“You don’t need to be in such a hurry!” Valerie said.
“Why shouldn’t be! You went there to help, <b>and </b>they were making slow progress <b>despite </b>promising to finish early! Matthew <b>was </b>somewhat displeased. Valerie was pregnant and had been busy with the crew until today.
“Don’t put so much pressure on him. The director <b>is </b>quite pitiful. When siceris was in sight, the whole issue with <b>Angel </b>came up. The <b>crew </b>wouldn’t have had to redo <b>any </b>work if it weren’t for her.
<b>“</b>You don’t know how tough it is to reshoot. For a neer like me, it’s not a big deal, but <b>it’s </b>certainly frustrating for the key crew members. They must redo the same scenes and <b>rework </b>the emotions they <b>originally </b>captured. It’s tough on them!”.
Matthew, somewhat displeased, asked, at so! Expecially for Dale Bhus, right?”
Hearing him say that, Valerie immediately realized he was upset. She <b>quickly </b>took his hand and said, “He can’tpare to you. You’re the best; in my heart, you’ll always be number one!”
Matthew couldn’t help but feel pleased “Really
