Chapter 443
Pearl’s eyes narrowed as she looked at Clem’s swollen foot. “Did they do this to you?”
“Uh…” Esther was about to say something from behind but was silenced by Clem’s stern look. He quickly put on a smile. “Nah. I’m fine, really…”
Pearl glanced at Esther, who was behind her. “Tell me about it.”
“Well, Mister Clem… He sprained his foot when he came back.”
Clem blushed. “Alright, let’s not dig into my private affairs anymore.”
Pearl couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Stop laughing. I know it’s funny,” Clem said, laughing at himself. After all, he didn’t sustain any injuries in the fight, but he sprained his foot on the way back, which was quite amusing.
As they continued talking, everyone in the room burst into laughter. The atmosphere lightened, and Pearl no longer pressed
the issue with Clem.
After chatting with Clem, Pearl and Richard returned to the hotel, while Esther went back to the set with Hanzel.
Seeing that Pearl seemed distracted, Richard asked, “What’s wrong?”
“It’s likely Jenny’s doing. I won’t go easy on her,” Pearl said with a cold tone and a steely gaze in her eyes.
“What are you going to do then?”
Pearl rubbed her chin and replied, “I want to teach her a lesson.”
Richard raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean?”
“You’ll find out when the time comes.” Pearl chuckled with a plan in mind.
The next morning, a social media post announced that ‘The Melody of the West’ would be postponed and wouldn’t be
released with ‘When I Met You.’
‘When I Met You’ was the campus romance drama starring Esther and Hanzel.
Many fans started complaining about this news, saying they had waited so long and couldn’t believe it wouldn’t air as scheduled. However, some of them began speculating about the reasons behind this delay.
At noon, Jenny disclosed that she had developed acne on her face and provided a medical certificate from the hospital, indicating it would take at least two weeks to clear up. As a result, her work schedule would be disrupted, leading to a delay in the shooting.
Then someone said, “Since she can’t film, why not replace her?”
This question instantly ignited everyone’s thoughts.
A single pebble could stir a thousand ripples. Everyone began debating fiercely.
“I think Jenny’s acting skills are really subpar. Look at the few dramas she’s been in, they’re really cringeworthy. They’re not worth watching!”
“Jenny’s appearance isn’t that distinctive either. Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t get her appeal at all.”
“Jenny doesn’t suit historical dramas, right? Have you seen the stills? She looks really ugly, my goodness. They should replace her. Otherwise, it’s bound to flop!”
Jenny, who was in the hospital treating her acne, had hoped to receive some care and sympathy from netizens. But reading these comments, she felt like she was about to explode!
