Actress Calista Need My Help

At the same time, Mom squeezed the back of my hand.

The mother's affection was conveyed through the hand she held.

"Oh, no, I don't really… … ."

I was just embarrassed by my mother's sincere confession.

I don't think I've done anything that great.

But it was a happy fact that I became my mother's motivation in some form.

Warmth spread from the hand my mother held.

If she had held on like this all the time.

"And our Cali was in a similar situation as me at the time. Right Cali?"

Actress Calista nodded with a bitter expression.

"After 'My Strange Relationship,' all the dramas I filmed failed. This is actually my last chance."

If I think about it, Calista has been very quiet recently compared to the name value. 

It's not that she wasn't acting—she was, but the fact that it was so quiet even though it was constantly on the air meant that her role in things was not as successful as it was in My Strange Relationship, and she was quietly getting buried.

"There is no way you will fail this time, given that you will appear with me," My mother said.

Compared to Calista, who had a nervous face, my mother was full of confidence.

My mom is the golden ticket of the broadcasting industry. As long as she appears, the show is guaranteed to be a hit, so it's natural to be overflowing with confidence.

On the contrary, Calista's confidence is weaker than a candle just before it goes out.

"To be honest, I chose the work with that in mind. If I work with teacher Evadne, I will never fail. But that alone is not enough. This time, I have to prove the value of actress Calista."

"Oh, yeah."

I see.

But why are you telling me that?

I am an ordinary person who has nothing to do with it.

"So, just like Rye helped me back then, I hope you can help Cali too."

"No, Mom, wait a minute. Isn't that a bit strange? Even if you say that because Mom is a mom, there's no way the same thing would happen to Ms. Calista, right?"

"No. I can tell. I know that my Rye will be equally helpful to Cali."

No way. Where on earth does my mother's unfounded belief come from?

I understood that Calista was in a slump and that she asked my mother for help to overcome the slump.

But I don't know what my mother meant when she introduced me to her.

Since I am family to my mom, my presence may have helped her emotionally.

However, it did not occur to me at all that I would be of help to Calista, who was a complete stranger to me.

"I'd like to ask you a favor too, Mr. Ryker."

"Ugh."

Calista bowed her head again.

She doesn't know about me. All she knows is the information she may have gotten from my mom. She may have had unnecessary expectations because of my mother's exaggerated stories about her.

"Hey, I understand how you feel, Ms. Calista, but wouldn't it be better to discuss such matters with an acting expert rather than me? I'm really at an amateur level..."

I expressed my intention to decline with great difficulty.

Caliata also smiled as if she understood my embarrassed face.

"You must be embarrassed to suddenly hear something like this. I know, it's ridiculous."

"Then…"

"If it were normal, I would never have asked you this. But I also tried everything I could, and now I told Teacher Evadne with a feeling of grasping my last straw. Since she asked me to do this, I have no choice but to trust you and do as she tell me, right Please take care of me. Mr. Ryker."

Calista smiled brightly and held her hand. It seems there is no use in refusing her.

I have to support top actress in overcoming her slump. The responsibility was too much for me.

"Is there anyone in county who is more expert in this field than your mother? Don't worry. Since she said, then I know you can definitely solve it well."

"That…"

I didn't come here for this.

I just wanted to restore my relationship with my mother.

While I was in a daze, the table was already set, and the meat was being grilled on the grill.

Receive a treat for my help. It's not that I don't want to help, but I did something wrong, and Calista didn't do well. Then won't she blame me and my mother?

It may be difficult for me to be as helpful as I was for Mom to Calista, as she expected.

But no matter what the content is, she trusted me to do it. I had to do as much as I could.

Because I can't disappoint my mom.

I made up my mind.
