Chapter 110 Drama and Spy games
Luke frowns but didn’t say a word.
Jenny thinks that he is angry and becomes anxious, she stammers, “I’ll go now…”
“No need, sit down.”
After he says, he lifts the blanket and got off the bed. He plugs the plug next to the bed and tests the
temperature of the hairdryer. He looks at Jenny and pats the bed, “Come over.”
His voice is gentle like the night. Though it isn’t as soft as the moonlight, it isn’t as cold as the
moonlight. It is just nice.
When he says to go over, it feels like he is asking her to take her entire life and heart and bring it into
his embrace.
The pleasant fragrance of shampoo lingers in the air. Jenny isn’t tall. Normally when she stands in front
of him she will have to raise her head to barely look at him clearly. In the dim lights, his breathing is
beside her ears, it mixes with the warm air from the hairdryer and her fluttering hair. All these sensually
brush against her delicate skin.
“You didn’t tell me that you’ll be back today.”
“Will you pick me up at the airport if I had told you?”
When he speaks, there is a hint of mint in the air.
Jenny lowers her head to hide her blushing cheeks, “Even if I didn’t pick you up, someone else would.”
No one informed her about Luke’s return but Sky was able to find out every detail of it. Even which
flight he was on. She sent him back to the office and then went to visit his grandmother. If she gets any
further, she would be living in the Flower house!
“I didn’t tell anyone about my return trip. If my guess is correct, Sky found out from my mother.”
When she hears this, Jenny has a bad feeling.
“Sky’s relationship with your mother is so good?”
“Her parents left the country soon after she was born. For some reason she lived with my mother for
then years, thereafter she went overseas with her grandfather.”
“Ten years” Jenny remarks. That’s a long time to spend together.
She becomes curious at this point. “You spent so much time together with her, why didn’t you develop
a relationship which is beyond brothers and sisters?”
“I stayed at the military academy hostel from the age of three. Every day we had to train and there was
very little time for rest. We only met during the weekends and holidays. You should cut down on
watching soap dramas.”
The last statement was very transparent and honest.
“Where do I have the time to watch soap dramas… I only read the script.”
“Looks like I have to tell Shawn to reduce giving you soap drama scripts.”
“Not soap dramas… recently I received a Spy games script…”
“Oh?” Luke raises his eyebrows, turns, and looks at her, “Can I have a look?”
Jenny immediately gets off bed and tips toes to her bag. She pulls out a wrinkled script, “I’ve read it, it’s
pretty good, Shawn is negotiating the price for me.”
“Cougar danger zone”
The names are printed on the script.
Luke takes it over and flips a few pages doubtfully.
This is the first time he sees this girl read a script so thoroughly.
From the first page, there are red, blue, green ink marks jotting down thoughts. It was packed with
handwritten notes and even reminders to condition the mood during the film production.
“You drew these?” Luke said in surprise.
Jenny nods, “I’m not done with it but almost. Though the cost of production isn’t high, the storyline is
pretty good.”
“Lead actress?”
“The supporting actress.” She raises two fingers and smiles, “My level hasn’t reached that of a lead
actress. I’ve seen this script, there are a lot of supporting actresses.” This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
“It’s not bad although there are several logic loopholes.”
“Logic loopholes?”
“For example, there is this scene, the supporting actress is supposed to save her best friend and she
goes to destroy the enemy’s watchtower. This is a huge logic loophole.”
“You mean that the supporting actress can’t do it by herself?”
“No, I feel that the supporting actress shouldn’t risk herself at this point.”
Jenny holds her forehead…
Brother, this is the requirement of the scene, the supporting actress and the lead actress fell in love
with the same man. If the supporting actress doesn’t die, then don’t tell me they will develop into
friends? This is a spy game thriller and not a love story.
“Furthermore, the audience can guess that this happens. It is too ordinary.”
“Then according to your thoughts, how should this script be written?”
“In order to maintain the main plot, the army unit should give up on saving the lead actress and
continue with the mission.”
“Then what happens to the lead actress?”
“The enemy finds out that the lead actress doesn’t have any value and kills her.”
“Kill her? She’s the lead actress!”
“This is where it is fresh and different. The audience will not expect it. This is a Spy games thriller, there
is no need for the hero complex. The unit should consider the bigger picture and not the rescue.”
Jenny smirks, this is logical! Not a single flaw in the logic.
If Luke is to be the screenwriter, he would have killed all the budding actresses. Thereafter, threatening
letters will be sent from all over the country.
“You fantasize all you want, you’re not the scriptwriter anyway. I’ll just study my script.”
She takes the script from Luke’s hands and turns to the page which she bookmarked. She picks up a
pen and begins scribbling down her thoughts.
“Have they decided on the lead actress?”
“Not yet.” Jenny just replied and then realizes something, frowns and says, “Don’t interfere, I think that
supporting actress is rather good.”
Luke smirks and reveals a non-committal look. He picks up an unfinished book, turns to the
bookmarked page, and read. Both of them are engrossed in their fictitious world.
Jenny reads the script for a while before remembering that she didn’t ask him about the pregnancy. It is
starting to be obvious that she is pregnant and her mother in law has been asking. She has been
wearing loose clothing to hide her pregnancy bump. But after a while longer, she won’t be able to hide
it anymore. How is she going to explain it to her?
She starts to frown.
Luke finishes the book, closes it, and places it aside. He notices that she is frowning and he also
frowns and asks, “What’s up?”
Jenny comes to her senses when she hears him ask. She shakes her head, “Nothing, I’m tired from
reading the script.”
