NovelOnlineStella's home, meanwhile, was in utter chaos. The candlelight dinner she meticulously prepared for Lucas had turned into a farce. All that effort went to naught because of the old woman's meddlesbehavior. Had Beatrice not interfered with Lucas's affairs, Stella was convinced that he would have visited her after seeing her message.
"I'm sure Lucas still has feelings for me. I'm sure of it... Just wait for me, Lucas. I'll overcany obstacles in my way, even if it involves having to deal with your relatives. I won't let you go that easily!" she gritted her teeth and declared. Search the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

When Stella arrived on set the next day, her face was noticeably swollen. She had drowned out her anger with a full bottle of red wine the previous night.
She took off her sunglasses to reveal her bloodshot eyes. Her manager was startled to see her condition. "What happened to you? What did you do last night? Don't you remember that you have an important scene to shoot today?!" The frustrated manager asked an assistant to bring over seggs and ice cubes. "There's another half hour before filming starts. Here, take these ice cubes and use them to reduce your awful swelling!" Stella, however, was still worked up because of the previous night's events and completely ignored the advice.
Determined to discover what drove Lucas to ignore her for Melody, Stella initiated an investigation into Melody's background. She wanted to know just how far Stella was able to win over the old lady's trust. Clearly, she had underestimated Melody, who seemed to be cunning enough to get on the old woman's good side. Perhaps Melody's strategy was to win over Lucas's elders, even if there was a chance that Lucas might not like her. That could be a reason why Lucas was playing into Melody's hands.
Stella drank a cup of americano that her agent handed over to her without batting an eye. Such was her routine to reduce swelling after late-night drinking sessions, as the water retention made it unsightly during filming.
Once the filming started, the director-who was very displeased with her condition-berated her assistant severely because he knew he could not scold her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Is this how you manage your stars? How stupid can you be to let her drink her heart out a day before a shoot? Her bloodshot eyes are so darn obvious! How am I supposed to continue filming, huh? I'm supposed to film a girl in the prof her youth, not a wasted alcoholic!" The assistant was already numb to all that scolding. Everyone took out their anger on him. That was a harsh reality of his job, which he had to endure as part of his role.
Realizing that she was in no condition to continue with the filming, Stella sent someone to buy scoffee and desserts to appease the director. "I'm sorry, director. I know that we had sfilming to do today but I just couldn't decline last night's invitation. I'm just an actress, after all... You know that..." Although the director accepted the cakes she offered, he did not let her off the hook. "You're a big star now. Why do you need to attend all these social events?" Stella maintained her composure and responded diplomatically by diverting the situation. "I still have ways to go from becoming a star. I'm relatively new in the industry, and I wouldn't call myself a star. I promise you that my team will ensure such incidents don't occur again in the future." "Fine," the director grunted. "Go get srest. We'll reshoot your scene once you look better." Search the Find_Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
