Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1926

Chapter 1926 Practicing Lines

Zayden mindlessly nodded as he was gobbling down the honey shortbread without listening to Maya. “Our progress is delayed because of the constant problems faced while filming scenes featuring Zayden and Yuvan.” Sheila let out a sigh.

“What’s wrong with Yuvan? Did he not improve on his acting skills?”

“He’s always changing the script on his own! The director was confused by Yuvan and Zayden when the two of them filmed a scene together this evening. With Zayden always forgetting his lines and Yuvan’s tendency to modify the script, none of their dialogues were as intended in the script. The worst part is, their terrible performance affected Joy as well.” Sheila sighed again after glancing at Zayden.

Zayden wore an innocent expression as he explained, “Mommy, I memorized my script thoroughly, but my mind would go blank whenever I’m on the set. I don’t know why this is happening.”

“That’s because you haven’t memorized your script well enough. There’s no way you will forget if you put in the effort. Ask yourself this—why doesn’t Joy forget her lines?”

“How would I know? Perhaps she’s smart because she inherited her parents’ good genes. I do not have such perks,” Zayden muttered. “You’re full of excuses! If you forget your script again tomorrow, you and Yuvan can quit your roles.”

Zayden appeared petulant as he took a quick look at Sheila. He then decided to spend the night memorizing his script. “Aunt Sheila, why don’t I bring Zayden with me to Imperial Garden so that he can practice his lines with Joy?”

Zayden was overjoyed and was eager to go to Imperial Garden. Sophia agreed with Maya’s suggestion as well. Finally, Sheila conceded and reminded Zayden to behave when he arrived at Imperial Garden.

“Don’t worry, Mommy. I will be on my best behavior.”

“Rest assured, Aunt Sheila. We will take good care of Zayden.”

With that, Zayden went to Imperial Garden with Maya.

Joy told Zayden sternly when she was informed of the purpose behind his visit, “In that case, you better work hard because I will be supervising you!”

“Let’s memorize our scripts together. You don’t have to supervise me.”

“I know my lines by heart. These scenes should have already been completed if it weren’t for you and Yuvan. My dream is to become a child star and earn a lot of money, so you better not hinder me!”
