My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 433

The director explained calmly, “I told the scriptwriter to make a change. We’ll do it in a different way.”

Nicole was already doing her part according to the new script. Originally, she was supposed to endure hardships and eventually find her sister. After having a word with her sister, she would be forced to retreat as the enemies had powerful arms.

However, due to the fact that the supporting actresses kept making mistakes, the director had no choice but to do it differently.

Just then, the female lead was rushing over from afar. Unfortunately, the bad guys caught her as her sister and the other girls were pushed into a truck before they were sent to another place.

Despair, fury, helplessness and regret were what she had to express in a short period of time. She was doing a solo because her interactive scene with the other actresses was canceled. Other than a brief shot for Olivia, the other actresses only had their limbs shown.

To show how tragic the scene was, the girls, who were trying to flee, would be beaten up by the bad guys. This scene was played by male martial artists who wore female clothes. Therefore, the female walk-ons didn’t even get to take part in it.

“Our part is gone just like this?” Olivia stared at the director in disbelief. This is one of the most important scenes for me! Even one shot less will make me sad!

However, the director had all his attention on Nicole’s acting.

At that moment, the bad guys pressed Nicole against the ground and pointed a pistol at her head while she watched her sister being taken away in despair. The expression on her face clearly projected her thoughts. If she’s gone, I might not be able to find her again!

This part was a turning point for the female lead. Before this, she was a proud spy who had received an elite education. Upon learning that her sister was smuggled to Africa, she believed that she could save her sister alone and even rejected the male lead’s offer to help. Ignoring the male lead’s advice, she found out her sister’s whereabouts and immediately took action on her own.

She was confident that she could save her sister easily, but unexpectedly, not only did she fail to save her sister, but she was also caught by the enemies.

Feeling regretful, this would be the first time she came to the realization that she was weak and ignorant. At that instant, she was gripped by regret, resentment and sorrow.

Focusing on the act, Nicole growled, “Monsters! Let go of my sister! I will never let you off! Never! Sis, sorry. I’m sorry… I couldn’t save you…”

The director held his breath, for he was worried that Nicole might be unable to bring out the emotions of the character. To his surprise, Nicole’s acting was excellent and she struck the right balance. She didn’t bawl too hard, nor was she too lacking in intensity of her acting.

When the scene was over, everyone in the production site gave her a round of applause, except for the supporting actresses, whose voices of discontent were muted.

The director couldn’t help but rush over to give her a hug. “It’s so perfect! Keep up the good work!”

The script was tailor-made for the male leads when the director received it, so they had the most scenes. Moreover, the male leads gave off a powerful vibe, and almost no actress in the country was a match for them.

Therefore, when the director learned that the female lead was a newbie, he didn’t object to it because the character didn’t matter much in the drama. Even if all the female lead’s scenes were deleted, it wouldn’t affect the drama one bit.

However, the newbie’s performance was beyond the director’s expectation. Perfect! It’s simply perfect!

When interacting with the male leads, the female lead didn’t pale in comparison at all. Hence, the director decided to include more scenes for her.
