Nemesis Game novel Chapter 40

Samantha stopped and looked directly at Peyton. "You think too much," she said lightly

A chill past through Peyton's pretty face. "Shame on you. Since you come to me to ask for trouble, I won't show any mercy to you."

It was strange that the woman looked so calm. Wasn't she supposed to panic? Did she find a way to save Stanley?

Samantha said coldly, "What makes you so confident? Peyton, the war between us has just begun. It is still unknown who will win. "

Peyton's proud smile disgusted Samantha from the bottom of her heart.

However, she was also looking forward to see how furious Peyton was if she knew how Stanley was saved!

She felt relieved at the thought of it.

"Are you sure? Is still unknown who will win? But I don’t think so. You are the loser from the beginning to the end. Wait, I'll let you get out of the cast. How can a woman like you match me? " Peyton glanced at her with pride, then walked away with a smile.

People who was not aware of their relationship thought they were catching up on each other, but in fact, they gave tit for tat.

Samantha went to the dressing room to change her clothes. After that, she was waiting to film.

With her hand wrapped with gauze, she thought of Ruben's action last night inexplicably.

At the thought of having to face him tonight, she frowned unconsciously.

……

After a scene was finished, Director Solomon gave her a thumbs up, "Well, you did a good job today. It's not easy."

Director Solomon also felt a little guilty. The reason why Helena was out of form yesterday was probably that she was in a bad mood. She was perfect in today's play!

"Thanks to you, Director Solomon. Your instructions are very helpful," said Samantha, showing a gentle smile.

She couldn’t go straight as before. The reason why Peyton was able to shift the blame on her was that she knew that everyone hated her.

"Well, take a break. You're the next one. Keep working."

As Peyton read the script and listened to them from time to time, the hatred in her eyes grew.

What was the big deal? What was she so proud of?

Next, she was about to play opposite Helena, and she must make her look bad!

Acting was her advantage, while Helena was just a foil.

The scenes where Samantha played against Peyton was mainly about the heroine's rebirth and escape from the trap of the supporting role by using her intelligence. She returned to the Scott family unharmed, but was misunderstood by everyone that she was not clean, and the supporting role was constantly smearing her.

It was a challenge for Peyton.

But it would be very easy for Samantha, because she was once trapped by Peyton?

She understood the grievance and sadness that she could not explain.

It was a match for the heroine and the supporting role who was scheming.

Director Solomon simply talked to them about the play before they started shooting.

"Start!"

At the gate of the Scott’s, the heroine stared by Samantha came back to the Scott’s with bumps and bruises all over her, followed by the supporting role, played by Peyton.

"Sister, you are back finally. I’ve heard that you have been taken away and you have already suffered misfortune. Thank god you’re back. Everything had gone." Seeing Samantha, Peyton stepped forward and nervously grasped her hand.

Unfortunately, Samantha's hand was injured only yesterday. At this time, the wound didn't heal. When Peyton grabbed her so hard, Samantha's hand was in great pain, but she held it back.

She would try her best to stop Peyton having her way again! After all, she managed to neutralize the advantage of her.

The most irritating thing was that Peyton actually changed her lines.

"Cut." Director Solomon stopped and looked at Peyton. "You changed the lines."

Peyton said with a smile, "Director, I just think the lines are not perfect, so I made some adjustments. I think it would be better to show the girl's scheming. It's my fault. I didn't expect Miss Powell can't follow my play."

Well, wasn't this saying that Helena was not good at improvisation?

No one blamed Peyton for changing the lines personally, which was the taboo in acting. On the contrary, Helena was blamed for incompetence and being unable to follow the play and keep up with the pace.

"Helena, get ready and go on." Director Solomon choked for a moment and let it go, realizing that Peyton said nothing wrong.

Shooting started again.

"I suffered misfortune? Did they say it, or did you say it, sister? " asked Samantha, looking at her with cold eyes.

The eyes were perfect in the play, and Director Solomon couldn't help clapping his hands.

This was the look she was supposed to have when she woke up from the rebirth and saw her sister who murdered her.

When Peyton heard this line, she took a stern look and scolded, "What's the matter with you? Shouldn't you look at me before you say your lines? "

"I did." Samantha withdrew her hand and her face turned pale.

Director Solomon was sensitive. If he still failed to realize there was something between them, his experience in directing career would be in vain.

But there was someone standing behind Peyton to support her, and he couldn’t say harsh words to Helena.

What should he do?

The sudden change paused the shooting. People all around looked over and subconsciously felt that Helena, the new actress, had made a mistake again.

Peyton didn't show a trace of anger on her face. On the contrary, she explained kindly, "I didn't see you look at me at all. You bowed your head so quickly. I hadn’t ready for the mood yet. You are already the heroine. You don't need to steal the show and be the centre of attention anymore."

She put another blame on Samantha. Stealing the show was another taboo for actors.

Managing to hold back her desire to slap her face in the past, Samantha was ready to speak.

"You can’t even be ready for the mood. Why are you being an actress? I don’t think you deserve to be the movie queen.” The voice of sarcasm rang out from the air.

Everyone's expression was changed, and Samantha also looked along the sound.

What came into view was a pretty face, and those amorous eyes were charming.

Samantha was in a daze, staring at him. He was so beautiful!

Mateo, who was scheming and sharp-tongued, dealt Peyton a head-on blow at the first encounter, attracting everyone’s attention and waiting to have a good laugh at her.

Peyton's face turned white, "There’s still a gap between my acting skills and yours."

Mateo blew a whistle and looked at her. "I’m glad you know about it. Is that the strength of the movie queen to let a person wait for your mood to arrive, isn’t it?? What a shame. "

Mateo harsh words impressed Samantha.

However, Mateo had reasons to be proud. Compared to Peyton, who won Best Actress of Golden Orchid Awards in China, Mateo was different. As the favorite of the film circle, he won domestic and foreign awards with his first play. He thought nothing of Peyton's prize.

Peyton was forced to keep her resentment to herself. In order to keep her image, she managed to apologize, "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Mateo, who was standing besides Samantha, smiled wantonly, "There’s something wrong with your acting and yourself. You should say sorry to her. "

He raised his finger to Samantha with coldness in his eyes.

He was interested to see how Peyton would continue her acting!

Originally, he was not trying to help Helena, who had nothing to do with him, but at the second thought, he would be glad to upset Peyton.

Samantha took a look at him subconsciously. Why did he help her?

She and Mateo were not familiar with each other, and she had never met him once.

Why did he dare to offend Peyton?

Probably he was the only one who dared to provoke Peyton, the super movie queen!

Embarrassed as Peyton was, she had no way but to apologize to Samantha.

Peyton kept cursing Samantha, and she was furious that Mateo dared not to show any respect to her.

"Helena, sorry, it's my problem. I wasn’t ready for the mood," Peyton said with red eyes.

She seemed to be very sincere instead of being forced by Mateo.

Peyton, such a delicate lady, had never been humiliated like this.

Mateo didn’t show any respect to her.

"You don't have to apologize to me." She smiled slightly, and retorted, "After all, it's not my time to be put off, but the progress of the whole crew. You should not apologize to me, but the whole crew."
