Arielle opened her mouth about to apologize, when her assistant spoke. âTm sorry, Ms. Seren Ms. Moore
isnât the one at fault. There was a car accident earlier, so we were trapped in the traffic for quite a while.
If not for it, we wouldâve arrived half an hour earlier.â
However, Serena refused to accept the explanation. Instead, she uttered, âThen you shouldâve left
earlier. Iâm sure you wouldnât be late if you were to leave your place an hour earlier, right?â
The assistant, Iris, froze. She never thought the person in charge would be such a difficult person to deal
with
Just as she was about to continue her explanation, Arielle reached out her hand to stop her. With a
solemn expression, Arielle said, âMs. Serena, regardless of everything. Itâs wrong of me to have been
late. Let me apologize to you and the rest of the staff.â
âDo you think an apology would be sufficient? Have you watched any shows? Do you think apologies
can salvage everything? If you killed a man, do you think an apology would bring him back to life?â
At that, Arielle creased her forehead. By now, she knew the other woman was just picking a bone with
her
Taking in a subtle deep breath, Arielle said, âThen Iâll be responsible for this. Iâll do my best to speed
up the shooting later. However, if we still spend more time that weâve planned to alihe outdoor shooting,
11 pay the extra.â
Serena burst out laughing.
âMs. Moore, are you being serious? As far as I kunow, you have zero ffilming experience. Before coming
to Jadeborough, you only lived in a small village. Do you know what filming is? Filming isnât the same as
taking photos. You need to meld with the environment, the clothes, and the themeâ¦â
Arielle interrupted, âMs. Serena, if you keep this up. youâll only waste more time. Since the outdoor
location charges per minute, letâs not waste any more time and get into it.â
Serenaâs expression darkened. Sheâs using my words agamst me
Annoyed, she huffed. âTill look forward to your shooting, then.â
Instead of answering her, Arielle headed to the dressing room to change her clothes
The first set of costumes was Soir Coffeeâs employee outfit.
It was dark blue with a chefâs hat. Anyone else would look like an ordinary coffee shop employee in that
outfit, but Arielle looked gorgeous in it.
It was as if she was born for fashion, any clothing fitted her well. No matter what she wore, others
Dould not tear their eyes off her.
The makeup artist gasped, âMs. Samne, itâs such a waste that youâre not a model with a face like
Arielle smiled but said nothing to that. She had once been a model on an international catwalk but she
had been wearing a mask back then.
However, upon walking out of the dressing room with her makeup. Serena frowned. âNo coffee shop staff
wears makeup. This will affect the taste of the coffee. Remove it right away!â
There were two reasons for Serena to say that. Arielle was too pretty and eye-catching, so she did not
want the others to think that she was a flawless woman, she only wanted others to think that Arielle was
unworthy of being Soir Coffeeâs ambassador
The other reason was that she wanted to waste Arielleâs time so that Arielle would have to pay for the
extra
Ever since she was demoted, she had been earning three times lesser than before. Hence, she had to
make Arielle suffer with her.
Yet, Serena had forgotten that her arrogance and selfishness were the reason for her downfall.
After hearing her, Arielle quietly returned to get the makeup artist to remove her makeup
Meanwhile, Serena waited outside for Arielle to reappear with an ugly face. To her, Arielleâs beauty was
too surreal, so Serena was sure that Arielle was only beautiful because of her makeup,
Once she removed her makeup, Serena Was certain that she would be nothing but an ugly witch
The more Serena thought about it, the more eager she was to look at the hideous Arielle
