Chapter 802 - 127: One More Time

"You must be Miss Adams, right?" Jeremy asked Christina, reaching out his hand.

He had investigated the supporting actress of the movie. Besides, she looked close to Drake, so he could tell her identity.

Christina, however, looked at Jeremy's hand but wasn't ready to shake hands with him. To her, Jeremy was just a newcomer with no background and not worthy of her friendship. 

Jeremy felt a little awkward. While he was about to withdraw his hand, he saw a pair of clear eyes.

Angelo held Jeremy's hand. Then she put on a smile and gently said to Drake, "Excuse us, Mr. Thorne, we have to prepare for the shooting."

After that, she held Jeremy to leave.

Looking at their back, Drake clenched his fists, and his face darkened.

Christina didn't know what was going on between Angeline and Jeremy, but she didn't care about that. She raised to look at Drake with dependence on her face.

"Shall we go, Drake?" she asked.

Drake wasn't used to getting angry with others, so he nodded and withdrew his arm.

Christina felt a little disappointed.

Drake didn't usually wipe her hands down, and all his changes were formed during the time she wasn't here.

In other words, it was all because of Angeline that Drake changed his attitude towards her. Ivy was right, she thought, Angeline shouldn't be with Drake.

"Come in, Miss Adams."

One employee's voice interrupted Christina's thinking. She looked up only to find that Drake had walked far.

She trotted up and gently held Drake's hand.

"Why don't you wait for me, Drake?" she complained in a low voice.

Drake, however, felt more irritated when he heard Christina. He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Christina's tone before. But now, it made him feel sick.

He withdrew his hand and paced up his steps. Christina was stunned at first but then understood something.

She stomped but didn't follow up again. Instead, she went to her dressing room.

When Angelo entered the shooting spot, she let go of Jeremy's hand and smiled.

"Well, I just wanted to help you."

Jeremy knew what she meant. He nodded and fondled Angelo's head.

"Thank you."

Angelo was less resistant to Jeremy's move and took out the script to read.

Just then, Drake entered and happened to see Jeremy touching Angeline's hair. He was so upset that even his aura became cold.

Sensing the change of the atmosphere, Angelo raised her head and then saw Drake's cold eyes.

She hurried to lower her head but couldn't help looking at the back of Drake. Christina wasn't there. She felt delighted.

"Don't you need to read your script?" asked Drake indifferently.

Angelo stayed and looked up. She then found that Drake wasn't talking to her. She was puzzled. She didn't know Drake liked to meddle other's business.

"I read the script last night, Mr. Thorne," answered Jeremy with a proper smile.

"Then let's start shooting now," said Drake and looked at Clarence.

Clarence showed a helpless expression and looked at Angelo, seeming to ask for her advice.

Angelo nodded. She had read the script, and now she just went over it.

"Prepare yourself first. I'll send someone to call Miss Adams here," said Clarence, who was about to ask an employee to call Christina when she came over.

"I'm prepared, Mr. Wilson. We can start now," she said with a smile.

She had heard their talk in the dressing room, which was why she appeared so soon.

"All right. Let's start."

Then the actors stood at their own spot. The scene they were about to shoot was that the drunken heroine met the supporting heroine and had a conflict with her.

Angelo was dressed in red, holding a wine cup, and crossing her leg. Then she raised the cup and drank the wine down.

At this point, Christina, who was wearing a white dress, entered the bar. She looked at Angelo with a fierce look in her eyes.

"You're that bitch. I'll kill you."

With that, she grabbed a bottle from the table.

"Cut!" said Clarence suddenly.

"Christina, you have to pick up the bottle quickly, looking malicious, understand?"

He came to show the moves to Christina, who just nodded casually and glanced at Angelo.

"All right. One more time."

Then, Angelo repeated the acting just now. To make it look real, they had refilled her cup.

"Cut!"

When the camera turned to Christina, Clarence called to stop again. Then he walked to Christina and said, "Christina, your eyes should look fierce. You did great just now. Let's do it again. Watch your moves and eyes, okay?"

Christina showed an okay sign to Clarence. The shooting repeated, but there was something wrong with Christina at a detail.

"Cut!" said Clarence and then pointed out the problem of Christina.

They tried it again but brought another "cut." Things like this happened again and again, and Angelo drank drinks one after another.

Until she saw the provocative eyes of Christina, she came to understand that Christina did that against her.

"Christina, pay attention to the details. Let's finish the scene once, all right?" said Clarence, forcing a smile.

He seemed to understand something and was quite angry. But still, he held his anger.

"All right, Mr. Wilson. Don't worry. I'll make it work," promised Christina.

This time, just as she said, she did it perfectly, so it finally passed.

But this cup of drinks had become the last straw on Angelo. After the shooting, she covered her mouth and quickly ran to the bathroom to vomit.

Jeremy was worried when he heard the sound of water in the bathroom.

Suddenly, Drake said, "Don't waste others' time if you don't know how to act."

Everyone knew who he was talking to. They all looked at Christina.

Sensing the gaze from the crowd, Christina was annoyed. Drake had never said such mean words to her.

Just then, Angelo came out of the bathroom. She couldn't walk steadily, looking quite weak.

Drake was worried. When he was about to ask about her, Jeremy had run to her. He supported her and gently asked, "Are you all right?"
