Chapter 172
Love Is Fair
Chapter 172 Did She Do Something Bad? The hospital was not very far from the set, and when Hailey arrived, Dorian was walking out of the ward on crutches. His agent Nicole Campbell and his assistants were trying to stop him, but they failed. Jeremy stood behind Dorian with a black school bag on his back. He knew he couldnât stop him, so he just held him carefully to prevent him from falling. The moment Hailey appeared, it quieted down and everyone greeted her happily. âMs. Newman!â Hailey walked over, followed by several men in black who looked like they were coming to fight. âHailey,â
Jeremy called out to her, afraid she would beat Dorian. Hailey really wanted to beat Dorian for getting out of bed, but Jeremy calmed her down. She looked Dorian up and down. âYou can walk? Looks like youâre recovering well.â Dorian could tell that she was taunting him. He pursed his lips. âMs. Newman, I donât want to quit the crew or give up the role of Richard.â He sounded polite, but he was actually blaming Hailey for recasting him without his permission. He wouldnât have known heâd been replaced by Henric if Jamie hadnât called him early in the morning to tell him he was coming to Diverous and playing Timothy. Jeremy pulled his sleeve to stop him from speaking to Hailey in such a tone. No matter what, Hailey had cured his leg. Jeremy believed Hailey had her own reasons. Hailey just said flatly, âYou want to go back to the set now? Fine, backflip here and Iâll let you go.â It went quiet again.
Dorian couldnât even stay steady. How could he possibly backflip? But he handed his crutches directly to Jeremy. âTake them.â He was really going to backflip. Jeremy stopped him anxiously. âStop!â Hailey shook her head helplessly and turned to ask Jeremy, âWhy is your brother so stubborn?â Jeremy held Dorian from behind. âHeâs been like this since he was a kid.â Seeing that Jeremy couldnât stop Dorian, Hailey waved and had her bodyguards carry Dorian back to the ward. After five minutes, it quieted down, Hailey briefly told the whole story and Nicole finally understood. âSo you didnât want Dorian to quit the crew but Henric to quit on his own accord?â. Hailey said faintly, âYes. I hate such mean people.
He hurt Dorian. How can I spare him?â Dorian looked up at Hailey, embarrassed that he had just said that to her. His ears turned red. âMs. Newman, Iâm sorry I misunderstood you.â Hailey said, âI didnât tell you because itâs going to be fixed soon. You just concentrate on getting better. But it doesnât matter.â
She turned to Nicole and said, âNow you can reveal that Dorian was injured on the set and that he was replaced. As for the reason, thereâs no rush to reveal it.â Nicole said worriedly, âBut Iâm afraid some fans will blame you and call you names.â âI donât care. It will only be for a few days. When the truth comes out, theyâll know the real culprit.â Jeremy just listened to them. He didnât know anything about the entertainment industry, but he knew what Hailey was trying to do. She was so smart. Jamie received the news and flew to Diverous that afternoon. He was chattering but funny. He went to the set first to meet the director, put on makeup, and acted in two scenes. He had read Dorianâs script and Timothy was like him, so Dion kept him and shot the scenes that Henric had shot before. In the evening, he took time to visit Dorian at Diverous Hospital. Jeremy cooked dinner in the kitchenette.
Hailey came to the hospital in the evening to check on Dorianâs leg and stayed to have dinner with them. jamie arrived just in time and joined them. When Hailey blamed him for telling Dorian about it, Jamie said pitifully, âI didnât know you had such a great plan.â
Everyone was amused by him. Dorian was concerned about the movie and Henric and Jamie answered his questions. âI donât think Dion is in any hurry. The big scenes are almost done. I shot two scenes with Henric today. He was out not himself and failed a dozen times. His acting was a little awkward and the whole crew said he wasnât as good as you.â Dorian was a little frustrated. Henric had been taken care of him like a big brother. He trusted him, so he was defenseless to him, but he set him up. Jamie muttered, âYouâre too naive. When I first entered the entertainment industry, my aunt told me to protect myself. There are so many people who are jealous of you. You should be more careful.â
Hailey teased Jamie, âArenât you jealous?â âWhy? Heâs not as good-looking as me.â Jamie was confident in his looks and he muttered, âIâm not short of money anyway. I just want to act. A good friend of mine told me that the more popular the actor, the tougher the situation. What do you think, Dorian?â
Dorian was speechless.
+ 20 Jeremy gave Jamie a thumbs up. âGood point.â Hailey was amused, but the smile froze on her face as she walked out of the ward and saw the familiar figure. Before she could ask Owen what he was doing here, a beautiful woman beside him quickly approached and handed her a business card.
âHello, Ms. Newman, Iâm Nate Marson, the design director of Mazedew Jewelry. I came to see you as soon as I was told you were Master Jade. Iâm a big fan of yoursâ¦â Nate was thrilled. She respectfully asked, âWould you please work with me?â Hailey took the card and looked up just in time to see Owen looking at her. There was an ambiguous and suspicious look in his eyes as if she had done something bad.
