The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 419

Lucian arrived at the set.

Everyone was chilling out as the shooting hadn't begun. The two camera guys were having a chat, while Mr. Sears kept glancing nervously at Lucian.

Lucian looked around and asked, "Why isn't the shooting over?"

"Well, one of the actresses hasn't arrived yet. She's stuck in traffic."

Lucian raised an eyebrow, "So everyone on the crew is waiting for her?"

"Uh...yes."

Lucian let out a cold chuckle, "Humph."

Mr. Sears was a bit shaken. He had no idea what had ticked Lucian off, and he surely couldn't read Lucian's mind.

...

Inside the trailer, Mia was grumbling, "What's taking Sadie so long? She's such a time waster. We've been waiting for almost two hours and it's already dark. Can she at least give us a clear answer? We're all waiting for her."

Allison was taking a break in Mia's trailer since she didn't have her own. Initially, Patty had arranged one for her but she turned it down. After all, she was just playing a small role and didn't want to draw unnecessary attention.

Allison was gently touching her neck.

"We can't wait forever, right? What's up with this? Call my agent and ask her to check with the crew. I don't have all day. I have a magazine shoot after work and it's already delayed. I'm not up for shooting all night."

Her assistant immediately contacted the agent and the crew. But they didn't get any response.

...

Elsewhere, Director Simonds had taken a short nap. When he woke up and learnt that Sadie hadn't arrived yet, he burst into laughter out of frustration. "I've been in the film industry for so many years and this is the first time I've encountered an actor who's two hours late. From now on, don't ever get me to work with Sadie again."

His assistant quickly said, "Mr. Simonds, don't get mad."

"Two hours! Even if she was on the highway, she could have flown back by now. Her excuse about being stuck in traffic is a total lie." He waved his hand, "I'm done, let's wrap up."

Having dozens of crew members wait around wasn't going to earn Sadie any brownie points with Mr. Simonds tonight. A newbie with no respect for work, she had crossed his line.
