Chapter 790: Chapter 793: Meeting (7) (Additional Update 3)
“Mhm.”
Aidan Lucas looked at her and said subconsciously, “I’ll give you two minutes to do a tryout first.”
Even he himself didn’t notice that his tone had softened a bit unconsciously.
“Do a tryout first…?” Lily hadn’t thought about auditioning at all.
But thinking about her goal, she changed her tone, “Alright.”
She was not an actress at all.
But if she could stay, it meant that she would have more time to be in contact with him in the future.
Seeing him pretending not to recognize her, Lily knew that it wouldn’t be easy to approach Ethan Wilson now.
She must get this role!
She quickly scanned the script in her hand, and luckily, there were only a few lines to recite. Most of the performance required her to convey emotions and actions through gestures and facial expressions.
Lily fully committed to the role and didn’t even realize that the way the people around her looked at her was changing rapidly.
Throughout the three days of auditioning, this was the first time that Mr. Cooper had so much to say about an actress.
The three creators and Benjamin Lucas IX all subconsciously decided that no matter how Alice performed, they definitely couldn’t publicly deny her acting skills.
Colin Cloud, who was acting as the male protagonist, had already picked up a script that matched Lily’s and quickly got into character.
If Mr. Cooper had a special interest in a woman, Colin had to give two hundred percent in his performance, making sure he could fully immerse her into the scene.
He had to make Mr. Cooper satisfied.
Two minutes passed quickly.
After preparing herself, Lily put her script and bag aside, nodded slightly to Aidan Lucas, the director, and the screenwriter, and went straight up to Colin without introducing herself.
Colin was standing by the sofa, about to put down the script.
He hadn’t been quite ready when Lily approached him.
Unexpectedly, Lily came closer and pushed him.
Her delicate hands landed directly on his chest, catching him off guard and pressing him down onto the sofa.
In the first scene of the script, the heroine Liliana, after awakening her demonic seduction powers, actively seduces the Holy Saint, the male protagonist.
Lily quickly immersed herself in the role, and her sweet, fragile beauty began to fade from her face.
She slightly raised the corners of her mouth, and her charming eyes became even more enchanting.
“Holy Saint…” Her voice, once sweet and soft, was replaced by a slightly husky, sexy tone.
She leaned against Colin, letting her breath caress his face.
Before she could proceed according to the script, she heard a man’s cold, ruthless voice ringing out.
“That’s enough.”
Aidan Lucas’s face went cold, and the violent fury in his eyes raged uncontrollably. He seemed to want to tear Colin apart.
Lily paused for a moment, and looked up at Aidan Lucas with confusion.
Had she just forced herself into the role and her acting wasn’t that bad, was it?
The scene had barely started, and Aidan Lucas had already called for a stop.
“You, change partners.”
Sometime after, the man’s indifferent voice rang out once again.
Lily nodded helplessly. She knew that she still wasn’t good enough.
It seemed that her plan to use this opportunity to get closer to him was doomed to fail.
As she had expected, Aidan Lucas could never let go of her departure.
She removed her hands from Colin’s suit collar and slowly stood up, bowing politely to Aidan Lucas, the director, and the screenwriter.
She then turned around and was about to walk back to the line.
“Wait, where are you going?”
When he saw her turning her back and making a motion to leave,
the man felt a pang of pain rapidly flash through his eyes.
He didn’t want her to go.
“Didn’t you say to change partners?” Lily looked at him and blinked her eyes.
Her long eyelashes flickered, making her peach blossom eyes look clear and cute.
The pain in his eyes faded and turned into an inexplicable itching.
“What I meant was to change partners and act with you. You… come here and act in a scene with me.”
The man stretched out his slender index finger and hooked it at her.
