“That, I’m already on the set, you should go back! Just send me here.”
Shane’s face sank and he looked at Olive for half a second in silence, then with a low voice he opened his mouth and asked.
“You don’t want to appear with me in front of the crew now, is it because I’m being pointed out by the people in the crew?”
Olive didn’t expect Shane to ask her so bluntly, and actually caught the most crucial situation so easily.
Olive was even more flustered, this Shane behaved there like a person who had lost her memory and was thoughtful, more perceptive than Olive, a person who had come back from rebirth.
“No no, you think too much, how can anyone gossip!”
Olive hurriedly said, and a warm and welcoming smile was put on her face.
“There are people in the crew who are not happy with me being the female lead as a newcomer, and say that I was only able to attend the audition because of my connections.”
Olive just finished her words, Shane’s face became even darker, and he spoke in a low, hoarse voice.
“It’s true that I didn’t consider the audition well, don’t worry, it won’t happen next time.”
When Olive heard Shane say that, she knew that her words just made him misunderstand, so she hurriedly shook her head and explained in a panic.
“I don’t mean to blame you, and it’s thanks to you that I was able to audition for this new drama and finally get it, and when it’s finished and released, it will be much smoother for me to receive notices and new scripts.
Olive said these words with a frank face, but her heart was a little nervous and panic, and she was really worried that Shane would misunderstand her.
Shane listened to this and was silent for half a second before nodding and not continuing the conversation, saying goodbye to Olive and then leaving.
Olive froze and watched Shane’s departing back until she was completely out of sight before she let out a long breath and turned around to enter the set. It was still very early in the morning and most people were still eating lunch.
She only found Maisie sitting in front of the mirror, doing her make-up. They were shooting this type of script and the make-up process was very troublesome, Maisie was playing a special role, a concubine in a high position, her persona was dignified and elegant, so her dress was also very luxurious, and the hair bun on her head was even more complicated.
This is mainly because of the strict requirements of director Ruut, who has been doing his best to fully restore the description of the characters in the original novel, so the image of the character makeup requirements are also particularly high, resulting in each time they take a long time to make up.
Maisie’s character’s makeup is even more difficult to apply, so she has to come to the set an hour earlier than others each time.
“Maisie, I’m back.” Olive walked over to Maisie and sat down, greeting her lightly.
“How come you’re back so soon?” Maisie looked at Olive with some curiosity, her eyes all contained some other emotions.
“I thought your meal would take a long time, but I didn’t expect it to be over so soon, didn’t we have another chat or something?”
“What can we talk about between Shane and me? And didn’t we have a date for a scene? So we came back here after dinner.”
Olive said indifferently, but seriously scrutinized Maisie’s expression, she always felt that she was acting a bit strange about her Shane’s relationship.
As expected, Olive caught a flicker of difference on Maisie’s face. After hearing what Olive had just said, there was something unnatural on her face, and although she quickly recovered, Olive still noticed it.
Maisie looked at Olive some want to say, just at this time, a side of the makeup artist lightly said.
“Okay, it’s done.”
Maisie’s makeup has been done, this makeup artist’s skill is really good, Maisie looked at the mirror is also very satisfied.
“Then I’ll go and get busy, so you can rest here first! It’s not time to shoot yet, this costume is not suitable for you to walk around, just stay here and don’t run around, the set manager will come to call you when the shooting starts.”
Maisie nodded, and the makeup artist picked up his makeup bag and left.
Only Olive and Maisie were left in the dressing room.
“Olive, what exactly is your … relationship with Shane?”
Finally, Maisie still couldn’t help but ask first.
Olive narrowed her eyes, sure enough her guess was right, there seems to be something between Maisie and Shane, otherwise they wouldn’t be so sullen …
“The two of us met by chance in the countryside when we were kids, and we were kind of teenage playmates, so Shane is now taking care of me a bit for the sake of me being an old acquaintance.” Olive narrowed her eyes, looked carefully at every little expression on Maisie’s face, and said slowly.
This is a long thought out saying, in order to ensure that the lie will not be unraveled, she and the next person also said so.
Maisie was likewise gauging Olive’s expression, and only after a long time did she speak again.
“So that’s how it is, no wonder …”
For Maisie’s performance, Olive was however full of doubts and confusion.
It is reasonable to say that after hearing this set of words from her, everyone will ask some more follow-up questions, after all, Olive and Shane’s identity is so different that it would be a hard thing to believe that they would have known each other when they were teenagers.
One of them is a mountain girl, a young man of a rich family, it can be said that a heaven and an underground, as if there is no way there will be any intersection, ordinary people will ask a few more questions is actually understandable.
However, Maisie did not, she seemed to believe Olive’s words just now, there is no intention to ask one more question.
“So, your house is near Turpin Village, right?”
Maisie asked lightly, causing Olive, who was already confused, to jump in her heart in the blink of an eye.
Maisie even knew that Shane had grown up in Turpin Village as a child! She had only suspected that Maisie and Shane were familiar or had known each other for a long time, but now it seemed that the relationship between them was much more complicated than she had imagined.
But then there was at least one question Olive already knew the answer to, and I’m afraid that’s why Maisie was so convinced of her own words just now.
Maisie’s performance made Olive’s heart a little panic, she remembered that when she planned to approach Shane asked Ware to investigate Shane, according to Ware’s information, Shane grew up in the countryside as a child should only be known to the Lopez family.
So now how did Maisie know this information? Could it be that Maisie and the Lopez Group have some kind of relationship that she doesn’t know about?
