Trinity went up to look at Michelle seriously. "Michelle, this scene is a close-up shot, so we'll need your cooperation.

"Which means this take... will be a real hit."

"What!?" Michelle's face fell. She snickered after a while, "Hah, this is all the famous director Ms. Trinity Lulham knows? Why does it have to be a real hit?"

Trinity did her best to keep her cool. "I told you. It's a close-up shot. To have the best effect, it can only be a real hit. But don't worry, Millie's an experienced actress. She often had to do the same during filming last time. She knows how to control herself."

"As if!" Michelle glared at her. "Trinity, you're doing this on purpose, aren't you? Do I have to actually let the car run over me in an accident scene when I have to take a real hit in a slapping scene?"

Trinity was at a loss for words at that moment.

Back then...

Trinity promised Frederic she would treat Michelle well when the latter joined the crew. Frederic even bought her a meal because he was happy about it.

As for Trinity, she knew that she would be saddened to have that meal but went anyway. She was reluctant to miss any chance to spend time with him.

Frederic kept toasting her during the meal, and each sentence he spoke of was about Michelle. Trinity's eyes went red at the end, but she forced a smile and patted his shoulder. "No worries, I've got your back bro. Leave it to me!"

Trinity jolted and did her best to talk to Michelle calmly.

"Acting's never been easy. Millie's an award-winning actress, and she sometimes has to spend an entire day in cold water if the scene asks for it! Neil is the same. He doesn't use stand-ins in lots of action scenes and doesn't even make a sound when he's all bruised from the harness.

"Michelle, this is only a slap. Are you going to act so delicately? Besides, the main shot is on Millie. With her acting skill, this scene will pass in two takes, maximum!"

"You" Michelle was indignant.

She squinted, a vicious gleam flashing in her eyes as she wore a small smirk.

Michelle had been under the impression that her future was doomed when Zephyr boycotted her on the spot in the banquet last time, not expecting that Frederic would plead Trinity for her. What she had not expected further was that Trinity agreed to something absurd.

When her manager brought her the contract for the second lead of this film, it was only then she knew that sincerity was this useful.

Feelings were insignificant to Michelle, but it was fortunate that fools like Frederic and Trinity still existed in this world and would do anything for it!

Michelle sneered. She remembered that Frederic had mentioned he would come to visit today. Very well, she would love to see how Trinity broke down in front of her.

"Fine, we'll do it!" She spoke with a drawl. "But ask Millie to wear a glove and stuff some sponge in there so I won't be in pain."

Trinity looked at her in disbelief and nearly choked.

"Are you kidding me!? Millie's character is a feisty one in the script. How could she possibly hit someone wearing a glove!? Moreover, the background setting is the olden days. Millie doesn't even wear modern clothing!"

"So?" Michelle scoffed. "Can't you just change the script?"

"No one has ever behaved like you!"

"Well, you have one now!" Michelle said with entitlement, "I refuse to shoot if you don't make her wear a glove!"

"Michelle Carmichael!"

Unable to take it anymore, Trinity exploded. She grabbed the script on the table and slammed it down on the ground.

"Break off the contract if you don't want to shoot! My crew doesn't take unprofessional actors like you!"

When Trinity slammed the script, she accidentally hit a glass on the table, and it crashed with a clank, fragments flying everywhere.

The script nearly hit Michelle, and the glass shards landed around her feet, so she stumbled back with a cry.

At the same time, she caught a glimpse of someone by the door.

"Frederic?" Michelle called out with a sob instantly. "Are you here to see me?"
