Chapter: 309
The others greeted Tyrone too.
"Quite surprising to see you all here. Are you here to see Galilea too?"
"Yes. I'm going out for a walk. Please, make yourselves comfortable but don't tire her out too much." After leaving his words hanging in the air, Tyrone Left them in the ward, stepping out into the hallway.
Awhile later, he estimated the visitors must have left and decided to return to the ward.
Passing by a corner, he overheard a conversation between the producer and Bradley.
“Wasn't you present during the incident? It wasn't that grave, right?"
Bradley cast his mind back to the event. "As the fire broke out, chaos ensued, but the situation was quickly under control. The fire didn't escalate. I distinctly remember her being pulled out with only her left trouser burned. I didn't notice any physical harm, but perhaps I missed it."
"I believe you didn't miss anything. I received similar accounts, her clothing barely suffered any damage so the injury can't be severe.
Agents are prone to overdramatize. If word of this gets out, Galilea's fans will be furious. She has a knack for playing the damsel in distress. I've warned her about this..."
In the producer's view, the exaggeration of Galilea's injury was a publicity stunt, a method to garner sympathy and elevate her role's significance in the play.
The crew felt helpless.
Cloudwater Town, a novel adaptation centered on Aaron Griffin, Bradley's character, was the essence of the play, hence Aaron held the crucial role.
“Regardless of her motives, the fact remains that she got hurt. We've all failed in ensuring her safety. Chains mentioned we must be supportive as we can be," Bradley retorted.
“It only means we'll have to push back the shoot."
"It's not a big deal."
"I heard Mr. Blakely kept vigil here all night. It appears he is genuinely concerned for Galilea."
"Quite unusual."
The conversation halted when the others joined them and they left the hospital.
Watching their retreating figures, Tyrone fell deep into thought.
What Bradley said contradicted completely with what Julia had told him.
