“Well... But I still prefer the river crabs in China, especially when they were made as liquor-saturated
crab. Although a lot of people dislike it as it’s kind of brutal to eat them raw, I do like its special taste.”
Elaine bit on the leg of the hairy crab, recalling how she ate the river crab in the past.
“If you like it, I’ll ask the kitchen to prepare it later.” However, he would make sure that the river crabs
would be the best ones, which would be aired to France with a chef. Every step would be strictly
watched to guarantee food safety. They could be not picky on other things, but the food was an
exception. Emmett was afraid of food safety back in China.
“Emmett, it’s so nice of you. I’m so afraid that you’ll spoil me,” Elaine said coquettishly and sweetly,
pouting.
...
Emmett also smiled. “That’s what I want. You’ll be too spoiled to leave me. No one could snatch you
away.”
Elaine blushed instantly. Bad-bear Smith was way too gay. He always took every chance to sweet talk
to her. Then they would make love gradually while talking.
She decided to continue eating the crab legs obediently.
Emmett was way too smart. Seeing that she blushed, he could read her mind. With an evil smile, he
said ambiguously, “Elaine, hurry up and finish eating. I’m also hungry...”
Elaine blushed more deeply. She knew that Bad-bear Smith had an evil intention -- it turned out that he
wanted to have sex with her after she got full.
She decided to slow down eating, making him starved.
...
With a cigarette between his lips, Kayden made the whole room smoky. One of his subordinates
passed him the cell phone and reported, “Excuse me, Mr. Kayden. I got some news from Venice. The
man you left over there last time wanted to speak to you.”
“Okay. Give it to me.”
Kayden grabbed the phone and asked rudely, “What’s up?”
“Mr.Kayden, Miss Jones took the initiative to let a man rape her. What should I do?”
“What? Ellie is raped?” Kayden bounced up immediately and roared in anger, “Who the fuck dares to
touch my woman? Did he have a death wish?”
“No. No. It’s the raping scene that Miss Jones is shooting...” His subordinate dared not to utter a sound
on the other end of the line.
“That can’t happen in shooting either! Who is the bastard to touch her? Go cut him into pieces!”
Kayden’s eyes almost burst into flames.
“But... that man is the British model that you want us to keep an eye on...”
“What? It’s him?” Kayden paused a bit and then continued to yell, “He can’t do it, either! Watch the
filming set for me. You can’t let that brat touch Ellie. I’ll go to Venice right now.”
“But... But Miss Jones...” Before the subordinate finished his words, the phone was hung up.
Put away the phone, Kayden ordered, “I’ll go to Venice. Keep an eye on here for me. I’ll come back
pretty soon!”
“Yes, Mr. Kayden!”
Kayden swept his clothes, reading to go out. Then he recalled something. “If Mr. Smith asked about me
later, just tell him that I’ve gone to Venice. You should protect him.”
“I got it, Mr. Kayden.”
In Venice, Ellie’s raping scene finally passed after being shot twenty-seven times.
Nico asked his assistant to carry a whole box of mineral water into the restroom. He stayed there for a
long while. When he came out, Ellie noticed that the whole area around his lips was reddish.
‘What the hell? You just kissed me, didn’t you? Why did you have to sterilize your lips? I’m willing to let
you kiss me because I like you. You just don’t know chalk from cheese!’ she thought to herself.
Ellie stomped unhappily. She could clearly tell how reluctant Nico was when kissing her just now as if
she carried some virus. Except for the few times of pause, they had to shot again and again because
he wasn’t cooperative.
The direct frowned quite deeply. Looking at Nico’s face, he talked to the makeup artist for a moment,
and then he helplessly announced that the shootings for the leading roles ended today. He would
continue shooting other scenes. They would start shooting at four o’clock the next day.
After the leading roles had left, the director was ready to shoot the scenes for the supporting roles.
However, the second leading actress used to be the leading role, Saniyah. She directly asked the
director for leave as she didn’t feel well suddenly.
The director had to wave his hand helplessly to let her go. He could understand that Saniyah was not
happy. After all, he had promised to give her the leading role and acted with Nico. In order to become
the leading actress, Saniyah had tried her best to please the director on the bed for several evenings.
However, right before the shooting, the leading actress was assigned to Ellie, who couldn’t be
compared to Saniyah in every aspect. If the director were Saniyah, he would also be quite annoyed.
However, the director felt bitter. Ellie turned out to have Kayden as her backer, so he had to accept her.
He wondered what kind of relationship was between this girl and Kayden, as the latter called the scene
in person.
‘Is she Kayden’s woman?’ the director thought to himself in surprise. After a while, he shook his head
to deny this guess.
Kayden had experienced a lot of things. He should have seen all kinds of women. The director didn’t
think he would be so hardcore to like Ellie.
However, much to his surprise, the hardcore Kayden had been on the way from France and he was
quite angry.
...
Another day passed.
At ten to four in the morning, Ellie’s minivan arrived at the filming set.
Five minutes later, she saw Nico’s minivan arriving as well.
Ellie wanted to take the chance. She walked to Nico elegantly. When brushing past each other, she
enchantingly tossed her hair. She believed that no man would be able to resist her action.
