Chapter 645:

Pretending to be distressed, her father said, “All my money’s gone, I’ve been cheated…”

Cutting him off, Lise asked sharply, “Cheated? By whom? You’ve been gambling again, haven’t you? You promised you were going to change when you started gambling. Now, I’m giving you thirty thousand a month, which is more than enough for a good life back here.”

“Why can’t you give up this awful habit?” Lise asked sharply, her frustration evident.

His grin vanished, replaced by a shameless expression. “Someone’s digging into that car crash,” he replied, his tone almost smug.

The following morning in Isonridge, a modern web drama project featuring youthful characters and straightforward plots had caught the company’s attention. Carrie viewed it as an ideal opportunity to train her new recruits, and she planned to use this project to help hone their skills.

The Morrison family had lent their support, assisting her in securing a university gymnasium in Isonridge to hold the auditions.

Leaving the Morrison residence, Carrie was accompanied by Arion, who mentioned he needed to stop for coffee and suggested she proceed to the venue without him.

It was her first time at the university, and she wasn’t familiar with the layout. The emptiness of the campus, especially heightened by the weekend, made it all the more confusing.

As she surveyed her surroundings, a distinct voice emerged from behind. “Are you lost?”

Turning around, she was greeted by the sight of a young man, his silhouette softly illuminated by the sunlight, making his features slightly blurred but his brown eyes strikingly clear.

Wearing a crisp white tracksuit and holding a basketball casually in his hands, he looked every bit the part of a typical college student heading to a game.

Carrie hesitated for a moment, shielded by her sunglasses and mask, but then, concerned about appearing impolite, she removed her sunglasses and sheepishly admitted, “Actually, I’m trying to find the gymnasium but seem to be a bit lost.”

The young man twirled the basketball at his side and flashed her a friendly smile. “I’m headed that way myself. I can show you.”

“Thank you,” she replied, slipping her sunglasses back on as they began walking together. They maintained a respectful distance, one that could easily accommodate another person between them. Halfway through their walk, he glanced at her and said, “The gym’s been booked by a film crew for auditions today. Are you auditioning?”

“Yes.” Noticing that he didn’t recognize her, Carrie simply went along with it, not feeling the need to elaborate.

Internally, she questioned if her disguise was too much. After all, she wasn’t particularly well-known.

“We’re here.” Upon arriving, he pointed towards a structure adorned with a clock and said, “That’s the gym right there. Just keep going straight.”noveldrama

“Thanks again,” Carrie said, waving as they parted ways.

He stood still, watching as Carrie gradually disappeared into the distance. Once she was out of sight, he lowered his head and quickly sent a message.

“Arion, for the favor of securing the gym, kindly forward me the list of today’s auditioning newcomers.”
