Chapter 257 Penelope, Absolute Domination!

Penelope rigidly held the script in her hands, the more she read, the more she felt that the upcoming scenes were indescribable.

She had just thought about putting the script aside to discuss with Weston whether they should adjust the scale, when she saw Zackary, Lola, Kemp, and Pennie walk in together.

Zackary and Kemp also held a script in their hands, just like hers.

Zackary didn't know if the corner of his mouth was twitching. The curve of his lips was incredibly stiff, making his handsome, dark face even more chilling and terrifying.

He glanced again at the script in his hand, then slowly lifted his face, his gaze coldly mocking as it fell on Penelope's face. Such deep-seated contempt and disgust, almost enough to crush someone into dust.

Kemp was also looking at the script in his hands. His handsome face, with its slightly soft contours, wore a sharp coldness. His eyes shone with the clear radiance of a cold moon, making it impossible to decipher what he was thinking.

Even though she had already broken up with Zackary and was determined to have nothing to do with him in this life, Penelope still couldn't bring herself to act this way in front of him.

Seeing Weston walk in, Penelope tentatively spoke up, "Weston, I feel like I can't perform this scene. Could you, perhaps, replace me with another actor?"

"Penelope, you promised me you would make a guest appearance in this play! You can't go back on your word!" Weston didn't give Penelope any chance to refuse, "Only you can play this empress!"

"Weston, this role is just a minor one, I feel like any extra could play it!" Penelope spoke up weakly, she really didn't have the courage to act out such a bold scene in front of so many people with Everett.

"What do you mean any extra can act?!" Upon hearing Penelope's words, Weston became incredibly agitated.

"Penelope, did you know what your character, Lady Jianna, the Noble Consort, was supposed to be like in the play?"

Seeing Penelope shake her head gently, Weston continued, "Lady Jianna was the most beautiful woman in Moorempire! Although her screen time was limited, her beauty was an overwhelming presence in the drama!"

"If I were to randomly pick an extra, who among them could possibly live up to the title of the most beautiful woman in Moorempire?! Both Lola and Pennie, who played the first and second female leads, are from Moorempire. Out of all the people I know, only you, Penelope, have the beauty that could completely overshadow them! Therefore, this role is meant for you and you alone!"

Weston was known in the circle for his bluntness, he spoke his mind without any ill intentions. However, his words didn't sit well with Lola and Pennie.

Any woman who was even slightly attractive had quite a bit of confidence in her own appearance.

Lola and Pennie, both considered themselves as the epitome of beauty, unparalleled in the world. Coupled with the constant flattery from their fans, they were unwilling to admit that anyone could be more beautiful than them!

Moreover, Weston had said, Penelope had crushed the two of them into nothing!

Even if Penelope had become a loser, they were so beautiful that it would have been impossible for them to have any connection with so-called losers!

Lola's self-control was relatively strong. Even when dissed by Weston, she was still able to maintain an elegant and composed demeanor.

Pennie, however, couldn't bear it any longer. She desperately wanted to prove that she was more beautiful than Penelope.

She gently clung to Kemp's arm, whimpering, "Kemp, I'm so upset! Weston actually said that I was crushed into nothing by Penelope! Kemp, am I really that ugly?"

She expected Kemp to say, "Penny, you are the most beautiful in my heart."

Kemp's mind had completely lost control, falling entirely onto Penelope. He was constantly furrowing his brows, thinking about the impure scenes she was going to film next. Whatever Pennie had said, he really hadn't heard.

Seeing Pennie constantly shaking his arm, that sweet and lovely little face, looking at him pitifully, as if seeking some kind of recognition.

Kemp didn't want her to keep shaking his arm, he absentmindedly responded, "Hmm."

Huh?!

Pennie's face turned green instantly. She asked him if she was really that ugly, and he actually said yes?!

Where was she, Pennie, ugly!

Mr. Dawson, the senior special assistant, was standing behind Pennie and Kemp, listening to their conversation. He couldn't help but laugh inappropriately for a moment.

Originally, Pennie's complexion was already quite unpleasant. Upon hearing Dawson's laughter, her face turned even more embarrassingly greenish-purple.

She couldn't help but turn her face, glaring at Dawson fiercely.

It seemed as if Dawson didn't notice the anger in Pennie's eyes. He chuckled dryly, speaking somewhat naively.

"Mr. Kemp was truly honest, he just liked to tell the truth!"

The truth?!

Could it be, he also thought that the beautiful Pennie was ugly?!

Pennie was so angry that she didn't even have the energy to glare at anyone.

Weston saw that Penelope still didn't want to make a cameo in the play, so he resorted to throwing a tantrum, "Penelope, I'll say it again, this role is meant for you! If you don't act, I... I will break off our friendship!"

Penelope, "..."

How deep was her relationship with this Weston?

However, during the shooting of various videos for "Throne", Weston really helped her a lot. He said so himself, and since she had already agreed to him before, she really couldn't refuse anymore.

She had no choice but to settle for less. She lifted her face, casting a glance at Kemp and Zackary, who were blocking the doorway like door gods.

"Weston, could you clear the set for the next shoot? I'm afraid I can't let loose with so many people around."

Couldn't let go?!

Zackary's brow twitched, his handsome face darkened as if he was about to devour someone.

After clearing the field, how was she supposed to let go?!

Pounced directly on Everett, shamelessly devoured him completely?!

She had a dream!

He was going to stay here, making it hard for her to let go!

Weston had hoped that Penelope would shoot this scene, but he also didn't dare to offend the two big shots, Zackary and Kemp. As he was considering how to broach the subject, Lola's soft and pleasant voice rang out in the air, "Zackary, let's go outside, shall we not disturb sister's filming?"

She really couldn't bear to see, Zackary's gaze, as if it was fixed on Penelope.

Weston silently nodded in his heart, "Go out, all of you," so he could finally focus on filming.

Zackary, however, had no intention of going out at all. He sneered, hooking the corner of his lips. His handsome face, hailed as a once-in-a-millennium divine beauty, became increasingly cold and cruel, yet also increasingly bewitching and captivating.

"What, she dared to undress, but didn't dare to let people see?!"

Penelope's expression faltered, Zackary always had this knack for making things unbearably awkward.

However, since she had already decided to completely break off with him, she could not let him influence her anymore!

Since he wanted to look, then let him look. After all, she wouldn't lose a piece of flesh!

Penelope recited her lines again, handing the script to a crew member. Then, with a light smile, she turned to Everett and said, "Mr. Murray, I'm ready! If you're ready too, let's get started!"
