Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 120 Gossip

On the second day, Erin and Roman arrived at DragonSky Studios early in the morning for the opening ceremony.

Erin stood with a group of other actors‘ assistants, watching the main actors, director, and producer of the film uncover the cloth that was covering the main camera to signify that the film shooting would officially start.

Roman, Matthew, Megan, and ten other main actors were dressed in ancient costumes. They would start filming right away after the

opening ceremony.

The film “Fox” told the fantasy story of a lox spirit from over a thousand years ago. It seduced the monarch and brought calamity to the country and its people. Roman played the upright prince who wasn’t seduced by the fox spirit and teamed up with Matthew, who played the general to fight demons. Megan played the fox spirit that was both benevolent and evil at the same time. At first, she only wanted the prince, but later on, her love would turn into hatred, and she would plot to destroy the prince’s kingdom.

Erin had already read the script and found it quite interesting. She was looking forward to Roman and Matthew’s performances. Now that she had become an assistant trainee, she could watch Roman perform on set.

The opening ceremony quickly came to an end, and the stall from various departments immediately got to work. Roman had already returned to his dedicated dressing room to touch up his makeup. He had a total of five scenes to shoot that day. Erin went to Megan’s exclusive dressing room with the bottle of red wine. After knocking on the door, she was let in.

As soon as she pushed the door open, she was amazed at the sight of the acclaimed actress, Megan. She didn’t expect her to be even more beautiful in person than on screen, especially with her glowy, smooth skin. It would make any woman envious.

Erin was lost in thought upon seeing her, and there was a hint of concealed satisfaction in Megan’s eyes as she took in Erin’s reaction. She asked, “Are you Roman’s new assistant?”

As the question was directed at her, Erin snapped out of her daze and replied, “Yes, Miss Zeigler. Here’s the red wine that Roman asked me to return to you. He said he appreciates your kindness but he isn’t drinking red wine at the moment.”

Megan’s personal makeup artist spoke up first, “The wine won’t expire.”

Erin smiled and didn’t respond to her seemingly indifferent remark.

Megan then smiled. “Miss Lane, are you sure it was Roman who asked you to return the wine to me?”

Hearing Erin call Roman this way made Megan feel uncomfortable. It was as if she was doubling Erin’s abilities and character.
