Chapter 114

Even though Egbert was speaking softly, the others still heard him, and some couldn’t help but chuckle.

Everyone knew that such endearing nicknames were just part of Egbert and Eileen’s roles in the play. But hearing them still stirred up some ambiguous feelings.

Galen couldn’t help but laugh as well.

But Eileen was pissed. She got up from Egbert and shouted at him. “Are you kidding me? You’ve already said twice that I’m not pretty! Am I a joke to you?”

Now that Eileen was truly angry, everyone fell silent at once. They immediately put down their lunch boxes and came over to calm her down.

Galen, rubbing his throbbing temple, said helplessly, “We’re all adults here; let’s eat and get back to work.”

Eileen looked at Galen discontentedly. “You always take Egbert’s side!”

Galen had no choice but to say, “Egbert, you messed up this time. You should apologize to Eileen.”

Egbert calmly turned his gaze to Eileen and whispered. “Sorry.”

Eileen snorted. “I don’t accept your apology!”

‘I’ll treat you to dinner tonight.”

Eileen dropped her hand. “If I didn’t accept, I’d look petty. Okay, I forgive you. Where are we eating tonight?”

The afternoon scenes were about Palmer and Joyce’s lives after marriage. Even though there were intimate scenes, they didn’t cross the line.

While Joyce was cooking, Palmer hugged her from behind, and then Joyce turned her head and shared a few kisses with him.

This was a very normal scene of affection between a married couple. But during the filming, some problems arose.

“You guys don’t feel like a married couple.”

After one scene, Galen called Egbert and Eileen over to watch the footage.

In the clip, Eileen was wearing an apron with a light-colored house dress underneath and cutting vegetables.
