Chapter 31 I Will Not Yield
By the time Mary woke up, it was already the morning of the next day. She had had nightmares for the entire night. When she woke up, cold sweat had already soaked her pillow. She got up from the bed and charged her phone that had run out of battery, then went to the bathroom to wash up. She still had a vague impression of what had happened last night.
She had been locked up in an empty lounge on the set.
Her phone had been out of battery and everywhere was dark. When she was in despair, she saw William… Beyond that, she couldn’t remember anything. The image of the man appearing in front of her like a god appeared before her eyes. Thinking of last night’s William, Mary’s face couldn’t help but start to heat up, and her heart inexplicably started to beat faster. Suddenly, the phone rang outside, pulling her thoughts back to reality. The woman rushed out to answer the phone. It was a call from Anne.
“Mary, why didn’t you answer the call?”
“Something big has happened!” Mary wiped her face with a towel and frowned. “What can make you call me so early in the morning?” “Alice posted your filming picture with Raymond on the Internet!”
“Now the whole Internet is denouncing you, saying that you are trying to seduce Raymond!” Mary was stunned.
Anne’s anxious voice on the other side of the line was still ringing, “Alice pixelated your face and said that she would leave you some face, which made the netizens more curious about you!”
“Now, someone has analyzed it based on the costume you are wearing As Sherry’s substitute, your identity is being exposed!” Every sentence of Anne was like a heavy hammer that smashed into Mary’s heart
She bit her lips tightly and opened Alice’s Weibo. The first one was the one Anne had told her about. “I know that my boyfriend is very good, but I don’t want such things to happen again in the future. (I left some face for that little actor, so I pixelate her. If she does this again next time, I won’t be polite.)” The video below this paragraph was the scene where Raymond had torn the wound on her shoulder and she couldn’t stand and fell down! At the end of the video was her face of grievance and anger after Alice slapped her. The netizens on Weibo were excited. Everyone was scolding this shameless person who had tried to seduce Raymond! Some people even began to shout for Sherry to hand over this shameless stunt double.
Looking at the news online, Mary felt a chill in her heart.
She thought that Alice and Raymond had just wanted to lock her up. But it turned out that locking her up was just an insignificant part of their plan. Not only did they want her to collapse, but they also wanted her to be unable to continue living in this circle. They wanted to step on her and continue to hype up their relationship. They obviously wanted to use her as a stepping stone! Mary gritted her teeth. She still underestimated Alice and Raymond. It turned out that Alice had gone to the dressing room yesterday not just to threaten her, but to confirm the location of her wound. So that Raymond could precisely hit the target. His hand was very strong, directly tearing the wound that had just healed.
When she could not stand up from the pain, Raymond took the opportunity to hug her so that Alice could come over to slap her again.. Mary felt her head swell.
It turned out that every detail had been planned by them.
“What should we do?” “Mary, why don’t you go and have a good talk with them?” Anne asked anxiously over the phone. “The two of them are in the limelight right now. We are just small stunt doubles. We can’t beat them.”
“I don’t want to go.” Mary closed her eyes.
They did this because they wanted her to beg them, right? Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Yesterday afternoon, she had refused Raymond’s request for her to give Alice guidance. And at night, they had planned how to fix her.
“But…”
Anne pursed her lips, “Mary, if this matter doesn’t settle down, you might not even be able to be a stunt double in the future…”
“Back in our class, you were the one with the most outstanding grades. Everyone thought that you would become the best actress…” “In the end, for the sake of Raymond, you…”
Anne choked on her words. “I won’t give in.” Taking a deep breath, Mary looked at herself in the mirror with a smile. “At most, I will quit this line of work.”
After hanging up the phone with Anne, Mary lay on the bed to browse the news.
Almost everyone on the Internet was scolding her, calling her a shameless third party
Looking at these insults, Mary actually did not feel much pain in her heart.
Because she knew that the one who was really shameless and a third
party was not her. Not long after, her phone rang again. It was Film City’s supervisor who called her.
“Mary, you are really becoming more and more promising! You dare to offend anyone!”
“Film City’s Boss Taylor already knows you. He just called me to see you in person!” “The big boss will personally expel you! This time, even the gods will not be able to protect you. Prepare to pack up and go home!” After saying these words, the supervisor directly hung up the phone. What should come still came. Mary sighed, changed her clothes, and went downstairs. In the living room downstairs, Steve was
holding a computer and quietly tapping the keyboard. Hearing her coming downstairs, the little fellow looked up at her indifferently. “Does your shoulder still hurt?” The woman was stunned and didn’t understand what he meant.
Steve sighed and turned the laptop screen to show her.
It was the video that Alice had sent.
“That man did it on purpose.”
“Does it hurt a lot?” he asked, turning his head around.
Mary felt a warmth in her heart. She smiled and rubbed the little fellow’s head. “It doesn’t hurt anymore,” she said.
“Your mommy is very good.” Steve pouted, “Even if you are powerful, you are still afraid of the darkness.” Mary: “…” She coughed lightly and turned around to look around. “Why is it only you? Where is James?”
“Him?” Steve shrugged, “Daddy punished him to play chess with Grandpa for a day.” “Why did he punish him?” The little guy raised his head and stared at Mary with his big black eyes. There was a maturity in his eyes that did not match his age. “He laughed at Mr. Notman for not being able to let you have a sister.” Mary: “…”
She blushed so much that she didn’t even dare to look at Steve again. She ran away with her handbag. The supervisor said that Boss Taylor was waiting for her at Film City’s administration building. After Mary got out of the car, she found that today’s administration building was especially… jubilant. There were even two red lanterns hanging outside the building, and there were lights and decorations everywhere as if it were celebrating the new year.
“Mary! You’re finally here! I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!”
Mary: “…”
She glanced at the jubilant administrative building behind her and then at Boss Taylor, who was all smiles. “Are you so happy to fire me?”
