Chapter 1211


    Chapter 1211 He Is The One Holding Everyone Back


    Is this the manifestation of true talent?


    Even though Jason was surprised and envious, he refrained fromplimenting Arielle due to his ego.


    Hence, he simplymented, “I’m d you’re not holding me back. Keep it up.”


    With that, he continued revising his lines for the next scene.


    The second scene involved two neighbors being exposed to the virus. Arielle and Jason were to enter


    in theter part of the scene.


    In the meantime, Arielle received an email from Vinson informing her that he had returned to the


    country.


    On top of that, he shared with her his n to lure their enemy out.


    After pondering briefly, Arielle replied: Got it.


    Her hesitation was due to the fact that Vinson’s n required her to put up an act, and she wasn’t sure


    if she was up to it.


    I might as well take the opportunity to practice since I’m already acting in this movie.


    Soon, the filming for the second scene started.


    In that scene, Arielle was to hurry over and check on her neighbor who had copsed. After that, she


    was to run at the monster who had caught the virus.


    Given how difficult it was to portray a sense of resolute selflessness, Sam was prepared to do a few


    takes for the scene. In fact, he even got Arielle to practice her lines first so that she could conserve her


    energy. Or else, the multiple retakes would likely drain her stamina due to all the running that was


    involved.


    Unexpectedly, the moment the camera started rolling, Arielle disyed the emotions that Sam had


    expected of her wlessly. Instead, it was Jason who acted stiffly as he could not control his facial


    expression.


    “Cut!”


    Sam frowned as he called Jason over to the monitor.


    “Take a look at it yourself. You’re nothing but a bunch of nerves in that scene. At this point in time, you


    and Arielle are unaware of the existence of the virus. Instead, you assume there was a robbery.


    Consequently, you should express anxiousness and not horror. Do you understand?”

    After taking a look at Arielle on the monitor and then himself, Jason was filled with disbelief.


    “How can she-”


    How can she act better than me? I’m being outshone by her despite being a graduate of drama school


    with multiple movies under my belt. Moreover, I even told her not to hold me back. Evidently, I’m the


    one that’s holding us back now.


    At that moment, an avnche of emotions struck him.


    Sensing Jason’s embarrassment, Sam patted him on the shoulder. “Alright now, shooting retake is


    prettymon. There’s no need to take it personally. As long as you work on the points I’ve raised,


    you’ll be fine. Also, you can pick up a thing or two from Arielle. Considering that she has the talent and


    you have the experience, both of you will definitely make a great team!”


    Jason could barely smile despite his attempt.


    After smoking half a cigarette to relieve the stress he felt, he threw himself back into filming.


    From then on, he put in more effort than he usually did. In many of the difficult scenes, he also


    managed to demonstrate the required emotions to match the scenes.


    At that moment, Sam was happy with Jason’s performance and felt that thetter was serious in his


    quest to excel in his acting career.


    As for Jason, it was a matter of his pride as a man, for he didn’t want to be outshone by the person he


    fancied.


    After filming waspleted ahead of schedule, Sam wanted to treat everyone to dinner, to which


    Jason naturally agreed.


    However, Arielle replied apologetically, “Mr. Sleight, I’m afraid I won’t be able to join you, as I have


    another appointment in the evening. Why don’t you let me pay for dinner tonight instead? Just give me


    the billter.”


    Jason’s expression darkened upon hearing Arielle’s words.
