My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 820

This was Cooper’s request. The director didn’t know who he was so he turned to look at Michael.

Cooper came with Michael and Michael seems to treat him with great respect…

Michael was helpless. It seems that Cooper is very opposed to letting Carmen act in movies. He definitely doesn’t want her to finish acting the second scene so smoothly. Moreover, Carmen needs to experience the hard work that goes into acting in order to make a better choice.

Michael had no choice but to agree. “Okay, Mr. Mitchell. Whatever you say.”

The director immediately started to find faults at the beginning of the second scene.

“Cut! The flower dropped! Let’s do this again!”

“Cut! Your gaze did not express the character’s feelings! Start over!”

“Where are your emotions? You have to show your emotions! Again!”

There was a series of cuts the whole morning and the director found fault with almost everything. Everyone on set was tired and listless, and it was not until the crew put out lunch at noon that everyone dispersed and had a rest.

Carmen was sad and emotional. She sat on Cooper’s laps and buried her head in his chest, not saying a word.

 

Holding her in his arms, Cooper coaxed her. “That’s how acting works. There will always be a lot of retakes. If the shot doesn’t look good, you have to start over again and again. It’s not fun at all. After you finish shooting in the afternoon, let’s go home and you can inherit my farm. It’s full of fluffy sheep and you can have as many of them as you want. Or, you can learn how to build robots from Uncle Linus!”

Carmen was too sad to speak. She pursed her lips and tears welled up in her eyes, but she held back her tears firmly. Cooper had scared her with words like ‘that’s how acting works’ and tried to lure her with words like ‘inherit my farm’ to persuade Carmen to leave. However, Carmen wouldn’t leave. At noon, she even stubbornly ate a big bowl of lunch and braced herself to prepare for the afternoon shoot.

 

Michael and Sophia stood at the side and both of them felt speechless. Sophia couldn’t help but roll her eyes. Cooper really doesn’t want Carmen to act in movies!

Sophia thought that whether or not Carmen inherited the family business was not important because all she wanted was for her to be happy. If she really likes acting, as her mother, I’ll naturally support her decision.

After Carmen finished eating, she drank some water and looked up at her father.

Michael looked like Mulan today, and he was even going to sing a verse from the movie itself. In order to accompany Carmen, he really did everything he could and was willing to be in the background for her.

With his female character’s makeup and clothing, Michael looked really beautiful. If he didn’t speak, Sophia wouldn’t be able to tell that he was a man.

“Daddy…” Carmen looked at him innocently. Seeing this, Michael squatted down and his face full of makeup was filled with tenderness as he said, “Darling, what’s the matter?”

Carmen buried her face in Michael’s arms. Looking shy, she stuttered for a long time before she finally came up with a full sentence. “I want to hear you sing opera…”

This was also the wish of everyone on set!

When Michael came out in a dress a moment ago and everyone heard the sound of his heightened voice and saw the way he swayed his body, they didn’t want to shoot the scene anymore. All they wanted to do was watch him sing opera.

In order to strive for perfection and for the scene to look realistic, Michael’s makeup was impeccable, a stage was set up, and they even hired a troupe to act with him. Everything was in place and all they needed was an opera singer.

There was also a glint of hope in Sophia’s eyes.

She had watched all of Michael’s movies and two of them had scenes of him singing opera, which was rumored that he sang them himself. He had also sung a little just now, but they were intermittent and not complete.

His fans always said that he was born with a great voice. They admired him because not only did he know how to act, but he was also good at singing opera.

Sohpia looked at Michael in anticipation.
