Chapter 113

The whole scene took only a few minutes to complete.

After it was over, Eileen felt pretty pleased with her performance. She looked at the man beside her, who was wearing a cool expression, and asked. “I think the performance went well, don’t you?”

Egbert bit his lip; only his upper body was visible outside the blanket. He replied casually. “Hmm.”

“Our emotions were on point.” Eileen encouraged him, then lightly patted his shoulder, saying, “Keep it up; I think we can nail it in one go tomorrow”

Egbert remained silent and gave her a glance.

Eileen got out of bed and slipped into her slippers. “Well, I’ll head back now.”

Egbert didn’t respond.

With her slippers on, Eileen left the room. Once the door closed, Egbert let out a deep sigh, rubbed his aching forehead, and chuckled self-deprecatingly, “I sure know how to get myself into trouble.”

The next day began with that intimate scene in bed.

Surprisingly, the filming process went smoothly.

Galen was moved, saying, “Finally, we’ve found the right vibe.” There was no doubt; this time, they got it in one take.

Eileen had several marks on her neck and collarbone.

As she wiped herself with a tissue, she proudly bumped Egbert’s shoulder, saying, “See, I told you.”

Egbert paid her no mind. He got out of bed silently and walked towards the bathroom.

Galen was smoking, watching Egbert’s back, and chuckling. “Mr. Reed is quite innocent”

Eileen didn’t quite catch that. She put on her clothes and walked quickly to Galen’s side, feeling curious. “What do you mean?”

Galen gave her a sidelong glance. “You think everyone’s as caref
