Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 542

Trinity met Cordelia's eyes and smiled, perking herself up.

"Get ready." She picked up the walkie-talkie and kept a serious gaze on the screen. "Action!"

"B*tch!" When the camera zoomed into Millie, the award-winning actress did not disappoint. She raised her arm and slapped Michelle!

Michelle gasped and held her cheek automatically, seeing stars from the pain.

Millie's hair was disheveled, and the buttons of her collar popped. She was living her character-a feisty woman. She pointed at Michelle and scolded vehemently, "SI*t! How dare you snatch my man!? Look at yourself first!"

Millie somehow felt what she said. She was engrossed, imagining herself to be Trinity as she glared at Michelle.

"Good, wonderful!" The assistant director instructed from the side, "Watch your emotions. Hmm... give me more! Yes, camera zoom in... Continue with the lines!"

"Get up now! Fight back! Hah, pretending to be weak in front of me? It might work on the men but not me!

"I'm going to kill you today!"

Millie was excellent with her lines. Her expressions and movements hit the nail on the head as well. The scene was smoothly concluded.

"Nice one!" Trinity finally wore a pleased smile.

With the scene over, the rock weighing her down was put aside as well. She swiftly forgot about the discord earlier and brightly got ready for the next scene.

Michelle was no longer involved after the scene. She was pale with cold hands and feet as she trembled from Millie's slap. When she moved aside, she kept a vicious gaze on Cordelia and Trinity.

Millie was feeling amazing. With her shawl draped over her, she sashayed past Michelle, not forgetting to roll her eyes in disdain.

The set went back to its order. Trinity was fully concentrated on work while the other actors worked well together.

Michelle was the only one looking at Frederic with wet eyes as if she had suffered some immeasurable grievance.

Frederic frowned and hesitated, but he made his way to Trinity.

"Can I talk to you in private?"

There was a pause before Trinity nodded.

They went to a restroom not too far from the set.

"This is for Michelle, isn't it?" Trinity asked Frederic directly.

Even though her hands were sweating from her nerves, she fought to speak first. "It's not that I want it that way, but she doesn't have the professionalism required of an actor. There are many more scenes after this. Some require them to roll about in the sand, and some others to fall off the stairs...

"If she keeps this up, I'll consider switching her out!"

"Trinity..." Frederic spoke hesitantly.

He met her bright, determined eyes. Her expression was one of resolution, but a wryness tugged the corners of her lips.

Frederic felt his heart jot suddenly, like a stone causing ripples when it was tossed into the lake.

The ripples vanished soon after, though.

"Don't worry. I know what's work and personal. I won't ask you of anything because of her." Frederic smiled. "It's just... I have something to pass to you."

Trinity paused. "What is it?"

Frederic pulled a small charm out of his pocket. It was red with beautiful embroidery on it.

"I have a client who is relatively superstitious. Before going to court last week, I went to the church with him to calm him down. I saw this and thought that it's quite rare." Trinity's heart skipped a beat. She clutched the charm, not daring to look up into his eyes.

"I hope it brings you good luck!" Frederic said softly, "I also hope that the film's a hit and you'll win another award!"

Trinity smiled with a lowered head. The fog that clouded her earlier was all gone. As long as he turned back for a glance at her, she felt that the whole world was bright and sunny.
