Chapter 17 A Date At Night
People heard the voice and turned to look at the person who spoke, only to see a handsome man standing in front of them and staring at Nancy with a spurious smile.
Seeing the man who helped her out was the popular star, Bill Song, Rachel was a little surprised.
Nancy furrowed her eyebrows. Normally, Bill Song was not talkative in the filming site and didn't like to meddle in other people's business. But now he......
"What did you mean by saying that, Bill?"
With his hands crossed in front of his chest, Bill Song said in a casual voice, "You didn't hold your coffee cup tight and poured it on yourself on purpose. And then you set her up. How dare you play such a stupid trick in public?"
Rachel was in surprise, thinking, 'He seemed to be sleeping just now? How could he know so clearly?'
Nancy's face went red with anger, and trembled all over. "Do you have a crush on my assistant? I tried to teach my assistant a lesson. It's none of your business."
Bill Song didn't answer her question, but he just squinted at her coldly, saying, "Nancy, your assistant is also a human, not a personal object. You cannot do whatever you want!"
"You!" After saying one word, Nancy did not know how to continue.
What they didn't know was that some busybodies had secretly taken a video of this scene and uploaded it on the Internet.
Just as Rachel was about to tell Bill Song not to get involved in the fight between her and Nancy, she heard some neat footsteps behind her.
Everyone's attention was attracted to the newcomer.
Rachel turned her head and saw a handsome and elegant man walking towards her.
A group of bodyguards followed him. They were all wearing sunglasses and new suits, which made them look powerful.
"Oh, my God! It's Clark Ji!"
"He is more handsome than what I saw from the news!"
The crowd began to make all sorts of exclamations.
Even Nancy was enthralled by the scene, completely forgetting the displeasure just now.
As soon as he appeared, Clark became the focus of the place, crushing the limelight of the popular male star, Bill Song.
He heard what Bill said to Nancy, and his eyes darkened.
Under the gaze of so many people, Clark walked up to Rachel and gave her a delicate box. With a calm expression on his face, he said, "Cell phone."
Surprised, Rachel took the box from his hand and opened it. There was a new cell phone with red case inside.
"A new phone you bought for me?" Stunned, Rachel stared at Clark. She did not believe that Clark came to find her just to give her a phone.
"Yes," Clark answered shortly.
At this time, director Zhang saw Clark coming, he hurriedly came up to him and respectfully said, "Mr. Clark, why didn't you tell me that you are coming, so that I could welcome you in person..."
Clark cast a cold glance at director Zhang and said, "Director Zhang, I don't know why you recruit these many idlers using the money I invested."
As soon as he finished his words, Clark stared at Nancy for a few seconds.
Nancy suddenly shivered.
Director Zhang immediately understood what Clark meant. He lowered his head and said, "You are right, Mr. Clark. Now I have to change the atmosphere here!"
After director Zhang left, Clark turned to Rachel and said, "I'll come to pick you up and take you to dinner after work."
Stunned, Rachel nodded and watched him leave.
When Rachel came to her senses and was about to say thanks to Bill Song, she saw him turn around and leave.
Rachel opened her mouth but she said nothing at last. She thought she should thank him in person next time!
The crowd dispersed.
Nancy stared at the brand-new cellphone in Rachel's hand, eyes full of jealousy.
"Haw haw," Nancy said, full of jealousy in her tone. "When did you become so arrogant? How could you let the inheritor of the Ji family send you a mobile phone?"
With a faint smile, Rachel said, "If you really have the ability, you can ask him to give you phone."
"You!" Nancy was rendered speechless.
Nancy thought about it, and then smiled. "How much is your phone? Clark invested this play for me, and I know it's invaluable!"
Rachel gave a cold smile and did not want to talk to Nancy any more.
Thinking of this, Nancy felt much better and smiled smugly.
But her smile didn't last long. A staff ran over and handed the script to Nancy, stating, "This is the new script. The content has changed. Read it carefully!" Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
With doubts, Nancy opened the script and murmured, "Haven't I just got the new script? Why is it being changed again?"
Nancy opened the script and read it. Her face turned gloomier, and she flipped the pages faster and faster!
Standing next to her, Rachel looked at her strangely.
Nancy threw the script on the floor angrily and asked the person who handed her the script just now, "What does director Zhang mean?"
The person answered in a cool voice, "Director Zhang asked me to tell you that your scenes are cut down a bit because of the story line. He hopes you can keep a good mood and continue to act well."
"My scenes are cut down a bit? The truth is, more than half of my scenes are cut down, okay?" Nancy could not control her temper. She started to yell at the staff.
Stunned, Rachel stared at her. She couldn't believe that director Zhang cut down most of Nancy's scenes because of what Clark just said. To Nancy, it was like killing her!
The staff cast a cold glance at Nancy, saying, :Director Zhang also said that if you didn't want to act, he would find someone to replace you at any time!"
Nancy was furious!
How could she easily give up the role she had worked hard to get?
She forced herself to calm down, took a deep breath and said to that staff, "I'm sorry. Please tell director Zhang that I'll try my best to finish the remaining scenes!"
"Why didn't you take such attitude earlier?" After finishing these words, the worker turned around and left.
As soon as he left, Nancy turned angrily at Rachel. "It's all your fault! You are such a jinx! If it weren't for you, how could my scenes be reduced?"
With a cold smile, Rachel said, "You've got yourself into trouble. How can you blame it on me?"
Nancy opened her mouth and was about to scold Rachel, but she stopped when she saw the people around looking at her with strange eyes. Thinking of how Bill Song treated her a moment ago, she held back her anger.
She couldn't ruin her image. Otherwise, if someone took a video and spread out to others, how could she continue to stay in the entertainment industry in the future?
After work, Rachel just walked out of the filming site and saw Clark's car parking by the road.
She walked to the car in a hurry. Seeing her, Clark got off the car and opened the door of the passenger seat for her.
She blushed and said in a low voice, "Thank you."
After Rachel getting into the car, Clark closed the door for her and sat on the driver's seat again.
Noticing that she hadn't fastened her seat belt yet, Clark got close to her again, reached out and fastened it for her carefully.
With a strong and masculine smell coming into her nostril, Rachel's heart beat faster.
Although they had intimate contact before, it was the first time she had been so close to him since last time.
Thinking of what happened that night, Rachel's face was a little hot. She turned around with embarrassment, watching the scenery outside the car backing away and trying to divert her attention.
"Where do you want to go for dinner?" Clark asked in an indifferent voice.
Hearing Clark's question, Rachel turned her head quickly to him but lowered her head soon in order to avoid eye contact with him. "It's up to you."
"Okay." Clark then focused on driving.
There was no communication between them all the way.
Clark led Rachel to a fancy restaurant and said indifferently, "I hope you like Chinese food."
Standing at the door of the restaurant, Rachel was surprised when she saw the signboard of the restaurant - "TDK Restaurant". She thought, 'Why Clark takes me to such an expensive restaurant?'
