“Feldnan, you’re finally here.” Evans smiled and shook hands with the man.
Feldnan shook Evans’s hand out of courtesy before shifting his gaze to Audrey and the others.
“Which one of you here is my partner?” Feldnan asked with a polite smile.
Audrey stood up and revealed a sweet smile. “Mr. Feldnan, I’m Audrey. I’m acting as the female lead.”
Feldnan shook her hand and said, “Alright, Miss Audrey. Please guide me.”
Evans gestured for the director to begin.
Hence, the director arranged for everyone to start acting.
The name of this short drama was ‘Twilight of the Empire’. The first scene was supposed to be held at dusk, but the weather was not good tomorrow, so the director said to start the rest of the scenes first.
The first to go on stage were the consul and his sister.
The male protagonist, Sybil, and his sister, Christine, walked in the back garden of the palace. The two of them were discussing the upcoming incognito trip.
“Oh, brother.” Charlotte raised her head and said to Feldnan, “Are you really going to leave the palace for a while?”
Feldnan raised his hand and gently grabbed Charlotte’s shoulder. “Christine, I have a reason for doing this. In short, don’t worry about me.”
“Cut—” The director suddenly shouted to stop.
Charlotte and Feldnan looked at the director in unison.
Audrey asked, “Director, is there a problem with their acting?”
The director frowned. He glanced at Feldnan and then at Charlotte.
“I can’t say…” the director replied. “I just feel that their auras don’t match when they’re acting.”
“Aura?” Charlotte was puzzled. “Director, how should I act?”
The director thought for a moment and said, “How about this, Charlotte, just like the line you just said… Try to act as if you can’t bear to part with him. After all, in the drama, the male lead and his sister are very close.”
Charlotte nodded. Then, the director signaled for them to start again.
After filming the scene of them saying their lines, the director was still a little dissatisfied.
“Why don’t you guys wait a little longer?” The director said, “Let’s film the scenes of the female lead and male lead in the palace first.”
Evans did not say anything and nodded in agreement.
Audrey glanced at the dejected Charlotte and hurriedly gave Evans a look.
Evans understood and quickly walked towards Charlotte with a smile.
Only then did Audrey heave a sigh of relief. Then, she began to act with Feldnan.
“Sybil, w-who are you?” Audrey stood beside a flower bush and asked in surprise.
Felder glanced at Audrey indifferently before sneering. “Mary, do you still not know my identity?”
Audrey took a step back in shock.
“You… Are you a consul? How can you be a consul?” Audrey’s eyes instantly filled with tears.
Feldnan was about to step forward when the director suddenly shouted, “Cut.”
The two of them looked at the director in confusion.
“Your acting is still not right.” The director was a little vexed. “I keep feeling that there’s something missing.”
Audrey couldn’t help but find it strange. “Director, what are we missing?”
The director looked into Audrey’s eyes and thought seriously for a while before saying, “I keep feeling that there’s not enough confusion in your eyes.”
“Confusion?” Audrey was very surprised. At that moment, Feldnan said, “Director, what do you mean by confusion?”
The director thought for a moment and said, “In my opinion, Mary was able to attract Sybil because her eyes were too clear—didn’t that deceive everyone? It wasn’t until the finale that the female lead’s identity was revealed.”
Audrey couldn’t help but look a little embarrassed.
She couldn’t completely agree with what the director said, but he was right.
When the female protagonist first appeared, she looked innocent and naive.
However, it was obvious that it was very difficult for Audrey to do so now.
She had debuted in the entertainment industry for quite some time. During this period, Audrey had experienced many things. Her heart had become even more tenacious, and her eyes were naturally not as innocent as when she first debuted.
Moreover, she had been reborn many times.
Audrey was no longer an innocent little girl.
Evans looked at Audrey and quickly said to the director, “Then how are they going to overcome these obstacles?”
The director looked around. Soon, his eyes lit up.
