Although the party was not pleasant, it ended anyway.
Clark then sent Rachel back.
On their way to her place, Clark who had not said anything finally said, "Don't stay with those sinister
people. You are no match for them."
Hearing this, Rachel couldn't believe her ears and asked, "What do you mean? Why are you restricted
my right of making friends?"
Clark pressed his lips and didn't say a word.
Obviously, he didn't want to quarrel with her.
"I can't be close to this kind of person, and I can't speak to that kind of person. If that is the case, can I
still have a friend in the entertainment industry?" Rachel was really angry with Clark. Although he had
nothing to do with her and he was only her boss, he always ordered her not to do this and that.
She was a human, not a puppet.
"Friendship in the entertainment circle is very fragile." Just when she thought that he didn't want to talk,
Clark said coldly, "And you should listen to my advice."
Rachel, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned away and said, "I don't want to fight with you."
Then, she was in the state of refusing to communicate.
Until he sent her back downstairs of her building, Rachel did not say a word.
Without saying goodbye to him, Rachel carried her handbag and angrily walked towards home.
Watching her back disappear at the corner, and until the light in her house turned on, Clark started the
car and drove away.
When Rachel returned home, Eva saw the anger on her face and couldn't help but be curious. "Miss,
who made you angry?"
"It's Mr. Clark, the CEO of your company. He's gone too far," said Rachel angrily.
Eva's eyes widened. "He's gone to the party too?"
"That's right," said Rachel, nodding her head. "I didn't know he has invested in this movie until he
showed up! I shouldn't have taken the movie if I knew that."
Eva quickly sat down beside her and said, "Actually, Mr. Clark did it for his own reasons. Think about it,
business is profit oriented. You've got good marks in TV series and movies before. Now that your
prospect is so good, it's normal that Mr. Clark invested the movie whose leading actress is you."
Besides, maybe he did it to protect you! Now that he has invested in this movie, he will have an excuse
to visit you. Because he is not only an investor but also your boss! Everyone knows that you are his
actress, so naturally they won't make things difficult for you."
Eva's analysis convinced Rachel.
She actually knew that the reason she was so successful with her career in the entertainment industry
was because of Clark. But now, she was angry about him and cursed him behind his back. It was her
fault. She should not have done that.
Thinking of this, Rachel felt guilty and sighed, saying, "Never mind. I misunderstood him. Maybe he just
wanted to remind me out of good will."
The next day, Rachel came to the crew with a group of people.
There was no doubt that they saw Clark sitting next to Bob and they seemed to be talking about
something, without noticing the arrival of Rachel.
Michelle was excited to see Clark, she said, "Rachel, look, Mr. Clark is here to escort you!"
Standing behind them, Mindy watched all this in silence.
At this time, Michelle Li came, seeing that Rachel was staring at the director Bob blankly. She couldn't
help but laughed, "Rachel, what are you looking at? Go and get yourself ready for the makeup."
Only then did Rachel recover from the shock. She was dragged into the dressing room by Michelle.
Hearing the voice, Clark turned around and only saw the back of Rachel.
Both Michelle and Mindy nodded to him and greeted.
Michelle Li held Rachel's hand with great passion and asked, "Rachel, tell me the truth. How is your
relationship with Mr. Clark?"
"Not bad. What's wrong?" Rachel asked, puzzled.
"Do you know how many actors in our crew are trying to seduce Mr. Clark?" she whispered in her ear.
"Really?" Although she knew there were some hidden rules in the entertainment circle, it was her first
time to hear an actress was willing to take the initiative to do that.
Seeing the astonishment on Rachel's face, Michelle Li continued to say, "If you are interested in Mr.
Clark, why not hold him tight? You don't want to be snatched by other women."
Rachel couldn't help but laugh. She shook her head and said, "You really misunderstood me. The
relationship between me and Mr. Clark is nothing but about work.
What's more, Mr. Clark has a fiancee and her fiancee is about to give birth soon. How can other
women have the chance to get her position?"
Michelle was surprised. "Does Mr. Clark really have a fiancee? Is he really going to be a father?"
"Yes, that's what we all know," said Rachel with a nod.
A slice of disappointment flashed through Michelle's eyes, but soon was covered by her well.
"But," she changed the subject and continued, "Men are more likely to have an affair when their wives
are pregnant, not to mention that the woman next to Mr. Clark is just his fiancee and hasn't been
officially married yet."
Rachel shrugged and said, "I'm not interested in it at all."
Michelle Li added a few more comforting and encouraging words and got up to leave.
Of course, Rachel knew, but Michelle Li was trying to probe into the relationship between Clark and
her.
However, she was not that stupid. Michelle tried to provoke her by a few words? That was impossible!
However, Rachel knew very well that in the entertainment circle, it was not uncommon for female starts
to compete with others using all kinds of tricks. What Michelle did just now was nothing.
In the morning, there was no shooting for Rachel, but only for Liam and other male stars.
The opening was a scene of war. The leading actor led a group of soldiers to attack the enemies.
Even though Liam was young, he had been shooting a lot of war movies. So it was a piece of cake for
him to get the start part of the movie in such a short time.
In the afternoon, it was Rachel's scene.
Now she was wearing a low-key hat, a pair of embroidered shoes and a set of cloth clothes, but she
still looked beautiful and eye-catching in the crowd.
She was so stunning no matter what kind of clothes she wore.
She walked in a hurry and covered her mouth with her scarf. She walked through the streets in the cold
wind and finally came to an old and shabby gate.
Rachel turned around and sharply looked around, with extreme vigilance and uneasiness in her eyes.
Then she knocked on the door twice and then another twice and one last time.
With a creaking sound, the heavy door was opened. Then a woman stretched out her arm and dragged
Rachel in!
She was still in a state of shock. When she realized what happened, the door was closed quickly.
"How is it going? Is there any news over there?" a plain-looking tall woman said as she put her arm
around Rachel's shoulder.
"Yes." Rachel showed her the paper in her hand. The woman took the paper from her hand, glanced at
her, and opened the paper to have a look.
The expression on her face began to change slowly. She was surprised, confused, and in the end, her
eyes fell on Rachel.
Not knowing what was written on the paper, Rachel was a little bit nervous and quickly said, "No one
noticed me when I came."
The woman still looked at her without saying anything.
"I haven't seen the content writing on this piece of paper." said Rachel immediately.
The woman handed the note to her and said coldly, "Our head...... Our head had been sacrificed. We
need to select our new captain."
"Sacrificed?" With shock written all over her face, Rachel stared at this tall woman in disbelief.
However, the woman's expression was still very cold. "In order to strive for peaceful life, one must pay
blood and life. Dying in this era is nothing at all! To live is the hardest thing!"
Stunned and shocked, Rachel did not know what to say. What her comrade said totally shocked her.
