Chapter 293: Healed From My Childhood Trauma

SLAP!

Everyone gasped; jaws dropped. One second, they’d seen Lola approach Melissa, and the next, a resounding slap echoed across the set.

For several frozen seconds, everyone stood still, eyes fixed on Melissa and Lola. Melissa’s head turned to the side, her hand pressed to the throbbing cheek. When she looked back at Lola, another slap landed on the other side.

"Kyah!" Melissa fell to her knees as her cheek swelled.

"Oh my God." A crew member jumped back. "Has she lost her mind?"

Even Simon scoffed. "That crazy girl... what the hell is she doing?"

Some people looked toward Director Sarian, only to see him duck his head as if trying to hide. He clearly didn’t want to witness such cruelty. Megan and Pixy opened and closed their mouths in shock.

These were the same girls who’d been advised not to waste their energy on Melissa. And yet the woman who told them Melissa wasn’t worth it had just slapped her left and right.

Cedrick and Silo stood with their jaws on the floor.

"That crazy—she finally did it!" Silo ground his teeth. "I should’ve kept my eyes on her!"

Knowing Lola, Silo feared only one thing: that Lola might actually kill Melissa this time. Melissa probably deserved it, but Lola’s blows weren’t for a delicate fake flower like her. She’d ruin her for sure.

"Hey!" Manager Kang, standing beside Simon, stepped forward. "Lola Young, what in the world are you doing?! How could you just slap Melissa for no reason?!" He scooped Melissa up, gasping, and glared at Lola when he saw the palm print on her cheek.

"Lola Young! Have you lost your mind? Apologize now!"

Lola glanced at Manager Kang and arched a brow. "Want to get slapped too?"

"What are you—" he choked, taking a step back, gulping. "What—what are you all doing?! How could you let this woman do whatever she wants! Lola has always been jealous of Melissa! You can’t just let her around here."

No matter how loud Manager Kang yelled, no one stepped forward. They didn’t want to get slapped either. Ida did move toward them, but she kept her distance.

"Taz!" Ida called, worried, but Lola ignored her.

Lola’s gaze stayed on Melissa, who glared at her bitterly.

"Say your lines now," Lola nodded.

"How could I—"

"SAY THEM!" Lola roared, making Melissa tremble. A glint flickered in Lola’s eyes. "You’re angry I slapped you? Then use that anger—act like it, Melissa. If you’re going to get this role, be worthy of it. Otherwise, I’ll start pulling strings to kick you out... or better yet, I’ll keep slapping sense into you."

"You—"

"We’ll resume in thirty seconds!" Lola clapped and turned her back on Melissa, walking back to Director Sarian. "Ready!"

Her second yell snapped everyone back to their senses. Quickly, the crew moved to prepare the scene.

"Manager Kang," Ida said, approaching them. "Please. We’re starting now."

Manager Kang ground his teeth, seething, but with Ida guiding him away, he had no choice but to swallow his anger. Melissa hung her head and glared daggers at Lola.

I’m going to kill her, Melissa vowed inwardly. Just you wait, Lola. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"Ready!" a crew member shouted, holding the clapperboard. "...action!"

And this is why I don’t want to meddle, Lola thought, trying to avoid Director Sarian’s praises.
