Chapter 74 How Does the Aloof Director Jones Have a Considerate Side?
Arya received a call from Daniel as soon as she returned to the manor.
At first, she didn’t want to pick it up but after thinking about it, she decided to answer.
“Arya, Jason made it very clear this morning. He is the assistant director and since you failed to pass his stage, you don’t need to participate in the show anymore. I’ve already booked a flight for you to return home and have advised the company of your return. You will leave tomorrow morning.”
He spoke with relief as if a burden has been lifted.
“Why is he misunderstanding me? Did you not explain my previous works to him?” Arya snickered sarcastically.
“What is the point in explaining your previous work to him? We don’t know why he thinks that way. Anyway that’s the conclusion and everything has been organized. What are you waiting for? They only need one Asian actress now and that person is Caroline.” He had completely given up on Arya. Supporting Caroline is the only thing that mattered in his heart.
“Don’t be too full of yourself. I’m only doing what needs to be done. It doesn’t matter if you praise her or support her but don’t step on me.”
For so many years, wasn’t it enough they kept using me as a stepping stone?
As if Allen could read her mind, he walked over and reached out his hand to hold her hand gently, silently supporting her.
Daniel was blinded by fame and fortune. Ruthlessly crushing and taking advantage of Arya. Not even leaving a path for retreat!
“You’re really selfish. Your time in the spotlight have passed! What right do you have not to allow others to be popular? Choosing Caroline is the right choice. You’re not worthy of being my woman.”
Arya hung up the phone and took a few deep breaths to calm herself.
Allen stroked her back to comfort her.
“I guess I’m not as strong as I thought I was. I’m still disgusted that person.”
“It looks things went well?” Otherwise, Daniel wouldn’t have such a reaction.
“Yes, we met and talked a lot about the past. I’m very grateful for the opportunity.” Arya leaned on his shoulder naturally.
“It would’ve been perfect if you were by my side.”
Hearing her say that, Allen kissed her forehead, “There will be other opportunities.” © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Arya hummed softly in acknowledgement.
“Your feet must be tired after walking in heels all night. Here, I’ll massage your feet for you.”
He held one of her foot in his hands and massaged it to help her to relieve the tension. Then he massaged the other foot.
Arya saw the document on the table he just read and stretched out her hand to massage his temple.
“How does the aloof Director Jones have a considerate side?”
“Perhaps it’s because he has a gentle wife who needs his care and attention.”
Arya hugged Allen tightly, “I seem to be getting more and more inseparable from you.”
…
In the morning Arya received a call from Davina requesting her to be present at the company. She said someone from the directing team will be over to sign the contract.
It seemed like Davina did not know the latest situation and Arya didn’t enlighten her. It was obvious Davina wanted to humiliate her again but this time, all her effort would be failed.
Caroline’s pregnancy was still not known publically and it couldn’t be delayed for too long. She needed to finish filming here as soon as possible, then return home to prepare for the best actress nominations. Her path was bright and Arya would definitely be defeated.
The conference room was very quiet when Jason opened the door. His shoes made a steady sound as he walked over the table.
“Jason, you are here! We have prepared the contract for you. You don’t need to worry, our Caroline will definitely give an excellent performance.” Davina said as she welcomed him with a smile.
“According to what happened yesterday, we have taken into consideration and also decided to not let Arya participate in the show since she is not qualified.”
