Chapter 1954: Anton Ford Gets Anxious

"Mm, once I’m done with this project, I’ll properly sign up and give it a shot." Joanna Sawyer sometimes got all fired up, and sometimes shrank back a little; she still had a bit of a childish streak.

"Are you going to draw tonight?"

"Nope." The girl took a sip of juice and said proudly, "This lady works super efficiently, I already finished all my tasks at the office! And even overfulfilled them!"

"Then help me run lines. You’ll play Mandy Jennings, you don’t need to memorize anything, just hold the script!"

"Okay." Joanna put down her glass and took the script. "Let me take a look first." She found the female lead Angel’s lines.

She skimmed the big scene at lightning speed, then frowned, looked up and asked, "Sis, you’re getting hit tomorrow?"

"Yeah." Abby Sawyer nodded. "One slap. I’ll try to get it in one take."

"We’ve storyboarded this whole bit already, it’s super brutal, the emotions are really on point." The younger sister said.

The older sister only pressed her lips into a slight smile. "Hurry up and look at the lines."

Joanna stared at her sister’s fair cheeks tinged with pink and asked worriedly, "Did the director say you can cheat the angle?"

Her sister answered, "The director didn’t say anything. Just read the lines."

"In this part the female lead is really over the top emotionally." Joanna didn’t even need to look. "She mistakenly thinks you stole her boyfriend. If she’s an actress who fits the script perfectly, in order to nail this scene, she’ll go all out and really hit you!"

Abby listened and nodded. "Actors are supposed to be professional. It’s just acting."

The scene hadn’t even started shooting yet, and the younger sister already felt the pain for her.

In fact, Abby also felt that Angel would use this chance to take personal revenge. But this was acting, and she herself was just a total nobody, a complete newcomer. What right did she have to ask the director to shoot with a cheated angle?

Besides, for any plot, as long as you cheat the angle, you definitely won’t get the effect the audience wants. With a script this good, better not ruin it.

As an actor, she had to be professional, so Abby allowed everything to happen and accepted it all.

"It’s fine, it’s just a shoot. Don’t worry too much. What good actor doesn’t suffer a bit?" Her sister curved her lips in a smile. "Let’s start. We’ll run it once, I’ll try to get it in one go."

"Did you memorize your own lines?" She was so afraid her sister would mess up and end up getting slapped several times tomorrow.

"Mm, I’ve memorized them."

Over here, the two girls were rehearsing.

In the next room, Anton Miller was lying on the bed, reading the script on his phone. He’d originally just wanted to see if his scenes for tomorrow were heavy or not.

Then he discovered there was a scene where Abby gets slapped by Angel. The shoot hadn’t even started yet, and his heart suddenly clenched. He shot upright, staring at that scene, feeling so heartbroken!

Given the way Angel was as a person, would she use this chance tomorrow to take revenge?

After all, when Abby just went to the bathroom, she had followed her in to slap her and say all that sarcastic, arrogant crap.

And Angel targeted Abby in every possible way; the rumors were also maliciously spread by her.

Then wouldn’t tomorrow be the perfect opportunity for her?

Anton Ford lost his composure, completely lost it. He was upset, anxious, on edge...!

There was something dark and intense in the depths of his eyes; he practically wanted to kill Angel!

So that night, Anton Miller basically didn’t sleep well at all.

The next morning.

When Anton Miller left, he didn’t run into Abby. He didn’t deliberately wait for her either, and just drove straight to the set. He wanted to talk to the director, to see if they could change the scene.

As long as he was there, he would do everything he could to protect Abby unconditionally.
