Chapter 1030 Virginia Fainted
When Christina was stunned, Bernard pushed Virginia, trying to push her away a bit.
At the same time, Virginia caught sight of Christina standing not far away, her eyes suddenly turned sinister, and she deliberately leaned closer to Bernard, then coquettishly said, "Bernard, look, isn't that Christina standing over there?"
Seeing Christina, a trace of panic flashed in Bernard's eyes.
Anyone who saw this scene would think that there was something going on between the two of them.
Christina stared at them for a long time, then quickly walked up, shoved her phone into his hand, and turned to leave.
"Christina!"
She turned and walked away. Bernard knew she must have misunderstood, so he pushed Virginia away and turned to chase after her.
Virginia had worked hard to achieve her goal of making Christina misunderstand their relationship, so she wouldn't let Bernard go so easily.
Before Bernard could take a few steps, Virginia suddenly screamed and collapsed into his arms, "Bernard, help me."
After saying that, Virginia fainted.
Seeing this, Bernard had no choice but to turn back. No matter how much he shook her, Virginia remained unresponsive.
He couldn't just leave Virginia, so Bernard could only watch as Christina disappeared from his sight.
"Billy," Bernard shouted, and Billy ran in from outside, appearing by his side.
Bernard casually pushed Virginia into Billy's arms, "Take her to the hospital."
"Yes!" Billy immediately took Virginia away.
Virginia, who was pretending to faint, was unwilling to leave just like that, but she couldn't wake up. If Bernard found out she was pretending, their years of acquaintance would be completely ruined.
After handing Virginia over to Billy, Bernard headed towards the hotel. He needed to explain the situation to Christina and couldn't let her misunderstand his relationship with Virginia.
He had just taken a few steps when his phone rang, "Hello."
"Mr. Mitchell, everyone is here, just waiting for you."
Today's meeting was very important. If there were any issues, it would affect the Mitchell family's company's development goals for the second half of the year.
Looking in the direction Christina had left, Bernard hesitated for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Okay, I'll be right there."
After hanging up, Bernard looked towards the hotel for a minute, then resolutely turned and left.
Back at the hotel, Christina closed the door and sat on the sofa, feeling lost.
Her mind kept replaying the scene of Virginia leaning into Bernard's arms, unable to calm down.
"Read the script, read the script," Christina muttered, picking up the script from the table and flipping through it.
After going through the script, Christina realized she hadn't absorbed a single word.
"Ugh, so annoying!" she exclaimed, leaning back on the sofa and covering her face with the script.
She couldn't pretend to be unaffected after seeing Bernard and Virginia together.
Now she felt sad and jealous.
Why could Bernard care so much for her on one hand and hold Virginia on the other?
After a sleepless night, Christina looked a bit down the next day.
"Christina, you don't look well today?" The one who came over to show concern was a supporting actress in the drama, with few scenes and not a well-known presence in the crew.
Christina had a scene with her before, but they weren't familiar. She didn't expect anyone in the crew to talk to her, especially after the news incident, everyone had been respectful but distant.
"Thank you for your concern; I'm fine, I just didn't sleep well."
"Is it because you can't sleep well in a new bed?" Isolde Lawson put on a mysterious look, took out a jar from her bag, "I found this, it's very effective for insomnia. Here, you can try it next time you can't sleep."
Christina hesitated for a moment, then took the jar, "Thank you."
Although she didn't understand why Isolde was so concerned about her, she didn't want to refuse the kindness.
"By the way, Christina, what's your relationship with Virginia? On the first day of shooting, she came over to deliver drinks, clearly targeting you."
Isolde looked young and innocent, not like the other colleagues in the crew who were sycophantic.
She didn't like Virginia and directly voiced her suspicion.
"You don't like Virginia?" Christina was surprised, "But everyone in the crew likes her. Why don't you?"
Isolde frowned and shook her head slightly. "I don't know, it just feels like she's always smiling at everyone, never losing her composure. It feels fake and scary, so I don't like her."
This seemed to be the reason Christina had never liked Virginia from the start. People had emotional ups and downs, and someone who never showed their true feelings could seem insincere.
"Hey, you know what?" Isolde looked around, put on a mysterious expression, and lowered her voice, "I heard that she's actually not nice to her assistant, treating them like a servant and often losing her temper."
Christina was stunned, not expecting Virginia to be like that in private, "How do you know this?"
"A friend of a friend works at her agency and often complains about Virginia. This information is definitely true."
It seemed it might be true.
Christina was silent for a moment, then asked, "But if it's so hard, why doesn't her assistant quit?"
"Christina, you really don't know what it's like to struggle in the real world. Because being her assistant is so tough, the company pays a bit more, and people don't want to give up the money." Isolde sighed helplessly.
Christina remembered her own job search, sending out countless resumes without any response.
If it weren't for the chance to shoot that commercial, she wouldn't be here filming a drama.
"That's true, finding a job is tough for everyone."
Isolde pulled her hand, "Christina, I have more news, want to hear?"
"What news?" Christina wasn't very curious about these things, but chatting with Isolde was relaxing, so she wanted to continue.
Isolde lowered her voice again, "Actually, Virginia's acting isn't very good. The director often has to give her one-on-one guidance. It's funny, her acting is bad, but she dares to teach you in our crew."
