Chapter 278


    However, since Sylvia wanted to film a movie, Franklin would definitely support her in her career. After


    all, she was his wife.


    He must be fully supportive no matter what she wanted to do.


    Therefore, that afternoon, Brock received another 300 million dors from Jasper.


    He gaped at the check in disbelief and hurriedly called Sylvia. "Hello, Miss Andrews. Uh..."


    Before he told her Franklin had invested another 300 million dors, Sylvia said, "Mr. Dav, I''ve let my


    Her voice was calm. Brock parted his lips in excitement. "Miss Andrews, here is the thing..."


    "Mr. Dav, the prop team seems to have some problems. Can youe over for a moment?" a staff


    member suddenly yelled at Brock, so he had to bite back the words at his lips. "I''m sorry, Miss


    Andrews. I have to deal with something urgent. I''ll call you back."


    Then he ended the call and went to deal with the matter.


    He wanted the popr actress, Gianna Krause, to be the female lead. In Wynter''s yscript, there was


    no love story. The female lead was the male lead''s assistant. When others mocked and questioned the


    male leading role, only the assistant defended him.


    Since childhood, the assistant had lived in a vige with a river. All people in her town relied on it.


    However, one day, a paper manufacturer was established on the bank and always discharged wasted


    water into the river. Gradually, people in the vige became sick. After using and drinking the polluted


    water, the poption in the town decreased.


    The assistant''s rtives passed away one after another.


    Therefore, the male lead protected the environment, and his assistant fully supported him.


    The female lead was a very likable character.


    Gianna had joined the crew of the movie, "Angel and Demon on Earth", but she hadn''t signed the


    official contract yet.


    When her agent told her Brock invited her to y the female lead, a young woman from a vige who


    became her idol''s assistant, Gianna snorted ironically.


    "Brock Dav? He was once famous but had be unknown for many years. Who would pay for the


    ticket to his movie? The audience or the sponsors?"


    "I agree with you. Mr. Simon''s movie will definitely be popr. It''s a romance with a good market base,"


    her agent echoed. "Brock Dav was criticized and hated by the audience in the past."


    "Exactly. If I joined his crew, I would also be insulted," Gianna sneered.


    "All right. I''ll reject him," her agent answered and made the decision. "I don''t think he can find a good


    actor for the male lead. Probably just an online celebrity. How could he bepared to your


    reputation?"


    "You are right." Gianna nodded.


    When Brock received the refusal from Gianna''s agent, he was taken aback.


    He knew he had vanished for several years. Suddenly, he bounced back, and no one would ept


    him.


    However, he didn''t give up.


    "Mr. Dav, why don''t you let my assistant take this role?" Eden yawned.


    "Your assistant had no acting experience." Brock didn''t think Eden was reliable.


    Eden sat next to him leisurely. "She used to y some small roles in the movies. Besides, you don''t


    need to pay her much money. She has a certain tacit understanding with me while working. The


    assistant role suits her well. After all, she is my assistant."


    Right then, a slim girl appeared in front of Brock. She wore a white T-shirt, denim shorts, and white


    sneakers, looking clean and refreshed.


    Her face was delicate, her eyes were big and round, and her nose was adorable. Clearly, she could suit


    the role very well.


    Brock nced at her several times.


    Eden asked, "What do you think? Not bad, huh?"


    "What''s not bad?" Poppy sat next to Eden gracefully.


    "Girl, are you interested in acting in a movie?"


    Eden stared at Poppy with affectionate eyes.


    He hired Poppyst month. She wasn''t brilliant but was good-looking. However, she always made


    mistakes while working for him.


    She was simr to the assistant in the yscript. In Eden''s opinion, Poppy was a girl from a vige


    withoutmon sense or the ability to do things right. Many people looked down on her.


    Poppy pointed at her nose. "What did you say? Me? Act in a movie? May I? I... I cannot do anything."


    "The assistant''s role is just like you. You can just be yourself. Idiot!" Eden took over the ss water


    from her. After taking a sip, he became angry and roared in irritation, "I asked you to make honey


    pomelo juice. Why did you get me honey lemonade again?"


    Anger was written all over his handsome face, and he red at Poppy.


    Poppy''s hands trembled. ''Shoot! I made it my favorite honey lemonade again."


    Earlier, she didn''t want to be a useless girl relying on Franklin''s allowance anymore, so she decided to


    find a job.


    Without a domestic degree, she hadn''t graduated from the university overseas. Besides, she was


    unwilling to go abroad again.


    Coincidentally, she saw Maskelyne Entertainment hiring an assistant for an actor. The requirements


    were not high, and the meal and amodation were included.


    Therefore, Poppy joined the interview and was selected.


    Since then, she had be Eden''s assistant, taking care of him daily.


    She also secretly moved out of her house and into thepany dormitory.


    Usually, she looked after Eden and dealt with his daily trifles.


    Since childhood, Poppy had been taken care of by her maids and servants. This was the first time she


    had to look after another person, so she encountered many difficulties.


    She couldn''t get used to the new lifestyle.


    Luckily, Eden was only nagging but a decent man. Some assistants of other actors and actresses told


    her many superstars appeared easygoing and kind on the screen, but in private, they were short-


    tempered. Some even abused or tortured their assistants, such as offering leftovers to the assistants or


    burning them with cigarette butts.


    Poppy felt lucky.


    Eden roared at her. In the past, she might blow up, but now, she was just a humble assistant to him.


    She had no right to argue with him.


    If it were another actress, probably, the water would be sshed onto her face.


    Poppy was indeed adept at consoling herself and adjusting her mood.


    After reminding herself for a while, she felt less upset after Eden roared at her.


    Instead, she hurriedly made a ss of honey pomelo juice.


    Poppy kept reminding herself inwardly that she was just Eden''s assistant instead of the daughter of the


    Maskelyne family, and no one on the film set knew him.


    She had sworn to be independent and impress Sylvia.


    Eden just roared at her, and it was nothing.


    It was just a trifle that she could easily ovee in her life. It was nothing.


    Brock watched the scene in silence, looking at Poppy up and down in criticism.


    The girl looked pretty with a graceful temperament. She didn''t look as timid as other assistants or get


    angry because of Eden''s angry tone.

    When she poured the water, she looked very clumsy. Brock could tell she didn''t fake it.


    Watching her fair, tender hands, Brock guessed that she should be from a wealthy family.
