Biting his lips, Clark looked at her coldly and said nothing.
With a smile, Rachel said, "Mr. Clark, I think I've already told you that don't bother me if there's nothing
important. You can leave now!"
Suddenly, Clark grabbed her hand, ignoring others' look and asked coldly, "Why did you accept
Chester's help?"
With her eyebrows frowned, Rachel said, "Nothing. He is just a friend."
With a sneer, Clark said, "As the boss, I have the right to manage my actress? You must report your
private life to me. You cannot damage the interests of the company."
Rachel flew into a rage and pulled her hand back.
"Mr. Clark, please behave yourself. I have nothing to do with Chester. He hired three bodyguards for
me. That's it! Why are you so angry? It's none of your business!"
Hearing with, Clark said, "As a female actress, you should pay attention to what you say and what you
do."
"What do you mean by that?" Rachel asked, confused.
"Dismiss all those male bodyguards, and I'll replace them with female bodyguards," Clark ordered
coldly.
Stunned by his words, Rachel asked, "Do you want me to fire these bodyguards? Are you crazy?"
"The female bodyguards will be there tomorrow." Without further explanation, Clark turned around and
left.
Michelle quickly came up and said to Rachel, "These three bodyguards..."
"What happened to Edgar and others?" Rachel asked quickly.
Bowing her head, Michelle continued, "They were fired by Mr. Clark."
Her words drove Rachel crazy. She exclaimed, "How unreasonable!"
She called Chester immediately, but before she said anything, Chester said, "Rachel, you don't have to
apologize. since you don't need them anymore, I will keep using them! Don't worry!"
When she heard the gentle voice of Chester, Rachel suddenly calmed down.
"I'm sorry. I didn't expect that Clark would do this," Rachel said with a guilty look on her face.
On the other side of the phone, Chester said casually, "It doesn't matter. He is your boss. He has his
own considerations. It's right to listen to him. He won't hurt you!"
It was not until now that Rachel felt relieved. "Please apologize to Edgar and others for me. I will invite
them to dinner another day as a compensation."
"You don't have to do that. They are not that mean," Chester replied with a smile.
"Then the contract they signed..." Rachel asked, hesitating.
"Tear them apart. Don't worry. I'll lend them to you whenever you need them," Chester said briskly.
After hanging up the phone, Rachel became more furious.
She had never wanted to get rid of Clark like she did now.
Clark was too overbearing. He not only didn't discuss with her about things, but also could change
anything she had decided. He didn't respect her!
Rachel went back to the dressing room angrily.
The conversation between her and Clark was overheard by people around them.
But at this moment, everyone pretended as if nothing had happened and just went to do what they
were supposed to do.
As soon as Rachel sat down, a sarcastic voice came from behind, "I thought Brother Clark came here
to tell you something good. But it turned out he came to teach you a lesson!"
Turning around, Rachel caught a glimpse of Nancy. The latter had a gloating look on her face.
"It's none of your business," Rachel responded casually.
Boris leaned his head towards Rachel and asked, "Sister Rachel, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Don't worry," Rachel replied casually.
But Arthur didn't say anything.
Two hours later, the make-up and shape of everyone were all done.
The first scene started to shoot in the afternoon. In this scene, the male leading role and the female
leading role met for the first time.
The heroine Rachel acted was called Alina Wang, and the hero Arthur acted was called William Liang.
Alina Wang worked part-time in the library and was the temporary librarian.
William Liang went to the library to look for documents for his thesis.
When Alina was cleaning up the bookshelf, she accidentally knocked it down. At this critical moment,
William happened to pass by and save her.
When Rachel stood on the chair to tidy up the shelf, Boris was stunned at the sight of her.
He didn't expect Rachel to be able to act like a librarian instantly.
All of a sudden, the bookshelf was collapsed and William happened to come over. He rushed forward
to hold the bookshelf.
Fortunately, it was the last bookshelf and it was directly fell to Alina, so it did not cause a big disaster.
But the books kept falling to Alina's head, hands and feet.
After the disaster, Alina covered her arm and squatted down with a miserable face.
Seeing that, William quickly squatted down and asked her, "Are you okay?"
Alina shook her head. William tried his best to put the bookshelf to its original position and return all the
books to their original places.
Then he helped Alina to stand up and said, "You'd better go to the hospital first. You might get hurt."
Alina raised her head and looked at him. She couldn't refuse his sincere care for her.
After thinking about it for a while, she finally nodded her head.
"Pass!" Director Charlie came over and praised, "You two are really good at acting. I can't even find
faults."
Lowering her head, Rachel said modestly, "Because Arthur's acting skill was so good that I was drawn
into the role."
However, Arthur praised her, "No, Rachel, you're excellent. We cooperated very well."
Director Charlie waved his hand and said, "Don't be humble, you two. You both are really good!"
Standing not far away, looking at everything, Nancy couldn't help but despise Rachel in her heart. "You
bitch, Rachel. Are you always flirting with every man? Humph! I won't let you get away with it!"
Then, Alina was sent to the hospital. The doctor said her arm was broken. So her arm was wrapped
with thick gauze and connected to her neck.
The doctor told her that she couldn't do any heavy work. Alina said, "I thought that I would work part-
time at school during winter vacation to save some money. If I cannot do heavy work, what about my
job in the library now?"
Hearing this, William suggested, "Why not allow me to do it for you? I have to go to the library every
day anyway. It's not a big deal for me as a man."
Alina's eyes lit up. She asked, "Really?"
William nodded.
So William helped Alina to do her job in the library after that. They began to work and eat together
every day. They were just like a normal couple in college.
Two weeks later, Alina's hand got better and could go back to work by herself. So she refused the help
of William and gave him salary during the past two weeks.
Seeing Alina being so stubborn, William had no choice but to accept the money from her.
At this time, the female supporting role appeared.
The character Nancy acted was called Claire Lin. She was William's good friend and they knew each
other from childhood. However, she also loved William.
As soon as she appeared, Claire rushed up to Alina and pushed her away.
"Who are you?" Claire asked Alina coldly.
Director Charlie couldn't help frowning at the sight of the hostility in Nancy's eyes.
"Stop!" Charlie said and came on the stage after that.
"Nancy, what's wrong with you? It's the first time you see Alina, but you are not sure the relationship
between her and William. How could you get angry so quickly? " Director Charlie looked at her with
suspicion.
Hearing that, Nancy was flustered. She explained in a hurry, "Director Charlie, Claire and Alina are
rivals in love, not to mention that she has been secretly in love with William for many years. Aren't she
angry at seeing him interact with other woman?"
Hearing this, director Charlie criticized, "Have you read the script carefully? At first, Claire is an
innocent little girl who trusts William very much. She becomes evil later in the play. But look at you. You
just behaved evilly without any explanation in the first place? What are you doing?"
