Chapter 4 The role had been assigned
Anna took a deep breath. With Lucy’s help, what she planned was half the battle.
"In fact, Alice not only wants me to finish the audition for her but also plans to monopolize the company’s performance resources based on Black’s help. She must have done this before. The point is we need to find the evidence.”
Before Lucy spoke at the other side of the phone, Anna continued, "What’s more, she is pregnant with Black’s child."
"Fuck! Those bastards are so shameless." Lucy swore.
They were cheating on Anna and still wanted to use her as a substitute. That was so disgusting.
Now that Anna had discovered the truth, she couldn’t just sit there and do nothing. She needed revenge and let them pay for what they had done to her.
A few hours later, she put on makeup and wore a mask and a hat. Then she appeared in the audition hotel on time.
When she just went into the lobby, Tom, the agent of Alice, came over and deliberately spoke loudly while walking, "Hey, Alice, I feel so sorry that you get sick so badly. Come with me and get ready. Don't keep Director Bush waiting!"
Tom was unexpectedly playing well compared with Alice.
He did that on purpose so as to tell everyone that the woman wearing a mask was Alice.
Anna was not in a hurry to spot his lie since she knew what to do next.
As soon as the elevator door closed, Tom angrily glanced at Anna and reprimanded, "Do you realize how late it is! You still think you are famous?"
His arrogant tone was the same as Alice’s. After all, they both looked down on her and regarded her as nothing but a slave. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
If she wasn't cheated by Black's false affection before, if she did not choose to work behind the scenes for Black and if she still worked hard on her acting career, how could she be humiliated by this nobody like Tom? But she made the wrong choice for this wrong guy, leading her life directly to the hell.
She calmed down and told herself that it was OK now since she had found the truth. She still had hope to change her life again.
"A lot of people of this cast have seen Alice," she explained, slightly lowering her head and pulling up her mask. "I don't want to be recognized as soon as I walk in the door, so I spent time preparing for it."
As she’s saying, Tom took a second look and found that she did look like Alice today with the help of heavy makeup such as very white foundation and deep double-fold eyelids. And she was wearing a mask. At first glance, most people would easily mistake her for Alice.
"Black has taken care of everything. All you need to do is to pretend to faint in front of Director Bush."
‘Just predend to faint and Alice will get the role? Seriously?’
"That’s it?” Anna looked at him, "Director Bush’s professional. How comes Alice takes this role so easily?"
"Time has changed and people, too. Let's hurry!" Tom seemed to be assured as if Alice had already got this role.
But Anna suddenly frowned Is the role assigned previously?
Although the role Alice wanted wasn’t the leading role but Jane, the third female role, the main line of the whole play revolved Jane's miserable life. Jane was forced to marry a man whom she didn’t love at all, which finally drove her crazy. Although Alice wouldn’t get high pay for this role, she could definitely shine and get famous if she played well.
Black was so considerate when it came to Alice.
"Alice. Come here. This is your seat. Sit down and rest since you're not feeling well...” Tom said loudly.
“OK.” Anna followed while lowering the brim of her hat.
At the same time, Jack got reported that Anna had disguised to help Alice perform the audition. Why does she do that? Jack was a little confused. ‘Well, things seem to be more interesting than I expect. Why not go and check for myself?’
"Get the car ready now."
It was just an audition and nothing big, but he suddenly wanted to see how Anna acted.
