Chapter 142 I'm Just an Employee Abigail looked at him in surprise, but she shifted her gaze forward soon after that. "Oh, well, it has nothing to do with me," she replied impassively. Even if there were still emotions in her heart, these emotions would always fade away after spreading. She calmly accepted that she couldn't immediately let go of the three years she had devoted herself to Sean.

After hearing her reply, Anthony instantly wore a satisfied expression. "That's true." Upon entering the film set, she immediately becbusy, taking measurements of everyone from the helpers to the leading actors and even the seasoned actors. Of course, she had to match the leading actors' costumes to their skin tones, temperaments, appearances, and makeup. After more than a month of hard work, L.Moon completed the basic costumes, except for the ones planned for the very end of the production.

After the filming started, she mostly stayed in the hotel arranged by the film crew.

One morning, she planned to help Laura Martin, the leading actress, with her costumes. Just as she was about to enter Laura's private dressing room, she heard the woman's arrogant voice coming from the inside. "What kind of costumes are these? They're so gaudy and in garish colors. They look awful!" Hensey Lockheart, her assistant, chimed in, "I heard they looked up a lot of references and even consulted sprofessors, and yet they ended up designing this heap of ugly stuff, talking about clothing invasion by foreign cultures. Smale characters would even bare their chests in the middle of production. What a disgusting sight it'll be!" Laura sounded displeased. "I heard my makeup is going to look like that of a hostess, and it's her who suggested it to the stylist based on the costumes. It's really ugly. In my last fantasy , the costumes and jewelry were as gorgeous as they could be. But here, she hasdressed up like this!" "They say Alana handpicked her, but I heard she's close to Mr. Booker, who got her connected with Director Lewis. I guess the director is unhappy about it, but he probably doesn't dare to say anything," Hensey muttered.

Abigail quietly took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

Hensey cto open it. Seeing it was Abigail, he immediately greeted her with feigned enthusiasm. "Miss Quinn, you're here so early." Abigail nodded before walking into the dressing room.

The moment Laura saw her, she rolled her eyes and stood up. Glaring at her, she warned, "If you don't know how to match costumes, don't do it. Are you inserting your own ideas? If that hostess- like makeup gets aired on TV, the entire show will be condemned by netizens until it goes off the air!" "You may talk to Director Lewis about it," Abigail replied flatly while walking toward the rack of costumes.

Lewis' screenplay depicted foreign powers' invasion of Central Plains, showcasing a stark contrast between traditional attire in the southern region and the clothing in the northern region, which were gradually influenced by foreign cultures. Laura's character initially lived in the southern.

region. Still, the scenes featuring traditional attire would only be completed near the end of production, so the traditional costumes were still in production.

After the collision between the northern and foreign attire, the colors and styles of the clothing becextremely mixed. Addionally, speculiar clothes also emerged due to the turbulent. situation of the time. These clothes reflected the plight of people during that era, who were forced to abandon traditional attire to survive the wars and foreign oppression. It wasn't until later, when the chaos of the war gradually subsided, that a new divergence occurred between foreign attire and traditional attire. This eventually led to the emergence of the unique clothing culture of that period.

Upon hearing Laura's comments, Abigail realized that the actress didn't understand the brutal history faced by the ancient dynasty during the foreign invasion period.

The evolution of clothing was also a crucial aspect of this brutal history. For example, the attire. mentioned by Hensey, which exposed the chest, reflected the passive and negative cultural mindset of the people who were pushed to the brink during that period. They were forced to wear these clothes just to survive.

Laura stared coldly at Abigail. "You talked to Director Lewis about this makeup style. Why does he listen to you so much? Just what is your relationship with Anthony?" Abigail brought out a set of costumes for the day and turned to look at her. "We were classmates in university. What's the matter?"

Laura was about to speak, but Hensey quickly stopped her. "Miss Quinn, shouldn't you consider what the audience wants to see? Your costumes are already like this, and now your makeup... Let's just say that netizens will criticize it. And besides, look at Laura. Her online image isn't like this at all" Hensey said with a smile trying to negotiate with Abigail

Laura instantly flew into a rage. "Do you think your close relationship with Sean and your being classmates with Anthony makes you special? You're just someone who got here through the back door! What history are you talking about? I think you're trying to insert your own ideas!" Abigail frowned. "Now that I've picked the costfor you, I'll work on costumes for other actors."

Laura kicked her chair away in anger. She stared at Abigail's back, saying, "You're just an assistant.

What are you being so cocky for?!" "Calm down..." Hensey quickly tried to soothe her.

Meanwhile, Abigail closed the door and took a deep breath.

Laura had a stunning appearance in her previous fantasy due to her makeup and clothing style which made her one of the top actresses able to play the role of the top beauty. This time, the peculiar makeup and clothing style would affect her online reputation, so it was natural for her to be furious. However, Abigail remained faithful to historical accuracy and would not change her stance.
