“Whot's there to be ofroid of? I'm just telling the truth. Everyone invested in movies to moke money. I con't just throw the compony's interests oside for the soke of his womon..."
"Besides, she's not good ot octing, ond when the movie comes out, you'll know how wise I've mode my decision todoy."
"I'm ofroid thot doy won't come."
Suddenly Allen's voice sounded beside them. Everyone wos shocked ond the scene wos very owkword.
The thing thot they feored the most when they tolked obout others behind their bocks wos to be cought on the spot.
"Director Jones!" Director Gront coughed ond put down his chompogne gloss. His proud expression become nervous.
"If I help, your crew will disbond immediotely. Do you wont to try?" Allen looked down ot them coldly.
"Director Jones, stop joking. Hoven't we reoched on ogreement?"
"Do I look like I'm joking? You should know thot when you tolk obout my wife."
Director Gront's eyes flickered. He didn't know how to exploin. His foce turned red ond white. "Director Jones, I reolly didn't meon thot! If you insist on doing this, isn't it too unreosonoble?"
"You were tolking obout her behind her bock. I should hove pretended not to heor you?"
“I wos just soying o few words... "
"Is thot so?" Allen looked ot him coldly. "I hove enough reoson to doubt it now. You were reody to chonge people from the beginning. The occident hoppened in the crew. Do you dore to soy thot the person who chonged the props hos nothing to do with you?"
"Director Jones, whot you soid is slonder!" Director Gront stood up from the sofo, ponting heovily.
At this moment, o mon in o suit with o collor wolked over. He wos one of the importont guests invited tonight, the choirmon of HR Enterprise, Moverick Horvey.
Seeing him wolk over, the crowd outomoticolly mode woy for him.
However, he didn't core obout onyone. Insteod, he osked Allen directly, "Whot's wrong?"
"Uncle, it's fine."
"Okoy." Moverick looked meoningfully ot Director Gront who wos yelling ot Allen, then he turned oround ond left.
At this moment, Allen soid to Director Gront ogoin, "You should know thot mon just now, right? Ezekiel's fother..." His tone become very cold ond dongerous, "I seem to hove forgotten to soy thot Ezekiel's fother took ofter his moternol surnome. Originolly, his surnome should be Ezekiel Jones."
“What's there to be afraid of? I'm just telling the truth. Everyone invested in movies to make money. I can't just throw the company's interests aside for the sake of his woman..."
"Besides, she's not good at acting, and when the movie comes out, you'll know how wise I've made my decision today."
"I'm afraid that day won't come."
Suddenly Allen's voice sounded beside them. Everyone was shocked and the scene was very awkward.
The thing that they feared the most when they talked about others behind their backs was to be caught on the spot.
"Director Jones!" Director Grant coughed and put down his champagne glass. His proud expression became nervous.
"If I help, your crew will disband immediately. Do you want to try?" Allen looked down at them coldly.
"Director Jones, stop joking. Haven't we reached an agreement?"
"Do I look like I'm joking? You should know that when you talk about my wife."
Director Grant's eyes flickered. He didn't know how to explain. His face turned red and white. "Director Jones, I really didn't mean that! If you insist on doing this, isn't it too unreasonable?"
"You were talking about her behind her back. I should have pretended not to hear you?"
“I was just saying a few words... "
"Is that so?" Allen looked at him coldly. "I have enough reason to doubt it now. You were ready to change people from the beginning. The accident happened in the crew. Do you dare to say that the person who changed the props has nothing to do with you?"
"Director Jones, what you said is slander!" Director Grant stood up from the sofa, panting heavily.
At this moment, a man in a suit with a collar walked over. He was one of the important guests invited tonight, the chairman of HR Enterprise, Maverick Harvey.
Seeing him walk over, the crowd automatically made way for him.
However, he didn't care about anyone. Instead, he asked Allen directly, "What's wrong?"
"Uncle, it's fine."
"Okay." Maverick looked meaningfully at Director Grant who was yelling at Allen, then he turned around and left.
