She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 587

Chapter 587: Doted on by Two Men

This was already the sixth time Kate had performed this dance today, and she was drenched in sweat despite the cold weather. When she heard the director say "cut," she was so excited that she almost cried. Did she finally pass this scene?

The character she portrayed, Elizabeth, was a naive and lively young lady before her family's downfall. On her father's birthday banquet, her mother arranged for her to perform a dance at the event. However, Elizabeth was a last-minute decision maker, so she secretly climbed up and danced in the deserted plum forest.

Coincidentally, the young emperor saw her and fell in love at first sight. He remembered Elizabeth's figure and planned to make her his concubine. Thus, a dance that could captivate the emperor must be breathtakingly beautiful.

To perform this dance well, Kate had enlisted the help of a professional classical dance teacher and trained for half a month. She wasn't a dance major herself, but she put in a lot of effort and sweat to make every move perfect.

Even the teacher praised her natural talent, saying that she was ready to showcase this stunning dance. However, when she arrived on set, there were always nitpicks. The female lead, Cynthia Norman, stood arrogantly with her arms crossed, pointing out Kate's "shortcomings."

"Director, I believe it should be a thin veil for the dance to look ethereal. How can I dance with such a thick skirt?" she said with confidence.

The director hesitated. It was November in Akloit, and the outdoor temperature was freezing. If an actor fell ill, it would cause even more trouble for the production. Cynthia's backer was Master Glenn, so the director didn't dare to offend her. Moreover, she was a nationally acclaimed actress, having won numerous awards. She had worked on many outstanding productions and had experience in filming TV dramas.

Kate didn't want the entire crew to stand in the cold wind for her sake, so she nodded and agreed to her request.

"It's alright, director. I can wear a thin veil dress. If we finish the scene in one go, everyone can rest earlier."

To be honest, the director was deeply moved by Kate's understanding and cooperation.

Encountering a star like Kate, who was hardworking, talented, and able to endure hardships, the director was grateful.

"Okay. Let's all get ready and let Miss Zamora perform the scene flawlessly. It's too cold today."

Several times, the director himself felt that everything was perfect. However, the leading actress kept finding faults, saying, "I don't think it's good enough. Why isn't her hair blowing? Where are the fans? Bring in two more."

"Her hand shook. Will the audience appreciate this kind of dance? It's not convincing."

"Miss Zamora, you represent my younger self. How can you have such a dull face? Where is the makeup artist? Add a flower hairpin."

...

Kate had performed the dance six times in a row, and finally, when the director tearfully said "good," the leading actress was still coldly laughing while biting her finger.

"I don't think it's good. Let's change the dance."

Change the dance at the last minute?

Not only Kate, even the director felt that it was inappropriate. Kate had prepared for this scene for almost half a month.

The set fell into a stalemate. Not far away, a sleek black luxury motorhome was parked by the roadside, equipped with heating that made it feel like a different season compared to the outside.

A man wearing only a gray sweater sat on a plush chair, crossing his legs and holding a cup of coffee. He gazed pensively at the figure in red.

It's truly pitiful, her face flushed pink, trembling with cold.
