Chapter 2013: Avoiding Embarrassment
The man quickly explained when he sensed their refusal, "Everyone in the crew has one, it's not just for the two of you."
Upon hearing this, the two girls looked at each other hesitantly.
Harlan raised the bag in his hand and said gently, "Everyone has one, so feel free to take it."
Only then did they take the bag from him and said, "Thank you." It was a bit embarrassing, as they had misunderstood.
As Harlan walked towards the elevator, he made a phone call and whispered, "Immediately send a hundred cups of green bean soup to the set, distribute one to each person."
Spencer viewed Harlan's behavior as a leftover trick of his, feeling disdainful but still uneasy. He walked briskly to the side of the two girls and kindly warned them, "It's not yet midsummer, drinking this stuff will do you no good. My friend ended up in the hospital after drinking it yesterday."
Elisa and Summer looked at him, and Spencer left them with a half-turned face, leaving them unsure whether he was telling the truth.
Everyone rode the elevator to the top floor and entered a large dressing room. The actors gathered and sat in front of the makeup mirrors, while the makeup artists busied themselves.
Many of the actors recited their lines while getting their makeup done. Elisa and Summer noticed that only they had the green bean soup, while Spencer had discouraged them from drinking it. They placed it on the worktable.
Ten minutes later, the delivery guy arrived and placed a cup of green bean soup in front of each person. He announced, "This is from Mr. Harlan, as a treat for everyone."
"Wow, it's from Harlan!"
"This is so thoughtful, isn't it?"
"Thank you, Harlan!" someone shouted towards the man nearby, raising the cup of green bean soup.
As Harlan sat on the sofa, he responded with a gentle smile, which was a bit bitter.
Elisa sat next to Summer, observing the situation, and whispered to her, "Summer, do you think... he really only brought it for us?"
Why did everyone else receive theirs by delivery? Why did he personally wait at the door for them? Was he doing this to avoid embarrassment?
Summer had the same doubts and looked in Harlan's direction. She didn't say anything but felt strange about it.
Soon, the makeup artist finished Summer's makeup. Since she was naturally beautiful, light makeup suited her better for filming. "Her beauty should not be concealed by rouge," as directed by the director.
After finishing her makeup, Summer picked up her script and headed to the green room. Andrew had noticed that Spencer was in a bad mood today and occasionally shot cold glances towards a certain Han surname.
All the trending topics had been suppressed, and it wasn't clear whether Harlan had seen them or not. So when Andrew saw Harlan standing up and walking with Summer, he patted Spencer on the
shoulder and whispered, "Spencer, get back to the green room after finishing your makeup. Leave the rest to me."
Saying that, he also walked out.
Sure enough, after Summer entered the green room, Harlan knocked on the door and walked in with a smile. "Summer, let's rehearse our scene first, there's one coming up for us."
Before Summer could respond, Andrew stepped in quickly. "Summer, Spencer wants to see you, he says today's scene is a bit difficult, especially the heroic rescue scene by the pool. He needs to rehearse with you beforehand." He completely ignored Harlan.
Elisa glanced at Andrew, and their eyes met. She suddenly understood something and quickly added, "Go ahead, there's still at least an hour before filming starts, so you should try to get through such a tough scene in one take!"
Not only did Elisa say this, she also pushed Summer slightly and said, "Go!" This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Andrew made a gentlemanly gesture, "Please." His lips curled upwards.
That's how Summer looked at Harlan and then followed Andrew out, as a way of greeting, before walking out with him.
