Chapter 504: Stay and Watch
Ellie suddenly felt a sense of crisis. This Saniyah hadn't spoken to her since she came. Why was she suddenly here? She said that she knew Kayden, but it was more likely to be her trick. Ellie stood beside Kayden with a nervous expression.
Saniyah didn't really know Kayden. She just wanted to give it a try. Seeing that Ellie was so nervous, she sneered, thinking, 'You can take away my position as the leading lady all because of this man. If I win him over, you'll be nothing.'
"So Ms. Jones is Mr. Kayden's younger sister. No wonder I feel like we have a special bond the first second I saw you." Saniyah smiled with an elegant and unaffected expression. She seemed to be simply flawless. Compared to Ellie, who had been jumping around and laughing, she was completely different. She was like a goddess and Ellie an ill-breeding girl.
Ellie immediately leaned into Kayden's ear and muttered, "How hypocritical! She hasn't spoken to me since she came. She's lying to you, Kayden."
Ellie didn't keep her voice low. She clearly wanted to embarrass Saniyah. However, Saniyah was much more cunning than Ellie. She looked hurt and lowered her head somewhat dejectedly.
'She really knows how to fake it!' Ellie gritted her teeth.
Kayden didn't feel anything special. Saniyah wasn't the woman he loved, so he didn't care if she was embarrassed or not. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
He patted Ellie on the shoulder and said, "Alright, you can do whatever you want. I'm just passing by and paying you a visit."
"Kayden, you are leaving?" Ellie suddenly felt a little reluctant to part with him.
"I just came by to see you. Now that I've seen you, I have to leave. I have a lot of things to do. I'm not like you, doing nothing and thinking about men all day." Kayden sounded a little jealous.
"Kayden, are you jealous? Don't worry. I'm not playing the field. If I get tired of him, I'll send him back." Ellie put her arm around Kayden's shoulder, smiling. "But Kayden, you have to get him here first. I've been thinking about him for a long time."
Kayden regretted it. Why would he mention men? Now Ellie thought of that English guy again.
The young women nowadays talked about fooling around with men all day long. They had a really modern point of view.
The Jones sisters were both weirdoes. The older sister was naïve and innocent, while the younger one was cunning, clever, and mischievous. He and Master Smith must have done something bad in their previous life, so they would fall into their hands this life.
"Alright. Got it. When did I fail to do what I promised you? You can just rest assured and go on with your shooting. I will get it done." Kayden felt a headache. It was easy to say, but how could it be so easy to do it? It was easier said than done.
That was a human being. He couldn't just knock him unconscious and send him to Ellie. Even if he did so, Ellie couldn't force him if that guy didn't say yes to what she said.
Or maybe he could drug this guy before he sent him to Ellie? The more Kayden thought about it, the more he found it sordid.
"Kayden, why don't you stay here for a while? I'm about to shoot my scene. Come and watch me." Ellie grabbed his arm and suggested.
All the staff present collectively wiped away their cold sweat.
He was a gangster! What if he got upset and razed the set to the ground?
...
Kayden hadn't been interested, but when he saw Ellie's expectant gaze, his heart softened and he nodded.
Ellie happily dragged Kayden to the set, leaving a group of staff behind. They looked at each other, dumbfounded.
"Alright, move your ass. Lights, costume, make-up, hurry up and get ready. We'll start shooting later."
The director shouted. Everyone then seemed to recover from the shock and started to work.
"Are you ready for your scene today? Do you want to clear the sit?" The script supervisor walked over to Nico and asked.
The biggest scene was that Ellie, who played the mistress of an underground organization's leader, had romantic sex when she pleaded for Nico's help. In the end, the leader of the underground organization, the supporting role, discovered the whole thing. Then Ellie would be abused by that leader and died in Nico's arms.
It was just acting, so Nico didn't have any problem with filming with Ellie. However, Kayden would be watching then, and Nico didn't know what Kayden would react.
Nico wasn't stupid. He could tell that Mr. Kayden cared much about Ellie. Kayden invested so much in Ellie. Nico knew Kayden didn't just take Ellie as his sister.
Kayden seemed really possessive. Although it was just acting, Nico was afraid that knew Kayden would shoot him dead if he gets over the line somehow.
"No need to clear the site. Ask the director if we could fake the kiss." Nico thought for a moment and said.
The script supervisor immediately understood his worries and couldn't help but admire his thoughtfulness. He nodded and agreed to talk to the director.
Saniyah walked over to Kayden and sat down. While playing her phone, she asked in a causal tone, "How long does Mr. Kayden plan to stay in Venice?"
Kayden was watching Ellie put on her makeup. He replied carelessly, "That depends." He then said nothing else.
"Do you know what they're shooting today?" Saniyah asked on another subject.
