The moment he finished, Jason turned around and left, leaving Arielle utterly confused.
She didn't know what she had said to anger him.
Isn't it normal to suggest rehearsing our lines before filming? Why did he storm off in a huff?
Before Arielle could figure out what was going on, Gracie came over.
“Ms. Moore,” Gracie whispered, “Jason has always been temperamental, so I hope you will understand and don't take it personally. There's one more thing that you might find difficult to believe. Even though Jason is a successful influencer with a huge fan base, he wants to make a breakthrough in his acting career and be treated as a serious actor instead.”
Arielle was surprised by Oracle's words.
She had assumed Jason would milk his popularity to the end before changing his image. Thus, she was astounded to hear that he was already trying to prove himself with his acting skills.
When Grade saw the disbelief on
Arielle's face, she added, “In fact, Jason has turned down ten high-paying idol dramas, just to work with Sam on this movie. I'm sure you're aware of how lucrative such dramas are and how important they are in recruiting fans and cementing their support for him. However, he refused to listen to my advice and cleared out his entire schedule just to fit this movie in.”
With that, Arielle's perception of Jason began to shift.
“Nevertheless, he is a sensitive person. Therefore, he might have misconstrued your request to rehearse thinking that you see him as an amateur, hence the anger. In spite of that, please don't mind him, for he will forget about the matter once he cools down. One good thing about him is that he never holds a grudge.”
Arielle nodded. “I understand. Going forward, I'll watch my words in front of him.”
“I'm relieved to hear that.” Grade gave Arielle a smile before returning to Jason's side.
