Forgive Us, My Dear Sister

Chapter 238

Chapter 238 Astonished

Simone cried for an unknown time before getting up to freshen up. She walked into the living room and

casually picked up a doll from the cabinet. Opening the back of the doll, she took out an ancient key

from inside.

Her master had given her this key before he passed away. He had said that one day, she would need NôvelDrama.Org © content.

it. Presumably, besides the seal, what the duo mentioned earlier was that this key was needed to

access what her master had left behind.

The geomancy association had a dedicated storage facility for mystical tools, antiques, and other items

for geomancy masters or wealthy elites. Each storage cabinet required a specific method to open.

Anyone who tried to open it forcefully or cleverly would face a backlash from the ancient formation

outside the storage facility.

Therefore, it was considered the safest storage place in the country. Of course, the storage fee was

also astonishing.

Simone pondered for a moment. She decided to wait until the next episode of the variety show to take

out the items and have a look.

The headquarters of the geomancy association was located in Cubilis. She had a feeling that she was

under supervision now. There was no need to go there to retrieve the items, and she was not short on

time either.

She caressed the ancient key and stuffed it into the doll along with the seal. She also attached. a

talisman to conceal the aura inside the doll. Carrying these two things with her at all times. was

inconvenient, and keeping them in a safe at home or a drawer was even less secure. By placing them

in the doll, she could openly display it as a decoration on the cabinet in the living room, and it would not

attract attention or reveal that hidden things were inside.

Simone calmed her emotions and then left for the set of the Republican Era drama she was filming.

She played the third female lead, while Ethan played the second male lead.

The third female lead had fewer scenes and could be filmed in half a month. This drama had a large

investment from the production company.

After receiving her payment from the variety show, she also invested millions. When she arrived at the

set, filming had not started. The director was talking to Zac, and she was surprised. Why is he here?

At that moment, both the director and Zac noticed her entering. Zac raised his hand, smiled, and waved

at her. “Simone!”

She walked over. “What are you doing here?”

He smiled and said, “I’m here to play the third male lead.”

The director said, “The previous third male lead dropped out, and I’ve been looking for an actor who fits

the image and talisman. I didn’t expect Mr. Turner’s agent to contact me proactively, saying he wanted

to play this role.” He half-jokingly added, “I had to catch him. quickly, didn’t I?”

Zac had a charismatic and somewhat rebellious image, exuding a handsome and slightly. rogue charm,

like a nonchalant nobleman from the Republican era. He was a top-tier young idol, and if he joined the

project, it would attract much attention. His acting skills were also impressive, and coupled with his

proactive approach, there was no reason for him to refuse.

Simone and her friends were major investors, which was why he explained in such detail. She smiled

and said, “I see.” She asked him, “Why did you decide to act in this drama?”

He did not hide anything and replied, “I heard you were cast as the third female lead in this drama, so I

was curious and wanted to look at the script. I quite liked the third male lead role, so I volunteered.”

He had come for Simone specifically; otherwise, his agent had a bunch of other offers for male leads

that he had turned down. The thought of being able to act alongside her and see her frequently made

him feel delighted.

She nodded with a smile and said, “The script is indeed great, and your image matches well with the

male lead.”

Zac extended his hand and said, “Please take care of me in the future.”

Simone shook his hand and replied, “Sure, let’s take care of each other!”

Alex had also figured out by now that Zac had come for Simone.

No wonder he, a big star, suddenly decided to act as the third male lead. He purposely gave them

space and said, “You two chat. I’ll make arrangements, and we can start filming soon.

The opening ceremony had already taken place, and Simone had helped with the scheduling. The

drama had been filming for a while now, mainly focusing on the scenes between the female and male

lead.

After Alex left, Zac sent a message on his phone. Then, he started discussing the script with Simone

and even sought advice on some acting techniques.

After about ten minutes, his assistant hurriedly came in and handed him a bag. Zac thanked the

assistant, took a box of frozen eye masks from the bag, and handed it to Simone. ‘I noticed that your

eyes are a bit swollen, so I had my assistant buy a box of eye masks to reduce the swelling for you.”

She looked at the box he handed her, feeling a bit stunned. She did not expect this man to be so

thoughtful and considerate. She smiled and accepted it, saying, “Thank you, I do need this. I cried quite

a bit earlier, and now my eyes feel kind of swollen.”

She could not help but feel good being cared for like this. After all, even her ex-boyfriend, Leon, had

never been this considerate toward her.

Zac smiled. “No need to be polite with me.” Then, he asked cautiously, “Did something happen to you?

Is there anything I can help with?”

In his eyes, Simone was a strong girl. If her eyes were swollen from crying, something must have

happened. He was worried about her and even felt a little sorry for her.

She gave him a reassuring look. “I’m fine. I met someone today who was close with my master and

couldn’t help but miss him, so I cried.”

When it came to Zac, she trusted him. He breathed a sigh of relief. “That’s good.”

Simone went to the other room to apply an eye mask. After a while, the swelling in her eyes had

subsided. Then, the stylist took her to change clothes and put on makeup.

Today, she would shoot her scenes. When she came out, everyone present was stunned, their eyes

filled with amazement. At that moment, she wore a red dress, perfectly highlighting her exquisite figure.

Her hairstyle was the popular finger wave technique from the Republican. Era.

With her flaming red lips, she looked bold and glamorous, exuding a captivating aura that overwhelmed

others. She walked over in high heels, with buildings from the Republican Era on both sides and extras

dressed in Republican costumes passing by.

Just by looking at her, she appeared to be a stunning beauty reminiscent of the Republican Era.

Alex’s eyes were filled with surprise.

Judging from Simone’s vibrant and flamboyant appearance, he thought she would be perfect for this

role. Still, he did not anticipate that by simply changing her makeup and adjusting her demeanor, he

could see the true essence of the female lead in the drama.

He smiled and sighed. “I can already predict that Simone will astonish countless people after this

drama airs.”

Zac also witnessed her breathtaking beauty for the first time. “Of course, I’m amazed as well.” Indeed,

Simone looked beautiful in any attire, and each style exuded its charm and elegance.

The filming of the plot officially commented.

Her acting skills were incredibly polished, not requiring any guidance from the director, and she

immediately immersed herself in the character. Her first scene took place in a nightclub, where she

portrayed the role of a singer.

As soon as she appeared, every smile and frown exuded a captivating allure. Standing on the stage,

she began singing the songs from the script. Her voice was melodious and graceful, charming

everyone present and transporting them to the Republican Era.

At that moment, Zac portrayed the role of a wealthy young man who frequented the nightclub, and he

fell in love with the girl at first sight. Subsequently, the two of them embarked on a complex

relationship.

At that moment, he was enthralled by Simone, more infatuated than ever before. After finishing the

song, it was time for their dramatic scene.

He was utterly immersed in the scene with her, only snapping out of it when the director shouted, “Cut.”

Alex was not only amazed by Simone’s appearance and demeanor but also by her acting skills. He

believed that this play, solely due to her character, would attract a large audience, which was fantastic!

When he decided to release the stills, he planned to include several close-up shots of her.

In the following days, Simone reported to the set. At the same time, she keenly noticed that someone

was secretly observing her every day. Sure enough, her previous intuition was

correct.
