The sky gradually turned dark.
Luna finally finished filming today's snow scene and walked into the sitting room, still cloaked in cold air.
There was a round table in the middle of the room, and in the middle of the round table, there was a pot of broth. The broth was piping hot. It was filled with various ingredients and smelled absolutely enticing.
Around the broth, there were a wholesome lot of dishes.
There were roasted chicken, cured meat, mutton rolls, beef rolls, sashimi, stir-fried vegetable dishes...
The film director Tommy and screenwriter Mose rubbed their hands and ran over to the round table excitedly. "To be able to dig into Mr. Donovan's cooking after work is indeed one of the greatest enjoyment in the world," The two men commended.
Jaden smiled. He scooped a bowl of rich creamy radish soup and placed it in front of Luna. "Miss Carter, enjoy."
Luna resisted the urge to wolf down the food and took the soup bowl in a refined manner. "Thank you," she responded.
She picked up the spoon and gracefully finished the bowl of soup. She felt the warmth in her tummy. The nippy feeling she had when she just got to the sitting room had dissipated.
Jaden poured wine for Tommy and Mose. "The weather forecast says that it'll snow again tomorrow and it'll be heavier than today. If everything goes smoothly, you should be able to finish filming the snow scene tomorrow.
"If there's nothing out of the norm tomorrow, I'll return to Kitmore City in the afternoon."
Mose stroked his beard and said, "I can finally go home for Christmas. I miss my grandson so much."
Tommy smiled and said, "We'll work harder tonight and finish filming the night scene tonight. I believe that Luna's fine with it. Let's go back together tomorrow afternoon."
Luna had a smile on her face, but she could feel a pinch of voidness in her heart.
She would only resume work after New Year. Without the food Jaden made for so many days, she would probably lose a few pounds again.
Just as she dwelled on the thought, her phone rang.
When she saw the caller ID, her scalp tightened and she groaned in her head.
'I really don't want to answer this call, but I can't.'
Luna smiled and picked up her phone. "I'm going to take a call."
She ran upstairs and lowered her voice. "Mom, I'm filming. What's the matter?"
"What else could it be?" her mother complained. "It's Christmas Eve in three days. The whole family is back, and you're the only one missing. When are you coming back?"
Luna held her forehead and said, "Kitmore City has just snowed. I still have tens of scenes to film. I can't go back until I'm done-"
"Really, it is worth going through so much trouble just to film a movie?" Her mother sighed. "It's not that I don't support you in taking up an acting career, but you've been acting for more than ten years. You've already won international and domestic awards and have all the honor you deserve. Since your career is on its decline, you should let it go."
"Mom, didn't we agree?" Luna suppressed her frustration and depression and said patiently, "After this movie, if I still can't make a comeback, I'll leave the filming industry forever. On the contrary, if I get to new heights, you and the rest of the family will continue to support me in my acting career.
"Actually, can we not talk about this for the time being?"
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about the blind date." Luna's mom switched the topic.
"I've already spoken to a few young gentlemen. They're pretty solid in all aspects and have good characters. You must meet them all when you come back this time.
"I don't believe that none of the good men I've carefully chosen are worthy of your attention."
Luna felt like banging her head against the wall. "Mom, I'm focused on acting, and you're here forcing me to go on a blind date. This will affect my state of mind."
"What do you mean by forcing you?" Luna's mother raised her voice. "You're almost thirty. Isn't it only natural to get married at this age?
"Listen to me. Thirty years old is a big hurdle for women, both in their careers and in their relationships. After thirty, actresses will lose their competitiveness, and it's the same in the marriage market."
