Disabled CEO’s New Wife

“My lady, I’m sorry, and I beg you to let me go with him, for the sake of our true love.”

Bang…

Winnie Hoffmann looked at Rosemary for a long time, then suddenly turned to the director and said, “Mr. Young, I was so nervous that I forgot my lines!”

Rosemary ran her hand over her face. Winnie Hoffmann’s slap was so strong that five bright red hands were clearly printed on her small white face.

Winnie Hoffmann looked at Rosemary apologetically and said, “I’m sorry. I slapped too hard. The director said it should be real, so I can’t help it. I’ll try to be a little lighter later.”

Looking at her innocent face, Rosemary smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter. That’s what happens when you make a play.”

Tina took an ice pack and hurried to help Rosemary with her face. “Does it hurt?” she asked with concern. “She slapped too hard!”

“It’s okay. It was part of the story. Didn’t she just say that? She’ll be as gentle as possible.” Rosemary said helplessly.

Tina didn’t say anything. She just put the ice on her face carefully.

Everyone on set was going about their business as if it was normal.

“Hey, boss, do you want us to talk to them?”

A man in a black suit said to a masked man next to him.

“No. Not yet!”

The man in the mask was staring intently ahead. The silver-gray hand-tailored suit showed off his perfect figure. There was something about him that made people dare not disobey him.

“Director, I’m all set. We can start now!”

“Okay, we’ll start right away!” Said the director courteously.

The director yelled at Rosemary, “Hey, here we go!”

Rosemary stood up, straightened her clothes, and had her makeup artist do some retouching.

The director yelled to the camera, “Everybody on your mark, go!”

Rosemary went to her knees and knelt in front of Winnie Hoffmann. “My lady, I’m sorry. Will you please let me go with him, for the sake of our true love?”

Bang…

“Ungrateful girl, I…”

A snigger…

Winnie Hoffmann pouted and said, “I’m sorry. I couldn’t help it.”

Tina stomped next to her. She was gonna ruin Rosemary’s face. She went up to Winnie Hoffmann and said, “Miss Hoffmann, will you please hold your nerve? Is it okay if you just pretend to hit her? She can’t be slapped again.”

Winnie Hoffmann shrugged. “I’m sorry,” she said. “I don’t have the right to make that decision. After all, the director really made the call.” Then she shouted at the director, “Mr. Young, she says I slapped her too hard. What do you suggest?”

Being called by Winnie Hoffmann like that made the director’s bones crumble. He shouted at Tina, “I did ask for it. The plot needs it! Don’t mess around here. If you don’t want to do this, you can leave.”

Tina walked over to Rosemary, looked at her face and said with concern, “Rosemary, let’s not do it, they are too bullying.”

“It’s okay. I’m fine.”

Then she walked up to the director and said, “That’s ok, director.”

The director looked at her, then turned to the others and said, “Get ready, go!”

Rosemary went to her knees before Winnie Hoffmann, “My lady, I’m sorry, and I beg you to let me go with him, for the sake of our true love.”

Bang…

“Ungrateful girl, I’ve been nice to you, how… how could you…”

“What now?” Asked the director angrily, coming forward.

Winnie Hoffmann looked aggrieved and said, “Mr. Young, it’s her bad expression that affects me!”

Rosemary was in a daze after she slapped her three times. When Winnie Hoffmann said that her expression was not good enough, she tried to defend herself when she heard the director say.

“Do you know how to act or not? If you make such a stupid mistake again, don’t come here.” Said the director angrily.

“There is a 30-minute intermission.”

Tina took the ice bag and helped Rosemary to sit on the seat here, tears dripping down, saying, “Rosemary, why don’t we just drop it? Look, your face is all swollen up.”

“It’s okay. I can handle it. Don’t worry!” Rosemary couldn’t talk without a little pain in her mouth.

The makeup artist came to her side, holding a towel to help Rosemary wipe sweat, and said gently, “Did you offend her?”

Rosemary thought for a moment and then shook her head. She had never met her before. How could she offend her?

“She’s such a pushover that no one but Nathaniel Meyer would ever dare cross her. You just try to play along with her.” The makeup artist kindly suggested.

“Are you saying she likes Nathaniel Meyer?” Rosemary asked in a low voice.

If she liked Nathaniel Meyer, and Nathaniel Meyer didn’t like her, then her current behavior could be explained.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Well, it’s an open secret among us!”

“Rosemary, I guess she thought you were having some kind of relationship with Nathaniel Meyer, so she used this chance to bully you.”

Rosemary was speechless. Why would she know him? She would avoid him when she saw him.

“Leave her alone. I can’t let her beat me so easily.” Rosemary said dryly.

After a while, a man with glasses came along. He said something to the director, and the director nodded respectfully, and soon that man walked away.

Seeing the man off, the director shouted, “Let’s go! Get ready, everybody!”

Rosemary and Winnie Hoffmann walked to the scene. Rosemary was about to drop to her knees when the director came running over like a servant and said, “Miss Harris, I’ve just been asked to switch roles between the two of you.”

“Mr. Young, would you repeat what you just said?” Winnie Hoffmann thought she had misheard.

“Winnie Hoffmann, I’ve just been asked to switch roles between the two of you!” The director repeated.

He dared not offend either of them now. He didn’t know who Rosemary was, and they just cast her as number one.

Tina stepped forward and asked, “Director, did I hear you right? You mean Rosemary as the leading lady, and she as the maid?”

Rosemary looked at the director in disbelief, as if waiting for his answer.

The director reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, “Yes.”
