Never Too Far Novel

Chapter 1391-1400

“What? You dare to do it but can’t stand other people criticizing you for it?” Lisa raised her chin condescendingly. “I’ve been in this industry long enough to know there are only ever a few tricks simple stunt doubles like you can use to climb to stardom.”

“Yeah? Well, Jessie won’t stoop to that level! She’s far too pure for that!” Lexie retorted.

“Care to share how you get to where you are now, then?”

“You and I are barely acquainted, let alone friends. So why should I tell you?” Jessie monotoned, taking Lisa aback. “As if you’re worthy enough to be my friend, Silverstein.”

“Huh, it’s Jessie who doesn’t want to befriend you. To think a person can be so shameless!” Lexie fired back again, causing Lisa to turn grimly and glare at her. “Don’t get cocky, Silverstein. The higher you go, the harder you fall.”

With that, she left smugly.

When Jessie stared at Lisa’s retreating figure, she didn’t sense the animosity from the latter but instead reflected on her incompetence. The reason Lisa dared to mock her right now as she stood here was that she wasn’t good enough yet. In this industry, only after one had enough creditable work and fans and was hardworking and aspirant enough could one ignore other people’s derision.

“You alright, Jessie? Don’t let her get to you.” Lexie comforted her.

“I’m good. She can’t get to me; she will only motivate me.” At that, she hooked her arm around Lexie’s. “C’mon, let’s go! Help me with the script after breakfast. I want to memorize it as quickly as possible.”

“You have wire stunts in the afternoon, Jessie. You think you’re going to be okay?” Vincent asked, to which Jessie nodded with reassurance. “Absolutely. This is my forte.”

Her answer pleased him, for he didn’t like his actors to use stunt doubles.

At around 2.00PM at the hotel, Julian could no longer sit still after learning about the wire stunts arranged in the afternoon from the crew, so he had his assistant ready the car to head to the set.

He was dressed in all black and even wore a baseball cap as he didn’t want to garner attention. He was just there to see how the girl was doing and also to make sure she was safe during her wire stunt.

Because of the wire stunt, Jessi didn’t dare overeat. In the past, she would even do them with an empty stomach as she would be more awake and more agile.

Anything could happen on set, and sure enough, the wire stunt was brought forward as they were missing one of the props for the next scene.

Jessie stood below the crane in her costume while the stunt crew helped secure her to the mechanism. Vincent, too, came to check on the situation and ensured her safety.

After everything was set to go, Vincent gave her some words of encouragement, then cleared the set for filming.

The scene was about Estelle picking a magical herb, and she was magically light as a feather. It would be a visual delight, but such a scene challenged an actor’s movements in the air and also the steadiness when they landed.

“It’s alright.” Jessie smiled, and suddenly, a growl traveled in the air—someone’s stomach was growling.

The young woman immediately covered her stomach with mortification. Her stomach was reminding her of her skipped lunch.

“What’s wrong? Did you not take lunch?” Julian asked with a frown.

“I try not to eat too much when I have wire stunts.”

Just then, Lexie rushed over with a cup. “Jessie didn’t eat at all. All she had was water. Tell her that it’s unacceptable!”

At that, Julian turned to his assistant. “Get her something to eat.”

“I can still manage a little while longer. I have another scene soon.” Jessie stopped them at once.
