You Are Mine (English)

Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Hidden War

In the praises of the people, Sophie showed a smile, but she did not immerse herself in it. It was as though she did not accept their compliments. She still politely thanked the staff and made a rather well-behaved look.

She was arrogant, too. Even the national drama queen, Queenie, only brought one assistant, plus a makeup artist that was sent by the company. Three assistants followed this new number, three actresses.

The assistant’s hands were full of boxes as if Sophie was moving in. She had brought so much because she didn’t know how many things she would need. Edie stood by and looked at her with cold eyes. She never went up to take any food, and she didn’t speak to Sophie either.

She couldn’t explain it, but she always felt that Sophie gave certain people a very uncomfortable feeling. Therefore, she wanted to stay away from her and subconsciously avoided her. Sophie had other intentions, and she did not intend to let her go.

Sophie slightly lifted her eyes and scanned the people in the room. It was like a delightful surprise, and she suddenly shouted at Edie and Queenie, "Edie, Queenie, I had been admiring you for a long time."

Although Edie felt a little embarrassed, she still smiled decently, "Hello, nice to meet you." Sophie was happier. She told her assistants something and then let them take her things to the room. She went straight to Edie and personally brought two cups of coffee with her.

So, Edie and Queenie took the coffee and held it in their hands and said, "Thank you."

Sophie smiled and said, "Edie and Queenie, you are the actresses that I really like the best because I can have a chance to act opposite you. I accepted this drama in hopes of learning from you two." Her words sounded so hypocritical.

She is saying that she liked Queenie and Edie. Why would she say that? It was definitely unbelievable and fake. She was an infamous star. She didn’t need to wear a mask when she walked down the street.

"She hasn’t done any acting in her life. She had only a supporting role. She has no experience, so who exactly does she think that she is?" Edie couldn’t get what she said out of her mind.

"You praise me too much. I am just a newcomer who has just entered the industry, and I will make progress with you, too."

"I have seen Queenie and Edie’s drama. Edie’s acting is outstanding. I believe I can learn a lot from you. Edie, can you help me? After all, we are good friends in the play."

Edie did not know that Sophie had read the script or that such a sentence could have such a profound meaning. In the play, Susan and Lola were indeed good friends, but this friend was really not a good friend to Susan.

Lola repeatedly provoked the relationship between Susan and Abbey because of her secret love for Hank. Even the death of Susan was because Lola drove the car and hit her. Such a person, if it is really the best friend of Edie, she really didn’t want it.

Edie said, "Everyone is in a group, and we are all friends. Mutual help is a must, but after all, it is the crew that helps us make it work, we need to focus on our work." Sophie could feel the alienation of Edie. She did not care and smiled at Queenie, "Queenie, you are my idol; I just decided to enter the entertainment circle because I saw your work."

Queenie had been in the industry for many years. She had heard a lot of different compliments, so she just smiled, "Really? I am thrilled that you like it."

"My favorite is "Love Song of Sunglow." In that scene, you are so beautiful. I was still in elementary school, and I liked it very much."

Queenie’s smile was stiff. Her debut drama "Love Song of Sunglow" was filmed when she was eighteen years old. Although many people now feel that Queenie had been in the industry for a long time, it is because she entered the industry at an early age.

Queenie was only twenty-five years old now. Most female stars have entered the industry at her age. Her appearance was very young, so she looked like she was twenty. Although Queenie never felt that she was old, she was suddenly mentioned by this little girl, and the age difference between the two was compared together. Queenie felt annoyed.

Sophie was acting like she didn’t know how to see others’ facial expressions, and she was still chattering, "Queenie, at that time, you were almost as young as I am now? I really envy you. If I can have such an achievement when I am at the age of you now."

Queenie’s emotions were well concealed, and she smiled, "You have a good chance now, and your development will be better than mine in the future."

"Speaking of a friend, My friend especially likes Queenie."

"Your friend?" asked Queenie.

Queenie’s eyes opened wide. She seemed to think of something and suddenly looked up at Sophie. Sophie stopped at this moment and she did not continue talking, but revealed a meaningful smile, "Oh, I have talked with the two sisters for so long. The director should be anxious, and we should go to work now."

After that, she nodded slightly to the two and left on high heels. Edie looked at Sophie’s back and slowly said, "This little girl is going to be trouble." In front of two predecessors, it is indeed not stupid to be able to come and go freely and lead the topic. Sophie’s skills were definitely above the level of Zoe.

"I heard that she was only nineteen years old?" Queenie asked in a quiet voice. Her face showed a hint of sarcasm, "Oh, for so many years, his taste has always been the same."

Edie did not know what Queenie was talking about and asked questioningly, "What did you say?"

Queenie swallowed the rest of her words and looked at Edie as usual, "Nothing, but what she just said was right, let’s get to work as we both know that the director will be anxious." Edie nodded, and the two of them walked together.

Director learned a lesson from the previous events. Knowing that three women were hard to handle and that the relationship between Edie and Queenie was good, he hoped that the new Sophie would also have a good relationship with them. So, on the first day, the director arranged a three-person play before the reshoot. freewёbnoνel.com

The main content of this play was that Susan and Lola met Hank on the street, and Lola was to sabotage their relationship. They are taking into account the cost of the reshoot in the new script. Lola’s parts had been cut a lot, but the last ones are the plots that can express the personality of the characters.

After a few minutes, the position was set, and the lighting group was all in place. The director nodded with satisfaction and shouted the first sound after the crew re-started, "Action!"
