Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

Jane wore a faint smile on her face as she changed the subject, “I hope that in every scene from now on, you can dive deep into the role and deliver an outstanding performance. Understand?”

Tina was momentarily surprised. Did Jane mean to mock her for her previous poor performance?

Jane, this woman, seemed genuinely complex.

Tina thought Jane would be furious after the slap, but instead, Jane publicly praised her.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

With Jane’s magnanimous demeanor, wouldn’t others think Tina deliberately slapped Jane, putting her in a difficult position?

Tina clenched her hand hidden in the wide sleeve, a trace of hidden resentment crossing her eyes.

However, she quickly concealed her emotions and spoke softly, “I will.”

Larry, observing the situation, intervened, “Well, let’s wrap up this scene. Everyone, get ready for the next one. It’s the garden scene. Mr. Maltz, please take the stage.”

As Larry spoke, Osborn, already dressed in costume, entered the camera frame. Other actors also took their positions.

“Everyone ready? Blankets and ginger soup for the crew are prepared. In this scene, Zara is set up by the queen to fall into the water after drinking too much at the banquet. The king comes to the rescue, and they end up in a wet, passionate kiss in the lake, while others watch from the side.”

Larry briefed everyone, and they took their positions as directed.

Jane, following Larry’s cue, walked to the pavilion by the lake, pretending to be intoxicated. A eunuch came by and pushed Jane into the water without hesitation.

Immediately after, Osborn, without hesitation, jumped into the water to rescue her, and the two shared a passionate kiss in the lake.

Tina, playing the queen, stood at the forefront of the scene, watching the two in the lake clearly, although she knew their kissing scenes were staged.

But seeing Osborn holding Jane so affectionately, jealousy surged in her heart.

She clenched her fists tightly, determined to portray the queen’s noble demeanor.

Even when the director called “Cut,” Tina still held onto her fists tightly.

Osborn and Jane emerged from the lake together.

“It’s cold. Put this on quickly,” Osborn draped a blanket, handed by a crew member, over Jane, his gaze full of infinite tenderness.

“Thank you,” Jane said calmly, expressing her gratitude.

Afterward, she carried the ginger soup and went to rest and change clothes.

Tina remained standing, clenching her fists. Her mind replayed the touching scene of Osborn’s care for Jane.

Despite Jane kissing Patrick passionately just now in front of everyone, she was now seducing Osborn!

Why couldn’t Osborn spare her a second glance?

“Miss Amelia.”

Seeing Tina lost in thought, a crew member approached, “Your next scene is the dance, playing a fairy scattering flowers. You’ll be on the harness. Earlier, you mentioned checking the props yourself. Everything is ready now. Shall I take you to inspect them?”

Interrupted from her thoughts, Tina regained her composure and smiled, “Sure.”

Since the incident with Jane’s prop last time, Tina had been on edge. If it weren’t for Jane’s luck, she might have been disfigured.

Tina had become more cautious about her own props. A female actor’s face was her lifeline, and ruining it would be no different from killing her.

Accompanied by the crew to the harness location, several staff members were still carefully adjusting the equipment in pairs.

Seeing Tina arriving, they all put down their work and greeted her.

“Miss Amelia, rest assured. We’ve tested your prop more than a dozen times. There won’t be any problems. You can be a hundred percent confident when you go up later!” A crew member assured Tina, patting his chest.

However, Tina remained uneasy and had Florence personally check it.

At this moment, another staff member handed Tina a bottle of drink and greeted her, “Miss Amelia, I’m your loyal fan. You were fantastic just now, and I’m really looking forward to your dance scene later.”

“Thank you.” Tina, reassured after confirming the harness, finally relaxed.

The staff member, as if remembering something, said, “Actually, I’ve always felt sorry for Miss Amelia. We all know Miss North is an amateur who doesn’t know how to act, always meddling with you. What qualifications does she have? You’ve been in the industry for so long, your acting skills are excellent, and we all know it.”

Tina appreciated the compliment, smiling modestly, “You’re too kind. Everyone has their own opinions, and I’m still learning as I go.”

“Not to gossip behind people’s backs, but everyone can see that Miss North is not a competent actress. Claiming to be the big boss and joining the crew to shoot, still getting involved with others on set, and even entangling with Mr. Maltz, creating misunderstandings about their relationship. Her behavior is truly chaotic!”

The staff member expressed anger, sympathizing with Tina, “But I believe Mr. Maltz and Miss Amelia are the most compatible. Jane is just not worthy!”

These words struck a chord with Tina, and she slightly squinted, “Jane is indeed two-faced, on the one hand, unclear with Mr. Pansy, and on the other hand, deliberately getting close to Osborn.”

The staff member’s eyes flashed with a sense of accomplishment.

Her purpose of sowing discord was achieved.

After Tina left, the staff member sent a text to Freda, “Everything went smoothly!”

Then, filming continued, capturing Tina’s dance scene as a fairy scattering flowers at the banquet.

It went smoothly, without any mishaps.

As it concluded, Jane also prepared to leave.

After a whole day wearing seven or eight pounds of clothing and balancing a five or six-pound crown on her head, her neck felt like breaking.

Now, Jane just wanted a good night’s sleep.

After tidying up, Jane left the set. As she walked outside, she saw a black Rolls-Royce perfectly parked in front of her.

Patrick stepped down from the car, dressed in a black tailored suit that showcased his perfect physique. The twilight’s glow spilled on him, making him seem to glow with a golden aura, handsome and dazzling, attracting the attention of many women on the roadside.

“Patrick, why are you here?” Jane was surprised.

Wasn’t he supposed to be in a meeting at the Pansy Group?

With confident strides, Patrick walked towards Jane, his lips lifting slightly. “I’m here to pick you up.”
