"Don’t..."
Leslie Howard wrapped herself in the blanket, adjusting to a comfortable position in David Redington’s embrace.
"Can you help go through the scene we need to shoot tonight? I’m not feeling confident..."
Because Winona Wallace feigned illness and left the crew, the scenes originally ant for both Winona Wallace and Leslie Howard were all shifted onto Leslie Howard.
These days, Leslie Howard was as busy as a spinning top, unable to stop for a mont.
After filming, she had to deal with her ’boyfriend’ David Redington, who always snuck into her room, and face the intense shooting when production started.
Her acting skills and experience should have made handling such filming easy.
But because of Winona Wallace’s ’strike’, the crew had to make the worst possible adjustnts.
So the creators held an overnight eting, revised and adjusted, and suddenly turned Grace Smith and Alan Moore’s secondary CP into the main CP.
The whole story shifted from the original light romantic tone to a plot filled with mutual love and conflict.
The script was heavily revised, and with nonstop shooting, Leslie Howard barely had ti to imrse herself in the character, understand and express it in her own way.
She was best at imrsing herself in her roles.
Now, unable to imrse herself, Leslie Howard could only rely on her experience to cope.
But this left her feeling discontent; she still preferred sincere and passionate performances.
"Director Henson said tonight we’re filming the scene where you know I’m still using you and want to cold war and break up. Co on, let’s rehearse it in advance."
Leslie Howard was still a bit unsure about Grace Smith’s emotions.
She wanted to use this ’private tutoring’ opportunity with David Redington to try more.
Outside, things were in chaos, all stirred up.
But with David Redington’s protection shielding her from all the ssy troubles, Leslie Howard could stay and seriously hone her acting skills.
Having been accustod to being bogged down in the mud for four years, Leslie Howard deeply cherished this tranquility.
She wanted to perform her role well.
"I won’t act." To her surprise, David Redington flatly refused.
Leslie Howard was slightly stunned, about to ask why.
Then she heard the man’s deep, magnetic voice: "I will never have a cold war with you, nor will we break up."
Leslie Howard: ...
"Pfft—" She couldn’t help but laugh.
"This isn’t a real breakup; it’s acting. Besides, my dear boyfriend, aren’t you a dignified movie star? Could it be that you can’t distinguish between acting and reality? If so, I have every reason to suspect that when you were shooting before, you were also completely involved, having special feelings for those actresses playing opposite you."
"Never." David Redington lifted Leslie Howard’s chin, forcing her gaze onto his handso face.
"Except for you, I’ve never had feelings for an actress playing opposite . In fact, to , they were like lifeless figures."
Due to childhood autism, David Redington had long locked himself in a confined space.
Those actresses playing opposite him were like NPCs in the Ga World.
David Redington never brought personal emotions onto the set.
Except for the woman in front of him.
"Lifeless figures..." Leslie Howard laughed, "So when you started acting with , you also thought of as a lifeless figure. Darling, don’t forget, we’ve been acting together for more than four years. Back then, you didn’t have any special feelings for , did you think of as a lifeless figure too?"
Like she caught the man’s handle, she gently laughed and embraced his neck, pressed against his firm chest.
She could vouch for it; David Redington didn’t like her at all four years ago.
To her surprise, the man looking down at her, eyes darkened slightly.
His clear, pleasant voice sounded: "No, four years ago, you were different from others... From the second ti we t, I felt you were trouble."
