The Spare Wife (Abigail Quinn and Sean Graham) -
Chapter 380
Chapter 380 To the Production Team
The most disheartening part about it all was the way Tristan punished Gabe; he wasted no time. kicking her out of the cast.
"You can leave if you don't want to continue the shoot, but you'll also be taking your students with you. Everyone will have to pay the penalty as dictated in the contract," he haughtily declared. Abigail had not planned on continuing with the shoot. Yet, Tristan's declaration meant they were. all stuck.
Eric was so furious that the vein on his forehead was visibly throbbing.
She hastily stopped him from doing anything.
Miranda and Gabe did not have rich or powerful families. They solely relied on their talents to make it where they were today. How could they afford to pay the production team a few hundred thousand when they did not even get anything out of filming with them?
"In here, what I say goes
Just how popular do you think this variety show will be? Putting aside how much money those who stay to the end will earn, they could, at the very least, shoot to fame overnight to become the next viral sensation. Then, a simple livestream with the fans would earn them thousands. It all depends on whether or not you can push through this!" Tristan sneered as he held his head high. Everyone fell silent.
Actors would prefer to be paid, but the trainees who did not have any fame of their own would. naturally long for the popularity he promised.
"You're not wrong, but Gabe cannot leave. She is my student. As she is now hurt, it's not too much to ask for her to be sent to the hospital to make sure she's fine, right? A human's brain is very fragile. Once the optimal treatment time has passed, the consequences would be life-changing. Can the production team bear the risk of that happening?" Abigail calmly said to him.
He scoffed, "As the contract stated, those who leave for personal reasons will be kicked out. If her body was so weak, why didn't she take a break before continuing? I never said you had to replace the treasure today. She's only hurt because she overexerted herself. You only have one student now. If you don't work harder, you'll be disqualified as well.
His hypocrisy infuriated both Abigail and Eric.
They had never met anyone this shameless before.
He had used all the tricks possible to push the blame on them instead.
Eric took a deep breath. For his students' sake, he could not leave.
Tristan turned to Abigail. "Gabe will have to go. If she leaves in the manner I dictated, she can still get paid."
"We'll wait for her to decide when she wakes up, but she has to be sent to the hospital," she insistently replied.
He then had the crew send Gabe away.
Once they were all back in the communal resting area on the first floor, Miranda sat beside Abigail as her eyes turned red-rimmed.
One look and Abigail knew Miranda was upset over what happened.
She patted Miranda on the shoulder and softly said, "It's fine. We can rest once the filming is done."
To the students who had yet to formally graduate to be working adults, Tristan himself had turned into a great life lesson.
The more powerful a person was, the more they liked to step on innocent and average individuals.
Miranda hummed in acknowledgment.
When Sean saw the video, he nearly charged over to the set.
"Just send the video to Damon," Kevin said to Cameron.
Then, he discreetly shot a glance at the frosty look on Sean's face.
Abigail was being badly tormented by the production team. Tristan wasn't even bothering to put on an act.
It was rare to see someone that arrogant, even for Kevin and Sean.
After Cameron left the room, Kevin said, "We know why Tristan is constantly targeting Abigail. Mrs. Pearson, Vincent's wife, is behind the whole thing. What do you plan to do about her?" "Vincent's wife is Scarlett Harper's younger sister," Sean said.
He had seen a photo of Vincent's wife before. As she was Scarlett's twin, she looked identical to Scarlett.
When Kevin heard that, he narrowed his eyes. "That woman's a snake and completely unlike her older sister."
In Kevin's eyes, Scarlett was an innocent moron who was constantly played for a fool by her younger twin and Kelly.
Sean got to his feet. "I need to viciously punish Tristan."
It didn't matter what he was to Abigail. He could not forgive Tristan's behavior toward her.
"I don't think Abigail's as useless as you think. You've done enough," Kevin retorted as he rose to his feet as well.
Sean furrowed his brows at him."
"Think about it. Is Abigail someone who is that easily pushed around? If you go, you might end up ruining her plans," Kevin continued, staring back at Sean.
That made Sean heave a long sigh.
He knew he needed to have faith in Abigail's abilities, but he just could not help himself when he knew she was being bullied.
"Whatever happens, what you've done behind the scenes is enough to allow her to act as she likes. She definitely trusts Damon, so she'll make good use of the videos and audio recordings you sent her," Kevin reassuringly said.
Sean fell silent after hearing Kevin's advice.
In his opinion, Kevin's words were not a reassurance. Instead, it was a blow to his pride..
Damon could stand by her side and help her, but he could not.
Kevin seemed to know what he was thinking as he swiftly continued, "Didn't you say you won't ask for anything in return?"
Sean constantly wanted Abigail to return his feelings, but the more he acted with that desire in mind, the more unlikely it was for him to get what he wanted.
"I know," Sean glumly responded.
"I don't want to nag you, but the more you want her to respond to you, the more disappointed you'll be, Kevin said with a sigh as he patted Sean on the shoulder. Sean pushed his hand away. "You really are a chatterbox sometimes, However, since you have been dealing a lot as my strategist, I'll let you have this."
