"It's nothing." Julia shook her head, knowing that Lisa would never leave her alone. She didn't expect her to be so cruel. It was as if she didn't even care about the play. She just wanted to retaliate against Julia.

Even though Julia was well-tempered, she was getting a little angry.

"This is outrageous! How could she do this?" Everyone else could see that Lisa had slapped her on purpose. Since Julia was an outcast and Lisa was the female lead, nobody decided to help Julia. They just watched what happened.

As Julia's assistant, Abby couldn't stand seeing Julia get bullied. Just as she was about to confront Lisa, Julia grabbed her.

"Don't go." Although she was very upset, Julia knew that it was not the right time to get angry.

"But Julia, they..." Abby stammered, glowering with anger.

"I'm fine, really." Julia forced a

ing her.

Julia simply turned a blind eye to it.

When they got on stage, they heard the director yell, "Action." Things went smoothly at first and Julia was getting ready to avenge Lisa's slap. That woman had slapped her so many times that her cheek still hurt. To get a better results, however, Julia changed her mind at the very last moment.

Although there was a crisp sound that came from Lisa's face, it didn't hurt at all.

Lisa was stunned. She never thought that Julia would be so soft-hearted.

She stared at Julia, not knowing what that woman was up to. She opened her mouth and realized that she couldn't recall her lines.

"Cut!" Director Guo's face turned red with anger as he rushed over to Lisa. In a booming voice, he yelled, "What's wrong with you? You can't even play the supporting role well. What do you want to do?"
