President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 55

With these words she gave the whip a violent blow in the air.

A crisp sound broke out, and Hazel was startled.

She may be scared or nervous, and she stuttered and forgot lines.

"Don't you dare do hurt them, I, I..."

What was that after?

Hazel’s face turned pale. Among the audience, Nathan frowned.

Jessica's face was gloomy too.

She spent a lot of effort to persuade Nathan let Hazel play this role, but today there was a competitor and Hazel did a bad job!

It was not that she was good to Hazel, but these years she was in the entertainment industry alone, and she felt more or less isolated.

Hazel was not only her cousin, but also signed up to work in her studio. Even if she became popular, she could only be a marionette in her hand.

Not only that, a lot of things she could not deal with could be settled by Hazel. She was really a rare good pawn.

Thinking of this, she turned her head and said to Nathan with a smile, "Hazel has been working hard all the time. It's her first time she takes part in your play. She is nervous."

Nathan was still gloomy on face, but he said nothing.

He saved Jessica’s face.

Behind, Natalia silently hook her lips.

She knew that sometimes even if she did nothing, the enemy had already messed up

That was the power gap.

Hazel finally remembered the lines, stumbling through the last half of the play.

But the effect… well, that was a matter of opinion.

Next, it was Laura's turn.

Jessica looked down slightly. She suddenly thought of something and said, "Director Nathan, I've been acting for so long, but I've never tried to play the court lady. Let me act as the court lady this time!"

Nathan frowned and didn’t think it was a good idea.

But it was hard to say no, so he looked up at Laura.

"What do you think?"

Laura was surprised, too.

However, since Nathan didn’t refuse, as a junior, she could not refuse.

She could only nod, "Ok."

Jessica smiled.

After changing her clothes, she sat down in a chair.

Laura acted as Claire Ye. She was also pressed by several strong men.

Compared with Hazel's exaggeration, she was much more restrained and calm.

Her eyes were fixed on the court lady sitting there, and though she did not speak, her cold eyes expressed her anger.

"I heard you don’t want to learn dancing?" said the court lady coldly.

Claire Ye knelt on the ground. With her hands tied, she raised her head proudly.

Word by word, she said coldly, “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!"

The last four words were almost out gnashing of teeth.

With courage and determination.

The whip fell down.

Claire Ye shivered all over out of pain.

In the audience, Natalia suddenly changed her face.

When Hazel auditioned, although the court lady waved a whip, she skillfully hit in the open space next to her.

So even though it sounded loud, it didn't hit her.

Jessica now took the whip and directly hit on Laura?

Laura didn't seem to expect her to hit her, so she looked at Jessica in surprise, and Jessica was speaking her next line.

She felt a burning pain in her arm but she quickly adjusted herself.

She gritted her teeth and stared at the court lady in disgust. "Bah!" She spat.

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

It was still no physical performance.

Laura was clearly better prepared than Hazel.

Even if there was no one acting with her, it was realistic and emotional.

Facing the air, she was angry and heartache, with endless pain and determination in the red eyes, but there was a hint of control over the helplessness.

"Zhijun Guan ! Since you treated my people like this, if I turn over, I will kill you by a thousand cuts to pay for the blood of my clan!"

Angry roar sounded in the stage. Claire Ye was pulled down by a group of strong men.

The audition was over.

There was a burst of applause from the audience.

Natalia stood up and smiled at Nathan. "How is it, Director Nathan? Did the actress I recommended disappoint you?"

Nathan nodded with a smile.

"Very good, the performance is relaxed, even in the face of emergency, she quickly responded. She is worth cultivating."

Natalia blinked her eyes and looked at Jessica who was walking back from the stage.

"Sorry, Director Nathan, I was deep into the play and had not controlled myself well."

Nathan waved his hand, "It doesn’t matter, but you should be careful. Although we pursue the play quality, we need to be reasonable, especially to protect the safety of actors."

Jessica smiled, "Director Nathan, you are right."

Then she looked at Natalia.

"Sister, congratulations on getting a part for your actress."

Natalia looked at her, ironically hooked lips.

"When I heard you won an award last year, I always thought your acting was getting better! Today, you forgot what you were doing when acting with a junior actress. I think you are not that good."

Jessica's complexion stiffened.

At this time, Hazel and Laura had changed their clothes and came out.

She took a deep breath and smiled, "I can understand your love for your actress, but I did that to better stimulate her mood. Laura, don't you think so?"

She said, turning to look at Laura.

Laura looked at Jessica, then at Natalia next to her.

Although she was in grievance, she was only a small actress, if she said more, it will be unavoidable to cause trouble to Natalia.

She could only nod, "Yes, you are right."

Jessica showed a satisfied smile.

Nathan found Natalia was angry, so he said with a smile.

"Well, it is set. Natalia, you take her to my office to confirm the contract details when you are available. And Jessica, study about the script. The play is on in next month. We should shoot smoothly!"

Jessica nodded, "Ok."

Natalia's eyes turned, and she suddenly said, “Director Nathan, I have always liked the role Fanghua Xie. I learnt there is a sister rivalry play, can I try?"

Hazel was unconvinced since her role had been taken away.

Now hearing that she wanted to take part in, she immediately said in disdain, “You are not an actress, play what?"

"I just want to play? My sister has always been so kind to me, I don't think she would mind doing something as simple as acting for me!"

Natalia looked at Jessica with interest.
