The heat was intense, and a small patch of L''s back was damp with sweat. When the wind blew, it felt chilling against her skin.
She frowned slightly and wiped her sweat with a tissue.
Just as she was about to sit down, she received a call from Jamie.
"Ms. Hart, Teddy got into an ident. You need toe quickly." Her voice trembled, making it nearly impossible to speak.
"Don''t panic. I''ll be there right away."
Her heart tightened at the news. Jamie had aid-back personality, so she wouldn''t lose herposure unless something serious happened.
L hurriedly exined to Samuel and then rushed toward the scene.
Teddy was injured while filming a scene with Zara, where he yed the male supporting role protecting the female lead.
The scene was set on a high tform, and he was supposed to be knocked down nearby. Just as he had run up from below, Zara somehow tripped, pushing him in her panic.
Caught off guard, he missed his footing and tumbled down several flights of stairs, breaking his leg.
"You did it on purpose! There''s nothing here. How could you possibly trip?" As L approached, she overheard Jamie''s furious voice.
Zara was crying, clutching her chest as if she were overwhelmed with grief.
She choked out a rebuttal, "Jamie, I know you''re good friends and care about Teddy. He got hurt because of me, and I feel guilty. I wish it had been me who fell instead.
"You can be angry with me, but you can''t wrongfully use me.
.
"There are so many people watching. The director and Dorian were there too. How could I have done it on purpose? I have no grudge against Teddy. Why would I want to harm him?"
Dorian supported Zara, who was almost unable to stand from crying, and red at Jamie with a dark expression. "You need to speak with evidence. You''ve only been with L for a while and already learned from her unreasonable temper?"
"Mr. ke, what does this have to do with Ms. Hart? You can''t be so unreasonable. I saw it clearly. She did it on purpose!" Jamie bit back, her expression defiant. She showed no signs of being intimidated by Dorian''s status.
"You saw it when so many others didn''t?" Dorian narrowed his eyes.
Her stubbornness was strikingly simr to L''s!
It was pretty annoying.
Last night, he had asked Ethan to invite L, but unexpectedly, she had already informed the hotel in advance that she wouldn''t see anyone.
When he arrived this morning, he went to her film crew to find her, but the security guard had blocked him directly outside.
He hadn''t evenid eyes on her yet!
Dorian couldn''t help butugh in anger.
Jamie was quite good at pretending to be indifferent. If she pursued a career in
the entertainment industry, she might even win more awards than L!
The more she pretended not to care, the more it indicated her guilt.
Dorian returned to the film crew with a dark expression, unaware of what was good for him.
Since she deliberately avoided him, he would make here to him!
However, this troublesome matter had already arisen before he could think of a way to do that.
Suddenly, he saw a hurried figure approaching and narrowed his eyes slightly.
L squeezed into the crowd, shielding Jamie behind her. "Whether it''s true or not isn''t for Dorian to decide alone. I refuse to believe that such arge crew has no surveince."
She had overheard a few people discussing the situation. Teddy''s injury was supposedly rted to Zara, which seemed too coincidental.
"Mr. Lawson, I''m Teddy''s manager. I need the truth about his injury." She looked at the director, who had been silent all this time.
Leonard had learned about L''s connection to the Morgan family a while ago and had recently heard about her position changes at Nexus Entertainment.
Knowing that she was bringing two neers to the crew, this was the first time Leonard had officially faced L in the film crew.
The situation was indeed suspicious, but Dorian was clearly protecting Zara.
He wasn''t sure about L''s attitude toward the two neers under her management, so he hesitated to speak up.