At this moment, Allen said to Director Grant again, "You should know that man just now, right? Ezekiel's father..." His tone became very cold and dangerous, "I seem to have forgotten to say that Ezekiel's father took after his maternal surname. Originally, his surname should be Ezekiel Jones."
"Ezekiel and I are cousins."
Director Grant suddenly realized something. He took half a step back and widened his eyes.
"What you just said makes sense. Everyone invested in movies to make money. I wish you good fortune." After saying that, Allen turned around and left. He was like a hurricane without mercy.
"It's over..."
Director Grant lowered his head, not knowing how to end it. Back then, they had spent a lot of effort and money to invite Ezekiel to act. It could be said that the entire movie was tailor-made for Ezekiel. It had made a lot of changes to the script and the role. If Ezekiel withdrew because of Arya, then their investment would be completely wasted.
The movie that should have been popular during summer. Now...
Director Grant didn't expect Allen to be hiding something. When he suggested the substitution, Allen agreed so readily. He should have thought that things wouldn't be so simple. Now, he was totally
fighting for the tiger's skin. How could he possibly survive?
He could only watch as hundreds of millions of yuan's worth of investment went down the drain.
"No, wait a moment. Director Jones, I think I need to think about this. Let's find a quiet place and have a good chat, okay? "
Allen shook off his hand and said bluntly, "I won't forget what you said just now. It is not too much to punish you for humiliating my wife. "
After saying that, Allen looked at the time on his phone. "At this time, it should have started."
"What?" Director Grant was stunned.
As he watched Allen leave, his phone rang. It was his assistant from the company.
"Director Grant, it's bad. Ezekiel said the crew can't take care of the actors' safety. He announced his withdrawal on the grounds of an accident."
...
Ezekiel had always been cold and arrogant in the industry. He rarely participated in public interviews, but once he opened his mouth, it meant that it was true. Otherwise, he would not have bothered to sit in front of the camera and receive a boring interview.
It was because of his strange personality that the fans and the public firmly believed his words. How could such a proud person lie in order to hype things up?
"Regarding the accident, I have already told the police everything I know. The staff in charge of the props that day is still searching."
"Arya did not cause my injury. In that case, I subconsciously made the choice that anyone would make."
"Arya did not cause my injury. In that case, I subconsciously made the choice that anyone would make."
"It was just an accident, but it was spread all over the place. Since when did the entertainment circle lack news?"
"There were even some weird nonsense that spread. I can't understand why these two things are related."
"In view of the attitude of the production team and the treatment plan, I think that since they can't guarantee my safety, I choose to quit the production team. According to the contract, this role is clearly stated. As for who everyone wants to believe, I won't force it."
Ezekiel turned off microphone after he finished speaking.
He said so much, and the fans all expressed their support for him after listening to him.
"Support Ezekiel!"
"Acting in that mountainous area is already very dangerous, and the crew can't even guarantee safety measures. Then why are they still acting? Using their lives to help them earn money? "
"The production team must have added fuel to the fire behind the scenes. There was an accident and they did not want to take responsibility, so they blamed everything on Arya. They are simply shameless."
"That's right. The production team did not give an explanation now!"Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Ezekiel handed the rest of the things to his assistant and manager and left with Louisa.
When they left the venue, Louisa stood in front of Ezekiel the whole time. She even used her hat to block Ezekiel's face. She didn't give the reporters any chance to question him.
"Make way!"
Seeing that she was very close to protecting him, Ezekiel suddenly felt that he lacked such a person beside him. Perhaps he could ask Arya for her directly and let this little girl stay by his side.
"Get in the car!"
Louisa shouted at Ezekiel.
Was she going to stand in the way of the reporters alone?
Ezekiel grabbed her wrist and pushed her into the car. He immediately jumped onto the car and told the driver to drive.
He saw Louisa's stunned look. "I asked you to block the reporters, not to let you keep yourself."
"I don't have much experience. I will know what to do next time!" Louisa suddenly thought of the injury on his arm and hurriedly asked, "How is your hand?"
