Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 246 - 255: Audition

But everyone understood that when Lillian Scott said this, it was nothing more than an attempt to disgrace Mabel Quinn, to vent her anger. Lillian Scott had backing, and she was the film’s second female lead, while Mabel Quinn was just a minor screenwriter. Weighing the two, the director immediately decided to sacrifice the small screenwriter to appease Lillian Scott, hoping the subsequent filming would go more smoothly.

So he said, "Mabel Quinn, you go and act with Orion."

Immediately, the crew was in an uproar. Were they really going to let Mabel Quinn act?

And Orion, who was the lead actor of the show, was the newly emerging popular young actor. Lillian’s repeated retakes already made him very impatient, and now he had to perform with an amateur. His face was getting longer.

Fortunately, his assistant persuaded him for a while, and Orion finally calmed down.

Mabel Quinn was taken aback. She was completely inexperienced in acting, and the current situation put her in an awkward position.

Meanwhile, the director’s assistant urged her to hurry up and not waste everyone’s time.

She looked around, seeing everyone with expressions as if they were watching a show, especially Lillian Scott, who had a contemptuous look as if she was waiting for her to make a fool of herself.

Mabel Quinn felt a lump in her chest. She never thought there was a problem with the scene she wrote. This scene was where Audrey, played by Lillian Scott, confessed to Orion’s character, Caspian. Audrey was the daughter of a scholarly family, introverted and reserved. Although she had intense feelings, she had always kept them buried due to her upbringing. When she noticed Caspian had feelings for the female lead, Amy, she felt lost and, on a whim, ran to confess to him.

Since Lillian Scott couldn’t perform it well and claimed the problem was with the script, Mabel was determined to show her that the script was not the issue!

Mabel Quinn took a deep breath, walked up to Orion, and positioned herself.

The director shouted, "Action!"

But everyone knew this was just to appease Lillian Scott, and naturally, the camera wasn’t even rolling.

Even though Orion was impatient, he was a professional actor, so he performed as if he was acting with Lillian. "Audrey, do you have something to say?"

"I... I have something I want to tell you." At this moment, she cleared her mind. Right now, she wasn’t Mabel Quinn. She was Audrey, who silently liked Caspian and was willing to wait for the day Caspian would come to pursue her. But now she realized she couldn’t wait any longer because Caspian’s gaze was always on Amy.

"Okay, tell me."

Should she really say it? If she confessed and he didn’t like her back, how would she face herself in the future? She hesitated and was bewildered, slowly lowering her head.

The silence lingered a bit too long. The script only had the line, "Audrey lowers her head in silence, and Caspian prepares to turn and leave." Previously with Lillian Scott, Lillian would usually shrug her shoulders as if about to cry, prompting Orion to make the move to leave.

However, at this moment, Mabel just lowered her head without any extra movement.

Just as Orion shifted his step, about to make the action of leaving, Mabel suddenly reached out and grabbed Orion’s hand.
