Chapter 121

After hanging around the filming location for a month and a half, Salome got up and left.

The day Salome left, Galen pulled Eileen and Egbert aside and said, “You guys are up next, any

issues?”

Eileen knew he was talking about the intimate scenes. She confidently said, “No issues, I’ve totally got

this.”

Galen then looked at Egbert, “What about you?”

Egbert calmly said, “Mhm.”

“Good!” Galen said, “I’ve given you enough time to prepare. If there are any problems, don’t blame me

for getting mad.”

The day after they started filming, Galen was pleasantly surprised to find their performance had

significantly improved. Although they couldn’t nail it in one take, after a couple of tries, they definitely

could.

In one scene, Egbert had to lift Eileen onto a dining table and kiss her. Galen watched the scene

through the lens and was very pleased. After they finished, he praised Eileen, “You’re really getting into

it.”

While wiping her mouth, Eileen said, “Of course, we’ve watched over 20 romance movies recently.

Every single one helped me find my emotions.”

Galen approvingly said, “Although I can tell you’re still using techniques, you don’t have that cold

feeling anymore. Clearly, having you and Egbert spend more time together was useful. You may not

like him, but at least you can get used to him. Once you’re used to him, you can feel close.”

Eileen nodded, then asked, “Can I have an extra meal at lunchtime?”

“All you think about is food.” Galen rolled his eyes.

But he still took care of her, having the chef prepare two big chicken legs just for her at lunch.

After they finished filming the hardest intimate scenes, the whole crew’s rhythm got back on track. They

then filmed non-stop for over two months, finally getting to the final stages.

Eileen’s last scene was filmed on an evening.

Joyce, pregnant, was gripping the bedsheets, struggling fiercely against Palmer who didn’t pay any

mind to her resistance. Just as Joyce was about to reach her peak, Palmer’s hand wrapped around her

neck.

At first, he was just lightly stroking her. But then, his grip slowly tightened.

Joyce started to struggle to breathe.

She opened her eyes, looking at the man in front of her, her fingers clawing at the back of his hand.

“What are you doing, ah…”

Palmer kept his eyes down. His grip got tighter and tighter. Slowly, veins popped out on Joyce’s

forehead. She started to struggle fiercely, her eyes filled with fear. Finally, after a long while, she

opened her eyes wide, Palmer’s figure reflected in her vacant pupils.

She stopped breathing. Only then did Palmer let go of her neck. His expression was calm, his fingers

softly stroking her hair, his thrusting still not stopping.

“Cut.”

Galen called for a cut.

Egbert got off of Eileen. A crew member came over, draping a jacket over him.

At that moment, Eileen sat up from the bed, looking expectantly at Galen.

Galen stroked his chin, staring at the screen for a long time. Everyone on set was waiting for his

verdict, growing increasingly anxious. Finally, Galen loudly said, “That’s a wrap! Eileen’s done!”

“Awesome!”

Someone on set suddenly threw confetti and fireworks. In an instant, the whole set was filled with joy.

Eileen’s head was covered in colorful sparkles.

Immediately after, Flossie pushed out a cake that said, “Congrats on wrapping up,” and, “May your

future be bright”.

Eileen was surrounded by everyone.

Egbert watched their lively scene, tightened his own jacket, and walked to the other side..

Seeing him come over, Galen patted him on the shoulder and said, “That was an amazing performance

you just put on. I thought we’d have to film that four or five times at least.”

Egbert picked up a water bottle, took a sip, and said, “The more we film, the more it’ll affect the mood.”

Galen lit a cigarette and chuckled. “Is it the mood that’ll be affected, or are you just worried about

Eileen having to suffer more? That choking scene wasn’t easy.”

Egbert didn’t respond. He screwed the lid back onto the water bottle and put it to the side.

Galen then said, “But she really is a capable actress. You gave a good performance, and her response

was great too. She’s truly a natural-born actress.”

“I thought you weren’t satisfied with her.” Egbert raised an eyebrow.

Galen chuckled. “So should I go tell her to her face that I’m satisfied with her? She’ll get all cocky then.

You know how she is.”

Egbert chuckled. That was indeed how Eileen was.

Galen then said, “She’s leaving the crew tomorrow. I’ll give you half a day off, go send her off.”

Egbert slowly said, “Her manager will come pick her up.”

“What’s the matter, afraid of meeting the parents?” Galen teased.

Egbert paused for a moment, then chuckled..

The next day, Ophelia arrived early. Eileen was still, having breakfast when she arrived.

Ophelia brought many gifts, instructing her assistant to hand them out to the crew, saying Eileen

must’ve caused them a lot of trouble over this period, and asked them not to mind.

“Is Mr. Reed here?” Ophelia asked.

Eileen said, “He went to get my breakfast Will be back in a bit.”

Ophelia frowned. “How are things between you two now?”

“Not bad,” Eileen replied indifferently.

Ophelia was silent for a moment, then said, “When he comes back, give him a small gift.”

Eileen said, “I’ll just take it to his room.”

Ophelia was taken aback. “Isn’t he not here?”

Eileen took a key out of her pocket and said, “I have the key to his room.”

Ophelia stared at the key for a while, her face turning an unnatural color. “Why… why do you have the

key to his room?”

“What’s the big deal? He has the key to my room too.” Eileen looked at Ophelia, blinking innocently.

Ophelia was stunned! What did she just hear?!
