Perhaps it’s just a fleeting interest.
Today they like you; tomorrow, they may not.
When they lose interest, that newbie will be in trouble.
Anyone who offends Lisha Alcock will have a hard time.
"Director White, there’s no need for all this. It’s too much trouble," said Joanna Lawrence, knowing that Gary White was only giving her special treatment because of Yannick Luther.
But others didn’t understand this.
Seeing the meaningful gazes of the people around her, Joanna couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable and uneasy.
"I will just take the crew’s bus."
Frank raised his eyebrows: "Are you sure?"
"Yes, I’m sure!" Joanna nodded, "Thank you for your kindness, but I really don’t want to trouble you."
She deliberately emphasized the "you" in her speech.
She wanted everyone around her to know that she and Gary White had no special relationship.
But it seemed to have little effect.
Those present had already imagined all sorts of connections between her and Gary White.
They looked at her with suggestive expressions.
Frank didn’t insist. He tapped his phone screen with his slender fingers and said, "Fine, the crew’s bus is fine too. Just take down my contact information. If you have any problems in the future, you can call me."
She felt that Frank’s words somehow made their relationship even more prone to misunderstanding...
But she could refuse his offer to drive her to the film shooting.
Rejecting to exchange contact details, especially in public, would be just too ungrateful.
It was also a loss of face for Frank.
Thinking that they were already misunderstood, and that nothing would make a difference, Joanna reluctantly gave Frank her phone number with a resigned attitude.
Frank dialed the number she gave him, watched her save the contact, and then left.
As soon as he left, the quiet scene instantly became bustling.
Groups of three or five gathered together, looking at Joanna and whispering among themselves.
"Joanna, you know Director White?" Nina asked curiously, recovering from her shock.
After saving the phone number, Joanna locked her phone, thought for a moment, and replied, "...Not really."
She had only met Gary White once during the audition.
They had only met twice in total.
"But, Director White just now..." Like the others, Nina speculated whether Frank had any romantic interest in Joanna. After all, his actions seemed quite obvious.
She didn’t know Frank personally, but she had heard things about him.
A wealthy young master with no interest in inheriting his family’s trillion-dollar industry, he preferred to be a director and attended a college majoring in performance-related studies.
Because of his prominent family background and talent, he had a meteoric rise in the entertainment industry.
Many directors had to cater to the investors when making films.
Investors catered to him.
He was also one of the investors for each film he directed.
Thus, he was a very proud man.
He didn’t take just anyone seriously.
Of course, he wouldn’t give out his contact information easily.
In fact, very few people had Frank’s contact information.
For him to proactively give out his phone number was even rarer.
Especially since Joanna was still a newcomer who couldn’t be any newer.
