Chapter 554: Filming Work
Nora Northwood was in utter distress.
Originally, her actions in Jasper Sinclair’s eyes were nothing more than spite; in an instant, she realized the unbridgeable chasm between them.
She pushed him away, readjusted her breathing and expression, and when she opened her eyes again, they were clear and bright.
"Mr. Sinclair, I always thought I made myself very clear."
Their eyes met, Jasper Sinclair’s thin lips moved slightly, but no sound came out.
Under his gaze, Nora Northwood pushed open the heavy door.
The incandescent light slowly shifted, illuminating the artificial passageway once more, and the man’s eyelashes were cast into a small fan-shaped shadow.
The energy accumulated within him had been exhausted, and he plunged into deep self-doubt.
Was it really his fault?
It seemed necessary to make another trip to Melbourne before the end of the year.
...
At 4:30 in the morning on a certain day off, Nora Northwood climbed out of bed with difficulty.
An Alphard was already waiting respectfully in front of the small mansion, today they were heading to Eastmoor for a winter collection shoot, wearing Nathan Lewis’s designs.
This was what the other party referred to as "solutions are always more than problems," saving on shooting costs in a roundabout way.
Nora only brought herself and her mind, planning to catch a bit more sleep in the nanny van.
The closer they got to Eastmoor, the more apparent the humidity in the air became.
The stylists in the same car exchanged glances and decided to wake Nora.
If they did her makeup upon arrival at Eastmoor, it might slow down the process and miss the prime shooting time.
Nora was woken up, her brow furrowed, a touch of morning grumpiness lingering.
However, this was part of her job, and she could only muster all her energy; unconsciously, her expression became much livelier.
The highway ahead stretched on endlessly, as Nora let the makeup artist dab and brush her face.
After about half an hour, the scenery on both sides of the street began to change, no longer just barren roads and untrimmed branches.
As they were about to get out of the car, the stylist completed the final touches, breathing a sigh of relief: "Miss Northwood’s skin is better than many celebrities’, truly enviable!"
Another stylist chimed in, "The powder is light, showing off your beauty to the fullest extent."
Saying this, they handed over a mirror.
Nora glanced at her reflection, acknowledging the stylist’s skills.
Her appearance was stunning, with skin smooth as cream.
Her face wasn’t heavily made up, just a simple contouring using shadow and highlighter to better present her bone structure in front of the camera.
After all, today’s focus was on fragrance and jewelry, not the person.
Suddenly, she recalled her nickname given by netizens: The Aromatherapy Muse.
Alas, no matter how good one’s looks, they can’t guarantee a perfect relationship.
The shooting location had already been set up, and the driver and stylists got out of the car, leaving the space for Nora alone.
"Miss Northwood, this is the outfit for the shoot, we kindly ask for your patience to change in the car."
Nora wasn’t fussy, she just asked everyone to keep watch in front of the car for a few minutes.
The location was by the shore, and from there the coastline was visible not far away.
Nora quickly changed into her new outfit, a cinched-waist long dress in muted tones.
From the nanny van, it was only a dozen meters to the set, but she walked with poise, spotting some familiar faces, including Lily Sloan and Megan Underwood.
Then, she saw the director of the shoot.
Nora’s back was slender and delicate, especially the proportion between her waist and hips, with not an ounce of excess fat on her body.
