But as a celebrity, he had to remain courteous because there were many people there. So he resisted the urge to throw up and replied, “Armani Joyner. You are?”
“I’m Leo’s manager,” Annetta said. “I’ve seen Leo’s script, and you’ve messed up this simple scene so many times. It looks like you really do not know how to act, so let me show you how to act in this scene.”
Armani guffawed as if he had heard a great joke. “Haha, are you kidding? Do I need you to teach me how to act?”
“Annetta White, I advise you not to make a fool of yourself here.” Elizabeth also stood up and said with a smile, “Do you know how ignorant you sound? Do you know that Armani won this year’s Best New Actor at the Lily Awards? Does he need you to teach him how to act?”
“Lily Award?” Annetta sneered. “That is why he messed up this simple take so many times. It turns out that he won some wild chicken award from who knows where.”
After that, she took off her coat and threw it on the ground. She looked at Armani and said, “Come on, let me teach you how to act this role.”
“An ugly b*tch like you teaching me how to act? Hahahaha, are you a jester sent by Leo? Haha, Elizabeth, this ugly b*tch is so hilarious, she’ll be the death of me-” Armani suddenly flew two metres away and crashed onto the ground, sending a pile of dirt into the air. Annetta had kicked him viciously in the gut.
The whole place was silent.
Annetta walked Armani, who was lying on the ground and looked down at him. “Didn’t you say that I’m so hilarious that I’ll be the death of you? Go to hell then!”
Annetta grabbed Armani’s collar and lifted him up. She kicked his belly hard again. “Do you know how to act? The Best New Actor for the Wild Chicken Award, huh?”
Armani clutched his stomach and felt like his liver had been cut apart by Annetta’s kick. He groaned painfully on the ground, “It’s so painful!”
Elizabeth finally reacted. She ran up to Armani and saw that he was in so much pain that his veins popped out. She glared at Annetta and said to her assistant, “What are you waiting for? Call the police!”
As she spoke, she threatened Annetta harshly, “Just you wait, you’re going to jail!”
Annetta sneered. She stood in the same place, tall and slender. The wind blew through her long hair. She glared coldly at Elizabeth and Armani with disdain, “How can you send me to prison when I’m just acting with Mr. Joyner? What about him? He hit Leo too.”
Armani, who was clutching his stomach, roared, “I was acting! The script called for it!”
“Oh?” Annetta tilted her head. “In that case, I just kicked Mr. Joyner two times per the script, and you want to send me to prison. Mr. Joyner, you kicked Leo fourteen times according to the script. Shouldn’t you get the death sentence?”
“You!” Armani was so furious that his whole body ached. “You are beyond reason!”
Annetta could not be bothered with him at all. She only warned, “Originally, I wanted to give you another fourteen kicks on Leo’s behalf, but who would have thought that trash like you would be easily beaten like this? I warn you, I don’t care what kind of hidden rules others have in the production crew. I’ll give you a beating every time I see you if you bully Leo again. You know how hard I hit. You’d better think twice next time!”
After that, Annetta Jin turned around and walked to Gino.
Before this, Annetta held him in high regard. After all, he was a well-known director in the country. But after this incident, her respect for Gino Ross had decreased a little.
She knew that Gino did not care what she thought about him, but she had to make it clear, “Mr. Gino Ross, I assume you chose Leo as your second male protagonist because you appreciated his abilities. We are extremely grateful to you for providing Leo with this chance. Leo is just a regular student who simply wants to do a good job in his role. Mr. Ross, I hope Leo will be able to do so in your production crew.”
Annetta was polite, but her words had a forewarning tone to them. Gino Ross had never seen anything like this before.
