22 Chapter 22: Injury

The assistant director had experienced a lot of significant events, but he couldn't help but tremble when he heard the voice. He quickly said, "This is an accident. It's just an accident. Mr. Yates, please forgive us. It has never happened before."

It has never happened before, but only today, when I am here. So I should be blamed?" The assistant director was shocked by hearing his words, and he knew that Mr. Yates was not ready to let go of it quickly.

"Of course not, how dare us to blame you." The assistant director smiled at Stuart and raised his head. His face changed abruptly, shouting at the stage supervisor, "Where is the stage supervisor! Where is he with such a serious accident?"

The stage supervisor who made the stunt rigging for Edie ran to them and felt the atmosphere. He knew it was serious and quickly bowed his head, "Director…" He didn't know what to call Stuart, feeling that the person was so influential. He was even afraid to look at him.

The assistant director was not friendly with the employees and roared, "Are you all idiots?! You can't even make stunt rigging! If Mr. Yates were not here, there would have been someone who got seriously injured today! Who is responsible for this? You? Idiot! Crap!"

The stage supervisor was abused fiercely, but did not dare to argue a word and just nodded. "You are fired! You will never work here again." The assistant director waved his hand and just wanted to end this thing quickly by pushing the man responsible out.

The stage supervisor initially thought that no one was injured, and it was okay to be abused by the assistant director. He didn't expect that he would lose his job. His face quickly changed, and he bowed and begged the assistant director with a bitter look, "Director, don't be angry. Please give me another chance. It's because the device was stuck today, and I promise it will never happen again."

"There is no next time! Get out of here now!" The assistant director shouted at the stage supervisor, then waved his hand to indicate someone to pull him out. Then he turned his head and smiled at Stuart, "Mr. Yates, you were also injured in the rescue of Edie. Why not have a rest?"

The eyes of Stuart slowly fell to the face of the assistant director, and his thin lips were slightly raised, but there was no smile. He was getting colder and colder, "Do you want to end this thing like that?" The assistant director stood dazedly and had a lousy presentiment in his heart.

"Actors and actresses, stop auditioning. The filming stops too. Ask Chris York personally to give me an answer. It the answer is not good," Stuart stopped for a second, with his eyes colder, "You all will not have a job."

The assistant director was shocked that he needed to take a step back after hearing these words. Chris was a great T.V. series director who had won many awards. He was more than fifty years old, but Stuart asked him personally to give him an answer.

However, as long as the word he said today was out, he could make all investments of knight-Errant drawn out without doing anything. No one would invest in their productions anymore. This was the status of Stuart Yates.

Finishing his words, Stuart quietly walked outside. The assistant director was too scared to speak clearly, "Mister… Mr. Yates, we can… is there another way." He spoke and wanted to drag the suit off Stuart.

Stuart lifted his eyes, and his cold thin lips only spat out one simple word, "Get out." The assistant director did not dare to move anymore. The crowd quickly made way for him, and Stuart walked away without turning back.

Edie was supported by Rhoda and looked at the final figure of Stuart leaving. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that his back was quite stiff.

"Edie, are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?" Rhoda asked with concern. Edie shook her head, "No. He caught me and he broke my fall."

Rhoda breathed a sigh of relief, "I was scared to death. This filming group was really unreliable. Even stunt rigging such an important thing was not well checked. If it was not for Mr. Yates, you might have been seriously injured.

I didn't expect Mr. Yates to look so cold, but it is good that he happened to be here. He actually took the initiative to catch you. When he fell, it sounded deafening, and I even heard it outside."

Edie was frightened that she didn't pay attention to the sound when Stuart fell.

She heard her words and couldn't help but widen her eyes, "How bad is it? Was he injured?"

"It's probably serious. After all, you weigh around one hundred and twenty pounds, and you fell from such a high place considering gravity. He landed right on his back.

It is even scary talking about it... But it is for certain since Mr. Yates didn't say anything. It may not be severe." Edie knew his character. Of course, he would not say anything. She was a little anxious in her heart, speaking to Rhoda, "Please go back to the company and report to Danny later about the situation today. I have to go."

After that, she didn't wait for her answers and went towards the direction Stuart just let. The assistant director had not recovered from the words of Stuart, and he just stood still. The people who heard the words of Stuart did not dare to move and didn't know if the audition would continue.

Only the screenwriter hesitated for a second and bravely broke the dilemma, "Director, what should we do?" The assistant director murmured, "What should we do…?"

He didn't dare to enter the L.N. Group to see Stuart. He might not be unable to step into the gate. What could he do? The producer carefully said, "Director, I can't keep investing anymore. It's a big problem since Mr. Yates has made orders.

It's not that I don't want to help you, but the filming hasn't started, I have to withdraw my money." As soon as the assistant director heard that he was going to withdraw his money, he was suddenly aware and cried out, "Call Mr. York! Beg Mr. York to ask Mr. Yates for forgiveness!"

When Edie chased after Stuart, he was gone. The number on the elevator showed it was on the first floor, and she was confident that Stuart was inside. Edie could feel a little panic in her heart.

Stuart suddenly came back from Hong Kong and went to the place where she auditioned. She always had a hunch that he was specifically looking for her. What went wrong? What happened?

She did not even talk to him, and she was the cause of him hurting his back because he saved her. Edie knew that she had to see him right away and said: "thank you." After waiting for a long time, the elevator came up, and when Edie took the elevator down, Stuart had disappeared.

Edie took a look around and asked the young receptionist of the Movie Entertainment, "Could you tell me if you saw a man leaving just now?" The receptionist was holding her chin absentmindedly.

Hearing her question, she still kept the posture without even moving her eyelids and impatiently asked, "What man? There are hundreds of men in and out of here every day." Edie was stunned.

She was right. It was such a big company with so many people coming and going. During the two minutes she had been here, there were already seven or eight men passing by. How could the receptionist notice everyone?

"That is... a man in a black suit, about six foot one, very handsome and very indifferent..." Edie said with her voice smaller and smaller. Such a vague description, if someone were to ask her, she would think that the person was a fool.

She didn't expect the receptionist had her eyes shining and asked, "Is it a man who looked very rich, who is a sexy frosty handsome man and can freeze people from miles away?" Edie was a little uncomfortable.

What was the description of a "sexy frosty handsome man"? She carefully thought about it and found that these four words were very suitable for Stuart. She tentatively asked, "Yes, have you seen him?"

The receptionist said with fascination while holding her cheeks, "I saw him. He is really handsome, more handsome than all the stars I have seen. Maybe he is a new star in the company. When will I see him again...? Oh, what a handsome man! And his frosty temperament is so charming!"
