Warm Married Life: Mr. President Loves His Darling Wife-Chapter 38 - 37: Climbing into Bed to Steal a Role?
Bella Acker isn’t the type to be socially adept, even though she seems lively and cheerful, she’s actually a bit insecure and introverted inside.
Sharon Cheney, who had met countless people, noticed her apprehension and smiled, "It’s a few more hours until we reach the filming location. You can rest a bit more."
"No... I’m not sleeping anymore." Bella Acker shook her head, though she was indeed still sleepy.
"Go ahead, sleep." Sharon Cheney said, "You look about the same age as my daughter. If you don’t mind, you can lean on me and continue sleeping."
"I don’t... I don’t mind!" Bella Acker immediately waved her hand, hesitated for a moment, and leaned her head over, "Ms. Cheney, I’ll just lean on you for a bit more then."
"Alright. Sleep." Sharon Cheney patted her hand and closed her eyes to rest as well.
Bella Acker initially just wanted to get closer to the actress she admired, but she didn’t expect to really fall asleep again.
When she woke up, the car had already stopped, and the other new actors were getting off one by one. If not for the noise they made, she might have slept a bit longer.
"We’ve arrived, let’s get off." Sharon Cheney rubbed her slightly numb arm where Bella had leaned, stood up with a smile, and got off along with the others.
Bella Acker looked out the car window, not daring to be careless, quickly grabbed her bag and got off the car as well.
They arrived at a county two hundred kilometers away from Creston, where the crew had prearranged accommodations at a hotel.
For newcomers like Bella Acker, it’s impossible to have a large bed room to herself. Everyone shared a standard room, two people to a room. While veteran actresses like Sharon Cheney received special treatment from the crew and stayed in a single room.
After saying goodbye to Sharon Cheney, Bella Acker took her room card and went to her room.
At the door, she found the door open. Bella Acker knocked before entering, seeing a young girl already sitting on the bed by the window, she greeted cautiously, "Hello, I’m your roommate. My name is Bella Acker."
"Bella Acker?" The young girl sitting on the bed raised her head, gave Bella Acker a mocking once-over, and said, "Are your parents out of their mind? Giving you such a disgusting name."
Her unfriendly opening left Bella Acker stunned, and her face turned serious, "I don’t even know you, why are you targeting me?"
"Then ask yourself what you’ve done." The young girl’s gaze skimmed over Bella Acker’s chest and legs indifferently, sneering, "Climbed into the executive producer’s bed and snatched someone else’s set role. For a newcomer, you’re quite capable, huh?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
"What do you mean snatched someone else’s set role?" Bella Acker asked in confusion, "I don’t understand what you’re saying."
"Are you really that clueless or just pretending?" The young girl’s sneer deepened, "Anyone in our circle knows important roles are decided beforehand. In ’Brocade River and Mountain,’ Hera is a third female lead, you think such an important role wouldn’t have a pre-specified actor and they’d use a newbie like you, who’s nobody?"
Bella Acker had never dealt with the entertainment circle before and only practiced acting at home, so she didn’t know much about such matters. And as for getting a chance to audition for Hera, it was indeed because the executive producer called her.
"But... I don’t even know the executive producer." Bella Acker disliked being misunderstood this way and frowned while explaining, "I just got the audition notice, and after the audition, it was the director who nodded in approval. The scriptwriter was also there at the time."
