Chapter 642


    Chapter 642


    Ste made a mental note not to ever let Weston be so reckless with her body.


    “What kind of film do you n on directing next?” she asked Bradley, trying desperately to change the


    subject.


    “Me?” heughed. “I see that you’re getting bolder now, huh? You even dare to ask me about my future


    ns! Well, I don’t mind telling you anyway.”


    Ste waited for his answer enthusiastically, then she heard Bradley’s light chuckle before he stated,


    “My current n is to have no future ns!”


    Ste was speechless.

    “After what I’ve gone through directing this movie,” he added earnestly, “I do believe I’ve earned a rest.


    This movie really has taken a toll on me.”


    He let out a heavy sigh, then continued, “I definitely would not be working with a demanding actress


    next time.”


    Ste knew exactly who he was referring to and just smiled without expressing any opinions on the


    matter.


    “Anyway,” said Bradley, “you’re done for the day, so go home and get a nice rest. Make sure you’re


    ready for yourst scene.”


    “Yes, Mr. Lane.”


    “Good,” replied Bradley. “I’d better go shoot the next scene now. I wonder if Angelina is ready yet. I


    should go talk to her before we start.”


    Ste nodded and Bradley was about to leave, but he stopped and turned around suddenly and said,


    “Oh, by the way, there’s something else that I forgot to tell you.”


    “What is it?”


    “Your brother came here to find you, but you weren’t here, so I told him to go back to his sses and


    I’d tell you he was hereter.”


    Ste sprang up to her feet the moment Bradley mentioned her brother.


    “When did hee?”


    “Yesterday,” answered Bradley. “Are you two in some kind of a tight spot right now? Your brother looked


    extremely worried about you.”


    “Not particrly …” Ste then became anxious. “What did he say to you? Did he tell you why he was


    looking for me?”


    “He didn’t seem to be in any sort of trouble,” Bradley recalled. “He said he just wanted to see you,


    that’s all.”


    Ste paused, then asked, “Did he… ask you where I live?”


    “No.” Bradley then eyed her suspiciously. “What exactly is going on here?”


    Ste calmed herself down and in a serious tone asked Bradley, “Could you help me with something


    please?”


    “What is it?”


    “If my brotheres here again and asks you where I live, could you tell him that I am staying at a


    ce that the crew has arranged for me?”


    Bradley stared straight at her without giving an answer.


    Ste sighed and exined, “I’m renting a ce on my own right now, but my brother is always worried


    about my safety. He’s been insisting on staying with me, but I’m afraid that it would distract him from his


    studies … He’ll be studying abroad soon, so to put his mind at ease I told him that I’m staying at a


    ce that the crew has arranged for me.”


    “I see… But why can’t you just tell him the truth? He’s an adult. I’m sure he’ll understand.”


    “We grew up together,” Ste sat down slowly. “We worry about each other a lot. It’s not that we’re


    overreacting, it’s just that…”


    A bitter smile crept up on her face and she added, “We are both each other’s only remaining rtive. I


    completely understand why he would be so worked up about my safety.”


    If she had been in his shoes, she would be just as restless as he was, if not more.


    “So you’re going to reassure him with a white lie?”


    Bradley didn’t quite understand such a tight bond between a brother and a sister, but he could


    sympathize with Ste’s dilemma.


    “Next time hees looking for you, I’ll cover for you.”


    “Thank you, Mr. Lane.”


    “So where do you actually live right now?”


    Ste paused. She didn’t think that he’d ask the question.


    “I’m renting a ce in an apartmentplex just two blocks away like the other actors.”
