Jasmine did guess right. Amanda had been gossiping with actresses in the same crew about her. It was at lunch time that Amanda sat with several actresses after Jasmine went back to her own room. "You know what, not only did Jasmine, the little bitch, get the role by riding on the director’s coattails, but she also wants to hook up with Edward!" She acted like she could not believe it.
"What?" Hearing this, Lily’s blood was got up, for Edward was her Mr. Mcdreamy. "Not to mention fooling around with the director, how dare this dirty bitch wants to hook up with Edward!"
"Ah, really? What a shameless woman!" A actress beside questioned.
"It is true. Only seeing her harassing Edward on the plane did I accuse her." Amanda sighed grievingly. "I didn’t expect that she would deny it, and say I insulted her and threw water over me."
"Sis, don’t be sad. We all won’t misunderstand you." Hearing this, Lily patted her on her back and comforted her. "You can’t let her go, sis."
Hearing this, Amanda smiled gratifiedly, and said, "I won’t let her go easily." The group of extras playing servants was exactly bought over by her. She was a rather well-known star, and those dare not turn her down out of their own future.
"Sis, next time she dare bully you, come to us, and I don’t believe a freshman could fight us all." Lily flattered Amanda.
"And us. Sis is so kind that you don’t deserve being bullied!" Other actresses echoed.
Seeing this, Amanda knew that she had got what she wanted, and nodded with satisfaction. Sometimes the jealousies of women were the most powerful weapons. They were all jealous of Jasmine’s position, and the compliments on her from the director and Edward. However, they were in a low position and had no power. Amanda was different, because she should have been the leading actress and hadn’t less advantages than Jasmine, coming out of nowhere. Now there were terrible sufferings that awaited the little bitch!
...
Director Liu stopped to talk to Jasmine immediately after she finished her part at night. "Jasmine, you are in good shape these days. Keep up the good work."
"Thank you, Director!" Said Jasmine. She wiped the sweat on her forehead, and didn’t expect that the director would think so highly of herself.
"Other actresses in the crew are all hard-working, and don’t fall behind." Said the director.
"Okay! I won’t let you down." Although she wondered why the director suddenly gave a compliment to other actresses, especially to Amanda and Lily, Jasmine still responded energetically.
"Well, take a rest. We will take it from here." The director waved his hand, as a hint that she was free to leave the studio.
"Yes, director." Finally, Jasmine could relax herself after a day of nervous tension. She planed to grab some late night snacks. She didn’t have a meal the whole afternoon because of Edward!
Looking at the back of Jasmine, it occured to the director that Amanda in the crew seemed often give Jasmine tit for tat. "Amanda’s performance skills are rather qualified, she is also rather well-known, but a little narrow-minded. She thought it is Jasmine who has robbed her of the leading role. Hope that Jasmine could realize her potential and perform better under the stimulus of Amanda." The director thought.
Jasmine was stopped by Brad after changing clothes and planing to grab some late night snacks at the hotel restaurant.
"Miss Shu, our president asked you to rehearse lines in his room." Said Brad.
"For what? I am starving." Jasmine was even impatient with Edward, not to mention his subordinate. She planed to walk out directly, however, Brad stopped in front of her all the time.
"Miss Shu, please don’t put me in a dilemma." Said Brad with a look that admitted to no denial.
Trying to walk away but failed, Jasmine had to go to Edward’s room with Brad. She thought it was exactly the cunning man’s excuse that rehearsing lines now.
After bringing Jasmine to Edward’s room, Brad silently closed the door and left. Entering the room, Jasmine saw Edward wearing a bathrobe, leaning on the bed, holding a thick script, and soaking himself in reading.
"Tut-tut, what a poser." Jasmine twitched her mouth disdainfully. This arrogant man, except for his handsome look and good performance skills, could do nothing but take advantage of her!
"You are so naughty." Edward put down the script, and pulled Jasmine into his arms. "I’m just asking you to rehearse lines with me. Why are you so impatient."
"I’m starving, and I don’t want to do it now!" Jasmine tried to get away from his arms but failed. She had to lie in his arms feebly.
"Let me call for a takeaway for you." Edward said, immediately called Brad and asked him to arrange it, and left Jasmine no chance to refuse him at all.
"Could you please let me go? You said you just wanted to rehearse the lines!" While Edward was making a phone call, Jasmine got away from his arms. "Let’s begin, and I’ll have some food after it."
"Haven’t you heard about rehearsing lines in moonlight?" Edward crossed his arms, and looked at her joyfully.
Hearing this, Jasmine was instantly speechless, and didn’t know how to cope with this brain-fade Edward.
Edward seemed rather satisfied with the look of Jasmine who was choked. Seeing her showing the white feather, he was touched and brought her down on bed.
Edward grasped her by the wrist and kissed her before Jasmine could speak. Her sweet spittle oozed between his lips and teeth, and her cherished fragrance lingered in his nose.
"Humph..." Jasmine was rather headache. Why would she be taken advantage by Edward as long as staying with him alone. If caught by others, whether they would accuse her of getting the role by riding on Edward’s coattails.
Noticing Jasmine spaced, Edward pinched the soft flesh on her waist on purpose. Jasmine was freak out and gave him a punch in his chest.
Edward supported himself on the bed and looked down at her. In the dim light, the wet eyes, the moist and full lips, and the white and slender neck made Edward can’t help swallowing. It was exactly his girl who was so attractive that he even tried to hid her.
"You have pretty eyes." Edward eyeballed Jasmine, lying on bed and allowing herself to be trampled upon, pretty hard. "No, so are your lips."
Looking at Edward’s eyes, Jasmine felt uncomfortable. "If having sex with him again tonight, how could I do my scenes tomorrow? And I’m still starving!" Jasmine thought and tried to get away from his arms.
"Humph." Edward constrained her in his arms tightly. "Trying to get away? No way."
Seeing Edward getting closer and closer, Jasmine felt sad. "Are we really going to rehearse lines in moonlight?" She thought.
