Chapter 72: Being Given a Room Card

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Early the following morning, Audrey completed her makeup routine as usual and headed to the production team after breakfast.

Audrey had fewer scenes to shoot today. The entire morning was predominantly dedicated to a scene between the female lead and male lead.

The actor cast as the male lead was one of the most popular celebrities in recent times—Howard.

Howard possessed a strikingly handsome face. Setting aside his acting skills, his popularity alone made him a standout figure on the production team.

Elena’s eyes shimmered as she performed alongside him throughout the morning.

Anna also observed this and privately commented to Audrey, “Isn’t Elena too inconsistent? Yesterday, while acting with you, she appeared as if she wanted to tear you apart.”

Audrey offered an indifferent smile. “Director Dean is here today, so she won’t dare to overstep.”

Anna muttered further, “I feel like she’s constantly targeting you… Sis, do you think she’s envious of your acting abilities?”

Audrey was taken aback. “Really?”

Elena had entered the entertainment industry as a child star and had been in show business for over a decade. It wouldn’t make sense for her to harbor resentment toward a newcomer like Audrey.

However, Anna’s remark left Audrey feeling somewhat suspicious.

Audrey had been an actress in her previous life. Although many of her roles were minor, she took her craft seriously and always strived to excel, no matter the role’s size.

But was Elena really targeting her for this reason? It sounded absurd.

If that were truly the case, there was no reason for Elena to act this way. Elena had built a solid portfolio over the years, with numerous successful works. Arguing with a newcomer like Audrey seemed unnecessary.

With this thought in mind, Audrey sighed.

When it was Audrey and Howard’s turn to act, Audrey swiftly got into character. However, Howard emitted an odd vibe that left her feeling uneasy.

Audrey couldn’t discern if it was just her imagination, but Howard gave her a somewhat frivolous impression.

Audrey pushed aside the discomfort in her heart and continued her lines with a smile. “Your literary talent is exceptional. I wonder when you’ll be available to spar with me?”

Howard’s lips curled into a smile, and his eyes held peculiar emotions. “Your Highness, you’re too kind.”

After the scene, Audrey found herself inexplicably put off by Howard. During the intermission, she deliberately chose a seat as far away from him as possible to take a break.

Anna headed to a nearby mall to purchase two large beverages. Audrey chatted and laughed with her while sipping her drink. However, halfway through, Anna’s eyes abruptly froze.

Audrey found it strange and followed her gaze. She turned around only to discover Howard smiling at them.

Why was he there?

Although Audrey didn’t hold Howard in high regard, she maintained a polite smile and inquired, “Mr. Howard? Is there something you need?”

Howard sported a smile that he found to be charming. “Miss Audrey? I’ve heard that you’ve been in the entertainment industry for a while.”

He took a seat in the chair beside Audrey.

Audrey’s back stiffened, but she subtly shifted her position and continued to

smile. “Yes… What can I help you with?”

As it was halftime, everyone was engrossed in their phones and consumed snacks. Essentially, no one noticed the activity in this remote corner.

Howard suddenly commented, “Miss Audrey, I believe your talent is rather promising. You might achieve fame in the future.” “Thank you,” Audrey responded with indifference.

What was this guy trying to do?

All of a sudden, Howard discreetly raised his hand. Shortly after, Audrey’s hand responded, and she found herself holding a firm paper card.

“You’re welcome to discuss the script with me.”

With that, Howard offered a mysterious smile and departed.

Audrey believed that Howard had given her a business card. She curiously opened her hand and noticed Anna approaching. She promptly exclaimed, “What’s this? It looks so familiar… The room card.

Audrey’s expression darkened rapidly.

No wonder she had an initial dislike for Howard upon meeting him. It appeared that he wasn’t a good character after all!

It was her first day interacting with Howard, and this unpleasant individual had the audacity to offer her a room card. What kind of person did he think she

Audrey silently cursed and quickly grasped the situation.

Howard was a popular celebrity. If he was so brazen as to give her a room card, he must have heard certain rumors. Otherwise, he might have assumed that she, a newcomer, lacked any influential connections and was easily manipulated..
