I Am the Sweetheart of Mr. CEO-Chapter 497 - 495 Chasing Girls Behind My Back (4)

While Kris Cooper was chatting with the director, a make-up artist approached and invited him over for make-up.

Watching the young girl move away, Kris Cooper began to speak softly.

"When the script is changed, let’s not inform her in advance."

The director paused, then nodded lightly.

"Okay!"

Since the scenes had been filmed before, everyone was familiar with the plot. As soon as Vera Wave finished her make-up, they immediately moved on to formal filming.

Because the extras were recruited locally, there were inevitable mistakes during filming. It took three takes before the entire scene was successfully completed.

By the time they wrapped up that scene, it was already noon, and the staff had prepared boxed lunches.

Worried that Kris Cooper might not be accustomed to the food, the director had specially arranged for Assistant Director Daffa Perkin to personally select and purchase a meal.

While the other actors received boxed lunches, the director invited the main cast members, Irene Spencer and Logan Miles, to have lunch with Kris Cooper and Vera Wave using the specially ordered food.

"Two more scenes this afternoon, and then we can wrap up the movie."

With filming about to wrap up, the director’s mood was noticeably brighter.

This film had faced too many unexpected incidents: the change of lead actress, the explosion... He had been utterly frazzled by it all.

"Our film has truly weathered many storms!" Vera Wave said, raising her glass. "Once it premieres, it’s sure to be a box office hit!"

"Vera is right." The director also lifted his glass. "Here’s to our movie being a big hit."

Everyone clinked their glasses and began to eat. Then, Irene Spencer spoke up with a smile.

"Is everyone free tonight? What if... I treat everyone to dinner, and we can unwind a bit?"

"You guys go ahead. Vera and I have other things to attend to." Kris Cooper served Vera some food with his chopsticks. "Don’t worry about the bill; I’ll pick up the tab later."

Upon hearing this, Irene Spencer’s face immediately fell.

"That won’t do," the director said with a laugh. "In a couple of days, we’ll have a wrap party, and the crew will cover the expenses!"

"That’s right, that’s right," Daffa Perkin chimed in. "We should also invite our Mr. Cold to join us for the celebration then."

"Sounds good," Kris Cooper replied with a smile.

Thus, Irene Spencer’s well-intentioned invitation was declined by everyone, and no one even considered her opinion.

Feeling ignored and resentful, she sat on her chair, her left hand, resting on her knee, crumpling her costume in frustration.

At this moment, the director turned his gaze to Vera Wave.

"Speaking of which, shouldn’t you two be planning your wedding soon?"

Firstly, he was genuinely concerned. Secondly, he also had a bit of a selfish motive. If Kris Cooper and Vera Wave made some kind of move at this time, it could serve as excellent pre-release publicity for the movie. Right now, this mysterious supporting actress was the focus of everyone’s attention. If her identity were revealed, it would undoubtedly boost the movie’s visibility significantly. Where did box office revenue come from? Popularity drove the box office, and what director didn’t want their movie to be a massive hit?

"This..."

Vera Wave looked hesitantly towards Kris Cooper.

Technically, as an actress, she was expected to participate in the film’s promotion. However, she personally preferred not to make public appearances that would affect her normal life.

After all, her ambitions lay elsewhere.

Vera Wave didn’t understand these ulterior motives, but Kris Cooper had long seen through the director’s intentions.

"Vera has other work; don’t schedule her for promotional activities."

She had no real interest in the entertainment industry, nor did he want her to get mixed up in that corrupting environment. Once filming for this movie concluded, he just hoped she could happily focus on her regular work.
