Although Kyla Nellifa would like to continue staying at Chen Zhao’s place, it was clearly impossible.
They were only acquaintances, or more like a doctor and his patient.
Moreover, Chen Zhao and Fali had their own life.
Lastly, as a celebrity, her schedule was completely filled.
Kyla only stayed for two days.
It was really a memorable experience.
Kyla stared at the shrinking mansion in the rear mirror in silence.
It was as if she was bidding farewell to a fairy tale. After all, she still had to return to reality.
“Ms. Kyla, actually you could have stayed for another day.”
“Have you forgotten about the audition this afternoon?”
Kyla had to adjust her emotions and get ready for the audition later.
Of course, Kyla had been to hundreds of auditions, from being unknown to very popular.
But even now, she still had to give it her best.
No big production would choose their female lead carelessly.
Even a top celebrity could not guarantee that she would receive the role.
Firstly, there would be competition between various agencies and investors.
And then the actor’s appearance, popularity, pay, and acting skills.
A top-tier actress might not be an Oscar award winner, but at least she needed to have some acting skills.
If Kyla only had appearance, like her plan a few years ago, she would never become a top-tier actress.
Acting skills sound mysterious, but they are actually real.
When you act with a supporting actor, you would always be the center of attention.
When you act with the male lead, you would not be ignored.
Even in an ensemble cast, the audience would also notice you.
Of course, not every movie gives its actors an opportunity to perform.
In movies like Transformers, the leads are really more like supporting roles.
The real leads are the robots created by CGI.
Normally, top-tier actors would not take those roles, unless the pay was really high…
The audition this time was in the Hollywood Studios, where many movie companies had gathered.
People looking for opportunities roamed here every day. They would even stop passing cars and attempt to sell their scripts.
However, the success rate was clearly almost zero.
When Kyla reached the studio, there was already a long queue of young actresses.
Most of them had agencies, while the rest were here to try their luck.
Of course, Kyla did not have to queue like these girls.
Moreover, they were auditioning for different roles.
These girls were probably only aiming for a role with a minute of screen time, like a receptionist or a waitress in a restaurant.
Kyla was very lucky, or rather she had a powerful background.
She did not have to work from the bottom. Her very first role was a secondary female lead.
Kyla entered another audition area directly.
There were significantly fewer people here.
The actresses waiting at the entrance were all somewhat popular.
“Kyla, here.”
A lady who was about the same age as Kyla waved at her.
It was Kyla’s cousin, and she was similarly from a rich family.
In Hollywood, only women like them, who were relatives and not direct competitors, could become real friends.
If they were like the background-less girls outside competing for the same role, they would become enemies at once, even if they had been best friends.
“Hey, Fanny!” The two gave each other a warm hug. Kyla asked, “Are you here for the female lead too?”
“No, please, I’m not even on the C-list. My agency has arranged a role for me. It’s only a brief shot,” Fanny Leese said, looking at Kyla in envy. “When will I become as popular as you?”
“Soon. You’ll soon be like me.”
“Kyla, what lotion have you been using? Your skin looks amazing.” Fanny felt Kyla’s arm.
It felt more like a teenage girl’s. Kyla’s skin was so smooth that the pores could not even be seen.
Fanny almost thought she was touching a piece of silk. She could not feel any roughness.
In fact, it was not just Kyla’s arm, but also her face.
With her light makeup, she was filled with youth.
Fanny was really jealous of Kyla’s skin as she kept touching her hand.
Eventually, Fanny could not help but feel Kyla’s face. “God, did you go for a facelift? No, even a facelift can’t be this good.”
“I know a…”
Suddenly, a woman walked in from outside.
She looked over thirty.
After she entered, she scanned the crowd, searching for someone.
Finally, her eyes locked onto Fanny.
“You bitch!”
The woman approached Fanny with a glass of liquid in her hand.
Fanny panicked upon seeing the woman and turned to run.
But the woman was already next to her. She poured the liquid at Fanny.
“No!” Fanny blocked the liquid with her hand.
The next moment, she felt a sharp pain in her palm.
“Ah…” Fanny covered her hand and crashed to the ground in agony.
The woman was about to act further when Kyla, who had recovered from the surprise, knocked her over.
By then, the guard at the side also reacted.
He quickly charged over and subdued the woman.
Kyla immediately poured the mineral water she had onto Fanny’s hand. “Fanny, how is it?”
“My hand… My hand…”
“Marian, call the ambulance!”
Fanny was in deep pain, suffering a large burn on her hand.
It was clear what the woman had poured on her.
Luckily, the liquid did not get onto her face.
Soon, the ambulance finally arrived and brought Fanny to the hospital.
Nevertheless, because of the accident, the audition had to be paused.
“Ms. Kyla, your arm.”
Marian noticed the obvious burn, which was about the size of a baby’s palm, on Kyla’s arm.
Kyla was in pain too. She had actually noticed it earlier.
The liquid might have splashed onto her arm when the woman poured it.
“Let’s apply Mr. Chen’s ointment and go to the hospital.”
Marian applied the ointment on Kyla’s arm. Immediately, she felt a wave of coolness.
“Wow… It’s much better now.”
