Chapter 1071

Many young actors had problems expressing their emotions in the movie, which led to funny scenes
where their facial features ran out of place. This was because, in their perception, sadness was crying,
and happiness was laughing.

As for Xyla, she had so much control over her tears that she could let or not let them fall out of her eyes,
depending on the situation. She did not need to scream or roar hysterically to express her sadness,
which was the most natural way to perform.

The director agreed with the opinion of a seasoned actor.

After the shooting was done, Xyla returned to her dressing room to remove her

makeup. She could see that Yorrick was lying against the door with a smile on his face from the mirror.
“Your performance is truly phenomenal, Ms. Mayweather.”

Xyla put down the makeup remover and took lipstick out of her purse. “You didn’t do it on purpose, did
you?

She put on the lipstick so that she wouldn’t look too pale after removing her makeup. She pressed her
lips in front of the mirror and said, “I thought you said you didn’t know me in the morning? So what are
you doing here now?”

Yorrick chuckled and walked into the dressing room. He leaned toward the dresser and took a look at his
watch. “Are you done with your shooting today? Do I have the honor of inviting you for a meal?”

Xyla turned her head around to look at him.

Yorrick continued to smile at her.



When Xyla and Yorrick came out of the dressing room together, some extras were stunned at the back of
the stage. They all talked to each other and whispered, “Isn’t he the investor of this movie? Did he invest
because of Xyla?”

“But I heard that Nathan is pursuing Xyla, so why is Xyla with him right now?”

“Do you know who Xyla is? Her father is the director of Royal Crown Entertainment Co. Even if she isn’t
an A -list celebrity anymore, her resources are comparable to that of an A-list celebrity. Even though
Nathan has a bigger influence than Xyla, he doesn’t have a big background.”





A female extra looked at them. “In my opinion, Nathan and Xyla don’t make a good couple. Xyla has
been giving me the impression that she isn’t an easy-going person. If Nathan marries her, she will be too
much for him, and their marriage won’t last long.”

The rest of the people felt the girl was right. Xyla indeed looked like a demanding person.

Perhaps it was because she was a model. She stood at about 5’6″, so she looked much more
domineering compared to other female actors who only stood at about 5’2″ on average.

On the other side, Nathan’s height was about 5’8″. Although he was considered tall, their vibe did not
match each other.

However, things were different when Xyla was walking beside the new investor. All of them felt that they
might make a good couple.

In a western restaurant…

Xyla sat in her chair with her arms crossed in front of her chest. She leaned against the back of the chair





and looked at the man, who rested his chin on his intertwined hand.

“So what do you want? I’m sure you’re not going to have a meal with me, right, my little brother?” Yorrick
shifted into another position and placed his hand on his forehead. He smiled and said, “Little brother?
Are you sure I’m younger than you, Ms. Mayweather?” Xyla chuckled and picked up the cup on the table.
“I don’t like beating around the bush. If you don’t have anything else to say, I’m leaving.”

“Let’s make a deal. Three months,” Yorrick said as he clipped the glass of wine between his fingers and
swirled it.

Xyla was stunned. She frowned. “A deal?” “You heard me right.” Yorrick lifted his head to look at her. “I
can only stay in Zlokovia for three months, so we’ll go our separate ways three months later. I will give
you whatever you want within these three months.

It was only now that the scale fell in Xyla’s eyes. She chuckled and asked, “You’re not looking for a
contracted girlfriend, are you?”

Yorrick lifted his eyebrows and replied,” Well, you can put it that way.”

She harrumphed and looked at the cup of water in front of her. “You want to use me as a shield to stop
some unwanted people like Jodie from approaching you, right?”
