“When you get married to Young Master Jewell, don’ t forget to invite us, ” the male lead also said
fawningly.
“Of course, ” Cindy looked up and smiled. No matter how Chester was in private, in the eyes of others,
she was the soon-to-be Mrs. Jewell which everyone was envious of.
In the small private lounge, the little assistant Leanne was complaining. “They’re going too far. How
could they give us such a small lounge? You’re still an A-list actress. In the past, you were the apple of
everyone’s eye.”
“Don’t say that. Many people would pay just to join Director Cheever’s crew, ” Eliza said faintly.
“But you didn’t want to join. It was the company who arranged for you to play the supporting female
role,” Leanne fumed. “The second female lead is purely to act as a foil to Cindy. Why should you be her
foil? She’s not as beautiful as you are and her acting skills aren’t as good as yours either. Why
don’t we stop acting in this film? Don’t suffer through this.”
Eliza smiled helplessly, “Is this considered suffering? Did you forget how everyone only rolled their
eyes at me when I wasn’t popular in the past? I even had to do my own makeup, and I stayed in small
hotels.”
Leanne gritted her teeth. “But your status is different now. There’s clearly someone trying to ostracise
you. You should have told Young Master Jewell earlier that you weren’t late on purpose. It’s because
the crew arranged for you to stay at the most remote hotel. It takes 4o minutes to get here by car, but
this morning, the car’s tire got punctured. We couldn’t get a taxi and had to walk all the way here.”
Eliza’s expression was helpless. How would she say it?
It was obvious that the person behind this was Cindy.
Most likely, Cindy became jealous after she saw how Eliza came out of the office with disheveled
clothes last time and found out that only Chester was inside.
Leanne continued to complain, “Also, no one in the crew called us to tell us that we had to get your
makeup done before arriving. No one came to do the makeup either. It’s baffling.”
“Go talk to the costume team later. Stop talking about it now. Someone’s coming.”
Eliza reminded her.
Soon, the stylist came in. After an hour, Eliza looked at the styling and frowned.
Leanne could not hold back any longer. “That style is horrendous. You’re making Eliza look old. It’s like
she’s a maid.”
The stylist was unhappy when she heard the words. “What does that mean? I studied this shape for
more than a month before coming up with it. You can’t blame me for that. The main problem is her
face.”
“Hah. Eliza has played in so many dramas and everyone on the Internet praises her for her beauty. It’s
your face that’s the problem, ” Leanne said angrily. “We’re not asking you to make her stunning, but
you can’t make her this ugly. You’ll affect her filming career in the future.”
“This film isn’t meant to portray how beautiful she is. She’s just the supporting female lead. If she’s too
beautiful, what about the heroine? Some actors deliberately dress up as ugly and sacrifice their image
in order to perform their roles. If Eliza can’t do that, then it won’t work. Why doesn’t she go play in an
idol drama instead?”
The stylist said with a cold face, “If you’re not satisfied with me, tell the director and get someone else.”
Then, she left straight away.
“This is driving me mad. They’re doing this on purpose. I’ll ask the other stylists if they can change it,”
Leanne went out.
Eliza looked at herself in the mirror quietly.
Then, she removed the hairpin, undid the bun on her head, and combed her hair back with the comb,
revealing her white and supple face.
After fixing her hair, she picked up the eyebrow pencil and drew crescent-shaped eyebrows. Her eyes
were like stars, and her lips were red and luscious.
After everything was done, she put down the lipstick.
When she turned around, she saw Chester standing at the door. The man’s figure was tall and
scholarly, but the smile on his handsome face looked slightly wicked.
