SWNOVELS Chapter 58
Chapter 58 Please Show Jay Some Respect
"Hey, Lyn! Aren't you going to introduce me to the lady beside you?" Jay asked casually as he approached Lyndsey and Maria.
Within the core circle of a crew, the actors who played the hero and heroine were irreplaceable.Everyone liked to spend time with
them.For Jay, it was already his second time doing a project with Lyndsey.
Because of this, they had developed a tacit understanding and a close relationship.
At the same time, Jay had noticed Maria since she appeared on the crew.
Although he guessed that this idle and beautiful script supervisor might have only gotten her position through some influential
backers, he didn't actually mind it.
After all, in the entertainment circle, this kind of thing would usually happen.It had almost become a norm and he had already
gotten used to it.
Before Lyndsey could say anything, Maria took the initiative to introduce herself.
"My name is Maria Jenkins.I'm here as a script supervisor."
Hearing her straightforward and casual response, Jay was a little surprised.Her tone sounded a little too indifferent and
unrestrained.
Just as he expected from the beginning, it seemed that Maria was not an ordinary person.Jay then grinned and introduced
himself seriously in the same way Maria just did, "My name is Jay Reed.I'm here to play the part of the hero in this show."
Maria already knew that, so she just nodded without much care.However, Jay's assistant couldn't believe what he had
witnessed.
In the back of his mind, he couldn't fathom how this girl could be so calm.Not just in front of any celebrity, but Jay Reed.Was Jay
not up to her standards? That was impossible.Or maybe she was simply not interested in men? In a recent survey conducted by
a famous entertainment magazine, Jay was voted as the male artist that girls wanted to marry the most.
Delivery stations across the country would always get filled with various packages addressed to him from senders claiming to be
his beloved wife.
Maria should have at least felt a little excited when she met Jay.
This was the first time that Jay's assistant encountered someone who didn't fawn over his boss, so he found it strange and
unbelievable.
"Oh, hey.You got so many drinks.Can I have one?"
Without waiting for Lyndsey's approval, Jay casually reached for a bottle inside the bag.He had already worked with her on two
TV shows, and they had gotten along, so taking one drink shouldn't be a problem.
However, he didn't expect what had happen next.
Slap! Lyndsey suddenly smacked his hand off the bag and glared at him.
"Hey! Let M— I mean, let Maria choose first."
At that moment, Lyndsey almost forgot that Maria had told her not to call her by her pseudonym and just address her as Maria
instead.
Even so, it had already become a habit.
There could even be a part of her that didn't actually want to change it at all.She wanted to call her Mia and let everyone know
that this stunning young lady was the very idol she adored.But sadly, Maria seemed to want to keep her identity a secret.
Of course, Jay had no choice but to take his hand back.He had to gently rub his hand to ease off the pain from getting slapped
by Lyndsey.It seemed that she used a lot of strength when she hit him just now.
Upon seeing this, the assistant felt so anxious that he almost cursed Lyndsey.He couldn't believe how she had the guts to hurt
his boss for a measly bottled drink.
Despite his displeasure, he tried to control himself by reminding himself that Lyndsey had just recently won Best Actress and was
playing the lead role in this play.
She wasn't someone he could afford to offend.
However, that wasn't going to stop him from blaming her in his heart.
In his mind, Lyndsey could have just told him off nicely.
Was this script supervisor more important than the recent Best Actor awardee? The assistant glared at Maria with resentment,
but she was busy inspecting the drinks that she didn't notice at all.
"Maria, look! This one's a passion fruit-flavored soda.It actually has alcohol in it, but it's not strong, and it's great to drink one
before a nap.This yogurt tastes good too! It's good for digestion.I drink it every day! Would you like to try this? Or...how about this
fruit vinegar? It's good for your skin.Plus! It's got low sugar content."
After introducing every bottled beverage she picked out for Maria in detail, Lyndsey realized in the end that she wanted to give
her all three drinks.
At this point, she turned to Jay and blurted, "The store's only a few blocks away.Just go buy a drink yourself."
Clearly, Jay was at a loss that she would treat him that way.He was so stunned that he could only stare at Lyndsey with wide
eyes.
Even his assistant was taken aback.He couldn't believe that she prioritized a mere script supervisor over her co-lead.
Apparently, Maria was also rendered speechless by what Lyndsey said and turned to her in shock.However, the assistant
couldn't let it go.It was just one drink.
Lyndsey had already slapped Jay's hand earlier.
Now, she refused him again and even asked him to go to the store himself.
Couldn't she show some respect to Jay? He was her equal, a Best Actor award.The assistant clenched his fists.
Indeed, the store was a couple of blocks away.
Lyndsey had more than enough drinks that she could share, yet she selfishly told him to walk in makeup and heavy costumes
and buy his own drink.
Finally, Jay's assistant could not take it anymore.In his heart, he was already exploding in anger.This girl was just too much.
How dare she bully such a sweet guy? If Jay wouldn't say anything, he would do it himself.He was so determined to make
Lyndsey know her place.
