Nemesis Game novel Chapter 49

Yes, her life was ruined long ago.

The culprits were Ruben Knight and Peyton Moore. She had nothing to lose if she could take revenge!

She could even sacrifice herself.

Peyton was hot-tempered lately due to the humiliation she received from Mrs. Knight and Caelan’s incident. She didn’t care about her useless brother but the fact that Ruben brought Helena to the hospital pissed her off.

This alerted Peyton—something was going on between Ruben and Helena.

Marrying Ruben was her lifelong dream, she had to marry him, and now she had to do something.

As long as Peyton did not make troubles at the shooting, Samantha could ignore her temporarily.

She had to shoot with Peyton today. Her role was saved and was not raped but Peyton’s role claimed that she was infected.

She was thrown out by her family while Peyton planned to kill her secretly to stop her from marrying the hero.

The first scene would be shot soon. She was pushed into a pond and was tortured by Peyton.

Peyton stared fiercely like a viper at her at the set.

Samantha staggered, but Director Solomon shouted, “Ready, three, two, one, action!”

She left everything behind once it was rolling. Samantha jumped into the water professionally.

Despite it was summer, the water in the pond was still quite chilly.

Samantha shook in cold soon after she jumped into the pond.

Her condition was good, but Peyton forgot her lines, “Ops… Sorry, I forgot my lines.”

It was common to forget lines, Solomon did not say anything and let her check her script.

Samantha crawled out from the pond and prepared herself for a reshoot.

It was hard to tell whether Peyton forgot her line intentionally or not.

Soon after, Peyton walked over confidently, she swept a glance at Samantha who was soaked all over.

The corner of her lips lifted, she looked evil.

Although she could not do anything to Samantha now, she could bully her on the set.

Mateo was absent today, and it meant no one would speak out for her!

“Three, two, one, action!”

Samantha jumped into the cold pond again in full force.

Peyton stared fiercely at Samantha who was struggling in the pond. “Lillian I told you! You will die if you go against me! I could be merciful if you didn’t come home! But now, you shall die!”

Though Samantha struggled in the pond with resentment, her acting was good, “Elsie…”

She had swallowed a mouthful of water in the pond, but Peyton made mistake again at the end.

This shot could have been done in one take but Peyton’s mistake made Solomon angry. He shouted, “You forgot your line again?”

Peyton pretended to be innocent, “Sorry, I’m so sorry… I forgot there is still another line. I’ll read again, please retake the scene!”

Peyton got down with the help of her assistant, the long soaked Samantha crawled out from the pond again.

She wanted to hit Peyton so much. She meant it.

She walked over barefooted and glanced towards Peyton.

Peyton was drinking water leisurely, the smile on her face signified a success of an evil plan.

Samantha bit her lower lips and asked Clara to contact Mateo.

She won’t be bullied like this. Did she think she could do anything she wanted?

Peyton kept making mistake, let alone Samantha, and everyone on the set felt Peyton was doing it intentionally.

Samantha had jumped over ten times into the pond, her whole body was trembling in cold, she felt dizzy.

One last time, Peyton apologized, “Sorry Helena, I’m not in my best condition today, let’s do it one more time, I’m ready, one last time, I promise.”

Samantha’s face turned white, “Solomon, I want to rest for a bit.”

Darn Mateo, where was the video?

Peyton interrupted and said sarcastically, “A newbie indeed, can’t even suffer a bit, are you a princess or what?”

Darn…

Samantha wanted so much to slap her.

“It’s fine, let’s continue.” Samantha glanced at Solomon and nodded.

Solomon was satisfied, “You are a good actress.”

Samantha couldn’t even force out a smile.

At this very moment, Clara brought the mobile over.

Peyton smiled evilly after Solomon walked away, “Helena, stay away from Ruben, understand? You’ll be in misery if I ever see you with him again! Even Gabriel can’t protect you!”

Samantha smiled and played the video sent by Mateo in front of her.

It was the video where she intentionally poured hot drinks onto her last time.

“What’s the relation between you and Mateo?” Peyton’s face stiffened and tried to snatch the mobile.

Samantha quickly pulled back her hand and smiled, “I’m not sure if Gabriel can protect me. But if this video went viral, your innocent image will be turned into ashes!”

Peyton swept a glance at the surrounding and lowered her voice, “You will die if you send it out!”

“Let me warn you, if you dare to play tricks again, I might really send it out. I’m nothing but an online celebrity, I’m not afraid of the public. Unlike me, you are an award-winning actress, you’ll lose everything.” Samantha smiled harmlessly but with a fierce look in her eyes.

Peyton cared too much about her image, she won’t risk a thing.

“Oh yes, one more thing you should know.” Samantha smiled sarcastically again, “I didn’t seduce your Ruben, he approached me, I don’t even bother fighting with you…”

Don’t bother?

Her tone was full of irony.

Peyton’s weakness was poked and shouted, “Cut the crap! Ruben will not approach a whore like you!”

Samantha threw a cold smile and turned away.

Peyton clenched her teeth and her fists furiously.

She was just giving Samantha a small lesson today but was bitten over by her.

Samantha was lying, Ruben could not have…

Soon, the shooting resumed.

And this time, everything went smooth, the scene was finished in one shot.

Samantha let out a long sigh of relief, Clara wrapped her up with towels.

“Helena, you are feeling alright?” Clara looked at her worriedly.

Samantha bit her lips while drying her hair, she murmured, “Peyton Moore…”

It seemed like Peyton was onto something after being quiet for a while.

They were ready for a second scene shooting after they changed their clothes.

This scene was still Samantha and Peyton, Solomon called them up for a little chat before shooting.

“There is no playing with the angle with this scene. Helena, control your strength when you slap Peyton, don’t go too strong but not too light either.”

Slapping for real?

A sudden chill crept down Peyton’s spine while Samantha smiled, “No worries Solomon, I won’t disappoint you…”

Samantha’s smile was mean and cold, her words were meant for Peyton.

Solomon turned to Peyton, “Peyton, you do understand, don’t you? We will lose the authenticity of this scene if we play with angle.

Despite being unwilling, Peyton could only nod, “I get it, it’s alright.”

Solomon felt both of them were understanding and looked at them complimentary.

The shooting began.

“Elsie, have I wronged you? Trying to give me the disease, are you even human? Samantha walked towards the frightened Peyton.

“Humane? Since we are both from the same family, why is it that you could have everything while I have to live under your shadow? I’m no lesser than you, I want to kill you!”

Samantha was stunned for a moment, raised her hand and slapped Peyton.

She had good control over her strength, she didn’t intend to create trouble with Peyton.

However, Peyton fell onto the ground after that slap.

“Helena, I didn’t deliberately make NG scenes just now, I know you are angry but you don’t have to go this far. The face is everything for an actress.”

Peyton raised her head, and there was blood on her lips, accusing Samantha’s slap as a deliberate act of revenge!

Everyone at the set was stunned.

Even Samantha was puzzled, Peyton indeed was an award-winning actress.

Although the director asked her to hit for real, she didn’t overdo it.

Why was there blood on Peyton’s lips?

Hearing Peyton’s complaint, Solomon walked over with a stiffened face, “Helena, you are too much.”

“Oh my god, why did she hit for real?”

“She didn’t have to slap so hard even though Peyton made mistakes during the previous shot.”

“Sigh, the director didn’t say she could make her bleed!”

An evil glance flashed under Peyton’s eyes, the assistant helped her up while she wiped away the blood on her lips. “If you are angry because of the previous shot, I apologize.”

She took a deep bow once she finished.

Samantha was pushed into a scandalous void at once.
