Master of his heart ( Brielle And Max ) novel Chapter 1260

Just half an hour ago, Aubree's agent had sent over her new script, and Andrew had immediately interrupted his meeting, floored the gas pedal, and blown through countless red lights to get to her.

Now, seeing Aubree in pieces, her eyes hollow, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, like needles pricking at his heart. He rushed over, taking Aubree from the hands of a background actor and politely said to John, “She was under the weather last night, and she's not in the best shape for acting today. Let's give her another day to rest.”

John, who had always held Aubree in high regard, nodded immediately upon seeing her condition. "Of course, go get some rest. She's never late, and when she arrived late this morning claiming she was fine, I actually believed her."

"John, can we cut that scene?" Andrew asked.

John looked at Aubree, knowing if she didn't want to do it, he would certainly cut it.

Aubree, nestled in Andrew's arms, her exposed fingertips trembling incessantly, seemed to not hear their conversation at all, just numbly staring into space. Andrew tightened his hug, intending to leave with her, but then she said, "Put me down."

Andrew stiffened, not daring to go against her wishes, and carefully placed her on a nearby chair. John quickly asked, "Aubree, if you don't like that scene, don't force yourself. Shall I cut it?"

Aubree took the water her agent handed her, gulped it down fiercely, then lifted her resolute gaze. "Director, I'm fine. I'll try to control my emotions. I'm sorry, I just got too deep into the character. Thinking about facing that situation for real, I probably couldn't resist like the protagonist."

“Aubree!!” Andrew's voice raised in exasperation, drawing looks from everyone around. He took a deep breath, knelt down on one knee, and took her hand. "We're not doing this scene. It's unnecessary."

But Aubree only looked at John. "John, I'm okay, let's continue."

"Aubree!" Andrew was fuming, his face turning red with anger. Aubree walked towards the alley again. Andrew, shaking with anger, stood up to follow her but Aubree shook off his hand.
