My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1687

'Investor? When did this guy become an investor in this drama? He didn't even tell me! Besides, didn't I ask him not to come? Look at him now! Walking in like he owns this place! He's even inspecting our progress here! What the heck is going on?!' she thought.

Nachelle could only smile and bear with Jared's attitude. "Of course. As an investor, it's only natural for you to want to know what's going on."

It was nothing out of the ordinary for the production crew, so Nachelle just continued on with her work calmly.

But when she was about to turn to Lloyd, Jared said, "Mr. Lloyd is the best actor alive. Why would he need to do a second take?"

Nachelle's and Lloyd's faces soured the instant Jared said that. Nicole was taken aback as she came to a realization as well. Indeed, Lloyd's acting was good enough in that scene. There was absolutely no need for them to do a second take.

Lloyd became awkward as Jared had seen through his intentions.

If he insisted for a second take, people would definitely start to doubt his acting skills. "That was a good take, but I just wanted another take just to be safe."

Nachelle wanted to chime in as well, but Jared immediately said, "I don't think that's necessary. As the best actor alive, you can definitely complete that scene in one take."

Though Jared sounded as though he believed in Lloyd's skills, he was actually being sarcastic. And true enough, Lloyd would seem like a failure if he could not do it.

Lloyd could not help but grit his teeth as he looked at Jared. 'This bastard is obviously afraid that I'll move in on Nicole!'

But he could only wave this off and through gritted teeth, he said, "Since the investor is happy with this shot, there's no need for a second take. Let's move on to the next scene."

Then, Lloyd turned around and left.

Nicole watched as Lloyd left while the staff went on to prepare for the next scene. She then looked at Jared in defeat.
