Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love-Chapter 2348 - 54: Winona Wallace’s First Kissing Scene

"Cut—"

As the camera pulled back and blurred, finally completing the last shot, Director Henson’s voice came through the loudspeaker.

"David, Leslie... fantastic, absolutely fantastic! You two gave me a surprise, a huge surprise!" Director Henson walked over excitedly.

Fully dressed except for the removed belt for the sake of the shooting, David Redington showed an indifferent expression as he moved away from Leslie Howard.

Before leaving, at an angle where no one could see, he tugged down the black dress suit Leslie Howard was wearing.

Earlier, the two had performed an intimate scene on the office desk, and Leslie’s dress had ridden up amidst the action, revealing a large stretch of her snow-white thigh skin.

Falling under David’s gaze was fine for him.

But letting it fall under anyone else’s gaze was unacceptable.

Leslie felt those dry, slender fingers brush against the side of her thigh, knowing this was David’s way of protecting her.

For some inexplicable reason, a strange feeling welled up inside her.

Suppressing that feeling, Leslie sat up from the desk, pulling her dress down as she slid off the edge.

At that moment, however, she heard a man’s deep voice above her: "Wait... don’t move."

Leslie turned back suspiciously, not understanding why David was holding her and not letting her leave.

"Block for me." Another voice, pleasantly clear.

Then, Leslie felt something pressing against her skirt from behind.

Leslie: "!!!" He actually had a response.

The woman’s expression turned peculiar and even somewhat shy.

But Leslie quickly let it go.

After all, with such actions, such scenes during the shoot, he was on top of her; even though the camera had zoomed out, to keep it realistic, he had to move a bit.

For a man, having a response was natural.

To Leslie, David’s reaction was akin to a "work injury."

She too was someone who kept her professional and personal lives distinctly separate.

Thus, Leslie got off the desk but didn’t walk away, standing in front of David to block him.

At this moment, Director Henson came over: "How could you two come up with such a plot, such a dramatic portrayal with so much conflict and tension?"

"But this means we have to revise the script... after all, Daisy Smith ends up with Alan Moore, and now with Alan and Grace having had a relationship, wouldn’t that..."

"No, it won’t," David replied indifferently, standing behind Leslie.

If it weren’t for Leslie knowing about his current "awkwardness," just by looking at his expression, no one would perceive his state below.

"Grace and Daisy were originally the double female leads of this drama. The previous script weakened Grace too much; she practically had no power against Daisy. Such an arrangement, rather than being a double female lead drama, was more like a heroine and a supporting role.

The original script lacked conflict. Changing it to the current state, and altering the subsequent plot in sequence, would provide more highlights."

"Well..." Director Henson’s temple throbbed a little.

Clearly, during the previous discussion, it was David who said Leslie had too much screen time and even requested to cut down on her intimate scenes.

Yet, after just one day of filming, not only did he increase Leslie’s screen time, but he also accelerated the intimate scene straight into a bed scene.

Cough, cough...

Director Henson couldn’t help but get a headache, wondering if David was aware of his growing favoritism towards Leslie?

Has he not realized that this had already broken his record for bed scenes?

With this thought, Director Henson instinctively said, "Alright, alright, that last scene was indeed great. Let’s continue revising our plot according to this progression. So, tonight after we hold a meeting to discuss the future trajectory of the plot, we’ll make the final decision."

That evening, after the discussion with the creative team, they decided to portray Grace Smith as Alan Moore’s underground girlfriend.

And to accelerate the storyline, Winona Wallace’s Daisy Smith would make her appearance in advance.

Two days later, they filmed the first kissing scene between Daisy Smith and Alan Moore.
