"Mr. Reed, you’re here?"
The sudden appearance of the voice stirred up an irritable feeling in James Reed’s heart.
"Oh wow, Ophelia, such a big bouquet, how lucky!" The people nearby chattered loudly, causing Ophelia Wilson’s cheeks to flush as she laughed and scolded, "Don’t make such a fuss."
The more Ophelia said that, the more her friends teased her with laughter, "Blushing, blushing."
"You guys are so annoying." Ophelia stomped her foot playfully and then shyly smiled at James Reed, "Why did you suddenly show up?"
On ordinary days, such coyness from Ophelia was quite enjoyable to James Reed.
But today, a whole group of them surrounded him, blocking his view, making him increasingly irritable.
Especially because his eyes couldn’t catch sight of that person, it made everything look unpleasant to him.
However, thinking about Ophelia coming from the Wilson Clan, James Reed suppressed the fury in his heart and smiled, putting on his affectionate gentlemanly demeanor, "Naturally, because I missed you."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."
The people around erupted into another round of good-natured laughter, causing Ophelia Wilson’s cheeks to grow even redder.
The commotion here caught the attention of others in the production crew.
The movement in the crowd allowed James Reed to see that figure.
The bright smile remained on the face, but upon hearing the commotion, there was just a glance in this direction.
Just that one glance, as lively as if the flow of air had changed, tied an inexplicable string around James Reed’s heart and gave it a hard tug.
"I’ll go ask the director for leave." Ophelia Wilson pursed her lips with a shy yet sweet smile, reaching out to take the flowers from James Reed’s arms.
James Reed stepped back half a step, just avoiding Ophelia Wilson’s hand.
James Reed’s evasive action surprised not only Ophelia but also everyone around at the same time, what’s happening?
Just as Ophelia felt awkward, James Reed laughed and said, "The flowers are too heavy, I’ll hold them for you."
"Oh... so considerate..." The people around laughed even more exaggeratedly, making Ophelia’s cheeks redder.
"Then I’ll go ask the director for leave." Ophelia smiled so widely that her mouth couldn’t close, stepping lightheartedly to ask for leave from the director.
James Reed smiled and followed, saying to Ophelia Wilson, "Everyone’s been working so hard, I’ll treat tonight."
Ophelia Wilson was delighted, thinking that James Reed was doing this to boost her face.
"Great, I’ll go tell the director." Ophelia happily went over.
James Reed saw the director nod to Ophelia Wilson with a smile. She turned back and smiled happily at him, finally putting his hanging heart at ease.
This feeling of relief left James Reed a bit puzzled, what exactly was he anxious about?
There wasn’t time for James Reed to think too much, as Ophelia Wilson had already joyfully run over, linking arms with him, and led him outside. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩
James Reed would treat everyone to dinner tonight, but during the day, scenes had to be filmed, so Sophie Wilson continued acting.
Meanwhile, Julian Campbell watched the direction James Reed left in, his gaze flickered for a moment, carrying deep coldness.
It seems necessary to find a chance to remind Aunt that James Reed isn’t a good person.
The afternoon’s filming went very smoothly, thanks to Sophie Wilson not using a stunt double, the director changed many of the predefined shots.
By the end of the afternoon filming, the director was constantly in an excited state, "Good, good, very good! Wrap!"
Today truly was a day of exceeding the task expectations.
