“Just find a random hospital to get a certificate and say that I’m not in good health. You don’t even know how to do such a small thing?”
Oliver glanced at the manager. Although he had not been in the industry for long, he was very popular. No one dared to ignore him like this, not to mention that she was a female celebrity who had passed out.
“Okay, understand.” The manger took note of his words and followed behind him.
Oliver had been so arrogant for a day or two. His father’s company had hundreds of millions of assets. He often invested in movies and drams for his debut. Everyone in the industry knew that he would not make things different for Oliver.
Even if it was really Oliver who broke the contract, it was something that could be dealt with by paying a little money. To him, it was just a sentence.
But Arya… Every opportunity that she could get was not easy to come by.
That night, the lanterns were on.
Justin drove to the door of the villa according to the address Arya gave him.
Although he had imagined that Allen Jones’s mansion would be very luxurious, when he saw it, he was still shocked by the scene in front of him.
Arya walked down from the second floor in casual clothes. “Is it settled? They didn’t make things difficult for you, right?”
“They left after hearing my reasoning, but I don’t think it will end so easily. With Oliver’s current status in the entertainment circle, he will very likely take revenge.”
“In addition to Melinda’s side, we need to be careful.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Allen walk past Arya. He did not interfere in their conversation, but he was like Arya’s guardian, everywhere.
“You are so considerate of me. No wonder Melinda is anxious.” Arya smiled and looked up.
Justin did not answer Allen’s question, but now he seemed to have an answer.
“I’m just doing what I should do. If it was someone else, I would be the same.” Justin answered serious.
“I understand. I will not force you like Melinda.” This was Arya’s usual attitude.
Justin could not help looking at Allen who went into the kitchen. “When you were at home, does he cook?”
Obviously, he was shocked.
“I occasionally cook.” Arya smiled happily. “What I make is not as good as what he makes.”
Justin had a new impression of Allen when he saw such a good man who loved his wife.
“I won’t bother you guys anymore. I’m leaving now.” He didn’t want to stay and be a light bulb.
“There are some things that I normally do not do, but once I do, I will not show mercy. This time, I can understand Melinda’s thoughts. But if there is a next time, I won’t sit still and wait for death. And you know that I hold a grudge.”
Even if it was a former friend, Arya would not tolerate it endlessly.
If Melinda really wanted to use her, Arya would not be soft-hearted.
This was her style of doing things and attitude that would not change.
“Okay, I understand. You can rest assured and prepare to shoot the commercial.”
Justin said calmly and left the villa.
…
A day later, Arya entered the shooting team of the WM commercial. The location was set to be Lamia Manor in the southern suburbs.
The trip this time was not too far. Luna and Justin took care of her along the way, but Allen still followed after Arya left.
This Lamia Manor occupied a vast area. The interior decorations were all European style. There was also a cliff pool and a surf land. It was a famous wedding manor.
The moment Arya entered the filming team, she started to prepare and went straight into the dressing room.
“This time, Director Cole who is in charge of filming is famous for his strictness in the industry. His strength is extraordinary. It is a good opportunity to take a good picture!”
“Okay.”
Arya had heard of his name before. If she could cooperate with a capable director, she had to perform well.
“That Oliver hasn’t come yet. The makeup artist has been waiting for a long time.” Luna saw that Arya was putting on makeup and whispered. “He wouldn’t want to take revenge on us, would he?”
Luna was a little worried.
“Get ready first. Everything else has nothing to do with us.” Arya cooperated with the makeup artist and said casually.
“Yes, that’s right!” Luna took out an exquisite jewelry box from the side, “This is the jewelry you are going to wear today.”
She carefully opened it and showed the jewelry inside.
Arya only took a glance and was attracted by this set of jewelry.
She felt that the style was very simple and innovative. It was her favorite style. Originally, she liked WM’s jewelry very much.
“This set of jewelry is called the Kiss of True Love. It is said that there is only one set in the world. It has already been booked by a VIP customer.” WM’s person-in-charge walked in and explained to them.
Chapter 190
Arya’s eyes swept over the necklace and earrings and looked at the wedding rings.
WM’s manager smiled and picked it up for her. “This pair of wedding rings was especially custom-made for that guest’s wife. He said that only they know the meaning of this pair of rings.”
“This kind of unique carving technique can only be made by our company. Together with South African diamonds, the sincerity hidden in this pair of rings cannot be measured by price.”
Arya held it in her hand and looked at it. There were even letters carved into it.
The pattern was exactly the same as the one on her bracelet!
This could not be a coincidence. She took a deep breath and her hand trembled slightly as he picked up the card in the jewelry box.
“This can’t be…” Luna curiously moved closer. When she saw the words on the card, she was stunned. “He ordered this?”
God, this is too romantic!
The purple printed card only had simple words on it.
“May my heart accompany you for the rest of your life, AM.”
Arya’s eyes were strained with tears. She looked at the card for a long time and murmured in a low voice. “I have received your feelings.”
This was a lifetime promise.
