Chapter 773 Take Her Place
Xaiden called for another retake, but each time, he managed to find a different reason to criticize Evelyn.
The other staff members at the set knew Xaiden was trying to teach Evelyn a lesson.
If she was unwilling to yield, they could make her fall all afternoon.
That was Xaiden's power as the assistant director, so no one could say anything to go against him.
When Xaiden was about to have Evelyn reshoot the scene for the fifth time, Donald suddenly appeared behind him.
“Mr. Stone, it seems like you haven't switched on your camera.”
Xaiden was startled when he heard Donald's voice.
He turned around and saw Donald staring at him with an amused expression.
“I-I'm doing a test scene, so I didn't turn on the camera. You're just an outsider, so what do you know about this?
Hurry up and leave. Don't interfere with our filming process.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDonald responded nonchalantly, “Is that so? What if you find a satisfactory shot during the test scene and miss
filming it? Does that mean she'll have to retake the scene?”
“That's right. What's the matter? Do you have a problem with that?”
“Of course, I do.” Donald grabbed Xaiden's collar. “Evelyn is an actress under Dragon Fide Corporation. You're
asking her to shoot the same scene repeatedly, so I wonder if you have anything against Dragon Fide Corporation?”
“W-What are you trying to do? Let me tell me. This place is Werner Brothers Studios' filming set. If you dare to
cause trouble here, I'll get security to chase you out!”
Xaiden didn't expect Donald would confront him for a minor artist like Evelyn.
After all, he was the assistant director of Werner Brothers Studios' movie. How could someone as insignificant as
Evelyn compare to his status?
“Get security?” Donald sneered. “All right. Why don't you do that now? I'd like to see who would dare to lay a finger
on me.”
After saying that, he booted the steel pipe that was as thick as an arm beside him.
A creaking sound reverberated as Donald's kick caused the thick pipe to be bent out of shape.
What the h*ll? Is that the kind of force that a normal person's leg can exert?
After witnessing Donald's display of strength, the security guards at the set who were about to step forward to
maintain order, quickly slipped away when no one was paying attention to them.
They took the job as security guards just to make a living, and they didn't think there was no need for them to risk
their lives.
Now that the security guards had backed away in fear, Donald patted Xaiden's face and said, “Mr. Stone, let me ask
you again. Do you have a problem with Dragon Fide Corporation?”
“N-No problem.”
“In that case, why don't we do this? You'll take Evelyn's place and demonstrate to us the effect you're trying to
achieve.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDonald grabbed Xaiden like he was holding a little boy and led the latter to where Evelyn stood.
Then, he said to those three actors who played the role of thugs, “I want you to beat up Mr. Stone the same way
you did Evelyn earlier and strive for realism. If I notice any of you holding back, don't blame me for not showing you
mercy.”
“We will. We'll definitely perform as we did.”
Hearing their reassurance, Donald stepped to one side and uttered indifferently, “Let's get started, then.”
As soon as Donald gave them the cue, the three thugs simultaneously assaulted Xaiden.
Xaiden instinctively tried to block with his hands, but those three actors were martial artists. When he shielded his
face, they hit his stomach, and vice versa. There was no way he could fend off three pairs of hands with only one.
After a round of violent beating, the three thugs booted Xaiden, causing him to fall to the ground with a thud.
Similar to what Evelyn experienced earlier, Xaiden's knees hit the marble tiles on the floor when he fell, and he let
out a shriek of agony.
His performance was even worse than Evelyn's.
