Again Marriage 370
Chapter 370
“Killing someone in Huthailia? You’ve got some nerve,” he said coldly,
Huthailia jobs were the hardest to pull off. That’s why the payout was so high.
White Fox’s lips parted hesitantly, her eyes clouded with conflict, “I did take the contract and tailed the target for a few days, but.. they didn’t deserie la
die.”
“Boss, I won’t take action. Even if I did, there’s no escaping. There are surveillance cameras everywhere. You have my word.”
“I wouldn’t have come to Kanit City if it weren’t for you,” White Fox grumbled.
At those words, Aria’s suspicions eased somewhat.
White Fox suddenly remembered something and turned to her. “By the way, Boss, you’d better stay away from Russell and Olivia. After all…”
After all, Sara got caught up in her mess and died because of it.
White Fox left the last part unsaid, but Aria understood perfectly.
Aria replied, “Rest assured, I know what I’m doing.”
Vanessa was still waiting for her, so Aria didn’t linger. “I’ll head over first. Let me know if you need anything.”
White Fox grinned widely. “Sure…”
As Aria turned to leave, White Fox watched her retreating figure, her grin fading as her eyes clouded with worry and solemnity.
The studio complex had its own hotel, where Aria and Vanessa shared a room.
Once everyone had settled in, they headed straight to the set when the call came.
The woods surrounding the studio complex served as the primary filming location for this production.
The crew bustled about setting up equipment while the actors got familiar with the set and ran lines.
When filming started, the director took Vanessa’s bag from Aria and passed it to his assistant. “I’ll take care of Vanessa from here. Why don’t you go somewhere to relax?”
The director noticed yesterday that whenever Aria was present, Vanessa would easily break character during filming.
Vanessa wasn’t a formally trained actress. She started out as a pop idol and was still new to acting. She still needed time to become a professional
-actress.

The director was strict, and Russell was even stricter. He didn’t allow a single flaw.
Vanessa was a gifted actress, but her inexperience left her easily distracted by what was happening around her.
The director planned to help her overcome this distraction issue through a step–by–step approach.
Luckily, the assistant director happened to be a woman and could temporarily fill in for Aria as Vanessa’s assistant during filming.
Aria smiled at the assistant director. “Thanks, I’ll leave it to you.”
The assistant director waved her hand dismissively. “No trouble at all!”
Aria had showered her with gifts, all high–end designer brands.

Chapter 370
Not to mention just being a temporary assistant during the shoot, she would’ve been happy aven acting like a nanity.
The cast members were prohibited from taking on other jobs, and no fan visits were permitted. The shooting schedule strictly adhered to predos requirements, requiring no coordination from Aria.
Being Vanessa’s assistant was a pretty easy gig for Aria.
Aria had just settled into a shady spot when, out of nowhere, a hefty duffel bag came slamming
into her lap.
A sharp metallic clatter came from the bag as something pointed jabbed painfully into her kneecap.
Aria’s eyes turned ice–cold in an instant.
“Ms. Saxon, you’re not here to lounge around,” Russell ordered coldly. “Since you’ve got nothing better to do, hold onto my bag. If anything in it gets damaged, you’ll pay for it.”
The crew froze mid–task at the sight, exchanging knowing
aces with those nearby as they inched closer without making a sound.
Noticing the tension, a crew member rushed to alert the director.
The director had specifically instructed him to keep an eye on Russell and Aria, and to alert him at the first sign of trouble.
One of the extras leaned in and whispered curiously, “What’s in the bag? That clinking sound… don’t tell me it’s actual gold?”
“Who brings actual gold to work, anyway? That’s not even the point. The real story is, Mr. Nicholson was just looking for an excuse to talk to Aria, and he deliberately made her hold his stuff.”
“The hot guy and gorgeous girl’s chemistry was totally shippable.”
“This shift was totally worth it. We’re witnessing the big boss chasing after a girl.”
But in reality…
They locked eyes in a battle of wills, neither yielding an inch, the air between them crackling with tension.
