Chapter 423
The film crew received a lot of flower baskets again on this day. It wasn’t rare for the film crew to receive
flowers because it was amon urrence.
Many nouveau riche often bombarded the film sets with flowers to tter the female celebrities they liked,
and some rich women also did this to tter their favorite young idols. However, the flower baskets this
time were quite different, for they were sent to Taylor by Natasha.
Everyone on the film set knew that Natasha was in love with Taylor. She was eager to please him; not
only did she visit the film set in person every now and then these days, but she also had flower baskets
delivered to the set from time to time. Looking at the flowers ced on the set, the walk-ondies and
the staff on the film set began whispering among themselves.
“Tsk, tsk. Natasha seems serious, but her feelings don’t seem to be reciprocated!”
“That’s difficult to say. Our Prince Charming here may seem aloof and distant on the outside, but who
knows what he’s thinking deep down inside? Perhaps he is inwardly bursting with impatience to marry
into the Mitchell Family, but is now simply putting on an act!”
“That’s right. Even though he is flourishing in show business, he’s still just an artist after all. Marrying into
the Mitchells would be a very good choice!”
All of them sounded jealous as they spoke. Their eyes were filled with jealousy. How they wished they
were born into prominent families, or possessed the same cleverness and academic qualifications as
Natasha!
On this day, they were filming a scene where the male lead courageously rescued the traffickeddies,
who all looked travel-worn, weary, and wretched after being hidden in a car. The film director forbade
them to wear makeup; instead, he told everyone to apply some dirt on their faces and roll on the ground.
Sophia obediently applied some dirt on her face and rolled on the floor. However, after she had done so,
she discovered that everyone else simply put a little dirt on their faces after having applied their usual
exquisite base makeup, and they didn’t roll on the floor at all.
While otherdies looked delicate and charming with feigned pitifulness, Sophia looked a real sorry sight.
Covered in dirt, she huddled in a corner while eating some snacks. As she listened to everyone’s
discussion, she couldn’t help saying with a touch of jealousy, “That’s not necessarily so, for Taylor is a
married man! It’ll be difficult for Natasha to get married to him!” However, her words were instantly met
with unanimous ridicule from everyone else.
“We can tell at first nce that you’re new in show business. Nothing is absolute in the field, for it is
normal for celebrities to get married or divorced, and cheat on their spouses for the sake of publicity!”
“It’s silly to talk about love in show business; there is no true love to speak of here. Everyone in the circle
is vain. Can Taylor really stay faithful to that wife of his when differentdies want to have sex with him
every other day?”
“Romance in show business is the most worthless; it’s not as practical as money and fame!”
“Haven’t you heard it? There’s an unspoken rule on the set whereby all the supporting actresses are
supposed to sleep with the lead actors. Who do you think out of so many supporting actresses here
stand the best chance to sleep with Miss Taylor?”
“Miss Taylor can sleep with whoever he wants, of course! The way I see it, he’ll most likely sleep with
Natasha!”
“I bet Miss Taylor doesn’t dare to touch Natasha, though. If he really sleeps with her, he’ll be bound to the
Mitchell Family for the rest of his life, and he’ll no longer be able to y around as he pleases. I wouldn’t
be willing to end up like that if I were him!”
Sophia was quite at a loss for a reply, for she found herself unable to join their conversation at all. My
idol won’t be as deplorable as they imagined! He has always been chaste! she thought to herself.
Still, Sophia was a bit worried. In general, men were animals that easily sumbed to lust. Now that so
many beauties were offering themselves to Michael, what if he really gave in to their seduction one day?
What if there really were supporting actresses who wanted to sleep with him? With that thought in mind,
she decided to keep a closer eye on Michael.
Michael was ying the male main antagonist this time. Since there wasn’t any romantic subplot for his
character, he never had to worry about having to film intimate scenes. Therefore, he was totally
unperturbed even with his wife watching him on set.
Thedies waited on the film set for a long time just to film a scene that mightst for only a minute or
two. Even so, they scrambled to have their faces featured in the scene despite itsting such a short
time.
