chapter 141 – The Three Stooges
Phoebe Barnes got some chills and finally got Kelsey Long to call the police and turn the man over to them.
The producer ran over and pretended to be concerned, “Miss Barnes, I didn’t expect this to happen either, just as long as you’re okay.”
Phoebe Barnes smiled politely, but her voice was extremely sarcastic, “Good, I’m fine just fine, you guys don’t treat your colleagues in the crew as human beings, if it wasn’t for the fact that I have Lu less behind me, would you have taken it for granted that I was violated today?”
“Miss Barnes, what do you mean by that?” The producer’s face was a little ugly, “I don’t want to see this kind of thing happen either, we got all the technicians and didn’t find their character corrupted, we will definitely not let this kind of thing happen again in the future.”
Phoebe Barnes just smiled coldly at this kind of official talk, did not bother to continue to argue with him, just lightly said, “I hope you can remember.”
This kind of thing in the entertainment industry is staged every day, she does not have that ability to manage one by one, nor does she have that obligation to say anything about others, she can manage herself just fine, she just begs in her heart not to let her see it again next time.
In the lounge, the woman shrunken into a ball on the couch was still trembling.
Phoebe Barnes sat next to her with a stony face, wondering what she was thinking.
Kelsey Long shook his head and sighed, “The best way is to keep her away from here, no power and no background, struggling at the bottom of this, just like hell life, today saved her once, there will be another time, will not change anything. Besides, her pretty face, dressing up is not worse than those stars, naturally became the prey of the group of masters behind the scenes.”
Phoebe Barnes brow wrinkled more tightly, pretty face cold sullen, raised a hand to stroke Megan Green’s shoulder, a moment, she suddenly looked up at Kelsey Long, eyes bright, “I remember you said, I am still missing an assistant.”
“…”
A few days later, Megan Green recovered and remained on the set, but her status was changed from the set’s stylist to her personal assistant.
What used to be a two-person trip has also become a three-person trip.
Occasionally, when Kelsey Long is not available, she is taken care of by Megan Green, which makes it easier for Phoebe Barnes.
When she returned from work in the afternoon and sat in the car driven by Kelsey Long, she couldn’t help but ask, “Why do you insist on staying in this business? Obviously other jobs can also let you settle down.”
Entertainers usually have a dream of stardom, either to make more money.
Megan Green bowed her head and laughed bitterly, “I just love this business and doing more looks that audiences love, I just didn’t expect it, it’s far harder than I thought it would be, but I still want to keep going.”
Phoebe Barnes’ eyes twitched slightly, “Wouldn’t being my assistant be a bit of a commitment for you?”
“No way!” Megan Green jerked her eyes up and immediately shook her head, “If you just trust me, I can be your personal stylist too. I’ll work hard.”
Looking at her with a look of fear that she was being driven away, Phoebe Barnes snorted out a laugh, “Just kidding, I can be the stylist you want to be, but I can’t afford to pay two salaries right now.”
She also smiled out, bending her eyebrows, showy and fresh, “Sister Phoebe can give as much as she wants.”
“Huh …”
…
A few days later, the crew had to go to another city for filming, which was suspended, and Phoebe Barnes was free.
On a whim, she made a meal at home and planned to bring it to Kemp Ross at work.
The lunchbox was packed and she was not in a hurry, she directly transferred to the subway and went to the office, complete with mask and sunglasses, and she was not recognized on the way, which made her feel good.
At the front desk of the building, she was stopped.
“Miss, may I ask who you are looking for?”
“I’m looking for Fu, Ross General.”
“Do you have an appointment, please?”
“… There is no …” She knew she usually had to make an appointment, but there just wasn’t one.
“Sorry, miss, you can’t go in.”
Receptionist lady face polite smile, but the heart is disdain, these women really do not know good and bad, every day there are so many to find them Ross total, fight are not clean.
Phoebe Barnes raised her wrist to look at her watch and wondered, “But isn’t it already lunch break?”
The smileon the receptionist’s face finally dispersed, and her tone was somewhat cold, “Miss, you do not have an appointment, we will not let you in, besides, you are armed like this, it is easy to make people suspect that you are some kind of gangster, then I can not let you in, you do not leave again I will have to call security.”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes was aggrieved, she didn’t want to be like this, and she was in trouble if she was recognized.
At that moment, she glanced out of the corner of her eye to see a figure coming out of the inside and going out, and her eyes were filled with joy, and she quickly ran over, “Campbell Butler!”
Campbell Butler coldly heard someone call himself and froze slightly, then looked at the unknown figure running towards him.
Looking closely at the figure, his face changed slightly and he lowered his voice, saying, “Madam? What brings you here all of a sudden?”
“I …” Phoebe Barnes suddenly some embarrassed, fortunately there are sunglasses mask blocked, hesitated for a second, she awkwardly smile, “I came to see him a little thing. ”
Campbell Butler frowned, “But Ross is still in a meeting.”
“…” Phoebe Barnes was stunned for a moment, then a little lost, and said lowly: “Still in a meeting, so busy ah, do not even need to eat?”
Campbell Butler saw the package she was carrying in her hand and understood what was going on, and then smiled, “Well, the meeting will be over soon too, so I’ll take you to his office and wait.”
When she said this, a certain assistant had forgotten the president’s instructions not to mention anything about Phoebe Barnes in the company.
On the top floor of the building, Phoebe Barnes followed Campbell Butler to Kemp Ross’ office, which was indeed empty.
It was empty, unusually cold and ascetic.
“Ma’am, you just wait here for a few minutes, Ross will be out soon.”
Phoebe Barnes scanned the large president’s office with some formality and nodded her head, “Oh oh, you go ahead and get busy.”
Campbell Butler smiled, “I’ll go first then.”
“Go ahead.”
In fact, Campbell Butler is eager to stay, he is eager to meet his own president to see the wife suddenly appeared here when the expression, estimated to be very exciting.
After all, this is the wife’s first visit here.
After Campbell Butler left, Phoebe Barnes placed the package carefully on the table and then took off her sunglasses mask to reveal a delicate white face.
She was a little frightened to survey the gray and white tones of the office, three sides are huge floor-to-ceiling windows, gray gauze curtains soft swing with the wind, lining the room bright and a few calm, like the man’s temperament.
I don’t know if Campbell Butler deliberately lied to her, or if there was something wrong with the meeting, Phoebe Barnes waited in the office for more than an hour and finally fell asleep on the couch.
Kemp Ross returned to the office to see that scene, the woman half crooked body leaning on the back of the sofa, bare fine white arms casually resting on the side, half of the face under the long soft hair, pink and delicate, in the surrounding gray tones set off by a hint of cold white ancient charm beauty, quiet and soft.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
