Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart -
Chapter 70 Harassmen
Chapter 70 Harassmen
After the standoff with Edmund, Chelsea worked so hard that she didn't even leave her home.
She wanted to finish the script as soon as possible so that the crew could get to work as soon aspossible. The faster they finished the earlier she could end her interaction with Edmund.
She knew it was unrealistic but she still had to try. Even if she submitted the script, the film crew wouldstill look for her when there was something went wrong during the shooting process. Chelsea tried tocomfort herself that even finishing it a day earlier was a step away from Edmund.
The script of an episode of a TV drama was usually twelve thousand to fifteen thousand words at most.Chelsea tried her best, but even with her working all day long she could only write one episode eachday. All that writing was making her dizzy.
One day, she was busy finishing the extra, when she got a call from Gerry. "Chelsea, we haveencountered some problems while preparing for the filming lately. I want to discuss some changes withyou. How about we have lunch together today?"
"Okay, give me the address," Chelsea agreed immediately. Maybe it was something urgent, shethought.
After all, it was common for the director and the scriptwriter to meet and discuss any changes to theplotline. Moreover, Gerry couldn't do anything to her in broad daylight.
And honestly, she was tired of writing, so she felt like going out to relax. A break from her work wasmore than welcome.
Gerry sent the address to Chelsea. It was a restaurant located in the film district of Vertoak. Aftertidying herself up to a passable look, Chelsea took a taxi there.
After she was led to a private room, she knocked on the door and walked in. When she saw the middle-aged man sitting next to Gerry, Chelsea frowned slightly.
That man was an assistant director under Gerry. Chelsea had heard about his obscene and lasciviousbehaviors from Zuri. He had taken advantage of many actresses while filming with them.
Of course, he didn't dare to mess with those popular actresses who had big companies backing them.
His targets were young female stars who had just entered the industry, or girls who were weak andeasily bullied. When met with his harassment, they could only endure it silently.
Seeing him there, Chelsea got an ominous feeling. Her gut told her to run and not look back.
The last time she had dinner with Gerry, he had almost touched her waist. She had been traumatizedfor a long time after that.
This time, she specially covered almost every inch of her skin. She was wearing a shirt with longsleeves and denim trousers, without any skin exposed, fearing that it would give them an excuse if theyhad bad intentions.
She greeted them and summoned up the courage to walk over and sit down. But as soon as she did,the assistant director placed his hand on her shoulder.
The man looked at her beautiful face blatantly and said, "Chelsea, you are so young. Your skin looks sotender and smooth."
As he spoke, he reached out to touch Chelsea's cheek, but she stood up and dodged in reflex. Themen were startled for a second as they looked at her in surprise.
She tried to force a smile and said, "Sorry, I need to use the bathroom."
The first thing Chelsea did when she went out was to call Zuri and tell her that she had met that certainobscene assistant director and he was up to nothing good.
Zuri became vigilant at once. "Find an excuse to leave there immediately. That guy is so disgusting."
Chelsea was helpless. "But we still have to get along with each other when we are filming the play. Wewill meet again even if I leave this time. What do I do then?"
Zuri was already a popular actress who had a large fanbase. She could ignore these shameless menwithout any consequences, but Chelsea was different.
She was just a talented scriptwriter at best. As long as the director was not replaced, they were boundto meet each other every day.
Zuri said, "I can't leave, or I would have come to you by now."
After thinking for a while, Chelsea said, "I will call Mr. Pierce, I'm sure he will come."
"It will take at least half an hour for Luka to get there. That's too long. Anything could happen in those
thirty minutes," Zuri refused immediately.
Then she thought of something and said, "Stay in the bathroom for a while. I remember Orlando wasgoing to audition near that place today. I'll ask him to help you out. He will be there in at least tenminutes."
Chelsea sighed in relief and said, "That's great."
