Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 78

“Well, why don’t you two talk about your favorite movie made by Olivia?”

Tom is leaning back on the chair, slightly raises the head, squints and says, “Then you, go first.”

He points to Jessica, who is sitting opposite him.

Jenny looks up at Jessica and finds that her face turns pale

She knows that Jessica never watches literary films and falls asleep every time when she goes to the cinema to see such films. She thinks such films are meaningless, but Olivia’s films are mostly of this type.

The atmosphere stiffens.

“Everyone is here. It’s so exciting. I’ve just come back from jet lag, so I’m sorry.”

A clear female voice burst in, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

Jenny raises her head suddenly and sees the woman in the black and white check autumn and winter catwalk of Venchy. And the big waves of chestnut brown are simply tied in a ponytail. What’s more, her angelic face seems to be only lightly made up. In a word, she seems to be the perfect combination of east and west art.

It is Sky.

Her appearance is amazing.

“Sky?” Jessica stares as if in disbelief.

Based on her understanding of Jessica, Jenny guesses that she must be struggling at the moment. Jessica is the queen of movies, while Sky is the queen of songs. In this variety show, their positions have collided, and their interest disputes are inevitable in the future.

But Jessica knows the rules of ingratiation better than anyone else.

She quickly accepts the fact, smiling broadly. “I’ve heard about you. Aren’t you abroad?” Nice to meet you...”

“You’re welcome. I’ve heard of you, too.”

Sky’s reply lets Jessica feel uncomfortable.

Clearly this is not what Jessica wants.

“I’ve brought breakfast. If you haven't eaten yet, take some. If you have, do I the favor of taking some?” Sky calls the staff behind her to give out food. When she arrives, everyone praises her very much. Not only the artists, but also the staff on the scene like such artists.

Tom glances at the breakfast box on the table, stick s a piece of fruit salad into his mouth with his own fork, and slowly continues the conversation.

“We are just saying, as fans of Olivia, you should know some of her movies and have your own unique opinions?”

“The fans? Who says that he is a fan of Olivia? It is so coincident?” Sky is sitting opposite to Olivia, looking surprised and excited, “I heard from the staff today that Olivia is here, and I want to ask for an autograph. Someone does it before me?”

“It is indeed, both of them are here.” Tom nods, “Well, you are the third one, but now on one can say something about Olivia’s movies, is it so funny?”

Jenny looks at the breakfast, frowns, and is about to speak when Sky begins to speak softly.

“My favorite is the film of Red Stone, in which the love during the war is forced to separate, and all kinds of strange things happen later, which make people cry easily...What is worth mentioning is the scene in which Olivia wants to marry someone else in the movie. Her eyes are especially painful...Well, I’m not a professional actor, and the reviews are my own feelings, so if I say something wrong, please forgive me.”

Sky looks at Olivia and smiles shyly.

Tom mutters, “It seems that you have seen some films.”

Tom feels unhappy and looks at Jenny, “What about you? You are the first to sign.”

Then Jenny begins to say something. For Jenny, it's a lot of pressure to comment on Olivia’ movies.

“Compared to the Red Stone, I prefer “Arabian”. The plot is not tight, but I like that song inside, as well as the scene on a rainy day. All students throw away the umbrella in the rain to play with each other and she is the only one stick to hold an umbrella, then her girlfriends ask her why not play together, she says that she only wears a coat in winter. The scene of crying in the umbrella is very shocking.”

There’s a lot of whispering going on in the conference room right before Jenny finishes her talking.

“Arabian? Is there a movie? Have you heard of it?”

“No.”

Jenny is a little choked up by the noise around her.

Sky's eyes show a subtle mockery.

For a moment, Olivia’s gentle voice sounded at her side. “I sang the end song,” she says.

There is a sudden hush in the meeting room.

“It is my first movie, but I am not the leading lady, so it's normal for people not to have seen it. Besides, it is screened in a few small theaters, and it is released in two days because few people like it.”

Olivia says with some regret, and looks at Jenny, “I never thought someone would remember the movie.”

Jenny lowers her head and smiles.

It was her father who took her to see it when she was a child. At that time, there were few people in the hall.

“The history of acting as a walk-on is revealed now. Well, let’s forget it.”

When Olivia finishes talking, the atmosphere of the meeting room becomes harmonious.

No one sees her tapping Jenny's hand quietly under the table. The warmth of her palm makes Jenny happy.

Does this mean she has been recognized by her superiors?

As for Tom, he just hums coldly and ignores them.

The director and the writer have the slides ready, they’re ready to begin, and then someone asks, “Who’s not here? Call their agents. Now let’s start first, and the artists are very busy,”

Jenny frowns and looks at the empty seat opposite her.

Who hasn't arrived yet?

The bearded Director Wu is the main director of this variety show. The slide goes to the first page,

“Let me introduce myself. You can call me Mr. Wu. Before the meeting, I have to declare one thing with you. I believe that you must consult with your agent before agree to sign the terms of the variety of confidentiality and content of the contract, so please try to obey the arrangement of the directors, if you can't accept someone, please let me know.”

“You mean that through the communication, then I can refuse it?”

“No,” Mr. Wu looks at Tom, “I don't care what background you have, or how great you are, you must unconditionally submit to this reality show arrangement. If you want to refuse, there is only one way.”

“What method?”

“You breach the contract.”
