“That’s right. Mr. Atkins, please come with us. Your biscuit sandwich is almost sold out. Let’s have a sorry for leaving Roland there alone.
Meal together,” Whitney echoed. She felt
Roland nodded with a smile, and he smiled so brightly
that his wrinkles appeared at the corner of his eyes.
The three of them chatted casually. Faye looked
at
the
time and asked Roland to close the stall.
When he finished closing up the stall, Whitney drove Jonah’s car and took them to the appointed place.
As she walked into the private room, there was a person sitting facing the door.
At that time, the man was playing with his phone. When he heard the noise at the door, he looked
- up.
Whitney was stunned when she saw the man’s face. She seemed to have seen him somewhere, but she couldn’t recall for a while.
She always thought the director was an older man, but the man in front of her was very young. He was about her age and good–looking. Even if he wasn’t a director, he could do well in the entertainment industry.
“Winnie, this is the director I told you about, Mr. Massey. Don’t be nervous. He’s very nice,” Faye said as she brought Whitney to sit beside the
man.
“Hello, my name is Finnick Massey. Nice to meet you. You are different from the photos,” Finnick said politely. He saw Whitney in a period costume in the photo before, which was stunning. But now, Finnick felt a little familiar.
“She is more beautiful in real life, right?” Faye
chimed in with a smile, and Finnick nodded.
“Hello, Mr. Massey. Nice to meet you. My name is Whitney Collins,” Whitney introduced herself kindly and confidently.
“Ms. Collins, please don’t call me like that. It makes me feel old,” Finnick immediately responded.
Hearing Finnick’s words, Whitney smiled. “No, you’re young. I am a little surprised at your youth.”
“Winnie, let me tell you something. Mr. Massey is amazing and skilled. Although he is young, he has won many awards,” Faye praised him with a proud face.
Whitney looked at Faye curiously. Finnick was a director, after all, but she felt Faye was relaxed in front of him as if they were very close.
She looked at Faye and then at Finnick. Then, she was hit by a sudden realization.
It was no wonder she felt that Finnick looked familiar. If it weren’t for the close distance between Finnick and Faye, she might not have
noticed that.
Finnick’s eyes looked very similar to those of Faye, Besides, their faces looked like they had been produced in the same mass market. They looked exactly the same.
“Mrs. Massey, he is your son, right?” Whitney asked.
Faye was stunned at Whitney’s question and/replied in embarrassment, “You’re so smart. I didn’t expect you to find out about it. I didn’t tell you his identity because I was afraid that you wouldn’t believe him to be a director. But since you guessed it, I don’t have to hide it from you Finnick is really good at it. Don’t worry.“”
Finnick seemed to have guessed this result and was not surprised.

Chapter 59.
“Mom, I told you not to make it so complicated. See, you’ve been exposed,” Finnick joked and looked at Whitney, apologizing, “Sorry, Whitney. This is embarrassing. She didn’t mean it.”
“No, don’t worry.” Whitney waved her hand.
Whitney didn’t feel disgusted when she saw the mother and son sing the same tune. Instead, she felt a little funny.
“Finnick, don’t worry. Winnie is a good girl. She won’t
be so
petty,” said Roland, who had been watching them all this time.
Hearing that, Whitney turned to look at him. “Huh? Mr. Atkins, so you know it, too!”
He seemed to have been exposed, and he laughed awkwardly.
“You silly man, you’ve been exposed. Some men just can’t tell lies!” Faye complained disappointedly. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
“What do you know? The main force has broken down. I’m useless now so I should just raise my hand and surrender.” He couldn’t help laughing when he finished speaking.
The four of them chatted happily, and the atmosphere was harmonious, just like a family getting along together, relaxed and comfortable.
“By the way, this is the script. We chatted so much that I almost forgot this. Please have a look,” Finnick said as he took out a stack of papers from his briefcase behind him and handed it to Whitney.
Whitney took the document and looked at it. It was her first time acting. Of course, she had also acted in a stage play in school before. Although acting in a movie was similar to stage play, there were many differences between them.
In the stage play, when an actor stood on stage, there was no chance of making mistakes because the slightest jam or forgetting the lines could lead to fatal errors.
But being in a movie was different. Movies could allow failed takes, re–filming, editing, and post–production, and were shot in sections.
Whitney thought that since she could play well on the stage, there should be no problem for her to act in a movie.
“You don’t play as many scenes as the female lead or the second female lead, but your role runs through the whole movie.” Whitney read the script while Finnick explained it to her. “Your role is the dream lover of the male lead, his goddess. For various reasons, you two can’t be together. But he can’t forget you, and you’re his first crush.”
When Whitney heard him mention the first crush, she suddenly thought of Thiago.
Presumably, Quincey was also Thiago’s first crush. But it was estimated that….
Whitney’s thinking went off track for only a few seconds, then came back to her senses.
“The male lead has been looking for you for a long time, so a story developed between the female lead and the second female lead.” After Finnick finished, he looked at Whitney with expectations. “That’s the general story. What do you think? If you feel something is wrong, we can
still discuss it.‘
Whitney didn’t expect Finnick to be so modest. She looked at the story introduction again and thought it was an interesting story. It was like an action novel but with romance in it.
“I like this script very much. Just as Mrs. Massey said, you are talented!” It was a genuine compliment from the bottom of her heart.
“Winnie, you agreed!” Faye was excited as if she had won the first prize in the lottery, perhaps even happier.
“It’s such a good script. If I refuse it, someone will complain that I act like a diva,” Whitney joked.

Everyone laughed.
Finnick then took out his notebook and placed an exquisite pen in front of her.
Whitney looked at him and didn’t understand what he meant, thinking, ‘Is he asking me to sign a contract? But where’s the contract?‘
“Superstar, before you become famous, please give me your autograph. Otherwise, when you become immensely popular in the future, ! have to wait in line for an autograph,” Finnick said in a serious expression.
Whitney wanted to reject him. After all, she really had no interest in becoming a superstar.
