Stella made a mental note not to ever let Weston be so reckless with her body.

“What kind of film do you plan on directing next?” she asked Bradley, trying desperately to change the

subject.

“Me?” he laughed. “I see that you’re getting bolder now, huh? You even dare to ask me about my future

plans! Well, I don’t mind telling you anyway.”

Stella waited for his answer enthusiastically, then she heard Bradley’s light chuckle before he stated,

“My current plan is to have no future plans!”

Stella was speechless.

“After what I’ve gone through directing this movie,” he added earnestly, “I do believe I’ve earned a rest.

This movie really has taken a toll on me.”

He let out a heavy sigh, then continued, “I definitely would not be working with a demanding actress

next time.”

Stella knew exactly who he was referring to and just smiled without expressing any opinions on the

matter.

“Anyway,” said Bradley, “you’re done for the day, so go home and get a nice rest. Make sure you’re

ready for your last scene.”

“Yes, Mr. Lane.”

“Good,” replied Bradley. “I’d better go shoot the next scene now. I wonder if Angelina is ready yet. I

should go talk to her before we start.”

Stella nodded and Bradley was about to leave, but he stopped and turned around suddenly and said,

“Oh, by the way, there’s something else that I forgot to tell you.”

“What is it?”

“Your brother came here to find you, but you weren’t here, so I told him to go back to his classes and

I’d tell you he was here later.”

Stella sprang up to her feet the moment Bradley mentioned her brother.

“When did he come?”

“Yesterday,” answered Bradley. “Are you two in some kind of a tight spot right now? Your brother looked

extremely worried about you.”

“Not particularly …” Stella then became anxious. “What did he say to you? Did he tell you why he was

looking for me?”

“He didn’t seem to be in any sort of trouble,” Bradley recalled. “He said he just wanted to see you,

that’s all.”

Stella paused, then asked, “Did he… ask you where I live?”

“No.” Bradley then eyed her suspiciously. “What exactly is going on here?”

Stella calmed herself down and in a serious tone asked Bradley, “Could you help me with something

please?”

“What is it?”

“If my brother comes here again and asks you where I live, could you tell him that I am staying at a

place that the crew has arranged for me?”

Bradley stared straight at her without giving an answer.

Stella sighed and explained, “I’m renting a place on my own right now, but my brother is always worried

about my safety. He’s been insisting on staying with me, but I’m afraid that it would distract him from his

studies … He’ll be studying abroad soon, so to put his mind at ease I told him that I’m staying at a

place that the crew has arranged for me.”

“I see… But why can’t you just tell him the truth? He’s an adult. I’m sure he’ll understand.”

“We grew up together,” Stella sat down slowly. “We worry about each other a lot. It’s not that we’re

overreacting, it’s just that…”

A bitter smile crept up on her face and she added, “We are both each other’s only remaining relative. I

completely understand why he would be so worked up about my safety.”

If she had been in his shoes, she would be just as restless as he was, if not more.

“So you’re going to reassure him with a white lie?”

Bradley didn’t quite understand such a tight bond between a brother and a sister, but he could

sympathize with Stella’s dilemma.

“Next time he comes looking for you, I’ll cover for you.”

“Thank you, Mr. Lane.”

“So where do you actually live right now?”

Stella paused. She didn’t think that he’d ask the question.

“I’m renting a place in an apartment complex just two blocks away like the other actors.”
