Chapter 507 An Ice Queen
It was a peaceful sleep without a dream.
The next day, when Evelyn woke up, she found her face full of tears.
Evelyn didn't know why she was like this all of a sudden.
She only knew that she was beyond exhausted, so much so that she felt both mentally and physically exhausted.
But beggars couldn't be choosers.
The only thing she could do was to appear in front of everyone well-groomed and try her best to put on a perfect facade for everyone to see.
After putting on the make-up, the haggard woman in the mirror suddenly turned into a bright and charming beauty.
Evelyn raised the corner of her mouth in a self-deprecating manner. She didn't know whether she should be exclaimed by the magic of makeup or her previous haggard face.
After putting on her clothes, Evelyn went downstairs and got on the ride provided for her by the company, heading towards the filming site.
On the way, Marissa looked at the silent Evelyn, and her heart could not help but feel a twinge of pain.
She heard that Evelyn was embarrassed by Wes at the banquet yesterday.
Marissa also knew that she was the one who made a mistake with the time of the banquet.
However, there was one thing that was very puzzling to her.
And that was the time given to her by Wes's assistant. How could it be wrong?
But no one would answer her question.
From yesterday till now, Marissa had been trying to find out what was wrong more than once.
Anyone who knew about it had a mysterious look on their faces, indicating that they could do nothing to help.
No matter how hard Marissa tried to inquire about this matter, no one could give her a definite answer.
Feeling frustrated, Marissa couldn't help but to wonder about something.
Who on earth did Evelyn offend?
Yes, Evelyn must have offended someone, someone who Wes would listen too.
But Marissa could not figure out who that person was.
Evelyn usually had a good reputation and never had conflicts with others before. She always tried her best to be kind to others.
It had to be said that Evelyn's enemies were so few compared to other celebrities of her generation.
Under such circumstances, who had Evelyn offended and done something out of line like his.
Marissa was puzzled.
After all, Melodie was the only person Evelyn had a feud with recently.
As for Melodie.
Thinking of that arrogant woman, Marissa couldn't help but laugh at herself.
What did she suddenly think of Melodie?
By the way! Melodie!
Marissa wanted to slap himself in the face out of resentment.
How could she forget Melodie?
Wes was Melodie's uncle. If it was all because she wanted to mess with Evelyn, then everything made sense.
At the same time, only Melodie had the motive to make things difficult for Evelyn on such a trivial matter.
Thinking of this, Marissa quickly nudged Evelyn who was staring outside the window in a daze.
"Evelyn, I know why I made a mistake yesterday!"
"What's wrong?" Evelyn frowned.
Marissa looked at Evelyn seriously and said a name, "Melodie."
Evelyn immediately understood.
"Melodie, huh..." Evelyn was slightly lost in thought.
If that was the case, then everything made sense.
It was because of Melodie that Wes had made things difficult for her. It was also because of her that Marissa got the time wrongly.
Thinking of this, a hint of coldness flashed in Evelyn's eyes.
She didn't know that Melodie was this narrow-minded.
Indeed, Evelyn was the cause of the feud, but at the end of the day, it was all Marty's fault.
To be honest, she was actually a victim too.
But why did Melodie attribute all the blame on her?
Evelyn felt ridiculous about it, while she thought that she had to be more vigilant in the future.
Judging from what had happened recently, there was no guarantee that there would be more disgusting sh*t coming in her way.
In that case, she had to be careful.
Soon, the car arrived at the set.
When she got out of the car, the first person she saw was an actor who she had met at the banquet the day before.
Herman Welles.
Herman was the leading actor of this drama, and he was also a popular star in show business today.
Different from other popular celebrities, Herman majored in performing arts during his college. Because of his handsome appearance, good sense of humor and ability to build hype, he often appeared on the trending topics, and was admired by a group of sponsors.
Herman was a professional with strong work ethics being a graduate of performing arts college.
Based on the quality of his previous work, Herman was indeed the best actor Evelyn had worked with so far.
Thinking of this, Evelyn could not help looking forward to it.
If she could work with him, she believed that it would be helpful for her to improve her acting skills...
Just thinking about it, Evelyn felt that this was a rare opportunity.
Evelyn loved being an actress, and she really treated it as a career, instead of a tool to make money.
Therefore, when she saw Herman, she approached him in a calm manner and said with a smile, "Hello, I am your scene partner from now on. My name is Evelyn. Nice to meet you."
Evelyn and Herman didn't know each other before, they just heard each other's names.
Therefore, it was understandable that Evelyn introduced herself to him today.
However, Herman felt that something was not right.
He didn't know who Evelyn was, but that didn't stop someone from mentioning her name all the time in front of him.
Herman could not help but feel a headache at the thought of his close friend.
According to him, although Evelyn was not hostile to others, she was an ice queen that was not easy to get along with.
But she seemed to be quite enthusiastic today...
In the face of Evelyn's excitement, Herman suddenly felt a little narcissistic.
Could it be that Evelyn had a crush on him?
However, as soon as the idea came to him, it was forcibly wiped out by Herman.
He must be thinking too much.
He might not know anything else about her, but how could he not know what had happened in the grand industry party now? It had caused a stir among themselves.
If Evelyn could reject Marty for her fiancé's sake, how could she fall in love with him?
At the thought of this, Herman felt relieved. He was not so uncomfortable anymore.
He looked at Evelyn calmly with a polite and distant smile on his face. "Hello, Miss Hussain. I hope we can work well with each other in the future."
Upon hearing Herman's words, Evelyn knew that she had been a little impolite.
She was too impulsive. As soon as she saw a good scene partner and thought that they could have fun acting together, she got a little too excited.
Embarrassed, she touched her nose and coughed dryly, as she said with a smile, "Of course."
Herman nodded. Then, the two of them separated and walked towards the set.
However, looking at Evelyn in front of him, Herman couldn't help but lament.