Kayden knew what she was trying to say, so he deliberately waited for her to bring it up. Seeing that he did not seem interested, Saniyah could only answer herself. "Today, they are going to shoot a sex scene. Reporters must be dying to see this. 'The fledgling actress hooked up with the popular star Nico and their passionate scene is rumored to be a real affair.' The director has been preparing to hype this scandal for a long time." Saniyah was supposed to be the girl in the scandal.
Hearing these words, Kayden asked, "It's normal to hype a film like this in the industry, but I have never heard of this Nico before. Who is he?"
"Don't you know?" Saniyah said in surprise, "Before Nico became famous, he had been in love with the famous actor Rick. According to reliable sources, Nico kicked Rick away after he became famous and denied they had ever had a relationship, which made Rick sad for a long time. In the end, the King retired from the entertainment industry. But I don't think that's true. Nico is a good actor. If he stayed low-key and just focuses on acting, he would still become popular. He didn't need to lie about his relationship. It would leave him trouble."
"He's gay?" Kayden got the point.
"Well..." Saniyah paused for a second. "The rumors say so."
'Really? If that's the case, then things would be much easier.' A strange light flashed through Kayden's eyes, so fast that no one could see.
"Mr. Kayden, I can see you and Ms. Jones are pretty close," Saniyah spoke again, while Kayden raised his eyebrows, wanting to hear what she would say next.
"I don't have any other intentions. I just feel that there are very few men as nice as Mr. Kayden. I'm just a little envious of Ms. Jones." Saniyah said in a regretful tone.
Kayden looked at her exquisite and beautiful face with deep meaning. He seemed to have realized that this woman was quite smart. Unfortunately, she had gone too far and was not his type.
...
The car stopped in front of a temporarily rented apartment. The so-called exciting bed scene was going to be staged here. The staff got off one after another. Kayden got off the car with a domineering aura. He threw the car door and lit a cigarette. The corner of his mouth was shrouded in smoke, and his gaze was sharper than a group of foreign performers.
This person really was born to play the role of a gangster. He had that aura.
Ellie and Nico were escorted to the makeshift dressing room by the staff. The other residents of the apartment were curious about a large number of people with cameras, so they came over to watch.
"Nico studies the case in his room and Ellie knocks on the door anxiously from outside. Once he opens the door, you pounce on him and ask for protection. After the conversation is over, you two look at each
other with affection and then to the passionate scene. Are you both okay with that?"
Ellie heard the director loud and clear. 'Pound on him? Look at each other? Passionate scene? Director, I like what I'm hearing!' Ellie thought.
When Kayden saw Ellie's expression, he became kind of sad. Nico was very handsome, while Ellie looked especially cute and beautiful today. What a perfect match! Seeing her aggressive expression, Kayden was worried about the love pursuit plan he had yet to carry out.
When they were about to start filming, Kayden started to get annoyed and irritated. Although this sex scene was fake and was only part of her job, he felt uncomfortable when he thought that Ellie was going to have intimate contact with another man.
"Everyone gets ready. We will start."
At this moment, Nico was dressed in a bathrobe, as if he had just left the bathroom. He held a book in one hand and drank tea from the other. He sat on the sofa and pretended to be attentive.
Suddenly, a soul-stirring doorbell rang out from outside the door, as well as a knock on the door, causing Kayden's heart to ache. He knew that once the door was opened, it would be the time for Ellie to throw herself into the embrace of others.
The special effects crew warmed up the scene by creating thunder and rain outside.
Nico opened the door, and Ellie rushed in and threw herself into his arms. Her trembling body was still dripping with raindrops. Anyone could not help loving her upon seeing her.
"Nick, save me." Nick is Nico's name in the play.
"Martina, what exactly happened?" Nico pushed away from the wet hair on her forehead and asked worriedly.
Ellie hugged Nico tightly and said pitifully, "I really can't stand that pervert Jack anymore. You don't even know what he did to me. Take me away from him as far as you can, okay?"
"Calm down and tell me what happened first." Nico pushed her away from a little. It was what the plot required, and was also his reflex.
Ellie's eyes turned red, and her tears were then streamed down. She was really good at crying.
Kayden sighed emotionally from the side. All the tears she had shed on him in the past were probably her acting as well.
She put her hand on her shoulder and pulled off her clothes, exposing more than half of her back. Her fair skin was covered with bruises and swelling created by the dresser's skillful hands as if she had been abused.
Nico seemed to be attracted by the wounds. His face was filled with shock and sorrow. He gently touched the fake wounds, tears rolling in his eyes.
While everyone was intoxicated by this sad atmosphere, Kayden could clearly feel irritated.
He knew that it was fake, but he still couldn't stop himself. He couldn't stop himself from wanting to kill that bastard called Jack.
