Chapter 66 I’m Bad at Acting!
Alfred’s action immediately made Mr. Watts panic!
He wanted Isobel, whose qualifications were average, so that the hero he would like to find would cost more and should be someone with a great reputation. Otherwise, the box office would be poor.
But Alfred was one of the most influential actors!
It was not easy for the producer to invite Alfred to act in this movie. How could he let Alfred go so easily?
He quickly got up and caught up with him, grabbing his sleeve and said, “Alfred, please…”
Alfred gracefully pulled open the sleeve. His gaze swept across Lottie, who was in the distance, with appreciation. “You’re great.”
“Today, Natalia said that she would take me to see a rookie with good acting skills. In fact, I don’t have much expectation.”
“When I found that is you, It was even worse.”
Lottie, “…”
It seemed that when she was in Caknard, not only did Alfred leave a bad impression on her, but she also meant nothing in Alfred’s eyes.
“But I’ve changed my mind now.”
He smiled. “You really deserve Natalia’s praise.”
“If there is a chance in the future, I will recommend you to my familiar directors.”
“You deserve it.”
After that, he glanced indifferently at Mr. Watts, who was standing next to him. “And this play is not worth it.”
Mr. Watts’s face instantly turned pale.
The two judges, who lowered their score for Lottie and gave Isobel’s full score, looked at each other. They quickly stood up and said. “Mr. Barton!”
In fact, they were also influential in the industry. Today, why they were willing to score according to Mr. Watts’s request was just to show respect to him.
They never thought that someone like Alfred would be watching from behind!
If they knew that Alfred was here, even if Mr. Watts gave them ten times the price, they would not agree!
“Mr. Barton, in fact, we don’t think Ms. Mitchell’s performance is good!”
Alfred frowned and stopped, but he didn’t look back. “Since you know that she didn’t perform well, why did you give her a high score?”
The two producers looked at each other again.
They certainly wouldn’t say that Mr. Watts gave them money, so they gave Isobel full marks.
After all, Mr. Watts still had some prestige and qualifications in the community.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
So…
Both of them pointed at Isobel. “It’s her!”
“This actress named Isobel knocked on our door last night and gave us a sum of money. She knelt on the ground and begged us to give her full marks…”
“So…”
“So you compromised for money?”
Natalia, who was sitting in the judges’ seats, smiled. She crossed her arms around her chest and turned to look at Mr. Watts. “What about you, Mr. Watts? Did you also receive some benefits?”
The woman’s words suddenly frightened Mr. Watts!
He turned around, winked at Isobel, and coughed softly. “Everyone knows that I’m short-sighted.”
“I didn’t wear glasses today. I thought I did but I didn’t.”
“So I just heard the actress’s voice and felt that her performance was good. I didn’t carefully observe her subtle expression. It’s my fault.”
Natalia sneered and looked up at Isobel. “Wow.”
Isobel’s hand clenched into a fist!
It was Mr. Watts who had promised her that he would buy off the two judges and she didn’t need to be care about it!
However, she didn’t expect that everyone shifted the responsibility to her!
And the most aggrieved thing was that she could not refute it.
If she refuted, they would reveal that it was Mr. Watts who really bribed them. Not only would her relationship with him be exposed, but Mr. Watts’s future career would also be over!
She still hoped that Mr. Watts would give her the female lead in the future. She had tried so hard to coax Mr. Watts. She could not let him ruin her plan just like that!
Therefore, Isobel had to eat dirt. “Mr. Barton, don’t blame Mr. Watts and the two producers. If you want to blame someone, blame me.”
“It’s my fault. I bribed the two producers, so…”
Alfred turned around calmly and looked at Isobel with a smile. “Do you think I believe you?”
Having been acting for so many years, Alfred and Natalia had seen everything.
Today, Mr. Watts had a special attitude towards Isobel from the very beginning. They all saw it with their own eyes, but they were just unwilling to expose it.
The man saw through Isobel, which made her panic. “I…”
“Mr. Barton.”
Lottie frowned and took a step forward, blocking Alfred from looking at Isobel. “Since Mr. Barton thinks that she’s not suitable to be the heroine.”
As she spoke, she looked up at Alfred seriously. “What about me?”
“If I can convince Mr. Watts to let me be the heroine, will Mr. Barton be willing to play with me?”
Alfred looked at Lottie indifferently. “Are you sure you want to stand out and interrupt me at this time?”
“Yes.”
Lottie nodded seriously. “Mr. Barton, I’m only asking if you’re willing to accept me.”
She knew that Alfred wanted to expose the scandal between Isobel and Mr. Watts on the spot.
But now was not the right time.
How could Luke not be present?
If she hadn’t seen Luke’s expression at the moment of being cuckolded, she wouldn’t have felt satisfied.
Alfred squinted. He didn’t know what this stupid woman wanted to do.
She was the one being suppressed by Mr. Watts and Isobel together.
But since she was so ungrateful…
The man smiled. “Sure.”
“All right!”
Mr. Watts patted his thigh excitedly. “She’s the winner!”
“She won the role of the heroine!”
Kayden sat on the spot with a fake smile. “Everyone, listen to me. Among the five actresses in the audition today, Lottie’s acting skills are the best. Do your guys think so?”
The room was completely silent.
“That’s it!”
Mr. Watts seemed to be afraid that Alfred would regret it at the last minute, so he quickly came to a conclusion. “The movie ‘Azeroath’, the hero Alfred Barton, and the heroine Lottie Green, I’ll send someone to draft a contract right away!”
“Huh!”
Isobel bit her lip with a pale face and strode away.
When she reached the door, a security guard stopped her .
“Ms. Mitchell.”
The security guard stopped her with a fake smile. “You can’t leave as the leaders haven’t left yet.”
“He’s right.”
The actress who had laughed at Lottie’s lack of expertise with Isobel earlier swept a cold glance at her. “You haven’t explained clearly yet. You sent money to the two producers.”
“Don’t leave in a hurry as soon as you’re exposed. Don’t you need to explain it to us?”
Isobel clenched her teeth and her face as pale as paper. “There’s nothing to explain!”
“I just have poor acting skills, so I sent gifts to someone to help me. Can’t I?”
