Secret Billionaire’s Contract Bride: Marrying My Enemy’s Lover

Chapter 82

Things were finally looking like they were playing in my favor. Gabriel and I were on good terms and now we could be normal again. We had gone back to joking with each other on set which was such a breath of fresh air. It made the whole set seem less tense.

“Okay Tiffany, I need you to really sell the whole tortured and in pain feeling.” I looked at my female lead. The man you want to be with cannot be yours because he’s promised to someone else. I need to see the frustration and hear it in your voice, okay?”

“Got it.” She gave me a thumbs up.

I turned but bumped into Gabriel who I had not noticed had moved and was now right behind me. The man moved like a

“Sorry.” I laughed it off and looked up at him. “Ready?”

He nodded. “Always.”

I walked back to my chair behind the camera. I gave my cameramen the signal to get into position and make sure that we had the right shot. I only wanted to do this in as few takes as possible. We were losing daylight.

“Okay, places please,” I yelled “Right, action.”

Tiffany and Gabriel faced each other and acted out the scene. They were brilliant. The emotions they conveyed made me believe every single word they were saying. There was so much pain and anger in Tiffany’s words I was tearing up as 1 watched them. Then there was Gabriel. The man truly did deserve all the accolades he had.

“And cut!” I sniffed. “That was brilliant guys!”

The entire area erupted with applause as Tiffany wiped away the tears that had fallen from her eyes. She truly did have to dig deep down to get all of that out and 1 knew it had taken a lot out of her. I walked to her and gave her a big hug. She practically fell into my embrace and allowed me to hold her. There was a story behind what she had just pulled out and whatever it was had been a huge defining moment in her past.

I pulled away from her and then turned to Gabriel and gave him a hug.

“You two were so good.” I smiled. “And we only needed the one take. You guys should rest, you earned it.”
