Chapter 2219

Ivy paused mid-stroke as she was towel-drying her hair.

Her assistant, always one to shoot straight, was visibly peeved. How could anyone expect

her to hold her breath deep underwater when she had a water phobia?

After all, acting was just a job, and fans’ adoration was just an added halo of glory.

Ivy did not need to risk her life for a scene, did she?

Besides, she knew all too well that for Ivy; sinking into the ocean’s depths was not as

simple as closing her eyes and then opening them again.

Every second submerged felt like an eternity to her.

In the grip of such terror, how could she possibly control her movements?

Diana’s comments were obviously flippant. After all, she did not fear the water, but she

was not the lead actress.

Ivy stopped her assistant, appreciating her concern. This was the only person who would

stand up for her.

But the assistant was just that-an assistant. Her influence was minimal, and Ivy was

unsure she had the clout to ensure her safety.

When faced with Diana’s provocations, she would rather take on a bit more grief than let

her assistant take risks on her behalf.

“Let’s cut to the chase. If you’re not shooting, give the director a heads-up. No need to

keep testing the waters and wasting everyone’s time. Drying your hair takes long enough

as it is.”

Ivy’s hair had to be dried repeatedly to recreate the exact conditions for the shoot.

It was then that Colton approached, eyes filled with concern.

“There’s no need to cave to someone else’s baiting. Your health is paramount.”

If possible, he would love his film to have no stunt doubles, but sometimes actors had no

control over, he had no choice but to compromise.

He was not some old-school tyrant insisting Ivy learn to tread water.

For actors, valuing their health was crucial to their future prospects.

Ivy took a deep breath, dabbed at her hair, and nodded.

Colton nodded, giving her the space she needed.

The rest of the crew was told to stand down and take a break.

“What do you think about this? We shoot a few more takes or let lvy shoot just the scene.

where she falls into the sea and then use a stunt double for the underwater shots.

That way, we can keep the story seamless.”

Colton took a drag of his cigarette, exasperated. “You think I haven’t thought of that? To

be honest, I’m realizing the downside of casting such a distinctive lead! These stunt

doubles are skilled and look good, but up against Ivy-especially on camera-they’re

miles off.

Ivy’s not just pretty; she has a presence that’s uniquely hers. How could we not have

continuity issues? If we have to, we’ll just go with it. If it looks off, it looks off. We can’t

drive our leading lady to the brink.”

The producer chuckled and slapped Colton’s shoulder. “You’re not afraid of killing the rest

of us with jealousy, huh? You’ve got a lead actress who’s both talented and

low-maintenance. Just count your blessings. Once we wrap this film, I need to talk to Ivy.

I’ve found a script that if she’s willing to continue collaborating…”

His mind raced to the film’s potential blockbuster release, and he could not help but smirk

smugly.

“I hope she agrees to work with me.”

Colton stubbed out his cigarette. “If your script’s good enough, she’ll certainly sign on.”
