My Domineering CEO Husband

Chapter 28 Why Should I Help Her?



When Lottie arrived at Natalia’s studio, she realized that the atmosphere inside the studio was horribly dull.

It seemed that the director’s anger had just subdued and he was now drinking tea while still feeling a bit annoyed.

Natalia’s face was pale as she sat in the corner, her fingers tightly squeezing the script.

“What’s wrong?”

Lottie cautiously approached Noel and asked in a soft voice.

“This is a scene with only inner monologues.”

Noel lowered his voice, “This scene is to shoot Natalia’s emotional changes. She has to perform different emotions from anger, to ecstasy, to despair, and to relief in one shot.”

“Yesterday, Natalia has redone the scene a couple of times but she still couldn’t do it. The director told her to go home and calm down. In the end, she still did not act in the way the director wanted.”

After saying that, Noel also released a sigh of relief, “This is also not her first day in acting, and to expect such a performance from her is really too hard.”

As Lottie pursed her lips, she slowly walked towards Natalia and sat down on the chair beside her.

“Can I take a look?”

Natalia felt very annoyed, and she was even more annoyed when she heard Lottie’s voice.

As she was still distracted by her emotions, she did not care about the identity of the woman in front of her. Natalia immediately threw the script to Lottie, “Read it. Just read it.”

“What does a stunt double like you know?”

Lottie pursed her lips, took the script, and briefly gave a glance. After looking through the script, she looked for Noel and asked him for a piece of paper and a pen to write and draw on.

People around kept coming to comfort Natalia, but they were all coldly ignored by Natalia.

Finally, the director came over and gave Natalia her final chance. This scene must be finished by this afternoon!

Natalia acted in front of the mirror. However, she always felt unsatisfied. In the end, she smashed two mirrors in anger.

“You should try again.”

When Natalia broke the second mirror, Lottie finally stopped writing and smiled at Natalia, “The scriptwriter only wrote out the emotional changes. So, I sorted out the relationship between the roles in the scene. The female lead here is emotional because she thought of these three people in these three moments.”

She handed Natalia that piece of paper, “I hope it can help you.”

Natalia gave her a blank look, “Ms. Green, don’t make more trouble for me.”

“Natalia is being annoyed enough.”

Natalia flattened her lips, took the piece of paper, and casually glanced at it.

After that, her eyes began to shine with hope.

Why didn’t she think of it? The heroine was actually thinking of these three people at these three moments!

So, she looked into the mirror and started the act all over again.

This time, she did not break the mirror again.

Half an hour later, Natalia acted in front of the camera and finished the performance.

Neither more time nor tape was wasted, and she acted the scene in one go.

The director gave Natalia a thumbs up, “Great Natalia, the film queen. You adjusted so quickly and sensed the emotions so precisely. Awesome!”

“Thank you.”

At lunchtime, Natalia took Lottie to a high-end restaurant that was located opposite the Filming Town.

She smiled and looked at Lottie, “I underestimated you before.”

“You have such a good understanding of the characters and you also know fighting skills, but why do you keep working as a stunt double in the Filming Town?”

“I think with your beautiful face and your great acting skills, you will become a hot star if you work as an actress.”

Lottie smile while she ate the boiled fish, “I don’t plan to be an actress. It’s good to be a stunt double.”

Natalia frowned, “You do the most dangerous work as a stunt double in the Filming Town. In fact, you also do all of this for money.”

“If you work as an actress, you will definitely earn more than a stunt double, so why not?”

Lottie smile and lowered her eyebrows, “I have a dark past. I don’t want to be watched by too many people. Besides, if my enemies know I am working here, I even can’t work as a stunt double here.”

“I like where I am right now.”

Natalia did not expect her to give this excuse.

After a long silence, she raised her head to look at Lottie, “Then in the future, if I have a problem like what I faced today…”

“You can just ask me everything.”

Lottie hurriedly spoke, “In this regard, I still have some experience.”

After all, even Isobel, an unskilled Internet celebrity who did not even graduate from junior high school, became a candidate for the Taurus Award for the Best Newcomer with the help of Lottie.

“Then you’ll only be my exclusive stunt double from now on, and I won’t treat you badly.”

Lottie nodded while eating, “Thank you, boss!”

Natalia smiled and took out her phone to send a message to Kayden, “Does your aunt have a dark past?”

Dark past?

Looking at the message on the phone, Kayden frowned and glanced at the man who was still working with his head down in the distance, “Uncle Ralph.”

Ralph did not look up, “Speak.”

“What dark history does your wife have?”

The noble yet cold man stopped writing, “What do you mean? A dark past?”

“Yeah.”

Kayden climbed up from the sofa and held the phone out to Ralph, “The person I arranged has mentioned to Lottie about being a full-time actress but Lottie still refused by saying that she has a dark past.”

The man raised his hand and closed the file gently, “I’ve only known her for less than a month. So, I’m not sure.”

Kayden was speechless.

“Ralph, you married her before you knew her?”

The reserved yet arrogant man picked up another document and opened it, nodding his head while reading it, “Yep.”

Kayden rolled his eyes, “Then why did you marry her?”

“Elijah likes her.”

“Fabian is also fond of her too.”NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

The man raised his head and looked at him, “Is this reason enough?”

Kayden remained silent again.

“This reason is indeed good enough…”

“However, Ralph, it’s you who’s getting married, not those two little kids. You’re only thinking about them and not thinking for yourself?”

“I will not be in love with any women at all.”

“So, if both Elijah and Fabian are fond of her, she will be suitable for me.”

After finishing his sentence, the man picked up a pen and began to sign his name on the document, “I leave the investigation of her dark past to you.”

Kayden was speechless yet again.

So he found trouble for himself again?

In the afternoon, Lottie remained by Natalia’s side to help her analyze the script.

During the time Natalia was acting, she went outside to the supermarket to buy some bottled water.

When she returned to the set, she passed by the studio where Luke and Isobel were. Several actors could be seen gossiping.

“Luke’s girlfriend is really ridiculous. She cannot even act out such a simple character!”

“With this kind of acting skills, she is actually still one of this year’s Taurus Award candidates, but she did not even get any scene right for the entire morning.”

“I really don’t know how she got to be a full-time actress.”

Hearing their words, Lottie could not help but laugh.

Isobel never actually learned how to act before. She was able to do so before was because Lottie was helping her by analyzing the characters and the emotions of those characters.

Now that she had left her, she did not expect Isobel to be so unskilled.

“Lottie!”

As she was about to walk away and leave, a male voice called out to her. It was Luke.

He walked over with big steps and pulled her aside, “I already asked. Natalia doesn’t need a stunt double to help her today, so you don’t have any work for today.”

After saying that, he directly shoved Isobel’s script into her hand, “Go and analyze the script for Isobel. The sooner the better.”

Isobel seemed to be unable to continue acting!

Lottie glanced at the script in her hand and laughed, “Why should I help her?”
