Chapter 202 The Most Beloved One
Chapter 202 The Most Beloved One
From the perspective of the two in the fight scene, Ronnie was the one being terribly battered by Leo.
However, it was no more than a routine of filming in the eyes of Robert, Michelle and Lydia.
But it was presented in such a bloody way that it looked so real.
As time went by, Zack started to notice something weird. He saw Ronnie’s bloody face filled with horror
and anger. Obviously, they were not filming, but actually fighting violently.
“Hey, stop! Stop! He is bleeding!” Zack hurried to the front of the camera while shouting.
Not until then did Robert ask for a stop. Then the crew all walked over and only found that Ronnie’s
swollen face was beaten black and blue. He looked miserable and totally disfigured.
He kept flinching back while staring at Leo with horror in his eyes. He hid himself behind Zack as if he
got a straw to clutch at.
Leo came to Zack’s front with a smile, “Please tell Neil I really appreciate Mr. Ronnie’s sacrifice for the
filming. He deserves our greatest respect.”
Looking at Ronnie, who seemed to be about to snuff it, Zack shouted with great panic, “You have just
committed assault and battery against him! I gotta call the police!”
“Assault and battery?” Leo replied with a wry smile. He looked at him and counter questioned, “We
were just filming. And I still remembered I had asked for his opinion about having a stand-in. But he
refused. Now you accuse me of battery just because he got badly hurt?”
Speechless, Zack glared at him, feeling panic.
“You still have time to send him to the hospital before he is really dead.” Leo squinted to say.
Hearing that, Zack felt like being struck hard into his heart. His soul seemed to fall into violent tremor
under Leo’s gaze. He hurried to support Ronnie out of the filming location, having no encourage to stay
even for one more second.
When both of them left, the crew fell into long silence. They all stared at Leo with great disbelief. Even
Michelle looked at him in a way that he seemed to be a stranger to her. Just silence of all still lasted.
Lydia was the only one who showed no surprise about that. During the battery just now, Lydia had been
playing with Emilia. So the little girl didn’t see the bloody scene a moment ago.
Leo walked to Robert’s front, “How is the filming just now?”
Robert started to check all the clips they had filmed. Then he chose the best one. Ruddy-looking, he
couldn’t help praising, “Perfect. Every single punch straightly hit onto the flesh. I bet it would definitely
fail this part if we did it with a stand-in.”
His appreciation rooted from the bottom of his heart. A better version would always be compromised if
it was a stand-in shown in front of the camera. However, commonly speaking, most actors would flinch Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
when facing a real fight. After all, no one dared to risk his own life in the filming industry except for
Jackie Chan.
“Now it’s time for the main part of the ad.” Robert glanced at Leo to speak, looking cautious.
Of course, he clearly noticed that Leo required Ronnie to play opposite him out of a sense of revenge
instead of his generosity.
Ronnie’s family had been known as the BIG FOUR in the Emerdale city. And Robert was quite aware
of that. However, the young man standing right in front of him showed no fear to beat Ronnie up.
Obviously, his family was not match for him.
Leo nodded and reached out his hand, “It’s my honor to work with you.”
“The honor is mine!” this time, Robert gave a handshake with both hands, looking excited.
After the formality, they started to film.
The ad consisted of two parts, the first of which was played by Michelle as the leading female role.
While it was Lydia who played as the other leading role in part two. The story traveled from the ancient
time to the modern era.
There would be continuous shot cuts during filming. Only those sophisticated cameramen could do this
job well.
“Both the hero and heroine need to approach each other closer and closer. Then there will be close-
ups for each of your face. The heroine has to show her eyes filled with surprise and gloom. That’s gotta
be a real test for the actress. After that, both of you need to stare at each other affectionately.”
Robert shouted loud. Even veins could be seen on his neck.
Then there came soft music. Leo, dressing in costume, slowly approached Michelle.
As a talented student of Music Maestro, she soon fit in the character emotionally as soon as the music
started.
When she raised up her head to look at Leo, a trace of surprise flashed across her eyes. But then it
was replaced by strong sense of gloom. She looked exactly like a lady bearing great isolation and
loneliness.
“Perfect!”
Robert clapped and laughed loud, “Part one finished! Now get straight into part two for the modern
time.”
Then Lydia showed up in an office lady suit, which highly featured her strong aura. Undoubtedly, she
was like playing the role of her own.
Standing in front of Lydia, Leo grabbed her shoulders with both hands while staring at her
affectionately.
“Cut!” exclaimed Robert.
Then he walked over to Leo, “Leo, I need you to stare at her face, but into her neckline.”
Hearing that, Lydia hurried to tighten her blouse. Then she cast a cold and weird glimpse at Leo.
Sweat oozed from his forehead out of awkwardness. Leo wiped it off, “Okay, I will be aware of that.”
“Cut!” Robert asked for stop again.
“Miss, what’s your blushed face for? Come on, you have been married for years! Show us your mature
version!”
“Hey, but…” Lydia frowned and was about to explain. But Robert had walked away to prepare another
action.
“Cut! Leo, what are you smiling for?”
“I wasn’t smiling. It’s my daughter.”
Robert turned around and saw Emilia giggling at Leo. So he cast a serious glimpse at her, “Stop
giggling! Save your energy for crying when playing your part later.”
Hearing that, Emilia ceased her giggle and kept her mouth shut.
As it was the first time of filming for both Leo and Lydia. They weren’t expressive enough when facing
cameras. Robert still found it flawed after checking the clips they had filmed for a few times.
So he sighed, “Miss Henderson and Mr. Cohen, I suggest both of you need some time to communicate
with each other. It might be better for your acting.”
So both of them took a seat aside, looking awkward.
At this moment, Michelle sat beside Leo with a smile, “Now you see how hard to be a nice actor, huh?”
Leo nodded, “Every job needs specific talents.”
“I got a tip for you to do a better job.”
Michelle blinked her eyes and smiled, “When doing love scene, just close your eyes and picture your
most beloved one inside your brain. That’s it.”
“My most beloved one?”
Confused, then Leo looked at Lydia instinctively.
Lydia hurried to look away. But she had clearly kept what he said in mind.
The break time soon came to an end. Soft music sounded again. Both Leo and Lydia looked into each
other’s eyes once again. Then they closed their eyes.
However, as time went by, Leo failed to picture anyone inside his brain.
‘My beloved one? Who?’ he murmured to himself.
But at this moment, a pair of pure but cold eyes suddenly appeared in his mind, which stunned him
greatly.
“It’s her…”
Murmuring, Leo looked a bit distracted.
