The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2085

Shaun nodded.

"It's possible to fix it later, but the result might not come across as real. That's why I had Jeff call you back. How did your meal go? Did you have a good time?" he asked with a smile. Melody nodded. "Yeah, I ate to my heart's content. Don't worry, I'll try to do the scenes in one take!"

"Good!"

Shaun looked at Melody with a gratified expression as if he were looking at his own daughter.

Many actors and actresses wanted to work with him, but they could not tolerate his frequent script and scene changes. Behind his back, they quietly called him 'Old Trouble'.

He was aware of all that, but he did not care. He always believed that nothing-whether it was the script, the camera, or the actors and actresses-could be considered finalized until the scene played out exactly as he imagined it to be.

Everyone's vision would be perfect in their imagination, but the actual portrayal might end up at another extreme and completely unrelated to their initial expectations.

He did not blindly trust everything, not even himself; he only believed in the final product of the film. His demands for the performance were clear-the actors or actresses had to meet all of his requirements if they wanted to be in his films.

Melody, however, was different from the others; she seemed like a kindred spirit. Actors or actresses who could work seamlessly with him were few and far between, so Shaun was very grateful to Lucas for discovering such a promising talent.

Once immersed in her role, Melody completely transformed into Athena. Gone were all the unpleasantness that occurred during the meal earlier.

Melody was so vivid and lively that anyone involved in filmmaking, upon seeing her in that state, could not help but be captivated by her.

"Man, you're really lucky. I can't believe you still manage to find such promising talent at your age."

The director from the neighboring film crew was also a longtime friend of Shaun's. As he watched everything unfolding on the screen, he could not help but pat Shaun's shoulder and exclaim, "Incredible! Where did you find this girl? I already thought she was impressive when I saw the behind-the-scenes footage."

Seeing Melody's acting live was even more shocking for him. It was nothing short of a thunderbolt moment.

"All I can say is that she's a genius. Go ahead, envy me. Hahaha!" gloated Shaun.

He had only smoked half a cigarette when Melody finished all the additional shots.

"Mister Shaun, is there anything else you need from me?" Melody asked as she walked up to him.

Shaun waved. "Nope, that'll be all. You can rest now. I'll give you the latest script when you come tomorrow morning."

That meant that her work for the day was done. After confirming all her scenes, Melody went back to her dressing room to rest. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened the door, Melody saw Lucas sitting on the sofa in her dressing room.

"Ah! What are you doing here? Didn't you... Didn't you take Stella to the hospital?"

'The hospital is at least an hour away from the film studio. How did he manage to get here so quickly?' she wondered.

Lucas stood up and approached Melody, casting his shadow over her.

Melody timidly looked up at him. "Why aren't you saying anything? Don't tell me you left Stella in the restaurant. She was in so much pain! Why didn't you send her to the hospital?"
