He sighed, wishing he would get the chance to speak to her more properly.
Martha nudged Liam on the hand, grabbing his attention. "What are you looking at?" She asked him, looking in the direction where his view was and itnded on Selene. "She looks beautiful doesn’t she?" Martha asked.
She and Liam have been friends for a long time since both of them started their careers from scratch. They were best friends who strived together until they achieved their dreams. Now, they were both one of the most famous actors in Radiantia.
"I don’t know," Liam responded. Without giving her the chance to say anything else, he added, "I will be going ahead."
He left while Martha stared at his retreating back with a faint smile that didn’t reach her eyes. She sighed before she left as well.
When director Jeunes arrived, everyone immediately got into position.
"ACTION!!" He screamed through the microphone. Unfortunately for him, the people near him had anticipated that word so they closed their ears in advance.
Selene walked out of the pce, intending to leave and go back to her father’s kingdom before she got married to King Ardine.
King Ardine had the bodyguards try to stop her but they didn’t dare to since the queen was ring at them, daring them to touch her.
She was still the queen and she could have them punished if they dared touch her.
King Ardine continued to plead for her forgiveness but she didn’t pay any attention to him.
As Selene was about to take one more step, she felt her shoes break, turning her ankle at an odd angle as she yelped in pain.
Michelle smirked from where she stood, staring at Selene.
Immediately, everyone came to Selene’s help. Since Liam was the closest to her, he helped her stand up but she couldn’t walk so he had to carry her.
Selene’s eyes widened in shock when she found her feet lifting away from the ground. But the shock wasn’t enough to suppress the pain she felt in her right ankle.
Everyone was amazed when they saw Liam lift Selene off the ground. The girls blushed, wondering how strong he was. They covered their mouths as they murmured between themselves, wishing they were in Selene’s position.
Liam gently settled Selene on the chair that was arranged by the crew.
"What happened?" Director Jeunes asked, his face and everyone’s face etched with confusion
At first, she was acting without any problem before she suddenly yelped in pain.
"My shoe broke," said Selene, wincing in pain as she tried to bnce her feet on the ground, but she couldn’t. The pain was burning too much. "And my ankle bent," she added, closing her eyes to try to suppress the pain.
Everyone’s eyesnded on a piece of the shoe that was where she fell then looked at her left, where her ankles were bent.
"How did your shoes break?! Didn’t the stylist check everything before she gave you the shoes?!" Director Jeunes barked, obviously annoyed with the turn of events. His lead actress had been injured due to the carelessness of one of his crew members. "Where’s the stylist?" He questioned out loud.
Natalie rushed out when she heard her name being called by other people.
When she saw Selene’s ankle which didn’t look normal, she gasped.
"Ms. Selene, what happened to you?" She asked, worry etched on her face. But Selene was in too much pain to open her mouth to speak.
Kace went to her to try to rub her feet but she wouldn’t let him near it.
"Selene’s shoes broke while she was acting, how on earth did that happen?" Director Jeunes questioned the young girl, whose heart was already beating loudly in her chest.
"What?" She gasped, her eyes alsonding on the parts of the shoes that were in different locations. "I promise you, director, I always check the clothes and shoes that Ms. Selene wears. I don’t know how this happened," the girl panicked.
In a situation like this, a lot of people might think she had done something like that to sabotage Selene and the movie. It had been a regr urrence in the movie industry.
Tears flowed out of her eyes. Director Jeunes was a serious man who didn’t like any mistakes in his movies and she believed she had messed up.
"Well, how do you exin how the shoes broke?" Director Jeunes questioned, his eyes ring at her, expecting an exnation that she didn’t have.
"I might have an idea who was behind this," Kace suddenly spoke and everyone’s attention went to him. "It was Michelle."
