37 Acting Duo (1/2)
Seeing Iris Long's suddenly weak and ill appearance, the staff members were alarmed.
Iris threw a quick, meaningful look at Dom before continuing to sway as if she was going to fall at any moment. She held onto Tang Yiyi's arm tightly as if her life depended on it.
Dom caught his boss' look and immediately understood her intention. Without any hesitation, he brought out his over-the-top, award-worthy acting performance. He gasped loudly. His expression was filled with fear and righteous indignation.
”Oh no! This is bad! Miss Long is going to faint! Don't you know that she was comatose for a year?! Her heart can't handle too much stress! How could you agitate her this way! Quick! Take those troublemakers away! How dare you three bully her?! Do you plan on killing her?! You murderers!”
Dom wailed loudly, alarming the surrounding staff even more.
Tang Yiyi immediately panicked. She had no idea that a performance was currently playing in front of her, starring the acting duo of Iris Long and Dominic Chua.
She wrapped her arms around Iris protectively. Iris dropped her head to her manager's shoulders, closed her eyes, and let her knees buckle.
”Iris!” Tang Yiyi was afraid. She held up Iris' limp body to prevent her from falling on the floor.
Dom swooped down and carried his boss princess-style.
”Is Miss Long gonna be okay?” The staff asked worriedly. ”Someone call an ambulance!”
”No need,” Dom quickly stopped them. ”Miss Long brought her medicine. I'll just give her some and she'll be fine. Just please give us a few minutes to ourselves. I know that Miss Long won't want her condition to cause trouble for you and the show.”
”Yes, yes. Of course. We'll leave you inside your dressing room. Don't hesitate to call any of us and we'll immediately assist you if you need anything.”
”Thank you. Please excuse us.” Dom carried his boss inside the dressing room; a panicked Tang Yiyi following behind them.
”Sis Yiyi, please close the door behind you.”
”Yes, yes.” She fumbled with the door before she was able to close it properly. ”Will Iris be really okay? What do we do now? I think we should call an ambulance. This looks serious. Wait, let me cancel her performance first.”
