Chapter 65

Looking at Madeleine’s face that was even paler than the wall, Eliza curled her lips. She knew that she had guessed it correctly. The script with a torn section was indeed prepared for Madeleine by Raul. She began to prepare the script in a good mood. The preparation time was only ten minutes. Ten minutes later, the first one to perform was Eliza. When she entered the studio, she found that she knew two of the five judges today. One was the best actress, Roseane, and the other was Matthew. The remaining three, in addition to Director Raul, were two senior producer in the industry. After taking a deep breath, Eliza started her performance. Even though she only had ten minutes to prepare, Eliza had spent all these years analyzing the script for Jay and Madeleine. As such, she quickly divided the emotions and mental state of the character into four different levels, gradually advancing level by level. From the crazy laughter to the feeling of despair, in just two minutes, she managed to bring the character to life. After she finished her performance, a thunderous applause broke out in the theater room. “I didn’t expect Eliza to be so skilled!” In the waiting room outside, the three actresses sighed with emotion while watching. “A stand-in who just turned into an official actress. It’s really amazing to see her performance!” “I don’t think I can beat her.” “I don’t think I can do that either…” After that, the three actresses turned around and glanced at Madeleine. “What do you think?” Madeleine bit her lip. She had to admit that Eliza’s ability…

was indeed formidable. However, she must get the lead actress of this movie! If it was not for the role of the female lead, why did she sleep with Raul? Raul was old and perverted. Every time she was with him, she tried hard not to let herself vomit!

She had done so much for this role. How could she just let it go? What’s more… Madeleine narrowed her eyes.

Today, Raul had bribed the other two judges, with the exception of Roseane and Matthew. If these three people had given her high scores. She might not lose to Eliza. To ensure fairness of the audition, the score would be announced at the end of the audition so that it would not affect the performance of the other actresses. After Eliza’s performance, her score was taken away by the staff. Immediately afterwards, it was the next performer. Raul was stunned as soon as the actress began to perform. This was what he had specially prepared for Madeleine yesterday! But this woman played it? What about his little darling, Madeleine? Roseane saw Raul’s absent-minded look. She smiled faintly. “Raul, be more professional.” Raul finally came back to his senses. The actresses performed one by one. Madeleine was the last one. When Madeleine came to the stage, Raul especially encouraged her. “This actress, I think highly of you.” “Your temperament and appearance are both suitable as the female lead.” “I look forward to our frequent cooperation in the future.”

These words were actually very clear. He was encouraging Madeleine. Even if they couldn’t cooperate this time, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future. Eliza’s legs elegantly crossed as she sat outside. A sneer curled up at the corners of her lips. “A frequent cooperation in the future?” When she publishes the photos of Raul and Madeleine, let alone Madeleine, Raul himself would never be able to live a good life in the future. What cooperation could he be talking about? In the studio, Madeleine was in a mess. Several actresses were shocked.

“Wasn’t it rumored that she would be the best new actress for the Golden Bull Award this year?” “With this kind of performance?” “How about resorting to the unspoken rules? Even my dog can act better than her!” After they finished, they turned to look at Eliza. “Congratulations.” “Seems like this role belongs to you.” Eliza smiled faintly. “Thank you.” After the audition, everyone congratulated Eliza. They felt that Eliza was definitely going to succeed. But who would have thought that when the score was out, Eliza’s score was actually not high. Even if Matthew and Roseane had given a high score for her, the remaining three people had failed her. The remaining three actresses looked at each other in dismay. Madeleine, who was standing aside, laughed. She knew it! Now, Eliza had two high scores and three fails. And she would get at least three high scores! After all, among the judges, only Roseane and Matthew were loyal to her! In the end, she was still the leading actress! Thinking about all of this, she proudly walked to Evelyn’s side and patted her on the shoulder. “I’m sorry.” “Do you regret now? You should have just accepted the one hundred thousand yuan from Jay just now?” “But it’s too late to regret.” With that, she lowered her head and fiddled with her fingernails. “I have to go back and study how to play the lead actress role.” “By the way.”

She approached Eliza’s ear and said, “Next week’s Golden Bull Award, the best new actress for this year, is still me.” “Even if you won last time, I can still beat you with the Purple City movie and my Golden Bull Award.” “Eliza, you can’t beat me.” As they were talking, Madeleine’s score was announced. It was exactly as what Madeleine thought.

Three high scores, two fails. The staff announced very excitedly, “Everyone, the scores have been announced. The result of the audition for the lead actress of Purple City this time is—” “Miss Madeleine!”

Madeleine, who had expected the result, stood up with a smile. She clutched her chest and pretended to be surprised. “I didn’t expect it to be me!” “Thank you for your trust in me. I will do my best…” Before she could finish her sentence, Matthew, who was sitting in the judge’s seat, stood up and said, “Wait.” He crossed his arms around his chest, with a cold smile on his lips. “I wanted to give you all a chance, but I didn’t expect you all to detest your reputation so much.” “Then don’t blame me for being rude!” After saying that, Matthew got up and pulled the curtain behind them apart. Behind the judges, there was a room! In the room, several senior directors and producer of the entertainment circle were sitting there, as well as… the lead actor of Purple City, Julian. Looking at the people behind him, Raul’s face suddenly turned pale. One of the senior directors stood up and said, “We all saw the audition just now.” “I don’t understand why the three are not willing to give Eliza, who has excellent acting skills, a pass, but are willing to give full marks to Madeleine, who can only fake crying.” “Not only can we not understand, even the lead actor Mr. Julian finds it incredible.” “Can you give us a reason?” Raul’s face turned ashy.

“This…” “This…”

At this time, Julian stood up calmly and turned to leave. “If the female actress is at this level.” “I refuse to be leading actor.”
