Loving A STRANGER Chapter 85
Advertisement
Lily was scared, so she grabbed the glass before Kylie could reach it. "It's not a problem with the water; it's me... I just suddenly keep coughing," she said.
She tightly gripped the glass. If they found out that something was wrong with her drink, she would surely figure it out. Then, it would be inevitable for the property manager to be involved. If everyone found out that she had deliberately framed Kylie, she would lose her position of power in the entertainment industry.
The lighting engineer, the recording director, and even the props man were all wearing disdainful looks.
"This is a test of her acting. Once, Oscar-winning actor Cliff Benjamin mistakenly drank soy sauce, when it was supposed to be cola. He frowned but continued his scene. After the shot, he said that the props were misplaced, and warned everyone to be careful."
"How could she get The Best Newcomer Award? I think she's only worth The Best Pretentiousness Award."
"I used to think that Kylie couldn't play the role of Becky well. I never expected that her emotional performance would be so good. Her acting skills have impressed me."
"Yesterday, during the scene in which Kylie's character kidnaps Sam, I was really excited. I really wanted to push her down for Sam."
"Yeah, yeah. I really look forward to their love scenes. Oh, my heart beats faster..."

After a short makeup break, they started shooting again.
This time, Lily couldn't tell apart the hallucinogenic water from the regular water. She just had to risk it.
However, the script included more than a single cup. She drank a total of seven cups with Kylie.
Lily's cheeks became very red, and her eyes began to blur.
"Lily, what the hell is going on?! What I want is an insidious villain, not a sexy whore." Julian was unbearably angry and tossed the script against the ground.

Lily sat on the ground. She saw that Kylie was laughing at her; she was mocking, smug, scornful...
Then she saw her former assistant, Faith, standing in front of Kylie. She was pointing at her wine glass and saying something.
It turned out that Kylie had already known about Lily's tricks, and had deliberately switched their props.
"Kylie, You…you…little bitch. It's you! You did this to me." Lily rushed at her like a monster.
Faith reacted quickly and pulled Kylie away. "You deserve it. You're the one who harmed yourself. You can't blame others."
When Lily saw that Faith was standing by Kylie's side, she became even angry.
"You bitch, did you overhear my conversation with the property manager? Did you switch the glasses?" Lily pointed at Faith, shouting.
At that moment, the property master happened to pass by. She quickly picked up the flagon off the table. "I didn't tell you anything, don't destroy my reputation." After that, the property manager quickly walked away.
Faith looked at Lily and asked peacefully: "You look uncomfortable; should I get you a doctor?"
"That's my business." Lily kicked at the table and tugged hard at the neck of her shirt.
The hallucinogens were working, and she was uncomfortable. It felt like ants were biting her body.
The other people around her noticed that she was not fine. Khloe tried to help her to her feet, but Lily pushed her to the ground.
Julian called two security guards to take her away. In front of a gathering crowd, Lily struggled wildly.
"Don't touch me. You bastards! You're all idiots! You're all her accomplices!
"Whoever dares to touch me, my sugar daddy will kick your asses.
"Kylie, you slut. You will pay the price..."
Lily acted like a crazy woman. She eventually escaped the guards and knocked down several lamps. Frightened staff members ran off, trying to avoid her.

The media had already received a notice and were waiting outside the set to film evidence of the actress going crazy.
At that time, Lily rushed out and was pursued by a group of security guards.
"Miss Lawrence, why are you losing your temper?"
"Someone told the media that an actress in the crew was misbehaving. Have you got anything to say?"
"Does the script require you to dress like this? Did anyone force you?"
Lily tried to gather herself. She groggily looked at the reporters around her. She smiled and pointed at her own nose. "I called you..."
"You called us? Is there an inside story?"
"Please tell me what happened there. Are you okay?"
"Are you taking drugs?"
Lily had completely lost control of her own mind. She raised her hands up and began to shake her head. She mumbled: "Dance... Dance together... Wow. It's funny..."
Julian received the notice and hurried outside to protect his crew from the media.
"Sorry, everyone. Lily has some mental problems and is temporarily out of the show. Sorry that you came in vain. I will arrange for you to come visit the set tomorrow. Is that okay? Thanks."
Julian was a prestigious director. The media naturally supported him and believed in what he said, but Lily was miserable.
As soon as the news of her breakdown was made public, she would be completely erased from the entertainment industry.
The bystanders gradually dispersed.
Khloe stood up with some help from the others. She looked at Kylie with incredulity. "Sister, when did the company hire an assistant for you?"
Kylie shrugged her shoulders casually. "I hired her. I'll report it to the company soon."
"Sister, you will soon be rejected by the company. Aren't you ruining her future?" Khloe asked with a smirk.
"I have money. I wanted an assistant," Kylie casually peeled the wrapper off a chewing gum and tossed it into her mouth. "It's none of your business. You'd better focus on yourself."
"You are really shameless, playing tricks on Lily."
"I'm shameless?" Kylie picked up her backpack and smiled. "If she hadn't tried to trap me, she wouldn't have trapped herself. You should look into her IQ. How can you be friends with such an idiot?"
"You..." Khloe's face went purple with rage, and she clenched her teeth together.
She hadn't expected Lily to be so stupid. Why had she attempted to trap her in such a lowly manner? And not only that—but she had lost her genius assistant to Kylie, as well!
Yet Khloe would definitely fight back; she must not give Kylie another chance.
