Chapter 64: Who Is She?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The second female lead in the drama proved to be an intriguing character.

Martha, a princess of the royal family, harbored ambitious aspirations of becoming the queen. Her personality was a complete contrast to the rebellious female lead, as she remained a steadfast supporter of the goddess.

Nevertheless, amidst the royal power struggles, Martha fell prey to the treacherous politics at play.

After Martha caused the female protagonist’s demise through immolation, she believed that there were no longer any obstacles. However, just three days after she ascended the throne, her life was abruptly ended by her own fiancé.

Audrey found herself utterly bewildered.

Who… who wrote this script? It was too magical.

Daniel’s suggestion for Audrey to audition for the second female lead role was essentially a means of honing her acting abilities. Despite Martha being unequivocally villainous in the drama, her character was intricately layered, making it a test of one’s acting prowess.

Audrey quickly replied to Daniel, “Let’s accept that!”

The following morning, Audrey awoke early. Anthea, aware of her impending audition, thoughtfully selected a few dresses for her.

In consideration of the role’s requirements, Audrey donned a resplendent, flowing gown and accentuated her lips with a shade of red. Anthea was taken aback and inquired, “Which character are you auditioning for? Why the exaggerated makeup?”

Audrey chuckled. “This time, I’m stepping into the shoes of a bad woman.” Bad woman? Anthea’s mouth twitched.

In the entertainment industry, many celebrities tended to shy away from portraying villainous roles due to their public image. The media’s reach was vast, and once a villainous character became entrenched in the audience’s perception, it posed a substantial hurdle to an actor’s career advancement. Audrey, however, remained unfazed.

In her previous life as an actress, she primarily landed minor roles. Securing the role of the second female lead, with its substantial screen time and acting challenges, was already a cause for gratitude. Audrey recognized this as an opportunity to further refine her craft.

Furthermore, the second female lead in this drama boasted a considerable number of scenes, presenting a challenging test of the actors’ abilities. Audrey recognized this as an invaluable opportunity to enhance her skills.

Because they had something to do at the company, Gary and Abner had already finished their breakfast and left for work. Only Eric, with a more leisurely schedule, lingered over a glass of milk.

“Good morning, Second Brother,” Audrey greeted Eric and was poised to make a swift exit when his curious frown led him to question, “Why are you wearing such heavy makeup this early in the morning?”

Audrey patiently explained to him, “I’m going for an audition.”

“An audition?” Eric expressed skepticism before bursting into laughter. “I must say, with that getup, are you trying out for the role of a sinister supporting actress or something?” [Second Brother’s nose is really sharp.]

Nose? Eric was shocked.

Audrey offered a sweet smile. “Second Brother, I’ll share the good news once I succeed in the audition.”

With that, Audrey departed without a backward glance.

Eric looked in the direction she had left, deep in thought.

Upon her arrival at the company, the clock struck eight in the morning. Audrey rode the elevator to the fifth floor, where she had arranged to meet Daniel. She was pleasantly surprised to find her assistant, Anna, waiting for her.

“Wow, you look stunning today!” Anna exclaimed sincerely.

Audrey replied with confidence, “There’s a lot of talent out there today, so we need to be 120% focused.”

Anna nodded with a smile, and Audrey was soon escorted to the waiting room.

Besides the audition for the second female lead role, the other auditions were concurrently taking place. The waiting room was sectioned off into several groups of individuals, and as Audrey entered, she noticed it was nearly filled to capacity.

After locating a vacant seat and settling in, Audrey’s curiosity led her to scan the room, inadvertently locking eyes with a young girl. Their gaze, though brief, left an indelible impression on Audrey. However, very quickly, the girl averted her eyes.

Audrey was stunned.

Even in the mere seconds their eyes met, the girl’s striking visage had etched itself into Audrey’s memory.

Intrigued, Audrey discreetly nudged Anna, who sat beside her, and inquired in hushed tones, “Anna, who is that person?”

Anna, the prime source of juicy gossip, responded excitedly, “Sister, that’s the newcomer Elena!” Elena?

Shocking!

Stunning!

Audrey’s realization dawned: Elena was the original novel’s female lead!

She hadn’t anticipated encountering Elena today, let alone finding themselves on the same production team..
