Theo wanted to reject Elaine’s invitation, but he remembered Mila’s words, so he nodded and followed her out for dinner.

At the filming site.

When it was time for lunch, the production team began to give out lunch boxes. Mila casually took a bento box and sat down with Laila and Rosy to eat. The food here couldn’t compare to the food at home, but it wasn’t bad either.

“Lili, where’s my lunch?” Natalie asked her assistant loudly.

“It’s in the car! I was afraid the food would turn cold, so I kept it in your thermal lunch box!” The assistant replied with a smile, afraid that Natalie would be unhappy.

Natalie nodded and walked towards her MPV. When she passed by Mila, she glanced at the latter with disdain. “How can you stand the food here? No wonder you can only play small roles after being in the entertainment industry for so long.”

Mila ate without looking up, completely ignoring Natalie. She didn’t have many scenes with Natalie, so she just had to bear with it. There was no need to argue with that woman.

Natalie appeared to be carefree and straightforward, but she was actually very narrow-minded. If anyone offended her, she would definitely find ways to make things difficult for them. However, with her personality, she wouldn’t be able to stay in the entertainment industry for long. Sooner or later, she would ruin herself.

After lunch, Mila returned to the dressing room to change her clothes and was given a new style. She sat on the set and waited for her scenes.

Suddenly, her cell phone vibrated. It was a message from Elaine. “Mila, Theo took me out for lunch.”

There was also a very happy emoji at the end.

Mila wrote, “It’s just a meal. Are you that happy?”

Elaine wrote, “Of course! It was the first time we ate alone. He even drove me home. Do you think he’s interested in me too?”

Through the screen, Mila could feel Elaine was so happy that she was about to jump up.

Mila wrote, “You’re already injured. Can he let you take a taxi home? No man would leave you behind. Let me remind you: his mind is filled with work, and he’s relatively indifferent when it comes to relationships. Don’t give him too much pressure.”

Her cousin had been outstanding since he was young. When he was in school, many girls were in love with him, but he didn’t like any of them. He even felt troubled. She was afraid if Elaine was too passionate, her cousin would be disgusted. When that happened, they would feel awkward meeting each other, let alone becoming a couple.

Of course, Mila hoped they could be together, but if her cousin didn’t like Elaine, she couldn’t force him. If they were forced, they would only be a pair of resentful couples.

Elaine’s passion made Mila a little worried.

In the afternoon, Director Zager decided to shoot Mila and George’s scene first. The two of them met for the first time at a banquet at the male lead’s house.

The filming location was a big villa with a retro feel. The lights at the banquet were bright, and men and women were drinking and chatting. Mila, who was wearing a peach-pink evening gown, pushed open the door and walked in, looking like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world.

She had a slender figure and exquisite curves. Her skin was as fair as snow, and her soft black curly hair draped over her shoulders. Her eyes were bright, and her lips were charming. She immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

“Miss Lydia is here.”

The character played by Mila was called Lydia. She was the daughter of a rich family who had lived an indulgent life. Many men were infatuated with her, but the male lead, Matthew, didn’t even look at her.

She was instantly interested in Matthew and took the initiative to ask him to dance.

Matthew, who was played by George, was wearing a custom-made suit. He looked elegant and handsome. He held Mila’s hand and entered the dance floor. The spotlight shone on the two of them. The peach-colored skirt swayed slowly with the dance steps. Everyone stopped breathing, afraid that they would disturb the dancing princess and prince.

“Cut! That’s a pass!” Director Zager clapped his hands and praised her with a smile. ” Mila, good job! You passed in one shot, and that’s not easy to achieve!”

Hearing Director Zager’s praise, Natalie glared at Mila unhappily. When she was filming in the morning, she was always called off by the director, but this small actress who was acting as the second female lead for the first time actually passed in one go. Natalie felt she had been humiliated.

Natalie was unhappy, and a vicious glint flashed across her eyes. If she was unhappy, Mila wouldn’t have had a good time either!

Natalie returned to the dressing room with a dark expression and dialed someone’s number. “Honey, you said I would become famous overnight, but the second female lead of the production team is stealing my spotlight. As the female lead, I don’t get any attention at all!

“We have to delete Mila’s scenes. She’s just the second female lead anyway. She’s not famous, and no one will care!”
