Emelia looked at Nina and nodded seriously, "I think you can act well."
Not even Nina herself believed it. She was born with a face which predestined her to be away from tranquility.
Emelia saw her concern and added softly, "Nina, I know there is a gentle and quiet girl who lives in your heart."
The relationship between Emelia and Nina had been built up since high school, and Emelia knew better than anyone how wonderful Nina was.
Nina almost cried out at Emelia's words.
She was indeed simple and conservative at heart, and although she was in the complicated showbiz and always living in the limelight, she longed for a serene life.
She hoped she could live a peaceful life with the man she loved.
But because of her face, everyone thought she was charming and sultry, and some even thought she was debauched from the first moment they saw her.
In time, she herself thought she was that kind of person.
She hugged Emelia and said with red eyes, "If I can get this role, I will definitely do my best."
To live up to Emelia's expectations of her and to show everyone a different side of her.
Maisie chaired the meeting. After a heated debate, it was finally decided that they would use the new script.
At the end of the meeting, a video call was made to Julian, who after all was the big boss behind the project and paid for all the investment.
When the call was answered, the large screen in the conference room showed a picture of a man sitting on a hospital bed in a hospital gown.
Perhaps because of his illness, his usually stern face was now much softened.
Emelia silently lowered her eyes.
He didn’t care for his own body and deserved to be in hospital.
Julian briefly said a few words, and then suddenly named Emelia, "Emelia."
Being named directly by him like this, Emelia had to raise her eyes to look at the man in that screen, and put a polite smile on her face, "Mr. Hughes."
The man's deep, distant eyes fell on her face, "Both versions are brilliant and wowing."
Emelia was stunned for a moment. She could hardly imagine that Julian would praise her without mincing words in front of so many people.
"Thanks." She said and then lowered her eyes.
Once she was nothing in the eyes of Julian.
In three years of marriage, she had never heard nice words from him, in any way, as if the value of her existence was only in bed.
Julian added, "You can try to extend the old version and make up another story, I believe it will be just as good."
After Julian's words fell, an assistant director at the side smiled and joked, Mr. Hughes, is this your intention to make an appointment with our scriptwriter for the next script?"
Emelia looked at Julian in shock, and saw him staring at her and saying calmly, "Of course I want to, if I can."
Everyone looked at Emelia because of Julian's words, and Emelia quickly calmed down.
She responded with a light smile, "Thank you, Mr. Hughes, but I'm limited in my ability, so I'm just concentrating on the task at hand for now, and I'm not thinking too much about the future."
In the next project, Emelia did not want to work with Julian again.
