Chapter 121: Chapter 121 - Making Enemies at the After-Party
While Darius was tying up Aurora, the rest of the actors and actresses were arriving at the after party and every single one of them were talking about the same exact thing.
They were talking about the phenomenon that Darius Coleman was.
"Did you see just how great he was? From the very first take all the way to the end. He didn't even make a mistake once!" One of the actors said.
Most of them were glazing Darius, but there were being truthful to themselves. The acting he had put on was some of the greatest they had seen in their entire life, and this was only his first movie.
They knew the luck they had to see such an actor in his debut, and some of the people present had a lot of ideas in their mind about how to get close to Darius.
Most of the actresses had similar ideas and they weren't shying away from talking about it in between girls. However, the conversations they were having were extremely annoying for Clara to hear.
"I saw him looking at me earlier a few times, he even smiled at me. I'm telling you girls, he likes me!"
Another actress shook her head. "What are you talking about?! We had so many eye contacts today, I'm sure he wants me!"
All of them were fighting over Darius, having no idea that right now he was currently having fun with the female lead of the movie. However, even if they knew, most of them wouldn't even care. After all, with Darius's talent, they knew that they would be able to rise to the top in a matter of days.
The amount of connections Darius would have in the future was worth marrying. However, it wasn't even like Darius was ugly, he was really, really hot, which made him that desirable for all the actresses who had seen him today.
But out of all the actresses in this room, Clara wasn't too worried about any of them as Darius wouldn't be interested in them. They weren't talented enough and they also weren't pretty enough. Clara could tell that none of them could rival with both her and Aurora.
Actually, there was only one person who Clara was worried about in all the actresses present. Someone who could be on the same level of beauty as her, which was scary.
However, luckily for Clara, she was silent and introverted, which was strange for an actress. She was the only one present at the after-party who hadn't yet said a word to literally anyone present. She hadn't said anything.
In fact, Clara didn't even know her name; she just knew that she existed, and as of right now, Clara was looking at her with quite the intensity.
The girl she was talking about was sitting all alone in a corner of the bar. There was no one around her; she had long black hair that covered her eyes, making it absolutely impossible for Clara to see her eyes because they were covered. Nevertheless, even without seeing her eyes, Clara knew that she was a beauty.
The clothes she was wearing, her face, and her body were all that she needed to know that she was probably the prettiest girl in this place after herself, and that ranking might be influenced slightly by Clara's ego.
Nevertheless, Clara had no choice but to look away from the girl as some of her new "friends" started talking to her.
"What about you, Clara? What do you think about him? You even came in the same car as him! Argh, you're so lucky!"
Clara took a deep breath, or else she might have insulted the person standing in front of her right away. However, she controlled herself as best as she possibly could.
"Not only we came in the same car, but I'm sleeping in the same room as him."
Clara didn't care anymore about revealing her relationship with Darius as she thought that it would make those bitches around her stop talking about it. However, never in a million years had she expected it to have the complete opposite. They started talking even more about Darius for some reason.
"Wait! For how long have you known him? Is he dating you? Are you a couple? But what about Aurora? Are they also dating?
Tell us the tea!"
Clara just stared into the abyss as questions kept getting sent her way. She didn't want to talk about Darius and give them more information about him, but after some time, she decided to do it, as they wouldn't let it go. She had tried to dismiss the questions, but things only got worse.
Actually, after thinking it through, she decided to be the one going on the offense.
"All you need to know is that none of you have any chances with him. He's mine, and mine only."
"Ah…are you protecting your man from us? You don't trust him?"
However, once more, things took a turn for the worse.
"Argh, shut up, all of you. You're not even on the same level as him."
After saying that, Clara turned toward the girl who had been talking about how he had given her some eye contact. "He only looked at you because you're so ugly that he couldn't believe you looked like that."
"And he only talked to you because you were fangirling over him. It was out of respect. He even told me afterward that he was annoyed by all of your behavior. So, leave him alone. He doesn't want you guys."
Clara knew that making enemies of the other actresses on the set would make her future a little complicated. However, she didn't care. She was tired of hearing them talking about Darius as if he were some kind of piece of meat that they could eat whenever they wanted.
After insulting them, Clara stood up from the table and headed toward one of the few remaining tables, which was practically empty.
It was the table of the introvert, and she couldn't even see her eyes.
'Ah, whatever. Should I get to know her better? That way, I can keep her away from Darius?' Clara thought, her jealousy showing once more.
With those thoughts in mind, she slowly changed seats and sat right next to the introvert, wanting to know her better.
