Chapter 204, Are You Jealous?
Janet frowned when she saw the back of Nathaniel not far away.
Why was he everywhere? Were they each other’s jinx and destined to meet everywhere they went?
Ernest noticed Janet’s expression and asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong? Are you uncomfortable?
You can wait for me in the car. I’ll see you after the audition.”
The audition was just a formality, after all.
Janet thought that since she had come, she’d accompany Ernest through the process. As for the
annoying man…
Why did she have to leave when he was there? She wasn’t afraid of him. Couldn’t she go wherever he
was in the future?
Impossible! It was unfair.
Janet said calmly, “I’m fine. I just saw something…”
Under Ernest’s confused gaze, Janet continued.
“Filthy!”
Her fair skin was almost transparent under the sunlight. The lipstick of Color No. 999 gave her an
imposing aura. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Before Ernest could figure out what was going on, Nathaniel had seen them.
The fancy, well-fitting black suit Nathaniel was wearing accentuated his slender figure and added to his
elegance.
No emotion was betrayed on his face. His wristwatch and tie spoke of his status. The obscure actors
on the set were quietly sizing him up, but they were all scared by his stern expression.
Janet fixed her eyes on the gauze on the man’s forehead. No one knew better than her what
happened. She sneered.
It serves him right!
As if having read her mind, Nathaniel turned around. He met her gaze and saw Ernest, who was beside
her.
Nathaniel’s face darkened instantly. He walked over slowly, his gaze unfriendly.
“You were with Nigel two days ago. You found someone new so soon? I didn’t know my ex-wife was so
good with men.”
Janet looked straight into his eyes and retorted sharply, “Sure, I’m not as devoted as you, Mr. Webster.
Even though Anastasia cheated on you, you didn’t care at all. You’re a role model for all of us.”
What happened a few months ago was still vivid in her mind.
Everyone knew about the video of Anastasia playing at the wedding. It was just that no one dared to
mock Nathaniel with it.
But Janet wouldn’t spare his feelings.
If she could be over him, she would be tough!
Nathaniel was embarrassed. He was about to say something when Ernest put his arm around Janet’s
shoulder.
The two of them were very intimate.
Ernest declared, “Baby, I don’t mind being a backup of yours.”
Janet saw the triumphant smile in his eyes. She knew that Ernest was only trying to anger Nathaniel,
and she was happy to cooperate with him in acting.
She nodded coldly, “Then work hard and be far-sighted. Don’t be satisfied with being a backup. I
believe in you. You’re a
wonderful
Ernest stifled his laughter and nodded, “I’ll work hard, but I’m already very happy to be your backup!”
Ernest even raised his head and looked at Nathaniel in confusion.
“Mr. Webster, are you mad because you can’t be Janet’s backup? Are you jealous?”
No wonder Ernest was the best actor.
The innocent look on his face was very convincing, Nathaniel was extremely awkward. If they were in
another place, Janet would’ve laughed out loud.
Tension gathered in the air.
Dawson entered, breaking the oppressive atmosphere. He was the director of the movie and also one
of the most famous
domestic directors. He saw Ernest and smiled.
“Oh, everyone is here. Let me introduce you to each other. This is Ernest Grantham. He’s here for the
audition. Ernest, do your best. I think the script is very suitable for you.”
Ernest smiled politely.
“Thank you for your invitation, Dawson. The script is really good. I have read it carefully. I will not let
you down.”
Dawson nodded in satisfaction.
He had invited Ernest not only because of his fame but also because the script was very compatible
with his character. He believed that if Ernest were to play this role, the audience would like it. More
importantly, Dawson valued Ernest’s reputation
in the industry.
The entertainment industry was too chaotic, but Ernest was always hard-working and professional.
Dawson was very satisfied.
with him!
Dawson then said to Ernest, “This is Mr. Nathaniel Webster, head of the Webster Group and the
investor of the movie.”
Nathaniel glanced at Ernest coldly.
“I’ve heard a lot about you, Ernest.”
“Likewise, Mr. Webster.” Ernest tilted his head, showing no intention of shaking his hand.
Dawson looked confused.
“Do you…know each other?”
If they knew each other, things would be easy. If the actor knew the investor, the investor would be
unlikely to change the plot.
Nathaniel sneered.
“I don’t know him. How could I know someone like Ernest, who leads such a brilliant life?”
Ernest did not show any signs of weakness.
“I should be the one saying that. Mr. Webster has a great reputation. Insignificant figures like me don’t
deserve to know him.”
Dawson was at a loss. Just as he was about to say something, Ernest spoke again.
“Dawson, shall we start the audition?”
Nathaniel and Ernest assumed their usual indifferent expressions as if they weren’t the ones arguing
just now.
Dawson nodded absent-mindedly and pointed to the location of the audition not far away.
“Let’s go over first. There’s a script over there. The process is the same as before.”
It was a simple love story.
The male and female leads broke up, but they still loved each other. After a bitter argument, they tightly
hugged in the heavy rain. The lines weren’t the key. There would be a close shot, so the control of the
male lead’s expression was very important.
Ernest lowered his head to read the script. Under the sunlight, his side profile was really charming.
Nathaniel could hear the screams of the girls around him, and he snorted coldly.
What was so good about a man like this? He was weak like a willow and relied on his face to live.
Nathaniel glanced at Janet.
Her taste in men is as bad as ever.
