A Night with Her Cruel Mate

"It's nothing." Julia shook her head, knowing that Lisa would never leave her alone. She didn't expect her to be so cruel. It was as if she didn't even care about the play. She just wanted to retaliate against Julia.

Even though Julia was well-tempered, she was getting a little angry.

"This is outrageous! How could she do this?" Everyone else could see that Lisa had slapped her on purpose. Since Julia was an outcast and Lisa was the female lead, nobody decided to help Julia. They just watched what happened.

As Julia's assistant, Abby couldn't stand seeing Julia get bullied. Just as she was about to confront Lisa, Julia grabbed her.

"Don't go." Although she was very upset, Julia knew that it was not the right time to get angry.

"But Julia, they..." Abby stammered, glowering with anger.

"I'm fine, really." Julia forced a smile on her face. As she was about to fix her make-up, the director called for her again. She quickly put her things down and rushed to the set.

With a gloating look on her face, Lisa mocked, "Oh my God! Your face is swollen. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine," Julia curtly replied, feeling a little bit of anger.

Her face was swollen because of Lisa's slap and now the latter had the audacity to pretend that she cared about her.

"I'm really sorry. I think I hit you so hard just now. I'll try to restrain myself later," Lisa replied with a big smile.
