He silently looked at the monitor.
Various angles were playing back the scene just captured.
The green screen background would later be transformed into the grand, atmospheric backdrop of the Sky Realm.
At this moment, it appeared that while the crowd’s momentum was sufficient, the background was somewhat distracting.
Yet, despite the distracting scene, he found that the version of himself on screen seemed unfamiliar to him.
Every micro-expression, every movement, every tone was unfamiliar to him.
This...
Is that him?
"Margaret, you did really well. Just keep up this state from now on. I’ve always heard that your acting wasn’t good, but it seems you’ve been holding back, haha."
Matthew Timberlake was rarely this talkative.
Margaret White looked slightly awkward, unable to smile.
His poor acting skills were not just hearsay, but a fact.
Though he didn’t let others say so, he wasn’t unaware of how bad he truly was.
With complex emotions, he glanced at the screen again, then looked toward Bella Green sitting in the distance with a hot pack.
He was sure that it was Bella Green’s gaze that brought him into character.
Though it felt incredible, it was indeed so.
He lowered his head, quietly walked to another spot, and sat down.
The little assistant immediately came forward and handed over a cup of hot water.
"Young Master, you were amazing! Did you see? Even Director Tan was stunned by you. Hahaha, at that moment, you were practically possessed by Yusuf, vivid and lifelike. As expected, my brother is incredible, talented in many ways, effortlessly mastering singing, dancing, acting... blah blah blah..."
Listening to the assistant’s continuous barrage of flattery, Margaret White, blushing for a rare moment, glared at him.
"Shut up, get lost."
The assistant looked confused; how did his flattery fall flat?
The Young Master always loved to hear this?
...
It seemed he found a spark of feeling, combined with his earlier performance and Matthew Timberlake’s reaction.
Margaret White stayed silent for a long time, then took out his phone, opened a reading app, clicked on a book from the shelf, turned to the front, and seriously began reading again.
Behind him, Leo Foster, who was passing by to get water, glanced at the content on Margaret White’s phone and couldn’t help but pause.
When he returned to Bella Green’s side, he couldn’t help but speak up.
"What got into Margaret to suddenly read the original book so seriously? I heard at last year’s New Year’s Eve gala, he couldn’t even be bothered to attend rehearsals. On the night of the event, he winged it, almost driving the backup dancers crazy."
Bella Green glanced at Margaret White lightly and withdrew her gaze: "Oh, maybe it’s a guilty conscience. Perhaps he feels he shouldn’t let down the investment his brother put in for him, seeing as he’s backed by funds."
Leo Foster’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch, thinking how absurdly believable it sounded.
...
In the afternoon, the filming went relatively smoothly.
Although Margaret White still had some mishaps, it was much better than in the morning.
The crew was filled with admiration for Young Master White, who was so studious, hardworking, and diligent.
After wrapping up the day’s shoot, Bella Green took off her makeup and changed clothes. Leo Foster walked in with his phone.
"Mr. Jiang is waiting for you outside the crew."
Bella Green smiled at the words, grabbed her bag, greeted Leo Foster, and bounced away happily.
Her demeanor made Leo Foster find it amusing, shaking his head as he turned to leave.
Margaret White had intended to find Bella Green, but ended up missing her...
...
Outside the crew, Bella Green immediately spotted a car parked by the roadside and the man leaning against it casually.
