A Night with Her Cruel Mate

Director Zhang arranged the scene as a one-man show, where the supporting actress had been misunderstood by the male
lead. Because there was no opponent, the actresses had to act on their own.
Since Julia was the second to the last, it was a good way for her to learn from the other girls' acting skills.
The girls before her chose to cry loudly, but Julia felt that something was missing.
When it was Julia's turn, she was still thinking about how she should act. From a distance, she saw Samuel mouth, "You can do
it." She gave him a small smile and nodded in response.
As she stood on stage, she fell into the mood as the lights slowly dimmed.
She remembered how Terence misunderstood her and burst into tears.
She pretended to see him in front of her, telling her that he wanted a divorce.
"Please let me explain..." She wanted to reach out to hold his hand, but Terence left with Jean.
She smiled bitterly at him. "Why don't you trust me?"
Her performance was naturally good, as she had imagined herself in that situation. Samuel saw Director Zhang nodding his
head. He knew that she gave an outstanding performance.
"Okay, go ahead and wait," Director Zhang gently shouted, but Julia hadn't been able to pull herself out of the emotion. She
wiped her tears, bowed, and went down.
After learning from the rest, the last actress's performance mirrored Julia's own. Director Zhang frowned after noticing it.
"Well, thank you all for working so hard today. I've kept all your performances in mind. Once we've finished discussing it, I will
contact you on the phone." Director Zhang smiled at those who auditioned and turned to Samuel. "Would you like to have dinner
together?"
"No, thanks. I have an appointment," Samuel replied with a grin.
After Director Zhang had left, Samuel rushed towards Julia and hugged her. "You were so awesome that I almost cried."
"Put me down," Julia insisted, panicking that she might have had influence over him.

"Don't worry." Samuel wrapped his arms around Julia's neck and gave her a dimpled smile. "What do you want to eat? It's my
treat."
"Whatever." Julia laughed slightly. "By the way, Samuel, do you think I was doing well just now?"
"I think that was your best performance! Don't worry, I'm sure you will be chosen," Samuel said as he comforted her.
Julia heaved a sigh of relief when she heard what Samuel said. They chose to eat at a hotpot restaurant and booked a box
beforehand so that Samuel didn't have to worry about the paparazzi.
"By the way, Samuel, why did you come here today?" Julia asked suspiciously. "Didn't you say that you were shooting a scene in
another city when I texted you yesterday?"
"I just wanted to surprise you." Samuel gave her a broad grin. He worked hard, not resting for the last three days just to be with
her today.
"Thank you." Julia smiled. "Without you, I would have been gotten nervous."
"You always get nervous." He rolled his eyes angrily. "I really don't know why you're always edgy."
"You don't understand."
Throughout the meal, Samuel kept reassuring her that she had the best performance, relieving her.
She had originally thought that getting this role would be easy, but she didn't expect that something would go wrong along the
way.
When Julia slept that night, Consuela suddenly woke her up.
"Why are you still sleeping here? Something bad happened," Consuela complained angrily.
"What's wrong?" Julia scowled, remembering that Consuela had said the same thing to her two days ago. "What happened this
time? Did Terence and Jean kiss in public? Was their relationship exposed?"
"No, you're wrong. Julia, it's about you." Consuela paused, her brows tightly knitting. She didn't know how to tell Julia.
"About me?" Julia gaped in shock. She widened her sleepy eyes and asked in confusion, "What did the media report about me?
I'm just an unknown actress."

Consuela hesitated for a while before sighing deeply. "Never mind, I won't tell you. You should read it yourself."
Consuela threw the phone to Julia.
"Be gentle," Julia snapped. "I just changed my phone. Don't damage it."
She picked up the phone and found that she was trending on Weibo.
She saw the top four posts on the hot search list. "Julia Gu was being accused by her mother for abandoning her."
"Even though Julia was becoming successful in the industry, she was unwilling to give her mother twenty thousand per month."
"Julia Gu is involved in drug abuse." "How many businessmen has Julia Gu has slept with?"
A series of eye-catching titles appeared in on Weibo.
Her heart jolted, and she almost dropping the phone in her hand.
She checked the news and found that that there were many unfavorable news about her. She even found edited photos being
circulated. Her own page was filled with negative comments.
Julia frowned. This was the first time she had ever become so popular, but it was a pity that it had to be this way. It was
ridiculous.
"What the hell is going on?" Julia's face turned pale. She didn't understand the person who bore such a deep grudge against her.
Why was she slandered like that?
"All these rumors are fake. Who on earth hated me so much that they wanted to ruin my reputation?" Julia's mind went blank.
She didn't know what to do.
"You should take a look at this." Consuela took Julia's phone from her and navigated to the video app. As soon as Julia watched
Mandy speaking in the video, she immediately understood what was happening.
It was ridiculous of her to slander Julia like that just for the two million dollars.
"Netizens are now uncovering your dark history. After working with you for such a long time, I know that you aren't that type of
person. But I doubt the netizens would agree with me. Since public opinion is currently against you, I suggest that you stay at

home for the time being."
