Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1818

Hearing that, the director immediately thought of Yvonne, who had walked off halfway through the shoot, and it still left a sour taste in his mouth.

“Let’s not bring that up. Some people are absolutely replaceable.”

Aurora caught the shift in his expression and understood instantly.

He was clearly still holding a grudge.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t speak about it so bluntly.

In her view, it wasn’t something that could be smoothed over so easily.

The director noticed her thoughtful look and grew curious.

“What is it? You look troubled. Did someone say something to you?”

Aurora looked up, surprised he could read her that quickly.

She hadn’t expected him to be so sharp.

“Looks like nothing gets past you.”

She said it with a light, helpless air.

The director answered with pride, “Of course. In this industry, if you don’t learn to read people, you’ll get eaten alive.

“The fact that I’ve made it this far has everything to do with knowing exactly who I’m dealing with.”

Aurora had to agree.

“That’s true. Which is why there’s something I want to say directly.”

She took a moment to gather her thoughts. She couldn’t hide this from him, not when he was one of the people affected.

“It wouldn’t feel right to keep anything from you, so I’ll be upfront.”

She met his gaze and began explaining everything she’d been dealing with these past few days.
