Stella was speechless.
‘His words make me feel good, but.." she thought.
"Don't butter me up.Do you think I don't know? You're deliberately causing trouble!"
Keegan countered, "Would you feel indifferent if I were to kiss another woman?" Stella frowned.
At the thought of the scene, she suddenly felt uncomfortable.
However, she still wanted to persuade Keegan.
"Those are two different things! This is my job; everything is fake.
"I know," Keegan lowered his gaze and looked at her.
He continued, "But the fact that my heart aches is real.The fact that I'm upset is also real."
Stella was startled and suddenly could not speak.
Keegan circled his arms around his waist and inched a little closer to her.
Then, he said in a muffled voice, "Must you shoot intimate scenes? Can you not do it?"
Stella yielded to soft approaches rather than forceful ones, so she could not help but relent when sheheard Keegan's tone.
Well...It's not like I have to.Of course, it depends on the script, but directors usually don't like actorswith too many restrictive conditions."
"That means they're not good enough and can only rely on borderline explicit things to get attention."
Stella was speechless.
‘This guy.He's tarring all directors with the same brush" she thought.
"Not all directors are like that.Why can't people shoot intimate scenes in a romance film?"
"Why is it necessary to shoot intimate scenes in a romance film? Didn't you say that novelist S.Y.Jewell's romance novels are all purely romance and have no action, yet you still can't get enough of herwork?"
The corner of Stella's eyes twitched, "How's that the same thing? Besides, do you think she doesn'twant to write some action? She's probably worried her superiors will want to have a word with her."
Keegan said in a low voice, "The same logic applies. I'll admit that my selfishness is a part of it.Still, thepublic always harshly scrutinizes and makes malicious speculations about women in the workforce,especially women like you who stand out appearance- wise.Aside from my mere jealousy, I certainlydon't want you to be labeled."
Stella was startled.
Keegan had brought up the biggest problem with the calmest tone.
‘For an excessively beautiful actress, her intimate scenes and the explicitness of her scenes will alwaysbe more buzz-worthy than her acting.
Even if she wins an award that carries weight, she'll be mocked with words like "XYZ Award hasdeclined.Someone can win an award just by taking off their clothes and moaning".
For instance, if a female employee is promoted too quickly, nobody cares about her efforts and thevalue she has created for the company.
Instead, they care more about the gossip about the men around her.
Once they find "dirt" on her, they'll, without hesitation, attribute her getting her position to her looks anddeny all of her worth" she thought.
Stella looked up and stared at Keegan, "How many parts of it is your selfishness?"
Keegan hesitated momentarily.
Then, he decided to tell the truth.
"Nine out of ten parts."
Stella glanced at him in surprise.
After a while, she finally said, "If your answer just now were anything lower than five parts, I would havededucted 10,000 points."novelbin
Keegan broke out in cold sweat on his back.
‘That was close.I almost went back to square one" he thought.
Naturally, Keegan was more concerned if his persuasion had gotten to her.
"Well, you won't be shooting intimate scenes anymore, right?"
Stella said, "It depends on the situation."
Keegan frowned.
‘I've been talking for so long, and this is the outcome? [ thought my words had gotten through her" hethought.
The truth was, his words had already persuaded her.
‘Keegan said a lot.But ultimately, the words that touched me the most were, "The fact that my heartaches is real. The fact that I'm upset is also real".
Shooting is my job.
My job is important, but it isn't everything.
The feelings of my significant other are really important too.
After all, it's not like I have to shoot intimate scenes; actors can choose their roles.However, he'llprobably get cocky if I say this aloud" she thought.
Stella grabbed the pudding at the side.
She ate it while asking, " Where's Mr.Snyder?"
Keegan was still troubled by her filming intimate scenes, so he said in a depressed tone, "At thewashroom."
Stella froze, "Why'd he go to the washroom again?"
Keegan took his anger out on his bad influence of a friend, "Why else? He has bad kidneys."
Stella was at a loss for words.
