"If Assistant Director Smith is happy and is willing to give me more screen time," Alexis went on, "I will naturally give you the photo album."
That last part was said in a low voice and the words sounded like a threat.
"Well, since you are already here, let's have a drink." Director Claire directly poured GClaire a glass of red wine, indicating that she should start drinking.
Claire was still staring at Alexis with pursed lips. It seemed that this 'kind' sister of hers was going to sell her off in exchange for increased screen time in a film.
Evelyn picked up the wine glass and handed it to Claire. "Claire, since you destroyed my opportunity to stardom in the past, it's not too much for me to ask you to compensate me now. What's more, if you win Director Smith's favor, you might be able to live a better life in the future. I'm doing this for your own good."
"It's the first time I've heard someone say such things in such a clean and righteous-sounding way." Claire directly swatted the wine glass away, causing the red wine inside to spill all over the ground.
"Don't you want the album anymore?" Alexis asked through gritted teeth.
"I never thought I'd have to be selling my body in exchange for it," Claire replied. Her mother would not have been happy to see her do such a thing.
However, when she turned around and was about to leave, the Director suddenly said, "Well, you don't care about giving me any respect, do you? Do you really think that you are still the girlfriend of Mayer's family heir? I heard from Alexis that you are now a street cleaner. You should consider it a compliment that I even offered you a drink!"
claire replied, "I don't need your compliments."
Under the influence of alcohol, Assistant Director Smith rushed towards Claire and slapped her right in her face, then said, "If I want you to drink, then you will drink! Why are you acting all high and mighty when you're just a failure-a f*cking convict?!"
As he spoke, he grabbed Claire roughly by the jaw. In the next instant, he had the bottle of alcohol and was pouring it into her mouth.
Claire wanted to push him away, but a man's strength was much greater than a woman's, not to mention that Alexis was helping him from the side. Her sister was holding Claire's arms, so she could only jerk and try not to choke.
The Director paused only to thank Alexis for her help, saying, "You're still smart," he told her. "I'll talk to the writers and give you more screen time."
Naturally Alexis put in even more effort. "Thank you, Assistant Director. My sister isn't smart, so please be understanding."
Claire didn't know how much wine she had been forced to drink. Her alcohol tolerance wasn't good, to begin with, and at that moment, she already felt a little intoxicated. She tried to hold on to the last of her sobriety. "I... I want to go back..."
"Alright, I'll take you back in a moment." The man only relented when Claire wobbled on her feet.
Claire's vision wavered. But she saw the heated look in this man's eyes and she tried to plan a way to escape.
Assistant Director Smith liked the way his handprint glowed bright red on this woman's face. The woman in front of him did not have sexual charms. She was too thin and plain. He preferred his women with fake tits and hip. But when he thought that this woman had once been Sean Steven's girlfriend, he couldn't help but get excited.
