Chapter 1003 A Good Show
"This won't do!" Cheryl closed the script in disgust. "This Delilah character is clearly a third-rate role, and she's a homewrecker. She's not likable at all! How can I play such a role? If this airs, I'll definitely get criticized!"
Chad looked at Cheryl and pointed to a room not far away. "Ms. Russell, although the character isn't well-liked, she has a lot of screen time! Playing a villain really tests your acting skills, and if you do well, it's easy to win awards! Look, there are a lot of actors in that room waiting to see the director, all hoping to get a role. If you really don't want to play it, you'll miss this opportunity. Many people want this role!"
Cheryl was still hesitant; she didn't want to play a villain.
Just then, Christina walked out of the room and rushed to Chad, grabbing his arm. "Chad, if she doesn't want to play it, do you think I could play Delilah? I think Delilah has a lot of screen time, and if I do well, it will definitely get a lot of attention. I want to play this role!"
"Christina, what are you doing here?"
Seeing Christina rush out, Cheryl's face changed instantly.
Christina turned her head, pretending to have just seen her. "Cheryl, if you don't want to play it, just leave! I worked hard to get this audition opportunity. I don't mind playing a villain. I believe that as an actor, you can achieve success with any role!"
After saying that, Christina ignored her and continued to talk to Chad. "Chad, give me this opportunity. I will definitely cherish it and do my best to play this role well."
Chad showed a helpless expression. "It's not up to me. The director said that only Cheryl's image fits the role. But now that she doesn't want to play it, I can talk to the director and see if you can try?"
"Who said I don't want to play it!" Cheryl, anxious, immediately changed her mind and grabbed Chad. "I want to play this role. Arrange the audition for me quickly!"
Chad looked at Cheryl. "Didn't you just say you didn't want to play it?"
"I didn't think it through just now. Now I have. I will definitely play it well. Besides, didn't the director say I was the most suitable? There's no need to let some overconfident people try!" Cheryl still didn't want to play the role, but she didn't want Christina to get it even more!
Chad immediately agreed. "Alright, let's pretend nothing happened just now!" Then he turned to Christina. "You see that. Try looking for other auditions."
"Chad, can't you really let me try?" Christina frowned.
"Sorry!"
Christina sighed helplessly and ran back to the room.
Cheryl watched her quick departure, her eyes full of pride. "Christina, you think you can compete with me for roles? Give it up! You'll never beat me!"
The audition started quickly.
The male lead and Cheryl, playing Delilah, were walking down the street when the female lead rushed out and slapped Cheryl hard. "Connor Wall, didn't you say you were in a meeting? Who is this woman?"
Cheryl was slapped hard and felt very annoyed. How could the actress playing the female lead hit her so hard in an audition?
She covered the side of her face that was hit and angrily delivered her lines. "Who are you? Why are you going crazy here? Why did you hit me?"
"Who am I?" The female lead pointed at the male lead, Connor. "I am Connor's wife! You're entangled with a married man. You have no shame, you homewrecker!"
Cheryl glanced at the male lead, completely unafraid, and said confidently, "What good is being married? He told me he doesn't love you at all. The one who isn't loved is the real homewrecker!"
Christina stood in the monitoring room, watching the 'good show' in the studio.
Cheryl's other acting was mediocre, but she was really good at playing a homewrecker, very hateful!
Billy had found professional actors for Christina. Even though they knew it wasn't a real shoot, they were very dedicated and professional in their performance.
The female lead, with tears in her eyes, glared at the male lead. "Is what she said true? Connor, I'm asking you, is what she said true? You don't love me? Have you forgotten how you begged me when you were pursuing me?"
Connor rolled his eyes at the female lead, showing great impatience. "Can you stop making a scene here? If people see us, you might not be embarrassed, but I will be!"
"Embarrassed? When you couldn't even come up with a few hundred dollars, I was with you. Why didn't you feel ashamed then?" The female lead reached out, pulling at Connor's clothes, trying to find a trace of affection in his eyes.
Seeing this, Cheryl reached out and pushed the female lead to the ground. "I think you should stop pestering Connor! Yes, you were with him for many years, but that's in the past. He loves me now. If you really love him, you should step aside and let us be happy."
The female lead stumbled back and fell to the ground. "You want me to step aside? I am his legal wife! You, a young woman with no job or proper life, rushing to be a home wrecker! Is this how your family taught you to behave?"
"Our love is real. He loves me, not you. Your marriage is meaningless." Cheryl squatted down in front of the female lead, looking at her with great disdain. "I advise you to get a divorce. Maybe I can get Connor to give you some breakup money. Otherwise, you'll get nothing!"
The female lead looked at the two of them with hatred, suddenly breaking down and screaming as she lunged at Cheryl, ready to fight her!
This scene wasn't in Cheryl's script, and it caught her off guard.
By the time she reacted, she had already been knocked to the ground by the female lead.
"Bitch! How dare you be a homewrecker!" The female lead slapped Cheryl's face twice. Only then did the male lead slowly step forward to pull the female lead away. "Stop it!"
Cheryl stood up, looking at the director with a face full of grievance. "Director, what's going on?"
