You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Clarissa had never felt that she showed particular care or attention to Matthew.

However, when she got a clearer look at the man next to Shermaine, she could tell almost immediately that it was Matthew himself.

Clarissa couldn’t help but feel a little chagrined at herself—being sharp was a good thing, but this wasn’t the sort of mental acuity she wanted!

“Ms. Quigley, I didn’t know you were so interested in celebrity gossip, too!”

One of the supporting actresses from the same film set, Jamie, had just finished shooting one of her scenes. She came and sat down next to Clarissa and struck up a conversation with her.

She was a university student majoring in performing arts, and she had been selected for this role through an open audition. Thus, both her looks and her acting skills were considered passable by industry standards.

Because of their small age gap, Clarissa had found her relatively easy to talk to.

Right now, everyone on set was probably discussing the hottest news of today—Shermaine’s new rumor!

Clarissa closed the webpage she had been looking at and smiled up at Jamie. “I just happened to come across it on my news feed, that’s all. I heard the diva herself arrived last night. Is she filming something today?”

“How would I know?” Jamie replied sulkily. “Shermaine Smallwood is oh-so-important. If she still hasn’t shown up by now, I suppose we’ll have to push everyone’s schedule back to accommodate her.”

Clarissa shot a look at Jamie. “Are you not fond of her?”

Jamie pursed her lips as she considered her question. “I don’t have much of an opinion on her. Are you a fan of hers, Ms. Quigley?”

“I would say so, yes.”

“Well, her acting skills are pretty average, in my opinion. She was just lucky that she got movie scripts that suited her. Besides, haven’t you noticed that she hasn’t been acting in any movies for the past few years? She’s still relevant now only because she is capitalizing on her past fame.”

Clarissa smiled warmly. “I don’t know much about acting, so I can’t speak for her acting skills. However, I’ve watched that award-winning film of hers, and I found it to be pretty good. The reason I like her is because she has the image of a strong, independent woman. It isn’t just because she graduated from a prestigious university—rather than relying on her family connections, she managed to make a name for herself in the industry by taking up lots of supporting roles at the beginning. Even if this is just an image her PR team created for her, she’s still a very bright girl who’s loved by many people. What about you? Do you dislike her?”

Jamie shrugged nonchalantly. “I suppose I’m just slightly jealous of her.”

“Haha…you’re quite honest, aren’t you?”

“Of course! She comes from a good family, has a smooth-flowing career, and is young and pretty to boot. Her future is limitless—she’ll probably catch a hotter and more successful man in the future, too. It’s natural for me to be jealous of her. Ask around the industry, and you won’t find a single girl who isn’t. Not all of us are as kind and generous as you are, Ms. Quigley.”

“I’m not kind and generous. I’ve never had an argument with her before, that’s all.”

“That’s true. You aren’t exactly from the entertainment industry. Besides, your screenwriting is well-regarded in the film industry—she has to act according to your scripts. Doesn’t that give you a sense of achievement?”

Clarissa found that funny. She shook her head and was just about to say something when there was a commotion at the entrance. When she looked over, she realized that all the film directors had rushed over to the entrance.

From the looks of it, Shermaine had probably arrived.

Since everyone was crowding out over there, Clarissa decided that she might as well get up to take a look too.

Shermaine was very beautiful. As a renowned beauty in D City, her features were exquisite and delicate beyond words. Besides, a different sort of aura radiated from her—she performed every movement with grace and dignity.

However, the media must have exaggerated when they described Shermaine as a woman with a warm and good-natured smile. In truth, Clarissa observed that her expression was rather cold and aloof—while she greeted the director and Ryler politely, her smile was nowhere to be seen for most of the time.

Afterward, she made her way to her private dressing room to get her makeup and hair ready. While she was inside, everyone discussed about her excitedly.
