Chapter 529

Greg called, “Cut!”

At his order, Naomi scuttled away from Jonathan at once. She was so close to him she could even feel his breathing on her skin.

The young man’s faint and clean scent made her giddy.

Her heart started thumping rapidly, especially when she recalled how close she was to him. To her surprise, his skin was really flawless. There were no visible pores either.

That was the first time she had ever gotten that close to a man.

Jonathan frowned and glared at her unhappily. “Why did you run away so quickly? I nearly fell down!”

Hmph! My fans would kill for the chance to get this close to me!

She seems unappreciative and even dared to push me away quickly.

I’m a popular and handsome idol with millions of adoring fans!

This has to be the first time a girl runs away after a slightly intimate scene alongside me!

He suddenly realized why his manager hired her in the first place.

I’m a popular idol, but she isn’t interested in me. To think of it, I’ve never seen her being excited when she sees me.

Yes, that’s right. She seems completely unaffected by my charm.

Is she blind?

How can she turn a blind eye to my good looks?

Meanwhile, Naomi didn’t know or cared about Jonathan’s thoughts.

All she cared about was Greg’s opinion. Hence, she ran to him and looked at him earnestly, “Maxwell, how did I do just now?”

“Your acting skills are quite immature. There’s room for improvement, but it’s honestly not that bad,” Greg commented coolly. “If you want to be an actress, you need the right attitude and be willing to work hard. This is no place for amateurs to show themselves off. It’s a proper job, so you need to be sincere and respectful. If you’re ready, we can sign a contract now.”

Naomi lowered her gaze and thought about it briefly.

She looked up and met Greg’s gaze determinedly. “Let’s sign the contract. I don’t have any acting experience, but I’m willing to work hard and learn.”

Greg nodded. He didn’t hire himself an assistant, so he took the contract out by himself. “I have two copies. One for you and one for me.”

As he was making a comeback to showbiz, it might be hard for him to cast a popular young actress.

Yet, he was confident he’d guide Naomi well if she were willing to learn.

She might not be able to top A-list actresses, but he couldn’t wait to see how she would compare to the other young actresses.

Besides, there was a rare sort of innocence radiating off Naomi, which was rare to find in other female celebrities in showbiz.

The most important aspect for this assistant was her innocence, for she was a naïve village girl.

And it just so happened that Naomi had the same sort of innocence which was perfect for that character.

Next, Greg found a few other actors and assigned them the other roles in the movie.

They were all unpopular actors who had played as extras or side characters.

Those who were slightly popular had all refused to take part in his movie.

Greg knew he had a terrible reputation, so it was understandable that these actors refused to star in his movie.

In fact, he never wanted to use their popularity to gain popularity.

Greg wanted to introduce himself to the world as a movie director who produced high-quality movies.

Soon, the first day of shooting arrived.

Greg hadn’t expected Angel and Devil to have their opening ceremony in the movie studio on the same day as well.

Angel and Devil had already been hyped up on Twitter even before the shooting had begun.

Everybody showed up at the opening ceremony, including the actors, staff members, director, and scriptwriter.

Frank looked dignified and impressive in a dark grey suit.
