The Billionaire CEO Wants to Marry Me Every Day-Chapter 89: Why Is He Here?
Summer Monroe was even more perplexed: "Why are you dragging me along to fix a mistake that you made?"
Ignoring Assistant Shelton frantically waving outside the car, Damian Knight started the car and sped away.
On the road, Summer finally understood everything.
"That business card..." She glanced at Damian Knight and said, "She stole it from me."
Damian Knight’s emotions were complex.
For others, obtaining a card from him was as difficult as climbing the sky, yet Summer’s card was stolen by someone. It was truly... infuriating, but he didn’t know what exactly he was angry about.
In the end, Damian Knight decided to remain silent.
But his silence made the atmosphere inside the car seem frozen.
On the film set.
Because Clarissa Stanton had already signed the contract, she did not hold back, commanding with the arrogance befitting a star.
"I’ve already said, I don’t want my face made to look dull. That will affect my fan base!"
The producer smiled apologetically and explained: "But it’s a disaster film; it has to be this way... Otherwise, when the film is released, audiences might react negatively. Perhaps you could cooperate a bit? I’ll ask the makeup artist to use less dark powder on you." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
"Bang—"
Clarissa Stanton angrily slapped the table: "Can’t you understand human speech? When I say no, I mean no!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the door to the makeup room was pushed open.
The producer looked up, his face froze again, forcing a smile as he greeted: "Director Sutton, you’ve waited long... The actors will be ready soon."
"No need to discuss this with me." Simon Sutton tossed his work badge into the producer’s hands and said, "I’m not filming anymore; find another director."
The producer felt a chill down his spine, almost kneeling.
"Director Sutton... You can’t just say you’re not filming!"
The producer was humbly pleading on one side, while on the other side, Clarissa Stanton impatiently crossed her legs.
She understood clearly now that Simon Sutton was simply targeting her for not being classically trained!
Initially, she admired Simon Sutton’s status as a top director, but after learning more about the film, she didn’t regard Simon Sutton as highly.
Because this movie was the first major domestic disaster film and adapted from a popular comic that had dominated the best-selling charts for two years, coupled with a strong supporting cast, changing directors wouldn’t significantly impact the film.
So Clarissa Stanton crossed her legs and said, "If he doesn’t want to film, then get me another director immediately. He keeps claiming I lack professional actor ethics; I don’t see any director ethics in him either. If he doesn’t want to film, I don’t want him to film! Change the director now, or I’ll have Knight Group withdraw funding!"
Withdrawal of funding again...
The producer’s headache grew, unable to persuade either side effectively.
Simon Sutton shot Clarissa Stanton a cold look: "If this movie succeeds, I’ll write my name backwards! You’ve ruined this film!"
Such actors... No, people like this don’t even deserve to be called actors. He truly didn’t understand why Damian Knight had insisted on protecting her.
Most frustrating of all, he actually agreed to it!
He shouldn’t have agreed from the beginning!
Clarissa Stanton was so enraged by Simon Sutton’s words that she jumped up, chasing after him and grabbing his shirt hem to demand: "What did you say? Repeat that for me! Don’t you believe that I’ll have Young Master Knight blacklist you in the entire film industry?!"
At that moment, a tall figure walked in...
"Since when did I plan to blacklist Director Sutton?"
The deep and cold voice made everyone in the makeup room turn towards the entrance.
Clarissa Stanton was still wondering who was speaking so assertively. She looked up with displeasure, and upon realizing who it was, her blood seemed to freeze, and her face turned pale instantly.
