Sweet Wife So Charming: CEO: Hold Back Your Heart-Chapter 250: Torment

As soon as Moira Young heard that the second female lead was Vivi, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

This Vivi had always been at odds with her, and today’s scene would likely be hard to shoot. Sean Dunn, unaware of the situation, smiled and encouraged Moira Young.

It wasn’t long after Sean Dunn left that a sharp female voice rang out behind Moira Young.

"These newcomers nowadays, really. They have no sense of time; look at the time, and they still haven’t finished their makeup?"

Moira Young turned her head and caught a glimpse of Vivi’s malicious expression, and responded mildly: "Looks like you’re all set then?"

"Moira Young, don’t be so smug. Today’s scene will be quite entertaining; I’m sure it will be unforgettable for you."

Saying this, Vivi covered her mouth and giggled coyly, yet there was a hint of viciousness in her eyes.

Moira Young didn’t pay her any attention and turned her head back to continue with her styling.

Seeing that she was ignored, Vivi huffed twice disdainfully and sashayed away on her fifteen-centimeter high heels.

It wasn’t until they reached the filming set and the director handed over the script that Moira Young understood what Vivi’s earlier words meant.

It seemed that today’s scene would indeed be difficult to shoot.

Thirty minutes later.

The director shouted through the megaphone: "All cameras ready, actors in position, let’s start the first scene today."

Upon hearing this, Moira Young placed the script on the nearby coffee table, patted her clothes for nonexistent wrinkles, and slowly stood up.

Just as she was about to step forward, Vivi deliberately rushed by from behind, giving her a hard bump.

"Moira Young, the good show is about to begin."

In the scene, the female lead was afraid of water, and this particular shoot involved the second female lead bullying the female lead by pushing her head into water.

When both Moira Young and Vivi were ready, the director clapped the board and yelled to start.

Vivi quickly immersed herself in the scene, her gaze toward Moira Young turning vicious and fierce: "You little bitch, today I want to show you what happens when you seduce my man."

Not waiting for Moira Young to react, she grabbed her hair and violently shoved Moira Young into the bucket of water next to her, holding her down no matter how much Moira Young struggled, as if she intended to kill her.

"Cut!"

The director frowned lightly: "Why didn’t you say the line after pushing her in?"

Vivi quickly exclaimed: "Sorry, director, I forgot the line."

"Let’s do it again." Being an established actress, the director naturally gave her some face, and since she forgot her line, they had to redo the scene.

However, after shooting several takes, Vivi either forgot her lines or her actions, or she overacted, leaving the director unsatisfied with any of them.

Vivi repeatedly apologized, and the director had no choice but to pretend to scold her briefly before doing more takes.

After shooting for over an hour and everyone was out of form, the director had to call cut again.

"Take a break, touch up your makeup, we’ll shoot again in ten minutes."

Moira Young’s makeup and hair were ruined, her face already showing signs of paleness from being submerged in water for so long.

Joe compassionately wiped Moira Young’s hair, quietly grumbling: "That Vivi is obviously bullying you, how can she use her seniority to mistreat others."

Moira Young frowned; she knew perfectly well Vivi was deliberately picking on her, but amid all sorts of rumors already circulating about her, she didn’t want to create more drama.

If news got out about her and Vivi’s discord, it would undoubtedly stir up another storm.

She figured if Vivi didn’t go too far, she’d let this slide.

Despite her thinking this way, Vivi clearly didn’t care to show any respect.

Watching her touch up her makeup, Vivi came over with another jibe: "Moira, really sorry about earlier, my memory is quite poor, you must forgive me."

"Vivi, this is too much. This scene only has three lines and you’ve consistently got them wrong; it’s clearly intentional bullying of Moira," Joe couldn’t hold back, standing up for Moira Young.

Vivi’s face changed slightly, glaring fiercely at Joe: "What nonsense are you spouting? Say more and I’ll rip your mouth apart!"

Joe immediately turned pale, shrinking back in silence.

"Just an intern assistant, yet you dare to speak to me this way, you’re sick of living!" Vivi seemed unsatisfied and even reached out to hit Joe.

Seeing this, Moira Young jumped up, quickly pulling Joe behind her, frowning: "Vivi, I’ve been patient with you out of respect as a senior, but don’t take it too far, or don’t blame me for being rude!"

Vivi sneered twice, not taking Moira Young seriously: "Who do you think you are! When I debuted, you probably were still playing in mud, yet you dare threaten me?"

"Vivi, maybe let’s call it quits. You have a cocktail party to attend tonight, let’s finish shooting quickly," Vivi’s assistant advised from the side.

Thinking of the cocktail party, Vivi’s mood suddenly improved a lot, glaring fiercely at Moira Young and Joe before turning to leave.

Joe finally let out a relieved sigh after she walked away.

Everyone says Vivi is a nice person; today she discovered rumors aren’t to be trusted.

Not long after, the director called everyone to resume shooting.

Before getting ready, Moira Young coolly remarked to Vivi: "Indeed you’re taking advantage in today’s scene, but there’ll be plenty of scenes where the female lead exacts revenge on the second female lead. You’d better think about it."

This was a threat, and a blatant one at that.

Of course, Vivi understood Moira Young’s meaning, so she reluctantly put aside personal grievances for the moment.

Without Vivi deliberately causing trouble, the scene was wrapped up in just two takes, and the director called it a success.

Moira Young had only this one scene today, and after finishing filming, she packed her things to leave.

But to her surprise, Vivi approached her again, as arrogant and domineering as always.

"Moira Young, I warn you not to get too cocky, lest you take a big fall, a fall so bad you’ll break your head and bleed badly." Vivi disdainfully examined Moira Young, refusing to believe her abilities were inferior to a debuting rookie.

Moira Young didn’t want to argue with Vivi, or even acknowledge her, so she didn’t spare an extra glance and left the set with Joe.

Her disregard left Vivi’s face turning blue with anger, her once meticulously made-up face now contorted with rage.

Watching Moira Young’s retreating back, Vivi snarled: "Damn Moira Young, you better not land in my hands! Or I’ll make your life a living hell!"

But by then Moira Young had already walked far away, having no interest in whatever Vivi was contemplating.

Yet Joe, filled with worry, followed her, reminding her: "Moira, leaving like this, Vivi won’t let things go easily."

"You think standing there listening to her nonsense would make her let it go?" Moira Young smiled indifferently.

Joe was momentarily speechless, as if Moira’s reasoning indeed made some sense.
