Chapter 172
The weather in Capern City has been unpredictable recently. Grace sat in front of the floor–to–ceiling window and drew. He sneezed a few times,
She hurriedly put on her clothes, but she still couldn’t escape the glorious cold.
Grace’s comics had been updated by almost two–thirds.
Ever since she signed the contract and found out that the fan who tipped her was Brian, he had never tipped her again.
Grace would still deliver food to Justin whenever he had the time.
As soon as she finished packing the food, her phone rang
She glanced at the caller ID, and her eyes darkened. Brian. Why was he calling her?
Her intuition told her that nothing good was going to happen.
She slowly picked up the phone and asked coldly, “Mr. Francis, what’s the matter?”
Brian was slightly dissatisfied when he heard her indifferent and distant tone.
“Your comics is ready to launch. The audition will begin at two in the afternoon, on the second floor of the Prosperity Pavilion.”
There was a forceful command in his tone that made Grace uncomfortable.
“Mr. Francis, the audition is between your producer and the director, right? What do you mean by telling me? Do you want me to go?”
Brian sneered. “You’re right. I want you to come. Moreover, you have to come. Look at the contract. Article 18. clearly states that Party B is obligated to assist Party A in completing the project better. Choosing a role is a very important thing. Only you know every role the best. Therefore, Miss Sherman must participate in the entire audition.
Grace rubbed her temples. “Brian, I can handle choosing the main actor, but I don’t need to be involved in selecting the supporting actor, correct?”
Brian paused for a moment. “Do you have a cold?”
Grace did not want to talk to him anymore and hung up.
She glanced at the lunch box and called Justin. “Justin, I’m sorry. The movie audition is about to start. I can’t deliver lunch today. You have to order takeout.”
Justin paused for a moment before saying, “Alright, be careful.”
“Yeah,” replied Grace.
Grace finished her lunch and looked at the weather outside. She changed into a T–shirt and a sweater before heading to the Prosperity Pavilion.
Chapter 172
Grace had just arrived at the audition venue when he saw Brian sitting on the judging panel.
To her surprise, Ava was sitting beside her.
They seemed to be very close. Ava poured coffee for him and personally brought it to his mouth, looking at him affectionately.
Grace paused at the door, contemplating Ava’s presence with Brian and questioning when their relationship had
become so intimate.
Upon discovering details about their relationship, Grace felt a sharp emotional pain, as if a thorn had pierced her
heart..
Mr. Booth was the first to greet her. “Miss Sherman, come over quickly. This way!
Grace nodded slightly and walked over.
When Ava saw her, his lips curled into a mocking smile. When Grace’s gaze swept towards her, he smiled provocatively at her. Grace sat down silently.
At two o’clock, the audition officially began.
Although Grace was an unknown newcomer, many popular celebrities still came to audition for S.E. After all, S.E. was not short of money and was a big production.
Brian sat two seats away from her, occasionally glancing in her direction.
He saw her take the bottle of mineral water that lay on the table. She put her finger on the cap, retracted it.
then finally
Brian pursed his lips and turned to Ava. “Get the property management to change all the water to hot.”
Ava asked in confusion, “Is it very cold?”
