Chapter 194 Brother Aldrich Pays A Visit
“I only have one assistant.”
Kristen explained. She did not like being surrounded by many people.
Anna was an all-rounder. Although she liked to report to Ethan, she had not made any mistakes so far. She was a qualified assistant.
“What?”
The disappointment on Aldrich’s face made Kristen even more certain that he was not here for anything good.
She still wanted to interrogate him, but Aldrich waved his hand and went back to his room.
The next day, when Kristen went out, she saw Aldrich standing next to Anna.
She was a little vigilant and asked, “Brother, are you going to the set with me?”
Aldrich answered frankly, “What’s wrong with visiting my sister’s filming set?”
“…”
In the car, Kristen approached him and asked, “Aldrich, what do you want?”
“To watch you shoot your film,” Aldrich said innocently. However, based on Kristen’s past experience, the more he acted like this, the more suspicious it was.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
When they arrived at the set, Anna led him to the rest area and sat down. When the crew saw Aldrich, they were a little confused and started to guess his identity.
Iszard kept looking at Aldrich. Then he could not help but come forward and ask softly, “Excuse me, are you, Aldrich?”
No way, someone here knows him?
Aldrich put on his mask and denied it directly. “No, you’ve got the wrong person.”
“How could I be wrong? I’m your fan.”
Iszard was a game enthusiast. And Aldrich was a professional game player.
Iszard fell for him in a competition, and from then on, he had become a loyal fan.
When Aldrich heard that, he had to admit, “I’m here to visit Kristen. I don’t want to be the center of attention.”
As a star, Iszard naturally understood this and hurriedly nodded. “Don’t worry, there aren’t many people here that are watching the competition, so they won’t recognize you.”
“…” Aldrich was speechless.
For a moment, he did not know if he should relax or sigh.
When Kristen returned with makeup on, she saw what was happening. She hurried over and saw the two of them playing a game.
Iszard was a little surprised when he saw Kristen walking over. “Miss Healey, you know Aldrich?”
Kristen nodded in acknowledgment but didn’t explain further.
Iszard also understood what he should and should not ask. After the game was over, he asked for an autograph and left.
“Aldrich, can’t you go and play by yourself?”
Kristen pouted and chased him away. Aldrich was a star of e-sports, and he had many male and female fans.
If he stayed here, he would be recognized sooner or later. She didn’t want to get into trouble.
“No, I just want to stay with you.” Aldrich insisted.
Kristen gritted her teeth and her phone vibrated.
She opened it and saw that it was a message from Ethan. “I am going to visit you at noon. What would you like to have for lunch?”
What she was most afraid of had come.
Kristen sighed and pressed the keyboard in resignation.
“There’s no need to come. I have plenty of scenes today. Anna has already ordered a takeaway meal.”
Ethan looked at the rejection message and put down his phone with a frown.
It was Kristen’s turn. The role of fourth female lead was the prettiest girl in the class. Because she liked the male lead, she was framed by the second female lead, and then was bullied.
Later, she was diagnosed with depression and was forced to drop out of school. It was an important drama. She exposed the hypocritical second female lead in front of everyone so that the male lead could know her real personality.
Kristen’s first scene was with Yvette. She wanted to put the female lead on the spot. It was a scene to highlight the female lead’s kindness.
As she stood there, everyone acknowledged her as the prettiest girl in school. She was very suitable for the role.
Just as they were saying the lines, Yvette suddenly reached out and slapped Kristen.
“Cut~ What’s going on?”
Mr. Gulliver screamed in anger. The script didn’t say that there would be a slap.
Rubbing her hands, Yvette awkwardly smiled. “Mr. Gulliver, I’m really sorry about this. I was too engrossed in my acting and felt that the female lead should slap her at this moment. I think the audience will be happy after seeing this.”
Mr. Gulliver said angrily, “Happy? You’re the female lead of a campus youth drama. Do you think you’re the female lead of the revenge drama? Start over.”
“What’s wrong with this woman?”
Aldrich gritted his teeth. Their younger sister, whom they were not even willing to speak loudly too, was slapped right before him.
Anna clenched her fists and said angrily, “She went too far. There is no slap in the script. Yvette did it on purpose.”
The makeup artist fixed her makeup and covered the palm print on her face, but Kristen still felt a burning pain.
In the second cut, Kristen swiftly stopped Yvette when she saw that the latter wanted to raise her hand again, and slapped her hard.
“He can only be mine. You’d better stay away from him.”
After that, she turned around and left. Mr. Gulliver immediately stopped filming.
Yvette covered her face and stomped her foot. “Mr. Gulliver, there’s no such thing in the script. She added this by herself!”
What did that mean? Was she the only one who could add scenes?
Kristen looked innocent. “Mr. Gulliver, in my opinion, if I slap her, it can better reflect the kindness of the female lead.”
Mr. Gulliver was famous for being difficult to convince. Just when they thought he would not agree, he agreed. “That’s it. Next one.”
“Mr. Gulliver?”
Yvette didn’t want to accept it, but Mr. Gulliver wasn’t willing to argue with her. He turned around and started discussing the next scene with Iszard.
Kristen returned to her seat and Anna quickly handed her an ice bag.
“Kristen, hurry up and apply the ice bag to your face. Don’t be swollen later.”
Aldrich looked at the handprint that could not be hidden by the powder. His eyes were full of anger. “What’s going on? Even if she needs to slap, shouldn’t it be fake? Why did she really slap your face?”
“It’s okay. It happens a lot while filming.”
Kristen comforted her. Aldrich gritted his teeth and said, “Kristen, we will support you if you like to be an actress, but we don’t want to see you being bullied in this industry. If you have the family to support you, there will be no one daring to hurt you.”
Aldrich was right. If Kristen’s identity as the daughter of Oliver was known to the world, not only would those people not dare to do anything, but even the directors would respect her.
But those were not what she wanted. Sometimes, she had to rely on Ethan, which was the biggest concession she had made.
She still wanted to rely on herself to become a front-line in the entertainment industry and win the title of a movie queen.
“Aldrich, it’s just a slap. I’m not that pretentious. You know, I don’t want to trouble our family.”
Kristen spoke softly, her eyes filled with pleading.
“All right, all right!”
Aldrich waved his hand impatiently. He sent a message to the group, while Kristen was busy shooting the next cut.
This was the Oliver family’s brother group, which was named Knights Templar. It was the group to protect their little princess.
Aldrich said, “I saw with my own eyes that our little sister was deliberately slapped by someone in the crew.”
Gavin asked, “Who did it?”
Aldrich: “Yvette, the female lead of Youth.”
Gavin, “I’ll check it out right away.”
Zeev, “Aldrich, don’t bother her.”
Aldrich said, “I almost couldn’t help it.”
Jorden: “It’s up to you. Help Kristen to revenge.”
Aldrich put down his phone and asked Anna beside him, “Anna, why didn’t Ethan Wharton come and visit us?”
Anna looked at him in surprise and then said confusedly, “Well, no matter how busy Mr. Wharton is, he will come every other day. Now It’s been two days.”
