The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 940

Mango's eyes were burning with anger.

She had never expected to see such a scene. So many people were surrounding Rainie while punching and kicking her.

Rainie was weak, so she curled up on the ground and allowed others to bully her.

Mango's heart ached badly, but at the same time, she was furious.

Rainie gently tugged at Mango's elbow and said in a low voice, "It's not of the director's fault. This is a play, and this is what my character is going through."

"Really? As far as I know, you are just an extra, aren't you? Why does an extra like you need to be filmed so many times?"

Mango saw Rainie's performance several times when she was in the car. It was obvious that someone was trying to create trouble for Rainie while filming.

The director looked at Mango and naturally recognized her. However, he didn't compliment her too much as he said faintly, "Her performance isn't good, so she had to redo the scene many times. Mrs. Ye, you're an outsider, so don't act like you know everything. If you can't bear to see her suffer, then you can take her away. We don't lack actors anyway."

Mango's chest heaved up and down rapidly. She grabbed Rainie's hand and said, "Let's go! We're done here!"

However, Rainie did not move.

"Mango, let go of me!"

Rainie's gaze was somewhat persistent.

Mango looked at the bruises on Rainie's face and arm in shock. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

"Why do you have to go through this?"

"I'm an extra, but if I really want to be an actress, I have to bear some hardships. If I can't even bear these hardships, what will happen to my family? What will happen to me in the future? You can help me once, but can you help me for a lifetime? Even if you can, I don't want to live like that. I have to rely on myself and take on the burden of my family. So don't worry about me. You'd better go because staying would only upset you."

Rainie used to be so high-spirited, but now she was holding back her anger for money.

Mango's heart was in pain, but she didn't say anything else.

"I'll wait for you to finish your work."

Mango was also a stubborn person.

Rainie did not try to convince her. It was because she did not have time. After all, she was only an extra. The director was right. He could use another actor at any time. If that happened, the beatings that she had suffered the past hour would be useless!

She took a deep breath and turned to the director before saying, "I'm sorry, director. You can start."

The director was slightly taken aback.

He thought that this woman would walk away or beg him for mercy. However, he didn't expect that she would take it.

As for Mango, she sat by the side and watched. Even the director was wary of her. He wouldn't dare to do anything to Rainie. After all, Nathaniel was well-known for spoiling his wife.

"Let's get started. Try your best to do it in one take."

The director opened his mouth, and the others naturally understood.

Rainie was still in the same position as before. She had put in her best effort to act. Mango watched from the side and did not make a single sound.

Rainie did not stop until it was late at night.

After the director gave her money, he said goodbye to Mango and left.

Rainie's entire body was in pain. After everyone had left, she sat down beside Mango and said through gritted teeth, "Please... please your driver to buy me a bottle of Betadine. Tsk! I really can't walk anymore."

"Hah! I thought you were made of iron. You showed no signs of pain and tiredness."

Mango opened her mouth with some resentment.

Ned hurriedly took out the Betadine that Mango had bought a while ago and passed it over.

"Roll up your sleeves, and I'll apply the medicine for you."

Mango's tone was not rude, but her movements were gentle.

Rainie looked at Mango and said with a smile, "You're only good at using your mouth."

"You cheeky brat!"

Mango helplessly glared at Rainie and said, "Alas! Did you think that I couldn't tell that the director was purposely tormenting you? Did he ask you to do something again? He was angry because you refused him, right? So, he took this opportunity to teach you a lesson. I'll remember this director.

Let's see how I can deal with him later!"

How could Rainie not know about what happened here?

But she needed money now. What could she do?

She sighed and said, "We both know the truth behind it, but I need the money now."

"Do you have to take this path?"

Mango looked at Rainie and asked subconsciously.

Rainie paused for a moment and then nodded and said, "Yes, what else can I do besides this? You've seen our family's conditions. How much money can fill such an abyss? I've asked around. If I can debut, although I can't let them live a better life with my annual income, at least I have some expenses. So I must take this path."

Mango carefully applied the medicine on her. She sighed and said, "Since you've decided, I'll support you."

"Thank you."

Rainie didn't know that Mango was going to start a film company for her. Mango didn't say anything and changed the subject, "Call Denver, he's worried about you."

"Oh, okay."

Rainie took out her phone.

Because of her job, she had no choice but to mute her phone. When she saw that Mango had called her, she smiled and glanced at it before calling Denver.

"I just got off work, and I couldn't pick up any calls during work time. What do you want to talk to me about?"

Rainie was a little tired, but when she called Denver, her tone was so light and bright.

Mango looked at her and suddenly understood.

Rainie only showed her positive and bright side to her family.
