Rise of the Billionaire actress

The atmosphere was tense as the barking of a man filled the air.

” Why did you go near my things?! Did I not warn you to stay away from this room?!”

The little voice of a scared woman followed. ” I’m s-so sorry, I just wanted to h-help wash t-them.”

” Wash?! For what? You suddenly want to play the role of the maid, right? So be it! You’ll be assigned some domestic duties around the house. After all, you need to earn your keep for living here.” The man said in a cynical tone.

” N-no that’s n-not it. I’m your wife, Hughes. It’s my duty to c-care for your needs.”

In response to that, a huge breathy laughter ensued. ” W-wife? ” He laughed again, this time around, much longer. ” Don’t joke around, woman. You lost that right the moment you choose to frolic with my brother.” He said Icily. ” If you want to be a wife, you can head over to him like you’ve always done. Leave my stuff alone!” He bellowed, grabbed the shirt in her hand and stormed out of the room.

The woman, visibly hurt, headed to the king sized bed in the middle of the room in deep thought.

” You can take it, it’ll be fine. It’ll be fine.” She muttered to herself in consolation, focusing on her five year old son with a determination to make it work.

” CUT! ”

The director yelled and the first scene was finalized. It took a second before people began breathing again.

” Phew, that was intense! ” A videographer said the minds of everyone which resulted in affirmative nods from almost everyone in the room.

” That was gold. I have a good feeling about this. Good job guys! Especially Ms Deloise and Aaron. We are wrapped for today so you can take the remnants of the day off. You deserve it.” The film director said with a smile, obviously happy with the results of the first scene.

Deloise and Aaron were all smiles. Perfunctory smiles. People threw comments, complimenting just how real the scene felt and their acting prowess which they could only appreciate.

Deloise was on cloud nine. She couldn’t believe she actually did that! Her first shooting as an actress. With the many compliments being thrown at her, she felt a surge of confidence rise from within her.

She could do it after all. That fact washed away the previous insecurities and disaster stories her mind conjured to her torment.

Now, she felt free. The liberal feeling she got from actually nailing the first scene in one-take as opposed to her usual self and thoughts caused an ecstatic reaction from within.

One that couldn’t be dulled by anyone – not even Aaron.

Speaking of Aaron. He was walking a few meters ahead of her while they made their way to the makeup area to change.

She wondered just how bad of an idea it was to reach out to him again. They were going to be working closely throughout the job duration and as much as she envied how relaxed, comfortable and dope he seemed while they worked, she figured it wouldn’t be too terrible to reach out to him with an olive branch.

She’d love to have a good working relationship with him, so as to allow them work effectively. Knowing how dedicated he seemed to his work, she figured he wouldn’t mind being civil with her. At least for the duration of the project.

With that thought, she decided to act when they were close to the dressing area.

” Hey! That was intense, huh? ” She said with a soft smile which was reciprocated by a look of disdain. Notwithstanding, she continued. ” Listen, I know we didn’t quite get off on a good start but things are a lot different now. Like it or not, we are in this project together and we need to be somewhat civil in order to work perfectly.”

Aaron scoffed. ” I am doing just fine on my own, thanks.”

“Don’t you get it? It’s not about whether you”

“What’s it about? You? If you are so needy then maybe take some acting courses by the side or better still, forfeit the gig. There are thousands of people who are more than ready to take your spot.”

Deloise couldn’t help but feel aggravated. ” What is your problem? Would it kill you to be friends with me? To be nice for once?! Hell, I’m giving an olive branch here and you couldn’t just reel in your arrogance for a moment and think without your dick?”NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

There was a moment of intense silence between the two who had somehow gotten even closer to the other. With eyes boiling rage, they glared at each other. They took deep and intense breaths while at it and within a twinkle of an eye, they were kissing.

Aaron captured her lips in a possessive kiss, not knowing what the hell came over him, while Deloise could only struggle to catch her breath. The kiss felt punishing, every shade of hot and sensual.

Pressed against each other, the duo stumbled into Deloise’ pod, tongue deep in each other’s throats as Aaron dominated the kiss with hands groping her body.

After what felt like forever, Aaron jolted away from Deloise as one burned by a scalding hot Iron. Deloise was a confused mess and before she could conjure something reasonable, Aaron lashed out.

” I don’t need friendship. Stay the fuck away from me and do your job properly!”

With that, he stumbled out of the pod, wondering what the hell just happened and leaving behind a breathlessly stunned Deloise.

After two seconds of immobility, Deloise stumbled out of the pod and surprisingly, found Aaron standing outside, backing her. She immediately grabbed his palm, which she noticed felt a bit too full. Bandaged?

Not letting that deter her, she pulled him into the pod and in contrast to the multiple strings of word choices she’d anticipated, her voice spoke in a small tone.

” What happened?” She asked, her eyes trained on his palm which was engulfed in a white bandage. He was hurt.

Aaron’s walls grew higher and with a stoic countenance, he laughed. He laughed so mockingly that Deloise felt somewhat uncomfortable. Stupid even.

” What? One meaningless kiss and you think you are important?” His tone turned icy. ” Don’t you ever grab me or ask stupid questions ever again. Like I said, mind your fucking business!” He yelled in her face and smirked when he noticed her jumpy reaction.

He walked out the second time, leaving Deloise feeling more stupid than the first. Her eyes watered but she held strong, determined not to shed a tear for him.

Meanwhile, Aaron headed straight to campus needing to be alone. His conscience clawed at him and everytime he remembered how he destroyed her with his words, he grew resentment for himself.

He shouldn’t have kissed her. That was a terrible mistake. He didn’t understand why he also deemed it necessary to rip her into shreds afterwards. After a while of self judgment, Aaron decided he was going to take responsibility and man up.

She deserved an apology.
