Chapter 2054
Isabel recognized her. She was Teresa, one of the actresses who played one of the good guys on Legend of the
Goddess.
She only had a handful of scenes on the show and they rarely had any scenes together, the point being that she
was not very close with Teresa.
Still, they were all part of the film crew and since Teresa took the initiative to approach her, there was no reason
she should refuse, especially since no rules were saying that she owned this corner over here.
Naturally, she gestured Teresa over. "Sure."
Teresa sat down next to her.
"Isabel, why do you eat the same boxed lunch as the film crew?" Teresa stared perplexedly at the tray of food
Isabel was eating out of.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIsabel responded with another question, "What else am I supposed to eat if not this?"
They were far away from the city and they had many more scenes to shoot, getting to eat anything at all was a
blessing enough.
Teresa remarked, "You're a big shot, I thought you wouldn’t eat something as common as this like the rest of us.
You're more grounded than I thought."
Grounded?
Isabel cast a look at her.
Having been in the entertainment industry for several years, she had developed a skill for reading people overtime.
She could not shake off the feeling that Teresa was trying to sucker up to her.
What explanation was there for her doing this? Apart from the show, they did not have anything to do with each
other.
Isabel considered her response briefly before stating, "You seem pretty humble as well."
Teresa laughed it off. "I wouldn't know, I'm just an ordinary person.''
Then, she managed to branch off into some other topics.
They were mostly trivial talk, nothing that went beyond the realm of common small talk.
Until at one point, she began talking about her personal life. That was when she started to put on a smile full of
intention and asked quite coyly, "Isabel, I’ve been seeing a very handsome guy waiting for you every few nights
whenever we come back from the set. Is that your boyfriend?"
Something gleamed in Isabel’s eyes, she nodded with a brief grunt.
Teresa probed for more details. "He's so handsome, is he a celebrity as well?' "No.” "Is he very rich or famous?"
’No.”
Teresa was taken aback by this. Nevertheless, she continued to ask with a casual smile, "What does he do?”
Isabel cocked an eyebrow at her and eyed her sharply. “Teresa, you seem to be very interested in my boyfriend."
Teresa stammered for a second and quickly clarified, "Please don’t get the wrong idea, I was just curious what kind
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmof man you considered worthy enough for you to date."
Isabel answered candidly, "Anyone that I like is someone I can consider worthy of being in a relationship with."
Teresa chuckled dryly. ’ You're so special."
Isabel took a bottle of water from Carla and drank, she did not bother to respond.
Teresa must have sensed that Isabel was losing interest in their conversation. With that, she excused herself. "I'm
full, I guess I’ll see you, I have another scene to shoot later."
She got up and left.
Carla leaned over and asked, "Is it me or is Teresa a little weird?'' "What’s weird about her?" "You hardly know her.
Why is she suddenly approaching you to talk about your boyfriend?'
It looked like Carla sniffed out Teresa's intention as well.
Isabel could immediately tell that Teresa wanted her to reveal Roland’s identity.
What benefit could she probably gain from finding out about Roland's identity?
No matter who Roland was, she did not see how it could be relevant for Teresa.
After Teresa finished her chat with Isabel, she walked to the car parked outside the film set.
She jammed the boxed lunch that she had only taken a few bites out of into the trash can and ordered her
assistant, "Go get me something that qualifies as food."
