Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 54

She may have a round face, but she was natural and adorable. At first, her bearing and face shape did not work in her favor against a strong and perseverance character such as Nicole Block.

It never crossed anyone's mind that she would come out looking good after styling.

She not only inspired Nicole Block’s forbearing temperament, but also had a kind of natural indifference and conceit.

This was a fairly complicated person.

After all, she was once a princess of an empire, high above the masses.

There was no one above her other than the emperor. Her arrogance was bred in the bone. Even with her country and family in ruins, she could not get rid of it, despite falling in the hands of the enemy.

Hence, she had to hide.

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

After Victoria came out, Nathan nodded approvingly.

The first scene was played by Marie.

This was a fight play. A middle-aged actress would be running the lines with them. The captured princess was thrown into the Imperial correction chamber in Kyrma Empire to be a courtesan, and the middle-aged actress acted as the correction matron, in charge of taming the disobedient Nicole and subduing her.

The performance soon began.

The correction matron sat upright there while Nicole was forced onto her knees by a few strong men.

Fixing her gaze at her, the matron adopted a stem outlook. “"I heard you refuse to learn dancing?”

Nicole Block just entered the palace. Although her country and family were in shambles, she had the bearings of a royal attitude and conceited.

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

"I am a princess of the Yepa Empire. why should I acquire the lowly expertise of a performer? Kill me as you please, but you can never break my spirit!!"

Just then, a whip fell on her body.

Nicole felt the pain and snorted, and the matron sneered.

"Princess? The Yepa Empire has long gone, and now you are just a humble sinful slave. His Majesty was merciful to spare your life and put you into training. Instead of thanking your lucky stars, you're stupid and stubborn to claim yourself a princess. Do you want a rebel?”

The matron’s tone was stern. Nicole’s face turned pale out of pain.

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

The provoking demeanor threw the matron into a rage.

She raised the whip, assuming the position for another go when she was held back by the palace attendant beside.

The palace attendant whispered in her ear, “Matron, His Majesty specifically pardoned her and sent her to be taught in the correction chamber. His Majesty may one day summon her. We'd be in a tight spot if we hurt her."

The matron seemed to be aware of this, and could only suppress her temper.

For a moment, she sneered.

"If I can't teach you a lesson, but I can do so to others. Bring them to me!””

There was silence on the stage.

No one came up.

Marie stared at the vast stage dumbfounded.

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 screens.

Nathan was testing them in mind on their acting without props.

For a moment, Marie seemed to realize this and she wore a sullen look..

She was a online celebrity, and had not learnt acting skill. she never went through formal acting class. Although she was involved in a few plays throughout the years, these were small productions.

The actors she worked alongside with were basically of the same level. She was not fond of learning, and made no progress in acting.

Moreover, she did not carry any passion for this drama. Costume drama needed hard work. The boundless war and fighting scenes in this drama were laborious.

If it weren't for the importance of the role and 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 much effort.

Nonetheless, how was she to act without any supporting actors?

The matron was already onto the next line.

“I can't lay a finger on you because you're the princess of Yepa Empire, but they are merely enslaved prisoners. No one will say a word even if they die. Today, you'll learn. They'll live if you behave well. Otherwise, don't come blaming me then!”
