Reborn Through Fire novel Chapter 31

"You okay?"

Kisa did not dare move a muscle, waiting for Howard to blow the dirt out of her eyes. At this moment, she felt the searing eyes around her. She could not help but give Howard a push. "It is all right. If you can't get it out, forget it."

"Don't move. It will be over soon," Howard said, reaching down and gently touching her eyelid. "You see, that is what is stuck to your eye. No wonder you just had a red eye."

Kisa felt embarrassed. Her eyes reddened just now because she had a lump in her throat when she recalled the past. But he did have a lint stuck to his finger. So Kisa smiled politely and thanked him. As she was backing away, she was shocked to see Gilbert standing in front of her with a grave face. After secretly calming herself down, she continued to eat the chicken thigh in her lunchbox with her head lowered, pretending not to see him. She thought he would not find trouble with her in public. Indeed, the man said nothing. He just called the director over.

"Mr. Kooper, what can I do for you?"

Gilbert glanced coldly at Howard and spoke slowly, "Replace this male artist."

"Huh?" The director was startled for a moment.

Kisa also stood up in shock, and because she was in such a hurry, her vision went dark, and she almost fell down again. Fortunately, Howard hurriedly held her up.

Gilbert snorted and stared at her pale face with mockery. 'This woman will pretend in front of every man she meets.'

Kisa could not care less about the dizziness. She was anxious. At first, she thought Gilbert would only find trouble with her, never expecting that it would implicate Howard. Howard had helped her several times. Even if he had not, she could not just let him lose their job for no reason because of her. She gritted her teeth and stared at Gilbert with hatred, suspecting that he was doing this on purpose to make her feel guilty.

The director looked at Gilbert with a confused face. "Mr. Kooper, why do you want to replace him for no reason?"

"As a male artist, he doesn't keep his virtue and openly makes out with his female assistant. If this gets out, won't it affect the reputation of this drama?"

Gilbert said seriously, and the director did not dare to refute but looked in a predicament. "It has been half a month into the shooting. Where should I go to find a replacement actor?"
