Chapter 176 - Identity At Risk



After the scene, Aarvi turned to Esme to know how she did. However, Esme was already walking towards her.

Esme didn't hand the wet towel to Aarvi, instead, she gently pressed it on Aarvi's face, "Girl, you didn't even use glycerine. How do you bring them out?" She teased.

Mia Craft was frozen realizing she missed many details. It was clearly mentioned in the handbook, Madeleine forces herself to move off for the sake of the male lead's happiness so she leaves all the memories of him behind before flying off to her parents without telling him.

She was a strong woman for a reason and against the Madeleine character Aarvi portrayed wasn't only emotional and kind but also stronger. That determination to move on didn't come into Mia's mind at all so She realized she was lacking at some point even though she was good at acting.

However, her agent snapped out and noticed Aeon frozen even after the act was completed so she was afraid Mia Craft might lose her position and that would directly impact her income, so, "Mia, don't you feel something fishy? That girl didn't even check the scene other than watching you, how did she know the wristwatch Madeleine wears is gifted by the male lead.

And that was enough to incite Mia Craft back to fury.

The David Beckham who exited the glass door of the office noticed all still except two beautiful ladies having gentle smiles. He ignored all and asked, "Senior Esme, Is she your apprentice? If yes, she has the power to change the entertainment world's focus from us to you, female leads."

Esme glanced at him and flashed a faint smile, "I wish so too… Excuse us." She was glad he didn't start flirting with Aarvi else the bone-chilling gaze of hers won't take long to ruin the trances others were in.

David Beckham just smiled, shaking his head seeing the protective behavior of Esme. He was leaving when he saw the wristwatch on the ground, "Miss, your wristwatch." He said and grabbed the black bracelet of the watch.

Well versed in the branded stuff, he identified the watch without looking at the dial. Chanel J12 Watch, in a black highly-resistant ceramic and steel case with diamond indicators in the dial. He understood she wasn't someone he should mess with especially after seeing her drop the watch despite knowing the price of it.

Aarvi didn't bother to look at his face, She held the other end of the bracelet strap of the watch taking it away from his fingers uttering unemotionally, "Thank you."

David Beckham's lips opened and closed like a goldfish in the bowl. He couldn't believe she was the same girl who looked happy for the character. Such a contrast!

He didn't dare to hover around her while his assistant was jelly hoping he doesn't start anything stupid and get screwed by Aeon Harmon.

Aarvi's eyes wandered in the hall and saw the Shadow team head. He nodded at her once her eyes fell on him who was at the inconspicuous location.

Her main goal for visiting the filming set - Checked.

As he appeared for a split second, The Shadow team head vanished behind the things holding the pen drive in his hand.

He was really curious to check it but respected her privacy and confidentiality for assigning the job trusting them so he placed the pen drive in her car secret compartment.

Whereas the assistant director who was ordered to give the pen drive kept an eye on the people who were on the filming set. He really wanted to know who the person was ordering him to do things in the favor of the help they had done to him.

But saw none moving to the location where he had placed the pen drive so he could only sigh a breath of relief for paying back to those benefactors in some way. Little did he know, he got the help in the past so that he could help that benefactor now.

All were smiling how beautifully the lady had portrayed the role but Mia's shrill voice brought the frown on their face and some waited for the juicy drama.

"How do you know so much about the character? Aeon, what if she stole the story for somebody and put on an act?"

But what she earned was a soft and melodic chuckle from Aarvi but Mia felt her hair rise and saw Aeon's amusement change to scowl looking at her.

Aeon crossed his arms on his chest and spoke, "Mia Craft, she read the draft only once, and what about you? This is the scene we have to shoot now, instead of accepting your mistake, you are throwing dirt on her. Apologize, right now."

His voice was loud enough to be audible to all and commanding enough to get everyone's attention.

Mia was flabbergasted hearing him, especially in front of so many. It was truly insulting for her, whether as his girlfriend or as an A-list artist. Her eyes moistened, gazing at everyone having a mocking gaze at her.

