Chapter: 46
At this point, Lyndsey, who was just standing aside, confirmed what was happening. She already had a hunch earlier, but now she was sure.
It was partly her fault that this misunderstanding had come this far.
“Um... I'm actually not an actress," Maria replied. It seemed that she was also starting to realize what really was going on.
On the other hand, Francis smiled complacently. “Yes, I know. I have good eyes, so I can see that you didn't study in the film academy or had any formal acting training. Am I right?"
Maria nodded Lightly.
“Well, it doesn't matte Francis patted his chest, Letting out a very confident grin. “Not to brag, but I‘m the director you would want to mold you. I will teach you everything you need to know about acting!"
"Ahem!" Lyndsey wanted to butt in, in order to clear up this misunderstanding.
However, before she could speak, Francis glanced at her and said, “Lyndsey, how about you act the supporting role?"
With his eyes gleaming like a child, he didn't even hesitate to ask Lyndsey, the Best Actress winner of Yeez Entertainment, to play a supporting role.
Only Francis, the chief director, could make such an unreasonable request and not mind it.
Of course, Lyndsey wasn't offended at all. In fact, she would be glad if the director could really convince Maria to play the leading role.
When Maria had totally figured out what was going on, she had to stop it at once. "Mr. Jackson, you misunderstood something. I'm not here to audition. I am Mia, the author of the Legend of Anne. I just thought that you wanted some input from me, so I helped you try out the costumes. Anyway, I really have something else to do. Please excuse me."
Her eyes were getting so heavy that she was in an urgent need of a bed to have a good sleep.
Fortunately, Jade Hotel was just around the corner, and she thought that it would be a good choice to take a rest.
Without waiting for Francis' reply, Maria left the studio in a hurry Francis was left standing there utterly confused, while Lyndsey seemed to be quite disappointed.
“Lyndsey, did I hear it correctly? Did she just say that she's actually Mia?"
Francis even doubted that he was getting so old that he might be having some auditory hallucinations. The author of the Legend of Anne?
That Mia?!
The novels and short stories written by Mia were all masterpieces that
Francis loved so much.
He never thought that those ingenious languages, astonishing plots, and brilliant foreshadowing were written by someone who was basically a teenager.
How could it be possible? He thought that it was just a prank.
But then Lyndsey finally broke the silence. “Mr. Jackson, about your offer earlier, I'm willing to take the supporting role if you can really convince Mia to act Anne's character. Good luck!" Lyndsey revealed a playful smile, but her tone was indeed serious.
After saying that, she also left the studio quickly.
Eventually, after being in a daze for quite some time, Francis came to his senses. As if in a panic, he dialed the number of the president of Yeez Entertainment, Jeremy.
