Chapter 99
At that moment, Eloise hurriedly ran inside and handed Quincey some tissue. The latter’s face was a little purple, probably because she had been holding her breath for too long. What was worse, they reshat this scene many times. No one could have withstood it.
“I–I’m fine,” Quincey said.
Eloise rose to her feet and looked at Maureen. “Did you do it on purpose?
Maureen folded her arms and responded, “If that’s what you want to hear, sure.”
“Well, then. We’re going to Mr. Hawking there and asking him to be the judge of the situation. I hope you won’t change your story out of nowhere!”
Maureen’s eyes flickered, and she sneered. “Good on you, Eloise. You’ve been so different ever since you married into the Huntington family,
“Go ahead and gloat about your status while you still can, Eloise. Your days of suffering are right around the corner.”
The filming crew was about to reshoot the scene. Maureen noticed and scoffed before spitting into the sink full of water-
“That’s too much, Maureen!” Eloise cried out in anger.
as expected
“How about you take a sip of the water in the sink, Mrs. Huntington? Then, I might see a way to let Quincey off the hook.” Maureen raised an eyebrow
and said in a taunting tone.
Eloise and Quincey swapped glances. Both of them knew exactly what the other meant.
At the next moment, Quincey gripped Maureen’s shoulders, and Eloise yanked at Maureen’s hair from the back. The next thing Maureen knew, her head was mercilessly shoved underwater.
Maureen tried to fight back, but she was outnumbered.
“Feel free to drink your own spit, Maureen!” Eloise shouted.
Everyone at the film set immediately quieted down and cast glances this way. Stanley had just entered. When he saw the moment, he got so mad that he kicked the director’s chair to the floor and stormed off
Eloise and Quincey let Maureen go, who immediately pulled herself out of the water. Maureen coughed as she pointed at the duo. “Just wait and see, you two. I will not let this slide!
Now that Stanley left in a fit of fury, the shooting had to be suspended. Eloise and Quincey might’ve shared a cathartic moment earlier, but they still had to do the right thing and apologize to him.
Both of them went over to Stanley’s hotel room with a small gift and locked on the door. They had to knock several times before he opened it. When he saw that it was them, he took a deep breath before he let them in.
“Take a seat, ladies. I’m going to make some tea.”
“No, it’s fine.” Quincey hurriedly said.
“Wouldn’t want you two to hold my head underwater because I didn’t treat you properly as my guest.” Stanley made his way to the kitchen as he spoke.
Quincey hurried over and followed him, so she could explain to him what happened exactly. Meanwhile, Eloise put the gift on the coffee table. She raised her gaze and looked across the room. Her eyes instantly widened when she saw what was happening there.
“What are you looking at?” Quincey came out of the kitchen and asked.
Eloise hastily waved her over and asked her to take a look.
“Oh my God. That’s Shawn and Jeane!” Quincey’s interest was piqued immediately. She leaned on the window and took a closer look before she took pictures with her phone.
“Shawn and Jeane are both married people. Shame on them!”
Stanley came out with tea and coughed gently. “Were you telling the truth just now?”
Quincey hurriedly nodded. “I could look past it when Maureen deliberately made mistakes and reshot the same scene over and over again. However, she just had to spit in the sink. That was when Ellie and I lost it.”
Eloise agreed. “That is true.”
Stanley scoffed. “I can’t believe something like this happened in my film set. I’m going to give her the boot at once!”
