Chapter 46 She’s the Person I Love
While Director William was hesitating, Kristen slowly walked over and said, “Hello, Director William, I’m Kristen, who originally signed up for the audition. I’m very sorry. We made a mistake in the audition time. Can you give me another chance?”
Upon hearing these words, everyone expressed their disdain.
“You still have the nerve to come here at a time like this?”
Director William frowned and said coldly, “You are Kristen, right? This is your mistake. The audition time is over. Maybe you have no fate with this role. Off you go.”
“Director William, you don’t even let me try it, how do you know that I have no fate with this role?”
“You can’t even remember the audition time, which only means that you don’t value this role. Why should I give you a chance? The venue props have been removed. Why should we pay for your mistake?”
After that, Director William went upstairs directly. The assistant behind him said, “I’ve seen your profile. you have no qualifications and have not received formal training. It seems that you can’t play the piano well. It should be a waste of time to watch your audition.”
Director William didn’t say anything more, but he felt a little sorry that none of the candidates today had satisfied him.
Kristen had wanted to fight for it, but the staff stopped her.
“Kristen, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault,” Anna said guiltily.
Despite her reluctance, Kristen didn’t blame her.
“Forget it. Let’s go. Be careful next time.”
She asked Anna to send her back to the villa. Sat on the sofa. Kristen’s heart was full of regret.
She had prepared for this audition for a long time. If Director William hadn’t appreciated her performance, she would have accepted the result. But now, she didn’t even have a chance to perform. At this moment, Kristen’s face was full of depression.
……
When Ethan returned to the villa, he didn’t find Kristen at first. He heard a voice from the piano room. The tune of “The Misty River” was full of sadness.
He frowned and walked toward the piano room. After pushing the door open, Kristen noticed his arrival and stopped playing.
“Was the audition not a success?” He asked.
“Yes, Aimee gave me the wrong time. I didn’t even have a chance to audition,” Kristen said dejectedly.
Seeing Ethan’s worried expression, she smiled. “It’s okay, I’ll go check out other scripts. I’ve already given up on this movie.”
According to Director William’s attitude today, Kristen knew that she had no chance. Perhaps she really had no fate with the work.
“Let’s go and eat.”
Kristen stood up and pulled him away.
Ethan stared at the side of her face and wanted to say something, but he didn’t say anything in the end.
After dinner, he went to the study alone and called Anna.
“Send me Director William’s contact information.”
Anna was stunned. “Was Mr. Wharton going to help Kristen get that role?” She felt very happy.
“Okay, Mr. Wharton.”
“Don’t tell Kristen.”
……
Director William was a little confused when he received the call from Ethan. Puzzled, he asked, “So you want me to give Kristen a chance to audition?”
Director William and Ethan did not know each other, nor did they have any business dealings. Logically speaking, there was no need for him to agree to Ethan’s request. Just as he was about to refuse, Ethan continued.
“Yes, Director William, I can invest 100 million dollars in this movie for free. I hope you can give her another chance to audition.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Director William was stunned. A free investment meant that Ethan wouldn’t ask for any dividends after the movie was released. “Well…”
“Mr. Wharton, as you know, I’ve always been strict with my auditions. I can’t sell Kristen the role just because of a hundred million dollars.”
“I know, I just want you to allow her to audition. She has prepared for this movie for a long time. I don’t want her to regret it.”
Director William was stunned. 100 million just for a chance to audition? To not leave any regrets, Director William naturally agreed to such a deal.
“Mr. Wharton, I’m willing to give Kristen a chance to audition. It’s just I want to know why you…”
At this moment, Director William was full of curiosity.
Ethan looked out the window at the moon, a stunningly beautiful face appearing in his mind. He slowly said, “She is someone I like.”
……
The next morning, Kristen was awakened by Anna’s call.
“What did you say? Director William is willing to give me another chance to audition?” Kristen was stunned, feeling that she had not woken up yet.
“That’s right, Director William’s assistant just contacted me. He said that Director William saw the clip of your performance in The Grand World and felt it was good. He told us to go to an audition at 10 o’clock.”
Anna felt that this had to be Mr. Wharton’s arrangement, but he didn’t want her to tell Kristen, so she could only keep it a secret.
Kristen hung up the phone with a broad smile.
Seeing Ethan walk out in a suit, she put her arms around his neck and said happily, “Director William is giving me another chance to audition.”
“Is that so?”
“That’s right. Anna said that he watched my previous performance…” Speaking of this, Kristen frowned slightly.
“That’s not right. Director William was so determined yesterday. Why did he change his mind after seeing my show?”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Moreover, The Grand World was an ancient costume drama, and the show she’s auditioning for is a modern drama, and the two styles were completely different.
Director William’s attitude was firm and unmoved by emotion, which was well-known in the director’s circle.
Kristen immediately let go of Ethan and stared straight at him.
“Are you helping me in secret?”
Ethan touched her head and said calmly, “No, I don’t even know Director William. So I can’t help you.”
“Really?”
“Yep. It’s already nine o’clock. If you don’t prepare, this opportunity will be gone.”
Hearing this, Kristen didn’t have time to think. She rushed to the bathroom to wash up.
Ethan looked at her back and smiled.
“She does not wish to achieve her goal through improper means. Thus, I naturally cannot let her know that I have helped her.”
There was already an opportunity for the audition, and the rest could only depend on Kristen’s efforts.
After leaving the villa, Ethan took her to the audition venue.
After parting ways with him, Kristen was taken to the audition room by the staff. Director William and the producer screenwriters were there.
Everyone looked at her unhappily. They didn’t understand why Director William was willing to give her another chance.
Kristen found that the way Director William looked at her seemed a little strange. As for what was strange, she couldn’t tell. Without thinking much, she said with a smile, “Director William, thank you for giving me another chance.”
Director William thought to himself, “I didn’t want to give you a chance, but 100 million dollars is too tempting!”
“Okay, let’s start the clips of the audition.”
