Chapter 592 - 591: Casting for the New Drama
His gaze suddenly darkened, and his whole demeanor exuded an air of ’keep away from strangers,’ as a commanding tone rang out: "You’re not allowed to go.""Why?" Was he going to control her going to the film crew too? Wasn’t it agreed that she’d have freedom and they wouldn’t interfere with each other? So why was he suddenly getting involved with her affairs now!
"You want to know?"
His voice was calm, seemingly without any ripples, yet slightly husky...
"Of course, I do." The Crown Prince really had a strange temper.
She bit her lip and looked at him. The man, with a lazy posture, holding a document in his hand, exuded a natural regal aura. Even without anger, he was imposing, keeping strangers at bay.
"It’s raining today." He set the document aside, his eyes carrying a hint of mischief, "So... have a good sleep today."
She returned just past midnight last night, and being pregnant, she definitely hadn’t slept well.
Eva Nightingale looked outside the villa; the rain was light—it wouldn’t affect anything!
She said nothing, took out her phone and called Carla Carr, chatted for a while, and learned that she had been kidnapped last night too... Fortunately, Alexander Kingsley appeared in time to rescue her.
Eva entered the villa, complying with his wish: "Crown Prince, then today... I won’t go to the crew." I’ll go tomorrow; someone from the company will handle the arrangements.
"Okay." Lucas Knight responded without looking up, then lowered his gaze back to the document.

Eva went upstairs, took off her long dress, and changed into sleepwear.
Her phone rang; it was Bell calling.
"Hey, Bell, is there something up?"
Bell’s voice came from the other side of the phone: "Miss Nightingale, the female lead for the crew is settled, but it seems there’s a problem with the male lead. I went to invite Actor Dunn, and he said you must personally invite him." After all, Brett Dunn had helped Eva Nightingale in the entertainment industry quite a bit back then, before she even knew Lucas Knight, so they were friends considering.
Eva Nightingale actually wished to avoid any unnecessary interaction with him.
She had deliberately been avoiding him before.
Eva Nightingale paused for two seconds: "Let Young Master Edward decide." Eva had her own ideas and didn’t plan to invite Brett Dunn. When he announced his retirement, he surely had his reasons, and Eva didn’t intend to force him.
Director Liu Yi of the crew is also quite a formidable figure. His acting skills are impeccable, but his image is a bit off, not quite fitting the character. It indeed was a tricky problem.
If a film’s male lead isn’t right, it would certainly be a failure.
Brett Dunn fits the character, but he retired, leaving Eva with no choice but to let Edward White handle it all?
Sovereign Capital has been raining often recently.
The day passed just like that.
In the evening, Eva Nightingale took a shower as usual, then came out wearing sleepwear.
She poured a glass of lemonade; after drinking half of it, she went to bed.
Turning from side to side, she couldn’t fall asleep.
She simply turned off the lights—it must’ve been that they were too bright...
Who knew, after turning off the lights, she still felt restless, always feeling something missing.
Lucas Knight was in the room next door, reviewing documents. Staying up late wasn’t anything unusual for him.
He was similar to yet different from his primary personality.
In the past, he was a workaholic, but tonight he felt a disturbance while holding the documents.
Simply putting the documents aside, he opened the door and stepped out, remembering she said she’d keep him company at night.
"Click." The door opened, revealing her small figure.
Was she waiting outside his door?
"Uh, I just was passing by..." She immediately tried to cover with excuses, "After all, this is my home—I was just passing by... and wanted to ask if you’re comfortable sleeping tonight."
