Her assistant, who was looking over her shoulder, frowned upon seeing that an underwater scene had been added for today.


    "Yvonne, you can''t go in the water today..."


    "It''s fine. Just get me a pair of wetsuit bottoms," Yvonne interrupted.


    Mignon Powell had already created a huge headache for Director Ward. If Yvonne refused now, it would put him in an impossible position.


    Whether as a police officer or an actress, Yvonne was always professional and never wanted to cause trouble for others.


    "We appreciate your understanding, Ms. Jones." After the assistant director left, Yvonne''s assistant found the wetsuit bottoms but still looked worried.


    "Yvonne, you''re on your period. It''s almost summer, but the water is still cold. What if you catch a chill?"


    "It''s fine. I''m not made of paper," Yvonne said with a smile.


    Yvonne put on the wetsuit bottoms and had the makeup artist apply waterproof makeup before heading to the set.


    Filming with an idiot like Mignon was always an ordeal. Fortunately, Director Ward''s standards for her were low, so they usually moved on quickly.


    But today, Mignon was clearly being difficult on purpose, making all sorts of basic mistakes to force retakes.


    Yvonne had to stay in the water the entire time.


    Even though it was nearly summer, the water was still cold. In her past life, Yvonne had been incredibly fit; as a police officer, she could handle any kind of intense training.


    But this body had been malnourished since childhood and had undergone heart surgery. After soaking in the water for a while, her face turned pale.


    "That''s good enough. Cut!" Even Director Ward couldn''t stand it anymore and had someone pull Yvonne out of the water.


    Mignon, however, wasn''t satisfied and continued to find fault.


    "Director, I just messed up my lines. How can that be a good take? We should do at least a few more. And you didn''t even film my good side!"


    "So you know you messed up your lines. Your acting is atrocious, and your attitude is even worse. You want to make it in the entertainment industry? Don''t make meugh."


    Even the good-tempered Director Ward couldn''t stop himself fromshing out at Mignon.


    After his outburst, Director Ward told the departments to take a short break. Mignon watched as the crew


    helped Yvonne out of the water and her assistant wrapped arge bath towel around her.


    Still not having tormented Yvonne enough, Mignon stomped her foot in frustration.


    "Director Ward, none of those takes were good enough! How can you approve them? I demand a reshoot!"


    "Who''s the director here, you or me? Do you want my job? Ms. Powell, as long as you''re in the scene, it will never be good enough! Director Ward shot back, then ignored her.


    Furious, Mignon marched over to Yvonne. "We''re not done filming! Get back in the water right now!"


    Yvonne, wrapped in the nket her assistant had brought, didn''t even spare Mignon a nce.


    Being ignored made Mignon see red. She reached out to shove Yvonne. But Yvonne sidestepped her, and Mignon didn''t even touch the edge of her robe. Instead, with a swift kick from Yvonne, she was sent tumbling off the bank and into the water.


    "Ah!" Mignon shrieked as she plunged into the cold water.


    She thrashed around wildly. The bank was lined with people-actors and crew members—but everyone acted as if they hadn''t seen a thing, calmly going about their business.


    Mignon wasn''t just bossy on set; she was thoroughly insufferable. There wasn''t a single person in the crew who didn''t dislike her.


    After iling in the cold water for some time, Mignon finally managed to climb out on her own.


    She was soaked from head to toe, looking like a drowned rat, utterly pathetic.