Nico seemed to come to his senses. He smiled faintly and greeted her, “Morning, Miss Jones.”
“Morning, Nico. Did you have a good sleep last night? I kept thinking about today’s shooting and recited
the scripts for a whole night. Look at my dark circles.” Ellie pouted, and her tone was quite pitiful.
Nico kept gentle and polite. “I heard that putting the potato slices on your eyes could help you get rid of
the dark circles. You may have a try.”
“For real? Okay. I’ll try it tonight,” said Ellie in surprise. However, inwardly, she thought in disdain, “Gee,
if the potato works, why would women buy those famous branded skin-care products?”
Nico had been in the entertainment circle for many years. He could tell from true of false roughly. In the
beginning, he thought that Ellie was an enthusiastic and lively girl. However, after getting along with her
in the past two days, he realized that she was quite vain and scheming as if she was planning
something secretly all the time. He couldn’t like such a kind of woman at all.
However, most people in the entertainment business were quite hypocritical, and so was he. Hence, he
didn’t think he had any right to criticize others.
“Ellie,” Nico said gently, “Later when shooting for the kiss, let’s do the dislocation shooting as well. In
case the same thing happened as yesterday, it would impact the shooting progress.”
Ellie blinked. “How could it be the same as yesterday? We didn’t have the experience yesterday. Now
we’re familiar with it. I’m sure we don’t need to re-shoot today.”
Nico was in a dilemma. Taking a deep breath, he continued, “This should be your first movie and there
are a lot of erotic scenes. I’m afraid the media will make a hubbub about you. If there was a scandal, it
would be quite difficult for you to maintain a pure and innocent actress.”
“Oh, Nico, it turns out you are afraid to be involved in a scandal with me,” said Ellie with a smile. She
didn’t agree with him about her style was pure and innocent. She’d rather be a seductive woman.
The director started to gather everyone. Nico walked over and Ellie followed him naturally. “Do you
have a girlfriend, Nico? You are afraid that she’ll misunderstand so you don’t like the kissing scene.”
“No, I don’t. I just felt a bit awkward.” Nico blushed a bit. His blue eyes twinkled, just like the stars in the
evening sky, looking so charming.
Ellie couldn’t help praising him inwardly, ‘Jesus! This man is so charming. He’s handsome and
adorable. He could be overbearing and innocent. What an excellent man!’ Covering her hammering
chest, she felt as if her heart would jump out.
Nico paused his pace, turned around, and said shyly, “Besides, I believe kissing should happen
between two persons in love. The movie I played in were all about men, so I seldom had scenes with
the female leading role. Hence, yesterday, the kissing scene turned to be my...”
“Was it your first kiss?” Ellie’s eyes lit up in excitement. If so, she would be so lucky.
“Of course not,” Nico answered dully.
Ellie burst into laughter. “It must be your first kiss on the screen, then. I’m so lucky!”
She said the last sentence in Chinese, which Nico couldn’t understand much. Hence, he got confused.
Ellie walked in front of Nico happily. While walking, she couldn’t help laughing. Nico was way too
hilarious, just like a youngster who had just got into society as he looked so shy. When Ellie was in
elementary school, she dared to kiss a boy forcibly. She had never been shy in her whole life.
Nico looked extremely handsome but was so innocent. Ellie clicked her tongue secretly. She had
become more interested in him, wondering how it would feel when having sex with him. She heard that
the western men’s sizes were not small at all. She couldn’t stop drooling for it.
...
“Ellie, it’s your scene next. Hurry up and get prepared,” the director yelled at her.
“Okay. I’ll get ready.” Ellie hurriedly trotted to the dressing room to put on the costume.
On the other side.
“Nico, please check this.” After passing the shoot, the director called Nico to watch from the machine,
showing him the shoot just now.
“Too eye-catching.” Nico just watched a third of it and found the problem.
“Exactly.” The director nodded. “Saniyah is truly good at acting, but as you know, Ellie is the female
leading role for this movie. You are smart. You should know what to do next. I need to re-shoot this
scene.”
Saniyah acted in a way too eye-catching way, so she would steal the show from the leading actress. If
stealing the show wasn’t a problem, as long as the support role acted well, it would also be a benefit for
the movie. However, this movie was shot because the sponsor wanted to make Ellie popular. As the
supporting role, Saniyah must know what she should do. Unfortunately, she only wanted to show off
herself and get attention. She had forgotten the rules of the game in the entertainment business.
Nico nodded, knowing what he needed to do next. When re-shooting, he would try to stand in front of
Saniyah.
Although what he would do might be hated, he was the male leading role. It would be better for him to
do it rather than to let the female leading role do it.
He also realized that the director would try his best to make Ellie popular this time. ‘Ellie isn’t famous at
all. Suddenly she became the female leading role of this big-budget movie. She must have a strong
backer,” Nico thought to himself.
Following the address that his subordinate provided, Kayden drove to the filming set.
In Venice next to the grand canal, there was a temporary filming studio, in which the shooting was
carried on.
There was a lot of equipment in the studio. The light was so bright as the daytime. The breeze on the
water brought an irresistible coolness.
Smoking, Kayden got off the car, walking to the filming set alone.
