President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 54

"It doesn't matter, let’s take it. I believe Hazel can make it."

Jessica smiled gently and turned to look at Hazel, "Hazel, am I right?"

Hazel was not convinced because she had been robbed of the character.

She raised her chin proudly, "Sure!"

Nathan frowned.

The role, Claire Ye, was the best friend of the heroine. She held the hope to revenge for the country and was a role with forbearance and restraint.

But Hazel was tsundere and naive, and seemed to be far from the character of this role.

However, before she took the audition, Nathan would not judge her, lest affect her mood.

So he just showed them the script with the red line, told them which paragraph they should read, and reminded them to analyze the characters, especially the inner mind of the characters.

They got the script and went off to learn their lines.

Julia took Hazel to the side, while Jessica did not leave, but sat down next to Nathan, talking with him with a smile.

Natalia led Laura to the other side.

"How is it?" she whispered. “Are you confident about it?"

Laura nodded firmly, looking at the script.

But in no more than two seconds, her face became gloomy.

"No, Julia, I'm so nervous. What should I do?"

After all, this was her first time to contact such a big production, and it was really a rare opportunity for an actress.

If she had a good performance, she could have a bright future, but if she failed in the acting or even the audition, she could not get the role.

Natalia understood her nervousness and patted her on the back.

"Don't be nervous, imagine you are Claire Ye. Forget everything around and put yourself into it. Remember, don't think about anything else, and don't care about Jessica. You just need to believe you are Claire Ye, follow your heart, understand?"

Laura looked at her and nodded emphatically.

After appeasing her mood, Natalia went back and sat down behind Nathan.

From her point of view, the situation on the stage could be seen intuitively, besides, close-up performance could be seen from the monitor in front of Nathan.

It didn't take long for both of them to say they were ready.

Nathan let people take them to make up.

In costume dramas, the garment was very important, and sometimes it could better highlight the character's aura.

It was not long before the two people put on their makeup, changed their clothes and came out of the dressing room.

Hazel was a web celebrity with a pointed jaw, later in order to catch up with the trend, and she had a plastic surgery, so that her jaw became more pointed.

Not only that, probably because she knew she would see Nathan today, in order to make herself look better, she had an injection a few days ago.

Unfortunately, the digestion time was too short, so the hyaluronic acid had not been completely eliminated, resulting in a bloated face, which showed that she had had an injection of hyaluronic acid.

Laura was different.

She had a round face, but natural and lovely. Originally he thought that her temperament and face shape did not match the role Claire Ye with perseverance character.

But he did not expect that she was good-looking after dressing up.

She not only inspired Claire Ye’s forbearing temperament, but also had a kind of natural indifference and cold feeling.

This was a complicated person.

After all, she used to be a princess high above the empire, and her pride was sent out from the bones. Even if the country was destroyed, even if she could only endure shame in the hands of the enemy, she did not throw off the pride in the bones.

So, she had to hide.

But she could not hide them all, so he made such a character with all kinds of temperament.

After Laura came out, Nathan nodded approvingly.

The first scene was played by Hazel.

This was a fight play. A middle-aged actress acted with them. The captured princess was thrown into the Imperial Office of DL Country to be a geisha, and the middle-aged actress acted a court lady of the Imperial Office, responsible for teaching disobedient Claire Ye and forcing her to obey orders.

The play began soon.

The court lady was sitting there. Claire Ye was marched forward by several strong men to kneel on the ground.

The court lady looked at her and said, "I heard you don't want to learn dance?"

Claire Ye just entered the palace. Although had experienced of national ruin, she still had princess's lofty and pride.

She stared at the court lady indignantly. Her eyes were firm and cold.

"I am a princess of the XY Country. How can I learn such cheap skills? Kill me as you please. There's no way I will obey!"

Just then, a whip fell on her body.

Claire Ye felt the pain and snorted, and the court lady sneered.

"Princess? The XY Country has long been dead, and now you are just a humble sinful slave. His Majesty has already spared you a favor and let you join the Imperial Office. You don't be thankful, but you are stubborn and still call yourself the princess. Do you want a rebel?”

The court lady’s tone was stern. Claire Ye’s face turned pale out of pain.

After a while, she bit her teeth and spit, "bah!"

That defiant air completely exasperated the court lady.

She began to whip, and was about to hit again, but the maid next to her quickly persuaded her to stop.

The maid whispered in her ear, “Court Lady, she was kept under his majesty's behest and sent to the Imperial Office for treatment. She may be summoned one of these days. If she gets hurt, I am afraid you will be published."

The court lady seemed to be aware of this and could only suppress her temper.

For a moment, she sneered.

"If I can't teach you, can't I teach anyone else? Bring the people up to me!”

There was silence on the stage.

No one came up.

Hazel looked at the open stage and was stunned.

Natalia curled her lips.

In costume dramas, many scenes were difficult to set up, so most of the time they needed to act in front of the green cloth.

Nathan had the intention to test them and wanted them to act without real objects.

For a moment, Hazel seemed to realize this and she looked gloomy.

She was a web celebrity, and had not learnt acting skill. Although she had shot several plays in these years, they were all small productions.

Some of the actors she cooperated with were basically the same as her level, and she did not want to learn it, so she had no progress in acting.

Plus, she didn't really like this play. After all, the costume drama needed hard work, and there were many fighting scenes, so it must be tired.

If it weren't for the size of the part and the size of the production, she wouldn't do it!

Because of this, she didn't take it seriously at all. She thought she could make it without effort.

But now there were no actors to act with her, how could she act?

The court lady was already moving on to the rest of the story.

"You are the princess of the XY Country. I dare not beat you, but these people are just a group of sinful slaves. Even if they die, no one care. So you have to learn it today. If you are obedient, they may survive, if you are not, don’t blame me then.”
