Chapter 1070
They started filming at the residence of Alvin, where Lily sat in her seat with a cup of tea in hand. Her
movements all matched her character well, including pride and confidence.
Xyla suddenly saw someone and was surprised. The director noticed it and yelled, “Cut”, then reminded
her, “Xyla, we’re filming now. Please, take note of your expressions.”
“Oh, I’m sorry.” Xyla smiled and looked at the man standing next to the director with his arms crossed.
Why was he there?
Yorrick raised his eyebrows.
Maybe because she was in a bad spot or because there were more people on set, she had a few bad
takes when they continued.
The director was tired. “Xyla, you’re not doing well today. Is something wrong?
Think about something that makes you sad, think of your family being executed, and bring in your
emotions . If you can’t do it, I’ll get you some eye drops.”
Xyla rubbed her forehead. Her assistant walked next to her. “Xy, don’t be affected by that *ssh*le. A lot of
people are waiting for you.”
Yorrick chuckled. “Ms. Hathaway is heartbroken and is in a bad spot. Just give her some time.”
Heartbroken?
The people there were curious. Wasn’t Nathan chasing her? How was she heartbroken?
Xyla laughed and said to the director, “Let’s go again.
The director started filming.
Xyla took a deep breath, composed herself, and took a seat. The servant walked in and knelt in front of
her, crying. “Your
Highness, the LeBlancs… The LeBlancs are being executed!”
The camera zoomed in on Lily’s facial expression.
Lily’s expression froze, and her hand holding the teacup didn’t move either.
The director sat in front of the camera and stared at Xyla’s expression. He thought she was still not ready
but then noticed that she was tearing up.
He continued filming.
“Get out,” Lily said to the servant in a low tone.
The actress who was acting as the servant paused, a little confused. That wasn’t part of the script.
Xyla suddenly stood up and spilled the tea, then raised her finger and pointed outward and yelled
emotionally, “I said get out!”
Her eyes filled with tears, but they didn’t fall. When Lily found out that her family was getting executed,
she was devastated, so she broke the teacup on the spot.
However, Lily was a proud woman. Even though she was sad, she couldn’t show it, so she sent the
servant away. She didn’t want anyone to see her when she was sad and distraught.
Luckily, the actress who acted as the servant was quick-witted and walked out. When the servant was
stunned, not only did it not affect the scene, but it also made it more natural.
Once the servant walked out, Lily slumped down on her chair, and her tears started rolling down. It only
lasted a moment before she started laughing.
The assistant director was surprised and whispered, “That’s not part of the script.”
The director shushed him. Lily that Xyla was portraying went from being in control to losing her control,
and she completely let herself go when no one was around. She went from tears to laughter in two
minutes, doing a splendid job portraying a proud woman from a wealthy family.
The assistant director didn’t understand.” But why was she laughing in the end? It didn’t look right.”
The director rubbed his chin but didn’t answer. The man next to him said, “When people are extremely
sad, they will laugh to cover the sadness. This young actress was able to grasp that with her own
knowledge. She must have done a lot of homework about controlling her emotions.”
