Chapter 1287 Side Effects
"Alright, there's still a place to stay on the first floor. You can stay there with Lloyd."
"Yes."
Although Callum and Brice are brothers, they don't look much alike.
Callum is much taller than Brice. Brice is agile, while Callum is a bit more reserved. In terms of skills, he's no worse than Derek.
Thinking of Derek, Natalie gave Aurelia a call.
Aurelia had set Natalie's number as an important contact during this period. Whenever Natalie called, her watch would vibrate and automatically connect, allowing her to hear Natalie's call immediately.
"Natalie, how are you? Any news about Derek?"
"Not yet. Don't worry. I asked my friend, and once the cruise ship sets sail, it won't stop until the end of the trip. Only when it stops can we know how the people inside are doing."
Compared to Aurelia's panic, Natalie's voice was much calmer. "So, for now, Derek is safe."
Hearing the word "safe," Aurelia visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
Just last night, she had a dream and couldn't sleep afterward.
She dreamt that Derek had died.
Died at the bottom of the sea.
Soaked in water, he said he wanted to see her one last time before he died, and then he entered her dream.
After waking up, Aurelia cried for several hours.
She was so distracted at work this morning that she decided to take the day off.
Natalie's gentle and calm voice was like a shot of adrenaline for Aurelia.
Natalie shared everything she knew. "This cruise ship is very mysterious and eerie. From what I've found out, it has a maximum cycle of two trips. Derek has been inside for a month now. If he doesn't come out in five days, I'll do everything I can because Derek is also a very important friend to me."
"Natalie, I've also found out some things about this cruise ship recently. It's very dangerous and terrifying. Those who didn't come out of the ship were missing for a long time, and when they reappeared, they had lost their minds. Some even had amnesia, forgetting their own parents and even who they were."
Natalie knew those were the side effects of drug testing.
She didn't tell Aurelia, fearing she would worry.
But her own eyelids twitched a bit; she was afraid something might happen to Derek.
These past few days, Natalie's filming had been going smoothly, with a lot of scenes to shoot each day.
Natalie filmed from morning till night, and tonight she had a commercial shoot scheduled.
After wrapping up the day's filming, she went to the shoot location for a three-hour session.
This time, Natalie was shooting a food commercial. The brand had approached Heather several times and was very sincere. It was a big brand offering a brand ambassador role.
The marketing manager personally contacted Heather, and they had a significant advertising budget for the year.
They also sponsored Natalie's new show, "My Heart, Bright Moon," where Natalie would shoot a mid-show commercial.
After the three-hour shoot, the brand's manager came over to chat with Natalie while she was removing her makeup.
She instructed Beatrix to buy some coffee and late-night snacks for the staff.
The brand's manager was a fan of Natalie's, having booked entire theaters to watch her movies. Natalie expressed her gratitude.
Outside, the takeout Beatrix ordered had arrived.
"Natalie is treating everyone to coffee and late-night snacks. Thank you all for your hard work."
