Chapter 163 - First Love
Emily woke up in an unfamiliar basement on the day after the proposal. Her limbs were chained on the operating bed.
All around her were sheets of human skins. Some glass bottles even had heads submerged in medicinal liquid.
The handsome Otto was wearing a white lab coat. The medicine rack beside him had syringes and tools for operation sleeping in them.
Otto was a painter that collected the skins of beauties. He was also an insane serial killer. He would speak of his first love to his every target to lure them into his trap of deep love.
Emily was forty-nine in his collection. In other words, he had murdered forty-eight young ladies before Emily.
Sealing their beautiful skins in this secret laboratory eternally, he would look for inspiration from these women.
As he mocked women’s stupidity, he injected the anesthetic that partially numbed Emily. He loved to skin his prey when they were conscious.
However, he could not have his prey struggle. It would affect the strength that he had to use, ruining his aestheticism of skinning them.
Yun Xiangxiang quieted down for a while when she heard the time. “Milles, I hope that you are not troubling yourself because of me.”
July would be when the summer vacation was. She estimated that she would have two months or so of summer vacation. It would be more than enough if everything went well.
Even though Milles was a rising star in the circle of directors, he was not at the stage where he could make any decision.
“Yun, I knew that you are well suited to play Amy when I saw you again during the last film festival.”
Milles sounded relaxed, “However, my first proposal for you to play as Amy was rejected by the company.”
“And now they agreed to it?” Yun Xiangxiang was curious about what made them change their minds.
“Yes. In last week’s fashion show, MonRoe’s designer, Percy, came to Paris. He mentioned you,” Milles was slightly surprised too.
It was not because of personal reasons that he insisted on Yun Xiangxiang playing as Amy. In China, only Yun Xiangxiang’s mesmerizing brown eyes fitted their aesthetics.
Besides, Yun Xiangxiang’s acting skills were recognized. He had some discussion with Yun Xiangxiang before. He thought that Yun Xiangxiang was an actress with great potential.
When Percy mentioned Yun Xiangxiang, he naturally recommended her strongly again. Percy also mentioned about the weekly of “EF” where Yun Xiangxiang was on it.
The company finally relented. He immediately informed Yun Xiangxiang about this. Of course, he went out of his way to look out for Yun Xiangxiang when he set the shooting time.
It was God’s destiny to let him meet Yun Xiangxiang. He thought that he and Yun Xiangxiang were people who needed a chance to shine.
“Thank you, Milles. I will not let you down,” Yun Xiangxiang thanked him earnestly.
