Chapter 177 Negative News Strikes
Half a month had passed, and the production team was already preparing for the wrap-up of the
show.
Abigail had some free time lately.
Eric had scheduled to take her to the Davidson Residence a week after the wrap-up to get Maisy’s
measurements.
One day, while idling at the production team, Abigail received a call from Luna.
“Abigail, we’ve scored a big job!” Luna’s voice was filled with excitement.
Abigail was puzzled. “What’s that? Did someone offer you a sweet deal?”
“Do you know who Lexie Chambers is?” Luna’s voice was full of amusement.
Abigail certainly knew. Lexie was a Hollywood actress who had even won awards and was internationally renowned.
“She personally called me today and said that there’s an international red carpet event in June. and she hopes you can design a gown for her. She wants to outshine everyone on the red carpet,” Luna said with excitement.
Abigail was a bit taken aback by Lexie’s request to outshine everyone, but it was still March, and there were three months for the design.
“I’ve already turned down all the other brands that wanted you to design for them and promised Lexie on your behalf. If your design can make her outshine everyone on the international stage, then L.Moon will truly take off.” Luna was already dreaming big.
Abigail made a hesitant sound. “All right.”
However, the thought of Eric’s grandmother’s situation came to her mind, and she felt a bit conflicted.
After Eric finished filming, Abigail proactively discussed it with him. “Alana just discussed it with me. She mentioned that she accepted a design project for Lexie and feared that she wouldn’t be able to personally design for your grandmother. So, I wanted to ask you if you would be okay if another designer from L.Moon handled your grandmother’s design.”
Verbal agreements could still be changed, and Abigail hadn’t firmly committed to it at the time. She had mentioned that if anything came up, she might not be able to design for his grandmother.
“Lexie is a big deal…” Eric also sensed Abigail’s dilemma.
After all, Lexie was a sought-after figure in the industry, and everyone wanted to be in her good. books.
It was reasonable for L.Moon to prioritize a project for her to promote the studio’s growth.
“I understand. I’ll inform my grandmother, and when Alana finishes designing for Lexie, she can. proceed with the design for my grandmother. How does that sound?” Eric readily agreed and showed no intention of making things difficult for Abigail.
That worked out well.
“But what if something comes up later?” Abigail couldn’t help but ask.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“My grandmother’s 70th birthday isn’t until next year. Can you… talk to Alana about it?” Eric asked with a touch of pleading in his voice.
Abigail hadn’t expected him to use his charm.
She was briefly stunned and wasn’t swayed by it. Instead, she was curious about why he was adamant. “Why does it have to be Alana?”
“Maybe it’s because of my grandmother’s personal preference. She said she really liked. you moment she saw you. She knew you were an assistant working at L.Moon and wanted you to handle more high- profile projects to make L.Moon value you more.” Eric explained gently.
This response genuinely surprised Abigail.
“My grandmother said that being an assistant isn’t easy,” he added as he looked at her.
the
“Well, in that case, when Alana finishes designing for Lexie, I will definitely talk to her to prioritize your grandmother’s project, Abigail replied with a slight smile on her face.
Eric’s expression brightened instantly.
With that settled, she began visiting the studio more frequently.
“Troubled Times’ wrapped up, and the actors and actresses, who were dressed in their costumes, took photos to commemorate the occasion and posted them on Instagram.
As the show had been extremely popular initially, it quickly started trending again.
Josie wore traditional clothing and returned to her original style.
Whether it was the supporting actors or the lead cast, their outfits were of high quality, instantly propelling L.Moon into the spotlight.
Netizens couldn’t help but bring up Laura for comparison.
The attention to detail in these outfits shows L.Moon’s capabilities. Laura called the outfits ugly, but I think she doesn’t match the clothing because of her looks.”
‘A mature studio should be able to pay attention to the details of traditional clothing, which is quite normal. I still remember the commotion caused when they filmed the Western Roman Empire’s invasion. If they don’t deliver on the costume quality, I’ll be the first one to criticize
L.Moon.’
‘Not to exaggerate, but isn’t this one of the most beautifully crafted shows in recent years? It doesn’t follow the same trends or use cheap materials. It’s truly exquisite. I believe historical dramas should be held to this standard.
‘Don’t speak too soon. Can’t these pictures be edited? Moreover, this is a historical drama, and I can’t stand historical dramas nowadays. They’re slow-paced, and I feel like falling asleep. What use is there in having good clothing quality?”
There were varied opinions.
Meanwhile, at this time, a trending topic emerged-‘Cousin Sleeping with Each Other Shatters Morality.
Abigail immediately sensed that it was about her and Sean.
She clicked on the topic, but there was no detailed information. Instead, there were numerous paparazzi photos and a video at the end.
The video had been taken on New Year’s Eve at the hotel where they were staying during the drama shoot.
Based on the angle, it seemed like it was taken through a window, as they hadn’t drawn the curtains. First, it showed Sean holding Abigail affectionately, and later, when Abigail had fallen asleep, he had carried her to the bed. They were together until around 3.00AM before he left….
Combined with the photos of her returning to Pendorf and the pictures of Sean entering the rented apartment with her, it wasn’t difficult for people to put the two together.
