Chapter 120 I missed you (1/2)

The shoot went on and the set was wrapped up around 8 in the evening. Fortunately, Lexi did a great job on her first day of taping and all NG's weren't caused by her.

Meanwhile, Churu didn't come back the whole day -- Ethan as well. Hence, Lexi managed to focus on acting and memorizing her lines again.

”Sister Lexi, you did great today.” Abigail Fan complimented as she handed over a bottled water to Lexi.

”Thanks,” Accepting the bottled water, Lexi thanked her before opening it and gulped a mouthful of water to salivate her throat.

As they head towards Abigail Fan's car, her manager kept on prattling that Lexi couldn't properly understand as her mind wandered somewhere else.

”Lexi? Sister Lexi?” Seeing that Lexi passed by her car, Abigail Fan called out.

”Oh?” Upon hearing her manager calling her numerous times, Lexi snapped from her daze and looked back with a disoriented gaze.

”This is my ride,” Abigail Fan slightly tilted her head towards her car.

”Uh, yeah. Sorry, I was a little tired.” Slightly shaking her head, Lexi briefly explained before she strode back on the car.

For a moment, Lexi wondered where did those two went. Though it was a good thing that they didn't pestered her again, alas, now that it was evening, Lexi could not help but think about it.

----

Since they were on a side country, far away from the city, everyone would have to spend three consecutive days in the most decent hotel in the town.

As usual, Abigail Fan drove the car and would dropped Lexi to the hotel before she'd go back to the city. After all, she was busy preparing to establish her own agency and Lexi assured her that she'd be fine alone.

”By the way, have you seen the news?” Without turning her head to her side, Abigail Fan broke the awkward silence.

”Hmmm?”

”The Regal Entertainment was now facing a major setback after the prostitution scandal of its VP Victor Wang. *sigh* Who would have thought -- though this us a little benefit because your scandals were buried in an instant. Just a little longer and people will forget about it.” Although Abigail Fan sympathized with the victims of the said man, she was also relieved that it also made Lexi's scandal lessen.

Also, Abigail Fan wasn't surprised about the news as she was well-versed that behind the glitz and glamor of the entertainment industry, there's this unspoken rule that existed.

She didn't want to think about it as Abigail Fan was disgusted with this kind of people. But, despite despising them, she would also have to mingle around them because that's how this industry works. Fortunately, Lexi came from a prominent family, hence, she won't have to experience this terrorizing experience.

”Is that so?” Lexi tirelessly mumbled, uninterested with the outside world. ”Shall I thank the victims then?” She sarcastically added as Lexi stared outside through the window.

For some reason, Lexi didn't appreciate the fact that her scandals were being pushed back by this kind of news. Though she hadn't gone through such horrifying experience, Lexi could somehow feel how those girls felt.

She was an overly sensitive person and just having a male crossing her vicinity, her discomfort was enough to lash out on them. What more if she was forced to use her body to get a project?

Just thinking about it, Lexi wanted to puke in disgust. Thus, the least she could do was be apathetic about it and shouldn't see it as an opportunity to wash her name.
