Chapter 553: I Can’t Wait

Book:TEMPTING The Mysterious CEO Published:2024-5-31

The next two months sped by, and Thea finished all of her scenes far sooner than expected. There were only two more days until Christmas when we left. After they left, the other actors left as well. Thea and the director were the only ones who stayed behind after everyone else had departed the location.
They all wanted to finish their scenes before Christmas. None of them wanted to go back to this gloomy and cold forest anymore after Christmas.
That night before all the crew members were ready to go, Paul invited all of them to his house to hold a roast party.
It was already Christmas Eve. Cody sent his men to bring gifts for all the crew members when they held the party.
The employees of this movie were all grateful.
The director was thankful as well. He thought Thea was such a great actor, and he was planning to have more cooperation with her in the future.
People put their blood, sweat, and tears into the making of this movie.
They believed the movie would be phenomenal when it came out.
Thea took a long sleep, and she woke up early the next morning to fly home.
After seeing her parents and in-laws at home, Thea instantly went back to her room and slept for a couple of more hours.
Everyone knew she was exhausted from shooting the film. They just left her be.
This Christmas was the same as usual. The three families decided to celebrate it together.
However, there was also one new person who joined them this time. Frances showed up early this morning with Amy.
This was his first time visiting Amy’s family and friends. He brought a lot of gifts with him, and he looked happy when he saw everyone.
Helena and her husband were quite satisfied with this new boyfriend of Amy’s. They knew the Jonas house very well. They were decent people with money and reputation. Helena wouldn’t expect Amy to find a better partner.
Thea was the happiest among everyone. She was truly happy for Amy. She was glad that Amy finally had someone who she loved and who also loved her back.
Candace soon went back to another house with the Watsons the next day. Cristelle felt a bit sad because this was her first holiday without Candace around.
But Cody and Demi were still with her. She thus became less lost.
Cristelle insisted on making a big meal for them herself. Thea instantly went into the kitchen to help, “Mom, let me help you.” Cristelle couldn’t stop smiling as she heard Thea calling her Mom.
“I’m okay, sweetie. I can get everything ready myself. You go back to the parlor and watch some TV to relax. I know those people on the crew were working you like a mule. You deserve to relax for a bit. I totally got this.”
But Thea still stayed to help Cristelle.
When they went back to the table, Linford and Cody just left the parlor after having a conversation.
Thea didn’t know what they talked about when she and Cristelle were not around. But she guessed it probably had something to do with the kidnap case involving her Mom.
They sat by the table and started to have their meal.
Cristelle kept fussing over Thea, getting everything she liked on her plate. Thea couldn’t resist Cristelle’s persistence. She didn’t have a big appetite. But she also didn’t want to disappoint Cristelle, so she tried her best to eat more.
Cody noticed that Thea was trying to impress her mother-in-law. He thought it was extremely cute. But he still took Thea’s plate and put the things she couldn’t eat on his plate when Cristelle wasn’t watching.
“What were you guys doing in the parlor just now, honey?” Cristelle asked as she poured some wine into Linford’s glass.
“Oh, nothing,” Linford looked a bit nervous, “Just random topics. Cody suggested movie night.”
“Oh, really?” Cristelle was a little suspicious, but she still turned to Cody, “Is that true, Cody?
“Yeah,” Cody almost choked on his drink, “The first movie of Heavenfall is out. Didn’t Candace tell you that?”
That was a lie. Thea told that directly, but she didn’t say anything as she dipped her head, trying to shove the rest of the food into her mouth.
“No… Wow.” Cristelle looked happy, “Thea’s also in it, right? I can’t wait.”
Oh god, Thea thought. It was always embarrassing for her to see her own face appearing on the screen.
And now, she was gonna do it with the whole family.
She could only give Cristelle an awkward smile.
The movie was somewhat lengthy yet absolutely stunning. Linford didn’t go to the theater very often, but the tale and the way it was edited caught his attention. Thea is doing much of the acting.
In that movie, Thea gave an outstanding performance. She accomplished a great number of separate tasks all by herself. Cristelle was unable to keep her tongue shut after learning that Thea had only utilized stunts for two of the parts in the film.
Because of the high peril involved in both of these situations, only trained experts should have attempted to complete them… However, this did not indicate that the next fights were any less difficult.
If Thea did this all the time, how risky activity would it be for her?
Cristelle was disappointed because the film was only approximately two hours and a half long since she wanted to see more. She had the impression that she was very much a part of that experience.
The fact that Cristelle appreciated Thea’s performance as an actress made Thea feel a little bit pleased.
They were able to watch the movie a little bit earlier than it was scheduled to be shown in public when they watched it in their home theater.
Both of the films in which Thea had roles were commercially successful.
In addition to this, those websites gave them positive evaluations.
Even in the annals of history, Heavefall has a place. Thea’s acting career reached an all-time high all of a sudden. The fact caused Thea’s supporters to feel an incredible amount of pride.