Luna was also happy and moved for Arya at this time. Her marriage was not something a marriage certificate could prove. The two of them truly loved each other. Just as Luna was about to congratulate her, a figure walked into the dressing room.
Luna patted Arya’s shoulder. “Your male lead is here.”
It was not the male lead of a movie, but Arya’s exclusive male lead.
Listening to Luna’s words, Arya turned her head to look at the door.
Allen was wearing a handmade brown suit, revealing an especially intimidating temperament.
Luna quickly left with the makeup artist, leaving them alone.
Arya stood up from the chair. Her sweet feeling spread in her heart. “Why didn’t you tell me there was such a surprise?”
Allen took out a delicate red rose from behind and knelt on one knee in front of Arya. novelbin
“I’m sorry for letting you wait for too long. There are some things that I should have done a long time ago. In this life, my heart only belongs to you. This pair of rings is also my promise to you.”
“Our marriage is not for outsiders to see, but I also want to give you everything you deserve.”
Arya could not help but cover her eyes with tears. She helped Allen up and said emotionally. “Your love for me made me the happiest woman in the world. Marrying you is really good.”
Allen held her in his arms.
The two of them embraced each other and exchanged the rings. “This is not the ring you’re going to take a photo later. The ring that WM custom-made doesn’t seem to be related to the ring. Only when they’re put together will they be a pair.”
So even if Allen and Arya wore it together, there would not be any problems.
In addition, she was not the spokesperson of WM, so it was logical her to wear this brand’s jewelry.
“So beautiful…” Arya’s slander fingers were even prettier because of the ring’s decoration.
“You still have to shoot later. I’ll be leaving first.” Allen smiled gently. He kissed her gently on the back of her hand and walked out.
Seeing Allen leave, Luna returned to the dressing room.
“Looking at your happy face, I am really happy for you…” Luna was already moved to tears outside. She watched Arya walk all the way until today. She saw all the pain Arya had suffered.
“Now you guys are wearing the world’s unique wedding ring together. No matter where you are, you can remember each other and wait. One day your relationship will be made public and this pair of rings will also become the best souvenirs.”
Arya took off the ring and gave it to Luna to take care of it.
“Is it going to start?”
There was already the sound of staff preparing outside.
“Yes, everyone is ready, but Oliver is not here.” Luna felt that he did it a purpose.
“However, I don’t think he will succeed so easily today. Director Cole is not someone who will take it easy. If Oliver cause too much trouble, Director Cole will not tolerate it.”
Luna boldly guessed. “There is also possibility of changing the male lead on the spot.”
“But if Oliver was replaced, we would not be able to find a suitable male lead for the time being. The male actors that are selected are not particularly suitable.” Justin was a little worried.
“Really?”
Arya suddenly had a bold idea. Although she had not said it out loud, it was enough.
On the other side, Oliver was lying on the sofa in the villa watching TV and chewing gum in boredom.
He saw his manager run in anxiously and snorted impatiently. “What’s wrong now?”
“Oliver, are you really not going to shoot the WM commercial? I heard the director and Arya are ready. It’s not too late for us to go over now.” The manager tried to persuade Oliver in a low voice.
“No!”
Oliver frowned. He had a bad temper. “My dad used money to sponsor me to shoot commercials. I can go if I want to. No one can invite me, if I don’t want to! The last time Arya ignored me, I wanted to let her know that I am not someone she can afford to offend.”
“A small actress dares to throw her face at me. Who is she?”
“In this industry, without background and money, she still wants to be famous? In her dreams.”
“Oliver…” The manager wanted to persuade him, but when he saw Oliver’s face darkened, he did not dare to say anything. “I know. Then I will go and tell them.”
According to Oliver, the manager made up an excuse and told WM and Director Cole’s assistant that Oliver was indeed not feeling well and could not be present.
Director Cole’s time was also very tight. Today was especially free to work for WM, but he met such a big shot male lead.
“What do you mean? Do you still want to use such an uncultured actor? If you insist on waiting for him to arrive, I’ll leave.”
“Director Cole, Oliver’s father, CEO Chen, is…”
“I don’t care who his father is. This is a job that has already been signed. We have to follow the rules.”
Director Cole insisted. WM had no choice but to send someone to contact Oliver.
However, after Oliver knew what the director meant, not only was he not in hurry, he even smiled indifferently. “This old man doesn’t understand, so don’t blame me. I’m not going to this commercial today.”
“Find whoever you want, but I won’t accept his scenes in the future!”
“Alright then.” The manager really had no choice, but to follow his instructions. Oliver’s father’s assets were there. Who would dare to oppose the crown prince?
He was trembling with fear and said that Oliver was indeed not feeling well.
This time, Director Cole was angry. “I have never seen such a powerful star. Replace him!”
“But Director, there is really no suitable candidate for male artiste. Even if there is, we might not be able to start filming immediately if we make an appointment at the last minute. Why don’t we talk to Oliver again?”
“The WM department also values this shooting. If someone is sent here, they might not be satisfied.”
