Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 42

Chapter 42

Stella gritted her teeth. “Actually, you remind me of something. As long as I’m healthy and sleep with a regular man, I can get pregnant. The one who needs supplements is you!” After she said that, she stuffed the decoction into his arms, “You can keep the drink to yourself!”

She finished talking and slammed the door before she left. Keegan lowered his gaze and looked at the decoction with a bewildered expression. When Maya had finished cleaning up, Keegan had already left. The bowl left on the coffee table was already empty. The nanny took out her phone and took a picture before sending it.

When Stella rushed to the hotel, she was a few minutes later than the agreed time. Felicity had been waiting for her from much earlier. Once they met, she ridiculed her in a low voice. “So much pressure. I initially thought we would be early if we arrived an hour earlier. Instead, we are the last! Being a middle to lower–class actor is so difficult. People are breaking their skulls just to snatch such a role.”

Stella glanced along the corridor, and she saw that there were actually twenty to thirty people standing there. Some of them were artists who came independently, and some had their managers with them. Just by counting some of them, there were close to twenty competitors. Everyone touched up their makeup, warmed up their voices, and even stretched their legs by pressing them on the wall. All of the actresses were very pretty, without exception.

The bit of confidence Stella had in her looks suddenly faltered. She was kept captive by Keegan for too long and assumed that having a beautiful face would allow her to do whatever she wanted. Yet, in actual fact, there were too many beautiful people in this industry. Beauty, instead, was the most normal thing there.

To be able to distinguish oneself from the group of people who already have some professional acting experience in this field was to rely on their own professional competence. The face was, at most, the cherry on top.

Recognizing this point, Stella could not help but feel nervous.

Felicity had also noticed this and comforted her in a low voice. “There is no need to be so nervous. Just treat it as an assignment in university. Just perform steadily and don’t overthink. If we can perform this scene smoothly, we are halfway there to success.”
