Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen

Chapter 33

There were barely any reporters at the opening ceremony, with just one showing up. He snapped a few pictures, tossed out a few questions to the crew and then took off in less than five minutes

Fancy Island was directed by a guy named Lenwood. He was in his thirties, prime of his life. Though he was pretty average looking, he did have a great

head of hair.

Before they started shooting, Lenwood had a chat with some of the lead actors to get everyone acquainted.

The lead actress for this movie was Eileen. The male lead was a handsome fella named Bartley. No matter how hard she tried, Eileen couldn’t remember ever having crossed paths with him before.

Bartley was ridiculously good–looking, not a single flaw on his face. He was even better looking than Hubery and Kenley, who were no slouches themselves. Oddly enough, he hadn’t been in the limelight before.

After Lenwood introduced him, Bartley turned around. His handsome face was hard to ignore. He extended his hand towards Eileen, his voice crisp and clear, “Hello, Miss Lopez.”

Eileen was taken aback for a moment before responding with a smile, “Hello, Mr. Bartley”

Bartley paused, unsure of what to say next.

Lenwood glanced at the two of them, script in hand, and said, “The overall tone for this film is light–hearted and fun. You two have to portray a very close and intimate relationship, so I’d suggest you get to know each other better off the set to make things look more natural,”

Eileen nodded and turned to look at Bartley.

Bartley also looked at her, a smile on his face as he said, “I might be asking you a lot of questions. This is my first time acting and there’s a lot I don’t

understand.”
