Chapter 60
Chapter 60
Zuri was gorgeous, and her presence had an undeniable charisma that attracted everyone to her. All her roles had either been of sexy, cold, or powerful women. It was the first time she had to play such an unassuming and indomitable character as the prince's wife in that story.
As Chelsea looked at Zuri with sincere eyes, she nodded. "I believe you are capable of performing it well."
Zuri had no confidence in her ability to portray such a character. She had a charming and seductive face, and she had never played a similar role. Maybe Chelsea was just joking with her.
Noticing her hesitation, Chelsea said softly, "Zuri, I know you have a gentle side, and it is still as beautiful. I've seen it."
The friendship between Chelsea and Zuri had been formed while they were in senior high school. Chelsea knew better than anyone else how nice Zuri was.
Hearing what her friend said, Zuri was almost moved to tears.
She was indeed simple and conservative in her heart. Although she always lived in the eye of the storm while she was in the entertainment circle, she always longed for a quiet and peaceful life.
She also hoped to live a happy life with the man she loved.
But because of Zuri's face, everyone thought she was seductive, and even some people marked her as flirtatious at first sight.
After a long time of hearing other people's opinions, even she started thinking that she was that kind of person.
What Chelsea said that day touched the softest part of her heart. Zuri hugged Chelsea with her red eyes and said, "If I get this role, I will definitely play it well."
In addition to not letting down Chelsea's expectations for her, she also hoped to let everyone see who she truly was.
Fay presided over the meeting the whole time, and everyone had a heated discussion. Finally, they all decided to follow the latest revised version of the story.
At the end of the meeting, they made a video call to Edmund to inform him of the final decision. After all, he was still the head of the project, and he had to pay all the investment money.
After the phone connected, Edmund appeared on the big screen of the meeting room. He was wearing a hospital gown and his face looked a little gaunt and haggard.
Chelsea lowered her eyes in silence. She didn't want to waste any pity on him This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
He was the one who didn't take good care of himself. He deserved to be hospitalized.
After a few simple words, Edmund suddenly looked at her direction and said, "Chelsea."
Hearing her name, Chelsea had to look up at Edmund with a small polite smile that was obviously fake on her face. "Yes, Mr. Nelson."
The man looked at her with admiration and said, "The two versions you wrote are both amazing."
Hearing this, Chelsea was surprised, shocked even. She couldn't imagine that Edmund had just praised her like that too in front of so many people. Did he have a fever?
"Thank you," she replied in a low voice and then lowered her eyes once more.
In the past, she had been nothing to Edmund. He had barely even noticed her existence.
During their three years of marriage, she had never heard a single praise coming from him. It seemed that she was valuable only in bed.
Edmund continued, "You can try to expand the old version in another story. I believe it will be more brilliant."
As soon as Edmund finished his words, one of the assistant directors teased, "Mr. Nelson, are you going to make an appointment with Chelsea for the next play?"
Chelsea looked at Edmund as if waiting for his disapproval. He stared at her and said calmly, "Of course, I will."
Everyone looked at Chelsea again, and she quickly calmed down.
Her response was a faint smile. "Thank you for your appreciation, Mr. Nelson. My abilities are limited at the moment, so I can only concentrate on the play at hand. I'm not thinking too much about the future."
