Chapter 638: Why Did You Suddenly Come Back?
Chapter 638: Why Did You Suddenly Come Back?
"What's going on? Whose blood is this? Are you hurt?" His voice was unexpectedly cold, making the nearby director shiver in fear.
His chubby face wore a servile smile as he tried to explain incoherently, "Master Glenn, it's like this. Just now, this actress was walking too slowly, and Miss Zamora accidentally bumped into her." "It's just an accident... You can ask Miss Zamora. I've been making sure the set is safe these days."
The actress who was just boasting in front of Kate a moment ago now appeared meek in front of Master Glenn.
Hunching her shoulders, her voice took on a sweet tone, sincerely apologizing, "Master Glenn, I'm sorry. It wasn't intentional."
Master Glenn's icy gaze fell upon her, chilling enough to frighten anyone present. The atmosphere became oppressively tense.
Then, Master Glenn's lips parted slightly as he commanded his assistant, "Get rid of her!"
"Yes, Master Glenn."
What?
Get rid of her?
She had just gotten her first opportunity to appear on screen. If Master Glenn blacklisted her, which director or producer would dare to use her in the future?
She had worked hard for ten years, studying diligently, learning ballet at the age of four just to get into the prestigious Onistead School of Drama.
Several roommates who weren't as attractive as her had already started getting roles because they were willing to do anything.
In this drama, she played a supporting role, with only ten scenes in total, and she had to sleep with a disgusting old man to secure the role.
If Master Glenn didn't allow her to continue filming, wouldn't all her efforts be in vain?NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
If she had known, she wouldn't have listened to the leading actress and offended Kate.
Now, she was trapped in a quagmire, while the leading actress sat comfortably in her chair, showing no concern.
The leading actress was the one who strategized, but when things went wrong, it was an insignificant figure like her to become the scapegoat. The entertainment industry was truly dark and ruthless. "Master Glenn, I'm truly sorry. It wasn't intentional."
"Miss Zamora, won't you say something for me? Didn't I try to help you up just now?" She apologized to Master Glenn while urging Kate to intercede on her behalf.
But this time, Kate wasn't that naive.
She had tried to help speak up for the actress in front of the director earlier, and in return, the actress not only showed no gratitude but also disclosed her affair with Glenn. "Sorry, I don't know what to say."
Kate's indifferent attitude made the actress realize she was finished.
Master Glenn ignored her apology and directly ordered his assistant to take her away, not wanting her to bother him anymore.
The assistant delivered a final blow, saying, "You don't need to defend yourself; we all heard what you said just now, Master Glenn included."
How dare she bully Miss Zamora? Who was she to challenge?
As she was mercilessly dragged away, she looked for help towards the lead actress, Cynthia, who was resting on set.
The latter sat arrogantly on a recliner, but when she saw Master Glenn approaching with Kate in his arms, she hastily went up to greet him. "Master Glenn, are you here to find me?"
Unexpectedly, she witnessed Master Glenn embracing Kate, giving her a gentle smile.
She had followed Master Glenn for so many years, never seeing this tender side of him.
Master Glenn's OCD is well-known, but at this moment, he used his handkerchief to wipe the dirty blood from that despicable woman, Kate.
Just as Cynthia was about to speak, Master Glenn warned her in a cold voice, his gaze sharp as arrows, piercing her heart.
"If you dare to play any tricks again, don't blame me for ruining you! I can make you a beloved leading lady, but I can also make you a despised street rat."
"Yes."
Cynthia trembled in fear due to Master Glenn's heartless attitude. "Master Glenn, I know I made a mistake."
In his mind, Master Glenn had
figured out how to deal with Cynthia.
He instructed his assistant, "After the completion of the 'Lady Elizabeth', terminate the contract. Cynthia will no longer be an actress in my company." en.s.net
Cynthia clenched her fists in anger. She couldn't believe how ruthless Master Glenn could be. How many times had she gave herself to other rich men for his sake? How many wealthy businessmen had she helped him win over? en.s.net
Now, Master Glenn wanted to abandon her like this?
His sudden appearance surprised Kate. Before she could react, the man held her horizontally.
He left in front of everyone, making a grand exit without even sparing a glance at Cynthia.
"Kate got injured. She will be taking a temporary leave today."
The director, still in shock from the sudden turn of events, suddenly heard Master Glenn's assistant announcing the leave right in front of him.
He didn't dare to utter a word of objection and repeatedly nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile, Master Glenn carried her all the way back to his luxury car and tossed her onto the passenger seat.
Off to the villa.
He had just returned from the airport and, knowing she was still filming, he had his assistant drive straight to the set.
There was a silence in the car. Kate attempted to break the tension between them.
In a weak voice, she asked him, "Didn't you say you would come back tomorrow? Why did you suddenly return today?"
Master Glenn gave her a cold glare,
his voice filled with disappointment.
"If I hadn't come back early, I
wouldn't have known that you're
dumb enough to allow yourself to be
bullied without fighting back."
Kate felt embarrassed, but she still tried to argue with him. "I'm not that dumb. I just didn't want to bother with them."
"If it happens again, remember to tell me so I can handle it."
Under his probing gaze, Kate finally nodded.
"Yeah."
Now, Master Glenn was finally satisfied. He freed up a hand and gently stroked her beautiful long hair. "Good girl."
It was like he was coaxing a child.
Kate was speechless and felt her face blushing with embarrassment. Why did it feel so flirtatious when Master Glenn said she was a good girl?
After about half an hour, the luxury car stopped in front of the villa.
Kate took the initiative to grab his briefcase and leaned against his arm, playfully rubbing against him. "Master Glenn, how about having hot pot tonight?"
Just this morning, she had ordered hot pot for Cheyenne.
Cheyenne had even sent a group photo of herself enjoying hot pot with her brother Eddie, looking carefree and content. Kate felt angered that her brother had been to Onistead without calling her once. If it were any other time, if she coquettishly asked like this, Master Glenn would have easily agreed.
But not today.
Her nose had just bled, and hot pot is hot and fiery. If she got any more heated, her nose would have a harder time recovering.
"No, you're an actress, don't you know that hot pot is a big no-no? The broth, sugar... You'll get fat!"
"Oh... then I won't eat it."
When she saved enough money, she wouldn't be an actress anymore. If she couldn't even eat hot pot, she wouldn't be happy at all!
