Not far from Audrey, Eric, who had been basking in the sun beneath an umbrella, slowly lowered his oversized sunglasses. He glanced at Audrey, who was jumping around, and couldn’t help but break into a smile.
With the cast now finalized, Audrey had also learned from Anna that the female lead in the drama was indeed Elena.
It was indeed her.
It came as no great surprise. Audrey had anticipated Elena securing the role of the female lead.
In the original story, Elena’s acting career had flourished, culminating in her winning the title of Best Actress in the grand finale.
Now that Elena, the original novel’s female lead, had made her appearance, Audrey found herself particularly curious about when the male lead, Fred, would make his entrance.
Audrey recollected that in the original narrative, shortly after her confrontations with Elena, Fred had promptly entered the scene. He had even come to the aid of Alina, whom Audrey had mistreated, swiftly transitioning from a rivalry to a burgeoning friendship with the female lead that eventually evolved into a romance.
The complication lay in the fact that Audrey had no intention of bullying the weak anymore. She wondered when the circumstances would align for Fred to appear.
A week later, the production team held an opening ceremony and officially commenced filming in the afternoon.
Due to seasonal considerations, the production team opted to begin with selected summer scenes set in an ancient castle on a studio lot, rather than starting from the beginning of the script.
The first scene featured an encounter between the ambitious Martha and the female lead, Serena. The characters crossed paths in the long corridor of the palace by chance. Martha initiated a mocking exchange with Serena, igniting a heated argument within the grand corridor.
Audrey knew very well that the Host used to have an arrogant and willful personality, so she had a very good grasp of the image of the arrogant Martha. With a few actions and gazes, she vividly portrayed Martha’s insufferable arrogance.
Elena, who was acting as Serena, also had good acting skills. After the scene, Dean couldn’t help but nod repeatedly.
During break time, Audrey settled into a chair with a glass of orange juice. Anna, seated beside her, scrolled through Weibo. As she perused the platform, she gleefully remarked, “Sis, our drama is bound to become a hit in the future.” Audrey smiled and replied, “Why? Did you see something fun again?”
Anna excitedly conveyed, “The director spread the news as soon as we began filming. Everyone is eagerly anticipating it.”
Audrey remained composed as she commented, “Ultimately, it’s the audience who decides whether it’s good or not. I need to deliver a strong performance.”
“Exactly! What’s the point of playing a wicked supporting character? People will just end up hating her.”
Suddenly, a cold voice sounded. Both Audrey and Anna were caught off guard and turned to the source of the comment.
Sitting beside Elena, an actress regarded Audrey with a mixture of contempt and disdain on her face.
Audrey recognized her. This young woman portrayed another noblewoman in the drama. Her real name was Kate.
It seemed that Kate was not easy to get along with…
Audrey cast a glance at the person beside Kate—Elena, whose countenance bore a cold and aloof expression. Audrey soon grasped the situation.
“The fundamental quality of an actor is to approach every role with commitment, rather than evaluating the role’s worth based solely on personal preferences. Miss Kate, what do you think?” Audrey inquired with a feigned smile.
In truth, Audrey directed this question at Elena, who sat beside Kate.
Kate had been dismissive and impolite toward Audrey moments ago, and Audrey had a strong suspicion that Elena was involved.
As expected, Elena’s expression quickly changed.
Elena opened her mouth and was about to say something when the assistant director interjected, shouting to the group, “Alright, let’s proceed with the next scene.”
Dean had to leave early, so the assistant director was in charge of the day’s shoot.
The following scene still featured interactions between Martha and Elena. The onlookers watched with intrigue from the sidelines.
Elena observed Audrey, who was adorned in a sumptuous costume, deliver her lines. When it was Elena’s turn to speak, she suddenly exclaimed with a display of irritation, “Director—”
No one knew why Elena stopped when everything was fine..