Her pride wasn't allowing her to bow down but she wasn't ready to anger Aeon either. 

Aarvi wore her watch and saw the time. It was five in the evening and she was planning to cook for Aaron so she spoke firmly. "Never mind. I have no time to waste on her. I just improvised her version, probably she can do better than me now."

Aarvi didn't want to waste any time or resources on Mia whose life and career are already in jeopardy due to Leon Harmon. And She knew even if Mia forgets the tits and bits of the character, Aeon will remind Mia till she perfects and molds herself to satisfy the director hence Aarvi wasn't bothered about the movie.

Aarvi chose to be there and let Mia do as she wanted because of her purpose for the day, she used the unexpected event to keep everyone's attention on her while the Shadow team completed her work as she had instructed prior.

Esme spoke after her, "I will send you off."

Aarvi nodded and walked out with Esme while Aeon warned and chided Mia some more before he could lose his cool and throw her out. Of course, he kept his voice down this time.

---

After exiting the set, Aarvi was ready to bid Esme ignoring the seduction part. However, Esme still picked the topic, "Coming back to learning the seduction. Are you really not going to tell me who you are going to seduce?"

Aarvi had to walk with Esme to stroll for some fresh air. She glanced at Esme but didn't speak. She was sure Esme was smart enough to understand why she was asking.

Esme giggled seeing Aarvi's poker face and spoke, "Actually there is nothing to learn, they are instinctive. If you think they aren't working, let's classify."

'Classify?' Aarvi misunderstood as there are different types of seduction, 'Holy god!' Aarvi thought as she hummed for her to continue.

Esme and Aarvi entered the park that was mainly used for shooting yet maintained better than the general parks found in the city. There were a kids' play area and a jogging or walking path with beautifully maintained grassland and the different kinds of plants and trees. The dusky sky and dim light with the fresh air relaxed both women as they walked.

"Let's say it's a man who may or may not be in love with somebody else. We could divide them as two, one who gets swayed and one who doesn't."

Aaron doesn't belong to any of the cases. He doesn't love anybody else but Aarvi. However, Aarvi continued to hear Esme.

Esme gave her the analysis as per understanding and also with respect to the acting. Before she teasingly said, "If you are talking about yourself and seducing President Rivas yet he doesn't react to you, then there are two reasons."

Esme chuckled when Aarvi became too attentive to hear her as soon as she derived the fact. She pulled Aarvi near and whispered the rest before standing back and grinning at her. "It works." 

Aarvi didn't want to try seducing Aaron anymore. So she just said, "Oh"

Esme somehow knew Aarvi was never in a relationship so she could guess she was embarrassed to voice anything so she chuckled without troubling her and shifted the topic.

Aarvi and Esme were leaving the park when Aeon Harmon hurriedly reached thereafter knowing Aarvi hadn't left yet. Esme was quick to understand so she bid Aarvi and went inside.

"Ms. Evans, five minutes," Aeon asked in hesitation.

Aarvi again checked the time and nodded in affirmation. 

Both walked towards the parking lot as Aeon spoke sincerely, "I might sound odd but I failed to stop myself from asking. Are you from theater education? Are you interested in acting?"

Aarvi had expected it. "Nope, I am not interested." She cleared out she wasn't interested without letting the topic build and take her time.

Aeon didn't let her leave. Witnessing her seamless and mind-blowing acting, Aeon hoped to dazzle such talent in the entertainment world.

He tried to patiently coax her, "President Evans, I know you are busy with Skylar and its projects. If you are passionate, you shouldn't drop it. You can manage schedules and pursue this." 

Aarvi wanted to turn down saying she isn't only interested, it wasn't her dream or passion but a man yawned standing up from the ground from the other side of the bush. 

Aeon regretted addressing Aarvi as president Evans and mentioning Skylar in the process that kept her identity at risk. He noticed the man's eyes fixed on Aarvi's dainty face.

'Didn't he leave? Why is he still here?' Aeon thought as he started thinking about how to handle the man.
