The Billionaire’s Maid Bride

Chapter 428
This morning, Allison had a face-off scene shoot with Sadie at Northern Park.
The assistant director, Conrad, was in charge of this shoot. Though Conrad and Mr. Simonds were as different as chalk and
cheese and didn’t get along, they were both go-to guys for director Cathy.
The character Allison played in the drama, Olivia, was Sadie’s good friend, but her presence in the storyline was quite low-key.
Allison had three more days left on her shooting schedule. Even though she didn’t have many scenes, she showed up on set
every day like clockwork. She was always prepared, even for the smallest scenes and lines. She’d never caused a delay in
shooting due to her own mistakes. She could even recite her co-star’s lines. Except for NGS caused by external factors like
camera angles, she generally
nailed it in one take.
Sadie didn’t show up late today. At 9 a.m. sharp, her trailer pulled up at the entrance of Northern Park.
The park was cordoned off for the shoot. Despite Northern Park being à hotspot for tourists who were snapping pictures and
filming videos, they didn’t mind the disturbance. Sadie and Allison weren’t big names, but the drama was Cathy’s work, and that
was enough to catch the audience’s attention.
Sadie’s popularity had been on the rise since she landed Cathy’s teen movie lead role. The day they announced her role, her
social media followers shot up by half a million. She posted selfies and videos every week, and now her social media followers
had crossed a million. Everyone was anticipating the release of the film, hoping for a box office hit.
As soon as Sadie stepped out of the trailer, she shielded her forehead with her hand. “It’s so sunny, Emma. Can’t you hold the
umbrella’ properly?”
Emma immediately adjusted the umbrella.
As Sadie entered the park, everyone was ready to begin the day’s work. Emma handed her the script, with her lines highlighted
in light pink. Sadie, who had had a late night, yawned and just glanced over the lines.
Seeing Sadie, Conrad said, “Wow, you’re not late for once. That’s a rare sight.”

Sadie, who had just graduated from school, was used to bantering with men. “Mr. Conrad, you make it sound like I’m late every
day.” She was pretty and flirty, which made her popular with guys. Though Sadie was occasionally late, it hadn’t raised any
eyebrows, thanks to the backing of powerful investors. Conrad, as an assistant director, chose to turn a blind eye to her
tardiness.
– Moreover, Sadie was extremely beautiful, and men had an extra soft spot for pretty girls.
“Alright, get to learning your lines. We start in fifteen minutes,” Conrad said, then turned to look at Allison, chatting with the crew
without a script in her hand, which made him frown. He didn’t know much about Allison, just that she had few scenes and was
mostly directed by Mr. Simonds.
Conrad thought Allison seemed a bit aloof. She was pretty, with perfect makeup, but too quiet. In showbiz, especially in this
commercialized era, stars like her found it hard to gain popularity.
Though she was beautiful, she was just another actress packaged by her company. The fact that she showed up for a shoot
without a script left a bad impression on Conrad.
“Scene 89, shot 7, action–”
Sadie held Allison’s hand tightly, her eyes welling up as if she felt wronged. “Olivia, are you taking Yara’s side now?”
Allison replied, “Of course not, Olivia, I just think you and Yara should have a heart-to-heart. Things might not be as you suspect.
Don’t get worked up, and text Yara to ask what’s going on. Her relationship with Leo might not be what you think.”
