Chapter 214
The thought of Lucas Gomez always stirred up a lingering restlessness in her heart because although
she had been with him for a long time now, Lucas had still never touched her at all.
But no matter what, she was still Lucas Gomez’s official girlfriend, and as for Serenity, she would teach
her how their tables had turned, and she would finally see the price she had to pay for refusing to help
Aria back then!
Before filming officially began, the director had everyone rehearse their scenes twice, but Serenity did
not see Jenny Hall during the rehearsal at all because Jenny had a stand-in take her ce instead.
Aria, however, did not let a stand-in take her ce. She joined the rehearsals herself, standing next to
the leading actor. She yed the second female lead in this drama and was the male lead’s concubine.
She would be sharing a lot of scenes with Jenny Hall as well.
Lucas Gomez had given her a few roles to choose from, and she had chosen this one herself without
any hesitation much to Luca s’s own surprise.
“I thought you’d choose a leading role,” he said. “This one’s just a supporting role.”
it’s a huge production,” she told him. “The director is renowned, the male lead has won the best actor
award twice, and the female lead, Jenny Hall, is the most popr actress at the moment. If I join such
a production, even as a supporting actress, Ill get more exposure than bing the female lead of a
drama with small production!”
Although that was what she told Lucas, no one but Aria knew that these were mere excuses The true
reason she had chosen to join this production was to show Jenny Hall how far she hade.
Jenny Hall had always looked down on her. Aria remembered clearly how she had treated her with
contempt and disdain when she had begged Zeke Shaw for a role! But now, she could show Jenny that
although she was just a supporting actress, she could easily outsh ne the female lead herself!
But then, she had gotten another pleasant surprise as Serenity had also joined the production as an
extra! Now, she could stand tall above these two women at the same time. The thought alone delighted
her to no end!
When the second rehearsal ended, the director was about to start the official shooting, but Aria
suddenly told him, “I think the extras weren’t in unison when they were kneeling down.”
“What?” The director was taken aback. He thought that the extras had done well enough just now. After
all, these were just extras, not soldiers. He could not possibly expect absolute unison from them.
“That’s right,” Aria insisted in a professional tone as if all she wanted was to get the best result in the
final version of the drama. “I don’t think they were in unison at all, and I’m sure it’s going to affect the
overall scene. Why don’t you let them reh ear se it a few more times so that they do it more properly? I
don’t mind rehearsing with them. All I want is for the scene toe out perfect, anyway!”
Although the director was suspicious of Aria’s sudden request, he was cautious of the fact that she was
the Prince of the Entertainment Industry’s current girlfriend, so he had to avoid offending her at all
costs. Hence, he could only fulfill her wish as much as he could and ordered the extras to kneel down
again.
And so, Serenity and the rest of the extras went down on their knees and touched their foreheads to
the ground. At that moment, Aria deliberately walked up to Serenity, making it seem like Serenity was
kowtowing to Ara.

Serenity knew then that this was all Aria’s doing, but there was nothing she could do about it since the
director seemed to be willing to do whatever Aria wanted. If she wanted the pay for the day, she had no
choice but to do what she was told.
She thought of the money she still owed Lisa to pay for her grandmother’s medical bills and ground her
teeth, telling herself to just get it over with.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.
