Chapter 259
“Bloody hell….”
Naomi felt terrible. She quickly picked up the phone. Then, after blowing it dry with a hairdryer and wiping it with a towel, she tried to turn it on. However, Naomi finally gave up after trying to turn it on more than ten times. She found a phone repair kit from the toolbox and opened her phone up.
Sure enough, the motherboard had short-circuited. At a certain phone repair shop, the legendary owner shrugged helplessly. “Miss, your phone has already gone out of production. On top of that, Mericah has been crushing our phone industry. You can’t get this motherboard or any spare parts in this country.
“You don’t have any stock either?”
Naomi raised her eyebrow in surprise. Her phone had many important things saved on it. She could not just give it up just like that.
“Even the phone manufacturers don’t have any stock unless you buy it from abroad.”
“Okay.”
Naomi sighed. She decided to buy a new phone and reinstall all her applications. All her previous messages were gone! Looking at the bleak world outside, Naomi sighed.
She quickly contacted Nine with her phone. She took a photo of her old phone and sent it over.
[Lord G: Nine, help me get a motherboard.]
(Nine: No worries. It’ll be there in three days. Also, the thing where you asked me to help you with the computer is done.)
Looking at that message, Naomi was so delighted she almost jumped!
Previously at Sky Tower, she was forced to destroy her computer. Then, she got Nine to assemble a new one for her. She saw a high-tech computer, but it was out of stock. She never expected that Nine would manage to snag one for her!
[Nine: Right. It’s been sent to your old place.]
Old place? Was that not the Green Residence?
Naomi’s thoughts were all about the new computer. She quickly rushed back to the Green Residence and found the package that Nine mentioned.
That night, Naomi was engrossed in her new high-tech toy. She never picked up her new phone even once.
The next morning, Naomi bought a few boxes of Susan’s favorite foods, cake, and fried chicken and drove to the film set.
She had previously discussed with Robin that they would meet directly at the set.
When she reached the set, Naomi shared the food with everyone. The director was in a good mood and gave everyone half an hour to rest.
Susan was happily munching on her fried chicken while raising her thumbs to Naomi.
“I’m so blessed to have you as a friend.”
Naomi scratched her head embarrassedly.
“I didn’t bring anything for you the last time and even made you listen to my problems. This time, it’s repayment. I’ll let you eat as much as you want!”
Susan nodded before asking, “Oh, how are you and Jack right now?”
“It’s just like back to the beginning. We remain the same,” Naomi sighed.
At the mention of Jack, Naomi furrowed her brows a little. He had been gone for two days without sending her a message once.
At that moment, the dressing room door slammed open. The casting director yelled anxiously, “The actor who plays Lady Thirteen has a stomach ache and can’t go on! Which one of you can replace her?”
The entire dressing room was silent.
Naomi furrowed her brows strangely and asked Susan in a suppressed tone, “Isn’t this a good opportunity? Why is no one taking it?” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
“Because Lady Thirteen has many fighting scenes but not much screen time that shows her face. It’s a tough character. Why would anyone do it? If we can’t find anyone to do it, my part will be delayed until after midnight again…”
Susan sighed and lamented as she slumped on the chair hopelessly. Naomi could not bear to see her best friend so tired, so she said, “I do know how to fight a little. Do you want me to step in temporarily?” “Are you really willing to do it?” Susan immediately revived. She hugged Naomi’s shoulders, and her eyes sparkled.
