Chapter 154 You're Too Bad
But she didn't think too much. After all, in the circumstances, it would be best if Lara was willing to think like this and wrong herself for the time-being.
Erin called Freddie soon.
Freddie didn't answer her directly, but just let her ask Alvin on her own.
He had lost the bet, so naturally he wouldn't intervene in the casting. Alvin would decided everything by himself.
Erin had no choice but to call Alvin again.
Although Alvin was not easy-going, he concerned with facts and not with individuals.
Knowing that Lara wanted to play the supporting role, he only thought for a moment and then agreed.
In fact, when he agreed, Freddie was next to him.
He was asking Alvin to return the computer to him. Seeing Alvin hung up the phone, he asked with a faint smile, "Don't you like Lara? Why did you agree to let her play the supporting role?"
Alvin was taken aback and said, "I didn't say that I didn't like her. I'm not familiar with her."
"You refused her without thinking before."
Alvin thought for a while and replied, "Her temperament is not suitable for playing the leading role."
"Is she suitable for the supporting role?"
"Yes."
Alvin answered seriously, "The temperament of the supporting role suits her very well."
Freddie sat there and was dumbfounded. After a long while, he reacted.
Immediately afterwards, he burst into laughter.
"Alvin, you... are too bad!"
"Cannon Fodder Strategy" was a drama about how the leading role bridged over difficulties. The supporting role was scheming and always caused trouble for the leading role, but she gained nothing in the end.
It could be said that she was the most miserable supporting role ever.
The proportion of her part in the drama was almost the same as the leading role, but she had been suffering all the time.
Alvin was a little confused and and didn't know why he was laughing.
He frowned and repeated very solemnly, "I'm serious. She really suits the role's temperament."
Freddie waved his hand, "Fine. I see. Don't talk about it anymore. It's so funny."
He stood up and patted his suit, "Well, since you've chosen them, I wish you success. But I have to remind you that the relationship between Clarissa and Lara is a little complicated. You have to be mentally prepared for this, and you can deal with it in case something happens on the set."
Alvin was stunned, and didn't quite understand what he meant.
But he didn't ask too much. He was almost uninterested in anything other than filming.
Therefore, he just nodded.
At the same time.
Clarissa chose the right time and told Anderson that she was going to act in a drama.
At first, Anderson didn't agree with her, but Clarissa insisted and he had read the script. He knew that the drama was about how the leading role defeated the supporting role. Although the leading role had a boyfriend in the drama, their love was pure and they didn't kiss or hug each other, so he agreed.
Besides, it was the beginning of spring and the weather was so good. Such a short drama would only be shot for one or two months at most. He thought that she could act in the drama for fun and didn't object anymore.
After reaching an agreement with Anderson, Clarissa arranged the work in Starlight and Energence International Crop before she joined the TV crew.
After the casting, Alvin quickly chose a time to start the shoot.
They would officially start the shoot one month later. Before that, they need to shoot the posters first.
Clarissa went to the studio early that morning. She put on makeup first because she was the leading actress.
The leading actor was named Dorian Wilmore. It was said that he had just graduated from university. He was also a new actor and was not well known.
However, he was pretty handsome and very polite. He looked like girls' first love when he smiled. The girls in the crew were attracted to him and always smiled at him.
They met each other in the studio and knew each other.
Dorian had a good personality. Although he was a new actor, he was quite capable. He finished the shoot quickly and perfectly.
When he took pictures together with Clarissa, he took great care of her feelings. Seeing this, other girls liked him more.
Lara didn't come until other main actors finished their shoots.
"Oh, you are all finished. I'm so sorry that I'm late."
She came in with a smile. The photographer was busy taking pictures of other actors, but he had been waiting for her because he needed to take a picture of all the actors and actresses.
Seeing Lara coming in, he was not happy, but he didn't say anything.
Lara was taken to put on makeup, and soon she came out to greet everyone.
When she walked to Clarissa, she smiled especially brightly.
"Clarissa, congratulations, you get this role. Don't worry, since we are in the same crew, if you have any problems, I will definitely help you."
She spoke warmly and smiled extremely sincerely. Those who didn't know would think that they had a close relationship.
Clarissa glanced at her blandly with no expression.
Without answering her, she directly said to the photographer.
"Everyone is here. Let's take a group photo!"
The photographer nodded.
Clarissa naturally stood in the center because she was the leading actress.
Lara stood beside her. Watching everyone flattering Clarissa, she clenched her fists tightly with hatred.
She thought, "Clarissa! Just wait and see!"
"I'll let you be proud for the time-being, and after the shoot begins..."
"Humph, I will ruin all your reputation!"
The shoot went well. In the evening, an activity about the film festival was held in Visstead. As the president of Starlight and the manager of the public relations department in Energence International Crop, Clarissa had received the invitation and would attend it with Evelyn.
Freddie and Teddy would also attend it.
Although the filming of "Destiny Fragrance" was almost finished, it hadn't been officially finished yet. Freddie came here for advance publicity.
Lauren didn't come because she was not feeling well. As the third supporting actress, Evelyn took the responsibility of publicity.
They almost arrived at the same time. After exchanging the usual pleasantries, Freddie and Teddy went to greet the people they knew.
Clarissa stayed with Evelyn.
Evelyn wore a black dress and looked beautiful. It was her first time to participate in such an occasion, and she was a little shy.
Clarissa smiled and comforted her. While they were talking, they heard a cry of surprise from the door.
"Marty, I heard that you invested in a costume drama recently? What role do you think I am suitable for?"
"Marty, you gave Lulu a diamond necklace at her birthday. Today is my birthday. You can't favor her more than me."
They looked over and saw a thin and tall figure who was surrounded by women walking in.
Clarissa was taken aback.
Marty?
Why was he here?
