She had many thoughts in her mind, but Louis Lawrence seemed as if nothing had happened.

That smile, that look in his eyes, there was not a hint of anomaly.

It made Bella Green somewhat unsure how to face him.

Bella Green looked away, walked up to Matthew Timberlake, and greeted him with a smile.

After a brief conversation, Matthew Timberlake left, letting her and Louis Lawrence chat a bit, as they were going to have a scene together.

After Matthew Timberlake left, Bella Green finally looked at Louis Lawrence.

The man continued to smile at her.

Such a smile was very common before, but at this moment, Bella Green was unsure how to face it.

"I thought you wouldn’t come," she said.

Louis Lawrence laughed, "You haven’t paid me the penalty yet, wouldn’t it be a loss if I didn’t come?"

"So you came today for the penalty?" Bella Green squinted, sneering.

Louis Lawrence shrugged, "I think the benefits this film brings me should be more valuable than that penalty."

The meaning was obvious; he had no intention of leaving the film crew.

"Louis Lawrence, aren’t you planning to tell me even now?"

Bella Green said somewhat powerlessly.

If possible, she didn’t want to fall out with Louis Lawrence.

Moreover, she really wanted to know, what exactly was Louis Lawrence hiding from her?

Most importantly, those matters were related to her; she had the right to know.

Who wanted to harm her?

Even wanted to kill her...

Louis Lawrence looked at her, his gaze deep and unfathomable, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

Too profound, as if containing endless secrets...

"I said that was the last time; this kind of thing won’t happen again in the future." Louis Lawrence’s dark eyes grew even deeper. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Bella Green laughed, "Can your words still be trusted? Or, which of your words are true and which are false?"

Louis Lawrence stared deeply at her but said nothing.

"Or, are we really considered friends?"

Louis Lawrence’s eyes flickered, looking at her, the nonchalant laziness dissipating from his eyes.

"What do you think?"

Bella Green smiled and shook her head.

"I don’t know."

Louis Lawrence’s smile faded, lips pressed together in silence, suddenly unsure of what to say.

What should he say?

Bella Green coldly chuckled, said nothing more, turned, and left.

Louis Lawrence stood there, eyes lowered, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Neither of them noticed that not far away, behind a thick old tree, a pair of vengeful eyes stared fixedly at them.

...

On the first day, there were no scenes to be shot. The crew and props department were setting up the scenes and checking some props.

Bella Green didn’t stay long before heading to her room.

In the deep mountains and forests, there wasn’t any hotel.

However, as a film base, there were several homestays.

The environment was great, with a strong countryside aura, giving these city dwellers a different kind of charm.

They stayed in a compound, Bella Green lived in the left yard.

Entering the room, Bella Green glanced at the decor without much feeling.

She used to live in the countryside when she was in Hyattville City.

Leo Foster sorted her luggage and clapped his hands.

"President Bennett was right; you still need a life assistant. I’ll have someone report in tomorrow."

Bella Green didn’t speak; although she didn’t need anyone to serve her, this way, if it could ease Mason Bennett’s mind a bit, she had no reason to refuse.

"When can your cousin come over?"
