SWNOVELS Chapter 23
Chapter 23 At The Audition
Hearing this, Jeremy smiled bitterly.
"Francis, what nonsense are you talking about? Am I really that kind of person in your eyes?"
Although his tone was sharp, he felt aggrieved.
Not only was he the president of the company, but he had also been working together with Francis for several years.
Why was there no tacit trust and understanding between them? However, Francis remained unmoved.
He clucked his tongue and said, "I'm not going to be your puppet.I have read the script of The Legend of Anne more than twenty
times! It can be said that my understanding of this story is only second to that of Mia herself.It is a masterpiece that will be
recorded in the history of literature.I won't allow anyone to desecrate my adaptation of The Legend of Anne!"
Without waiting for a reply, Francis hung up the phone in a huff.
Jeremy had been talking on speaker phone, so both Maria and Lyndsey had heard the whole conversation.
Maria was expressionless as usual, but Lyndsey was stunned.
Francis...was really a badass director! He even dared to retort to the president of the company he worked for.
No wonder he used to be jobless for a long time.
"I'm sorry, Mia.Francis's just..."иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σм Jeremy shrugged, feeling embarrassed.He wished that he could turn back time
and stop himself from having that conversation on speaker phone.
"You don't have to apologize," Maria said calmly.
"Francis is right.He is a good director."
Then, she stood up to leave.Even though Jeremy wanted to go with her, he simply nodded and hung back.
After all, if Maria walked into the audition room followed by the president of Yeez Entertainment himself, it would cause disorder
among the candidates.Lyndsey didn't seem to be as careful as him, because she stood up as well and followed Maria closely.
"Where are you going?" Jeremy interrupted, glaring at her.
"Don't make trouble for Mia." Lyndsey was an A-list actress now dressed in an eye-catching outfit.
If she went to the audition hall like this, it would definitely cause a sensation! Maria cocked an eyebrow at the famous actress,
curious to see her reaction.
"Don't worry, Mia.I am a master of disguise.I can completely transform my look in just five minutes.When I'm done, even my own
mother won't recognize me!"
Lyndsey promised in a hurry.Now that she had finally met Mia, she didn't want to let go of this opportunity to become familiar with
her.
"Okay, I'll wait for you." Maria nodded.иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σм
Seeing how kind and understanding her idol was, Lyndsey was overjoyed.
Lyndsey's private dressing room was on the same floor as the CEO's office, so she hurried over there and changed her whole
outfit.
Sure enough, it only took her five minutes to complete her disguise.
Maria was surprised to see the famous actress return in a hip- hop outfit.
Lyndsey was wearing a varsity jacket and jeans, paired with a baseball cap and sneakers.
She had put on foundation that was two shades darker than her natural complexion, and filled in her delicate eyebrows to look
thick and dashing, both of which gave her a masculine vibe.
The top half of her face was covered by her fringe and the brim of her cap.
At first glance, she looked like just another handsome young man who had come to audition.
Maria gave a silent nod of approval before saying, "I don’t know where the audition hall is.You can lead the way."
"My pleasure!"
Beaming from ear to ear, Lyndsey led Maria towards the audition hall.
A few minutes later, the two of them arrived at the doors of the hall, where two security guards were stationed.
Obviously, the security guards must have received word of Maria's arrival, because they let her and Lyndsey in without so much
as asking a question.
When Maria followed Lyndsey into the audition hall, she saw a line of desks near the wall.
Francis and several assistant directors were sitting there, grading the actors who had come to audition.
"Francis, these two are...?"
A new assistant director turned to Francis and asked in a low voice.He didn't know Maria, nor did he recognize Lyndsey.
Francis was so stunned by the sight in front of him that he barely even heard the question.He didn't look at Lyndsey at all; his
attention was completely fixed on Maria, and he found that he couldn't take his eyes off of her.
"They are...They are here for an audition,"
Francis finally said with a complicated expression on his face.
Just now, he had talked back to Jeremy and warned him that he wouldn't allow anyone to get through the backdoor.
Moreover, he didn't intend to give a woman who would use such tricks the chance to audition in the first place.
But now, he had changed his mind.
As soon as Francis set eyes on Maria, he knew that she was the one he was looking for.She was Anne Hade!
