She remembered that the director of this commercial was notorious for his bad temper.
‘Tm just trying to make a living. Surely that's not a problem to you, right?”
All eyes were on the two as they faced off. Gossip abounded, though no one stepped forward to defuse the tension. Some of the staff wanted to seek out the director, who was unfortunately indisposed at the washroom at that very moment.
“This is my commercial! Get out of my sight!”
Mia's head was in a mess since the news about her having a meal with Jake had been reported by the tabloids. Osmond had already refused to assign any work to her for the next month as a punishment.
She was, however, more worried that Jake would stay away from her as a result.
Jake was supposed to be on-site, supervising her very first shoot after she signed an exclusive contract with Sky Entertainment. His absence only served to fuel Mia's anxiousness.
Instead, Megan had shown up at such a crucial moment.
“I thought this was a commercial under the Wilson Group,” Megan commented as she surveyed her surroundings. She did not meet Mia's gaze.
Her intention was to provoke Mia. No matter what happens, this stupid woman is the one who has to bear the consequences.
In the middle of their stand-off, Mia's gaze suddenly drifted past Megan's shoulder, landing on a figure behind her. With that, Megan turned around and her chest felt heavy at the sight of Jake.
Jake had not noticed their stand-off as he entered the filming set. When the staff turned to look at Jake, Megan suddenly fell to the floor, knocking over a chair beside her.
The noise surprised the staff, who had all been busy greeting their boss. Instantly, all eyes turned to Megan.
