Inherit Billions

Strict With Him

Henry's crew was filming in a rather harsh environment.

It was a low-budget production with minimal resources, and everything was quite simple.

As Seraphina got out of the car, she saw scattered people around, all working hard. The bright and blinding lights made it difficult to see clearly, while murmurs of complaints and discussions filled the air. "Ms. Cross, watch your step."

Henry reached out to support her. Seraphina smiled faintly, brushing off his arm as she moved forward.

She glanced around the set, but no one recognized her everyone was busy with their tasks, paying no attention to who had arrived.

This made Henry dissatisfied. He coughed twice and tried to draw people's attention. Seraphina shot him a glare before smiling 'gently'.

"Stay low-key. Be careful not to get secretly photographed."

Henry was startled. He immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Seraphina scanned the surroundings before walking up to the director.

He was standing by a few cameras in a serious manner, looking rather tense.

"Hey, who are you?"

Someone beside the director was prompted. The director looked up, momentarily stunned, when he saw Seraphina. The next second, recognition dawned. Anyone active in this industry couldn't possibly not know Seraphina.

She had far more influence and popularity than most celebrities in the industry and held a status that was anything but ordinary.

Yet she gave others no choice; she stood in a position above them, judging their worth.

The director quickly stood up and greeted, "Ms. Cross."

This film was funded by Aurora Entertainment, so they had forcibly cast people into the roles, leaving him with no room to refuse.

Even if those cast members lacked acting skills, they had no choice but to accept it with a smile.

Seraphina smiled as she approached. "Sorry to intrude

The director's expression changed slightly when he saw Henry standing behind her.

"Henry, where have you been? Don't you know you have a scene tonight? Do you realize that there are hundreds of people waiting for you? Henry glanced at Seraphina, feeling a sense of haughty excitement.

"Apologies for tonight. I had something important to attend to..."

Finished

The director's temper flared instantly. Henry hadn't made an A-lister, yet he was already acting like one!

Just as he was about to berate him, Seraphina's clear, calm voice rang out.

"Director, Henry said he's willing to reshoot his scenes tonight, no matter how late it takes."

Everyone was stunned.

When had he ever been this diligent?

The director's anger subsided and he instructed, "Then let's start preparing."

Henry looked confusedly at Seraphina and the director Seraphina smiled at him and said, "It's the perfect chance for me to watch you act. You wouldn't refuse, would you?" Of course not!

Henry, thrilled, went off to the dressing room to change. The wealthy lady wanted to watch him act-he could only win her over with his perfect looks and brilliant performance. Seraphina took a seat beside the director. As they settled in, a wave of realization and fear washed over

him.

He suddenly remembered who Henry resembled. If he and Seraphina appeared together... could it

mean...

Henry soon took his position in front of the camera, his handsome face showing its full advantage.

He was playing a domineering CEO. After hurting the female lead, he tried to get her back to his side but couldn't win her back.

As Seraphina listened to the director explaining the scene, she felt conflicted because she couldn't help but think it reminded her of Orion.

The scene involved Henry begging the female lead for reconciliation. She refused, and in his obsessive desperation, he threatened to jump into the water to win her pity.

Henry awkwardly finished his lines and jumped into the water directly.

The director muttered under his breath and roared, "Not bad, let's do it again!"

The night was chilly, and the water felt even colder. It was getting late.

Henry was visibly annoyed; after all, he wasn't a professional actor and hadn't put much effort into honing

his skills.

The director noticed this. Considering Seraphina was present, he refrained from demanding better results.

Just as he was about to give up and hold back his comment, Seraphina broke the long silence with a calm and composed voice.

"The performance isn't quite right. It's best to do a few more takes. Henry is new to this. so he needs strict

guidance for the benefit of his future acting career."

The director was speechless.

The crew around them was at a loss for words too.

Seraphina's words dispelled their assumptions about their relationship.

With renewed enthusiasm, the director shouted, "Stop wasting time. Let's go again!"

Finished

Henry cast a pleading look at Seraphina, but she remained unmoved, sitting calmly beside the director. She was thoroughly absorbed in inspecting the camera equipment before her. A second take.

A third...