Sophia was unable to fight against them, so she was pushed to the back of the crowd every single time.
Thus, she could only have her limbs featured in the shots at most since she couldn’t have her face
featured at all.
However, she wasn’t here to steal the show from other actresses. She was here specifically to keep an
eye on her husband! Therefore, she sat silently among the crowd while watching Michael closely.
Michael was a very professional actor; not only was he good at acting, but he was also very charismatic,
and he rarely broke intoughter during filming. However, he frequently broke intoughter during filming
on this day.
Whenever he was drawn into his character only to see the dirt-covered Sophia staring round-eyed at him
nearby, he couldn’t help but give her an affectionate smile. In the end, he only managed to finish filming
his scenes with great difficulty by forcing himself not to look at her.
The morning passed in a sh. Aside from the fact that Michael often unexpectedly broke intoughter
during filming, the filming went rtively smoothly, for the scenes were filmed ording to schedule.
When the film crew handed out the lunchboxes at noon, the walk-ons lined up to get their own, whereas
Sophia went to eat in Michael’s SUV.
Michael had put on quite a show this time since he had even brought a food truck and some chefs with
him. The dishes were ready when Michael, Sophia, and the others arrived, so they sat at two separate
tables to eat.
Michael sat with Harry at a table, whereas Sophia sat with Hale, Danny, and Maria to avoid suspicions.
Since this was the first time Sophia yed as a walk-on, she was both a little excited and physically
exhausted, and it took only a little while before she wolfed down two bowls of rice.

When she put down her fork and spoon, she saw the directoring to scrounge a free meal and
discuss the scenes that would be filmed that afternoon with the two lead actors. However, the lead
actress was nowhere to be seen. She seemed to be filming other scenes on a separate set.
Looking at the flowers Natasha had sent to Michael on the film set, she quietly nudged Hale and shot a
nce at the flowers. Then, she shot another nce at Michael and jutted out her chin toward Hale,
signaling for him to approach Michael.
Instantly understanding what she meant, Hale finished his meal and went up to Michael, asking, “Mr.
Murray, what should we do with the flowers?”
Sophia pricked up her ears and listened attentively as she was desperate to know what Michael would
do with the flowers. Michael ate while sneaking a nce at Sophia, who had her ears pricked up while
eavesdropping on their conversation. Thus, he said with a smile, “What else can we do? We can’t waste
them. Just bring them back to the hotel.”
Before long, everyone on the film set learned that Taylor had epted the flower baskets Natasha sent
and even brought them back to the hotel. In an instant, the film set was abuzz with gossips, and it took
only a while before the story was distorted.
“Have you heard it? Taylor epted Natasha’s flowers! They’re seeing each other now!”
“That’s right! I heard that Taylor moved out from the hotel where the film crew is staying two days ago to
the mountain resort where Natasha is staying! They must have been sleeping together for several days!”
Natasha had also sent many flower baskets overst time, but Michael gave them to the film crew so
that they could be used as props. However, he readily epted her flower baskets this time, which was
an obvious sign that something was going on.
Natasha, who was staying at the mountain resort, was exuberant when she learned of this. As expected,
my perseverance works! Taylor will fall for me one day!
Angry that Michael had epted Natasha’s flowers, Sophia sneaked off to another film set that
afternoon to y a walk-on part.
For time-saving purposes, the film crew was split into two groups to allow multiple scenes to be filmed
simultaneously. Michael and Harry were in a group, whereas the lead actress was in the other. Currently,
the lead actress was filming other scenes on a seperate set.
The lead actress of the film ‘War Dragon’ was Nicole Walker, whonded herself the role despite her
obscurity as the lead actress in a local TV drama.
Having yed as walk-ons in many dramas, she was the favorite of middle-aged and old countrywomen,
until a highly-publicized tabloid scandalnded her on the A-list and made her a true celebrity. After that,
she signed up with Imperial Management Studio and became the lead actress of the film ‘War Dragon’.
