A Beauty With Multiple Masks Chapter 1259 Disfigured
“Mmm-hmm.” Jason nodded before giving Vinson another suspicious look.
Somehow, he could sense that something was amiss.
But since Sam was calling out to him, he had no choice but to set his curiosity aside and get to work.
The filming location was set at the gym entrance on the apartment building’s first floor.
The first scene was to show the monster about to attack Jason. At the crucial moment, Arielle appeared and
rescued him. Subsequently, both of them worked together to subdue the monster.
In the plot, Jason started out as a coward. Hence, the scenes largely involved Arielle fighting alone.
Standing behind the director’s monitor and watching Arielle act out a fighting scene, Vinson couldn’t help but break
out in cold sweat.
The last time he saw her filming was when she was working on a commercial for Soir Coffee.
Since shooting a commercial was very unlike filming a movie, which was significantly more difficult, Vinson was
worried that she might hurt herself in the process.
Amidst Vinson’s concerns, filming finally began.
The monster was being played by a stuntman dressed in green so that the special effects could be added later.
The moment he appeared, he charged like a raving monster at Jason, who had fallen onto the ground. Evidently,
the stuntman was very professional.
In the nick of time, Arielle launched a flying kick and sent the “monster” flying, sparking a raging battle between
the two.
The scene was so gripping that everyone watched from the edge of their seats. Five to six minutes later, Sam
yelled, “Cut!” Subsequently, he commented in delight, “Well done, we managed to do this in one take! All we need
to do later is to shoot the flying kick from another angle.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnly then were Vinson’s worries eased.
“Whoo!” After letting out a breath, he heard a faint female voice coming up from behind.
“Hmph! I didn’t expect her to actually have some skills. However, what’s the big deal in acting well in an action
sequence? Considering that human emotions are central to the plot, it’s more important for her to have real acting
skills.”
Evidently, the words were aimed at Arielle.
When Vinson turned to see who made the remarks, he realized that it was the actress who ridiculed Arielle earlier.
At the same time, Annabelle caught Vinson’s gaze, for it was so cold it send a shiver down her spine.
Knitting her brows, she snapped, “What are you looking at?”
How dare a lowly assistant give me such a hostile look? Does he not want to work in the entertainment industry
anymore? Arielle might be the chairman of Sann Group, but the group isn’t powerful enough to hold sway in the
entertainment industry.
Given that she used to be a child actress and grew up in showbiz, her network in the industry was significantly
larger than that of Arielle.
A single word from her would be enough to have the assistant blacklisted from the industry.
Despite having admonished Vinson, Annabelle noticed that he was still glaring at her, upsetting her further.
“You-”
“All right, everyone be quiet. Action!”
Coincidentally, Sam was about to shoot the flying kick scene. Thus, Annabelle had no choice but to suppress her
anger and keep her mouth shut.
Unfortunately, the look Vinson gave her only intensified her desire to teach Arielle a lesson through the “accident.”
Considering her beauty is what made her popular, I’m going to ruin that face of hers and see if her fans still like a
disfigured female entrepreneur.
Since humans were visual animals, Annabelle was certain that no one would like Arielle once she lost her looks.
With that thought in mind, she smirked with a vicious glint in her eye.
Unbeknownst to her, the change in her expression was entirely caught by Vinson.
Meanwhile, Arielle had a five-minute break after finishing her scene.
Just when she wanted Vinson to get her a glass of water, the latter pulled her along to the gym’s break room.
“What is it?” Arielle asked curiously. “Do you need to leave already?”
“No. I just want to warn you about that actress,” Vinson highlighted with a grim expression.
“The lady called Annabelle?”
Vinson nodded. “You have to watch out for her during filming, for I have a feeling she is up to no good.”
“Don’t worry. It’ll be fine,” Arielle replied with a shrug. “We’re working among the film crew with plenty of eyes
watching. Moreover, I have never had any interaction with her. Thus, there’s no reason why she would take such a
big risk to harm me. Even if she resents me, the most she’ll do is make some snarky comments.”
It’s not a big deal if she just throws an insult here and there.
Nevertheless, Vinson furrowed his brows at her words.
“Whatever it is, you can never be too careful. Anyway, aren’t you going to have a scene with her?”
“Yup.” Arielle nodded. “But, it’s in a group of six to seven people. She won’t have a chance to do anything to me.”
Arielle assumed the worst Annabelle could do was steal her lines.
Since it was a group scene, she didn’t mind it at all.
After all, she didn’t accept a role in the movie just to become famous.
“Even then, you still have to be careful,” Vinson reminded.
Arielle nodded earnestly. “I understand and will watch out for her.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mmm-hmm.” Only then did the tension on Vinson’s face ease.
Right when they left the break room one after the other, Jason approached.
“Arielle.”
When she turned around, she saw Jason looking at Vinson warily. “I didn’t get the opportunity earlier to ask you who
the guy behind you is.”
“Oh,” Arielle answered with a smile, “I almost forgot to introduce you. He’s my assistant and also my temporary
driver.”
“Where’s the female bodyguard you previously had?”
Arielle replied casually, “She’s not feeling well, so he’s the replacement.”
“I see… An assistant…” With that, Jason stopped paying attention to Vinson, as a lowly assistant wasn’t worth his
time.
Smiling wryly, Arielle glanced at Vinson from the corner of her eye. The sullen expression on his face seemed to be
telling her he was going to interrogate her when they got back home.
Gulping instinctively, Arielle didn’t dare speak to Jason any further, for fear that Vinson would do something rash.
Thus, she made some idle chatter before quickly preparing for her second scene.
Fortunately, Jason didn’t continue to pester her because he too needed to practice his lines which were aplenty in
the group scene.
As the scene was Arielle’s last and she needed to rush to the Mill residence soon, she only had an hour left to wrap
it up.
With that thought in mind, Arielle intensified the focus on her preparation.
Soon, filming was about to start again.
After arranging everyone in their specific position, Sam stood behind his monitor and prepared to film.
