Behind The Spotlight Chapter 77
Lawrence woke up from an amazing and deeply satisfying sleep. He opened his eyes and found Ellie Bridget next to him. She was sleeping naked under the sheet they shared.
Lawrence gently smiled, a mix of disbelief and warmth on his face as he stared at the actress.
Last night, they had a party to celebrate the completion of every island scene scheduled in Bora Bora. The production still had a few scenes left to film, but those would be shot in the United States.
Furthermore, all of Jacky's scenes had been completed and finalized. That meant Lawrence had no more scenes left to shoot. No more late-night shoots or exhausting days under the tropical sun. He was free. Naturally, Lawrence was happy about that.
Since it was the final filming day in Bora Bora, the production team decided to throw a party. The cast and crew drank, ate, and had fun without any reservations. Producer Balthazar Harper and Kayla Martin disappeared not long after the party began and never returned. The two probably fucked somewhere.
Lawrence and the cast felt like Producer Harper had spent most of his time doing nothing work-related and just enjoyed himself on the island. Especially whenever Kayla had no scenes to film, the producer would always invite her to go "sightseeing" around the island.
Everyone knew what was going on behind the scenes, but no one confronted them. After all, both Balthazar and Kayla were adults who could do whatever they wanted. But the noticeable age gap between them made things feel a little questionable.
The one who handled most of the work and carried the burden of leadership was Director Thomas Summerbelt. Eventually, he realized the real reason why Producer Harper had given him full authority early in the project: the producer never intended to work at all. He spent most of his days playing around with women in bikinis.
