“She’s not just good. She was like a succubus!” Catalina cursed.
At that, Reuben mocked, “Don’t worry. She’s not even good enough to get into that market. If she doesn’t have true skills, she’s going to come crawling back.”
Catalina turned around and looked at him. “Are you sure?”
“Of course I am. I dated her for five years. She can’t make a name for herself,” Reuben commented confidently.
That soothed Catalina a little, and she smiled. “Alright, then. I’ll wait for the day she gets kicked back.”
Back in the presidential suite, Sera was saying something similar to Harmony. “Harmony, once we get onto the international stage, we must make a name for ourselves, or you’ll find it hard to make it even back in our home country.”
Harmony nodded. “Sure, I’ll work hard. I’ll do anything.”
Meanwhile, Ezekiel was in his room, still awake. At least ten scripts were handed over to him, and all of the characters needed had suited Harmony. He patiently and earnestly went through the scripts. He wanted to give Harmony a good start, and it couldn’t be something that challenged her too much.
In the end, he picked a sci-fi film that was famous around the world. She would be playing an Asian in the movie. Even though she was a supporting actress, any supporting character was great in a big production like this. Anyone who could get into this production was the cream of the crop. It would make for a great start if Harmony could be shown to the global audience this summer.
Ezekiel put the script down and massaged his forehead. It was 2.30AM, and someone was calling him. Ezekiel picked it up. “Hello?”
“Sir, the master wants you back at the manor. He wishes to speak with you.”
“Now?”
“Yes.”
Ezekiel checked the time. “Sure. I’ll come back right away.” He then went to the airport and texted Harmony after he boarded his flight. ‘Miss Mayo, I need to leave. The script is already decided. Someone from the set will contact you. See you around.
The next morning, Harmony groggily picked her phone up to check the time. She saw that message and sat up with a jolt, waking up completely. Ezekiel left?
Two days later, someone from the set came to talk with Harmony. Harmony knew Ezekiel got her a job, but she didn’t think it was a world- famous big-budget production, and it was a sci- fi movie, too. The franchise was at its sixth entry and the one where the climax would happen.
Harmony was given the script, which was written in both Chinese and English. If she made it, her character would be an instant classic. As for Ezekiel, he never showed up anymore. The set would deal with this production by themselves entirely. The set treated Harmony like a VIP, and they were patient with her.
On the fourth day, Harmony checked out the set and her costume. It was a fluttering Western dress. It looked beautiful and elegant. She then met both directors and the three assistant directors, and then she met the male and female leads for the movie. They happily greeted her.
Harmony had the honor of watching their masterful performance. Then, the editor and person in charge of her character talked to her about the origins of the character and what she had to show in the movie.
“Miss Mayo, have you learned any martial arts back in your home country?”
Harmony mused and nodded. “A little.”
“Good. We’ll be using that.”
A week went by. Harmony was immersed in work, but she realized she hadn’t seen Ezekiel after his message. It was like he disappeared after giving her a mission. But since the movie had to be aired during the summer holidays, and Harmony’s character’s scenes would only be shot later in the production, her schedule was tight. Ten days later, Sera and Harmony moved into the set and stayed there.
