The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 2219

Chapter 2219 

Ivy paused mid-stroke as she was towel-drying her hair. 

Her assistant, always one to shoot straight, was visibly peeved. How could anyone expect her to hold her breath deep underwater when she had a water phobia? 

After all, acting was just a job, and fans’ adoration was just an added halo of glory. 

Ivy did not need to risk her life for a scene, did she? 

Besides, she knew all too well that for Ivy; sinking into the ocean’s depths was not as simple as closing her eyes and then opening them again. 

Every second submerged felt like an eternity to her. 

In the grip of such terror, how could she possibly control her movements? 

Diana’s comments were obviously flippant. After all, she did not fear the water, but she was not the lead actress. 

Ivy stopped her assistant, appreciating her concern. This was the only person who would stand up for her. 

But the assistant was just that-an assistant. Her influence was minimal, and Ivy was unsure she had the clout to ensure her safety. 

When faced with Diana’s provocations, she would rather take on a bit more grief than let her assistant take risks on her behalf. 

“Let’s cut to the chase. If you’re not shooting, give the director a heads-up. No need to keep testing the waters and wasting everyone’s time. Drying your hair takes long enough as it is.” 

Ivy’s hair had to be dried repeatedly to recreate the exact conditions for the shoot. 

It was then that Colton approached, eyes filled with concern. 

“There’s no need to cave to someone else’s baiting. Your health is paramount.” 

If possible, he would love his film to have no stunt doubles, but sometimes actors had no control over, he had no choice but to compromise. 

He was not some old-school tyrant insisting Ivy learn to tread water. 

For actors, valuing their health was crucial to their future prospects. 

Ivy took a deep breath, dabbed at her hair, and nodded.

Colton nodded, giving her the space she needed. 

The rest of the crew was told to stand down and take a break. 

“What do you think about this? We shoot a few more takes or let lvy shoot just the scene. where she falls into the sea and then use a stunt double for the underwater shots. 

That way, we can keep the story seamless.”
