You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Everyone held their breaths and looked at Clarissa. She’s actually confronting Shermaine?

At that moment, Jamie was pulling at Clarissa’s fingers to stop her. Her eyes were red.

Nonetheless, Clarissa showed no signs of backing down. She even wore a grin on her face in front of Shermaine.

“Ms. Smallwood, what’s your opinion about what I just said? They are just my suggestions but I hope you can adopt them.”

After all, someone did accuse Clarissa of ignorantly explaining a scene to Shermaine, so Clarissa decided to make that a reality and actually do it.

“Sure! What do you think, Mr. Brown?” Shermaine responded with a smile.

Despite being unhappy about it, the director nodded. “No problem. We’re done with this part then. Everyone ready up for the next scene!”

Immediately, the entire crew started scurrying around with their work while an assistant held an umbrella over Shermaine’s head. Jamie’s assistant also rushed over to check on Jamie, concerned about her artiste.

On the other hand, right as Clarissa turned to leave after Jamie, Shermaine approached her out of the blue.

Shermaine still had a smile on her face as she spoke, “Ms. Quigley, you and Jamie seem close, I’m jealous.”

“I treat her the way I treat any other artiste,” Clarissa said plainly.

“Haha… Ms. Quigley, is it true that you’re leaving tomorrow? Why so soon? If you’re not here, who’s going to go through the script so passionately with me?”

“The director. He’s actually far more thorough than me. Sometimes, what’s written and what’s acted out are quite different. I’m new after all, and there are so many things I’m lacking in. So, go look for the director, he’s better than me.”

Shermaine gave Clarissa a thoughtful look before bidding her farewell. “Alright, Ms. Quigley. I wish you all the best. Hope we meet again someday.”

“Thank you.”

As Shermaine walked proudly past Jamie, Jamie gave her the death stare as her rage and dissatisfaction burned from within.

“Stop staring, you need a facial right now. Do you have any more scenes for today?”

The few of them sat in the lounge when Jamie sent her assistant away. While she did her own facial, Jamie looked at Clarissa. She mainly felt touched and also slightly apologetic by Clarissa’s actions.

“Ms. Quigley, thank you so much.”

“What’s there to thank me for?”

“No. To me, this is important, very important. If you hadn’t said anything, god knows how long Shermaine was going to torture me like that. I knew I was going to get bullied one day, but I’ve never been through such cruelty in my entire life.”

While talking, Jamie tried her best to hold in her tears. The changes she was going through after such a traumatic experience was not something Clarissa could clearly comprehend.
