Chapter 790: Chapter 787: You’re Not Pregnant, So Why Are You So Moody?

Seeing that she was furious, Mason Holden reluctantly glanced at Seth Quinn before leaving the dressing room. He paused, staring back at the door for a moment in thought, then ran off to find Director Keane.

Only Clara and Seth Quinn remained in the dressing room. Clara looked at the man before her, his expression still dark, and said indignantly, "Seth Quinn, I already told you, I was the one who made the suggestion. What’s your problem with him?

We’ve only been filming for a few days, and you already want to replace an actor? The male lead, no less! How is the crew supposed to keep filming properly? How are Director Keane and Ryston supposed to do their jobs?"

Seth Quinn arched an eyebrow. "You do know me well, figuring out I was going to have him replaced."

Clara grew even more frantic. "Seth Quinn, I was really the one who suggested it! If you don’t believe me, you can ask Ryston. She was right there."

’She couldn’t bear the thought of ruining another actor’s career over something so trivial.’

Biting her lip, Clara walked closer to Seth Quinn, her tone softening. "I’ll listen to you. We won’t change the scene. We’ll leave it as is, alright?"

"So you’re not changing it now? From yesterday until just a moment ago, weren’t you completely adamant? Weren’t you giving me the cold shoulder over this? Why the sudden change of heart?"

"...I was wrong. I shouldn’t have been angry with you yesterday. It’s that time of the month, and I was in a bad mood, so I picked a fight. I was being unreasonable, alright? Can you please not hold it against me?" Clara’s attitude was as sincere as could be. ’Besides, admitting I’m wrong won’t kill me!’

’If a simple apology could save an actor’s career, it was a pretty good trade!’

’Besides, she now realized she had been overly sensitive and a little irrational.’

Seth Quinn stared at her for a moment before finally speaking. "I can agree not to replace him, but you have to promise me something. From now on, you can’t ignore me. Even if you’re upset and don’t want to talk to me, fine, but it can’t be for more than two hours, tops."

"Okay, I promise!" Clara said, then added with a solemn expression, "I promise I will never ignore you for that long again."

She then looked at him cautiously and asked, "So... we’re good now, right?"

Seth Quinn sighed and reached out to take her hand. "Do you have any idea how worried I was when you ran off in a taxi by yourself today? Don’t you ever do that again, you hear me?"

Perhaps it was the gentleness in his voice, but Clara’s eyes suddenly stung, and she nearly started crying. She quickly buried her face in Seth Quinn’s chest, sniffled, and said, "I know. I won’t again."

Holding her and stroking her long hair, Seth Quinn teased with a laugh, "They say pregnant women are emotional and prone to mood swings. You’re not pregnant, so what’s your excuse for being so temperamental?"

Clara’s heart skipped a beat. In a fluster, she said, "Who says only pregnant women get like this? Women on their period are like this too, you know!"

After she spoke, she didn’t lift her head, keeping it buried in his chest. A moment later, her voice came out muffled. "Even though I’m not pregnant... I still want to ask you... what if... what if..."

Before she could finish her sentence, there was a loud BANG as the dressing room door was thrown open and several figures burst inside.

"President Quinn, you’ve misunderstood Clara! The whole thing with the kissing scene was my..."

Director Keane’s words trailed off as he got a clear look at the two people wrapped in an embrace inside. His voice died in his throat. He, along with Rhys Ryston and Mason Holden behind him, froze on the spot.
