Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1464 Elizaâs calm, gentle voice sounded.
As she was speaking, Director Cheeverâs expression turned grimmer. If Eliza had not personally mentioned this, he would not have known that she had been staying alone in a hotel that was 30 kilometers away. Even the car that she used for traveling was a shabby Ford.
He also just found out that nobody from the production department had informed Eliza of anything regarding the shooting.
âIs everything she said true?â Director Cheever shifted his stern gaze to the production crew.
âHow could it be?â Leader Wells from the production department immediately stood up. â Yesterday, I asked a crew member to text her assistant. Clearly, she came late on purpose. How dare she lay the blame on us? She even said that she doesnât want to stay with Cindy, thatâs why I had to arrange for her to stay farther away. This place is remote, and there are only two good hotels here. â
âYou donât want to stay with me?â Cindy was astonished. âWhy? Is it because⦠youâre unhappy that Iâm the female lead of the movie?â
Eliza could not be bothered to look at her. Considering that she was pursuing a career as an actress, it would be exhausting for her to act in real life as well. âDirector Cheever, can we start now?â
At the sight of Elizaâs behavior, Director Cheever furrowed his brows. He honestly felt that she was willful.
He disliked having willful crew members as it was not easy to control them. âEliza, let me remind you that Iâve only passed two people on their first try so far. Donât be too full of yourself.â
Eliza smiled. âI have no choice but to prove myself with my ability because I really donât want to shoot in a makeup style that makes me look ugly and old- fashioned. Having said that, it shouldnât count if itâs not me who yells âcutâ.â
âOf course.â Director Cheever nodded and glanced at Cindy after that. âGet ready for the fifth scene.â
Cindy was stunned. âIsnât that supposed to take place at four oâclock in the afternoon?â
âLetâs make it more difficult for her,â Director Cheever replied nonchalantly.
Cindy was secretly pleased. She remembered that the fifth scene was the hardest of all in the movie.
The scene would have the supporting actress force the female lead into a corner and poison her.
The shooting began shortly after.
After âactionâ was called out, Eliza promptly opened her eyes and got into the mood to act. She held a bowl of medicine in her hand. Despite her pure and clean face, she exuded a sense of creepiness.
âSister, I came to visit youâ¦â Once Eliza started speaking, her voice sent a chill down everyoneâs spine.
âWhat are you trying to do?â Cindy panicked at the sight of the medicine she was holding.
âObviously, Iâm here to visit you. Since youâre so sick, you need to drink medicine. â Eliza reached out to Cindy as she approached her.
âDonât come over.â Cindy shuddered in fear and retreated to the side. âCome on, I guarantee that youâll no longer be in pain after you finish the medicine.â A mirthless smile spread across Elizaâs face. âYouâll no longer be in pain or jealous. Youâll go to a place where humans canât live, and itâs relaxing thereâ¦â
