My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 74

Chapter 74 Humiliate Yourself

Natalia looked like she suddenly understood something.

"So you know the role too!"

OMG! She had been fighting for the role for a whole month, but failed, how would she not know it?

However, Natalia seemed to have her mind set on playing dumb and Jessica could do nothing about it.

Taking a deep breath, Jessica said in gruff tone, "This role requires great acting skills. The newbie under you are not qualified for it, and you know better than me. Why do you still want to humiliate yourself?"

Natalia smiled.

"I won't know whether I'm bringing disgrace on myself until I try, will I?"

She paused and took a glance at Jessica. The twinkle in her eyes was dripping with sarcasm.

"I did hear that somebody had been fighting for the role to no avail, yet still not giving up. It sounds more like bringing disgrace upon themselves. Don't you think so?"

"You!"

Unable to remain calm, Jessica could not help but feel angry.

She could put up with Natalia stealing the supporting female role Kallie Franklin in 'The Youth'. Was she here to steal yet another role in 'Chase The Wind'.

Did Natalia just have to take every role she had her eye on?

Jessica had the feeling that Natalia was deliberately doing this against her. Staring at Natalia's smiling face, Jessica swallowed her anger after a moment.

She squeezed a smiling face and croaked, "Since you won't listen to my advice, let's just compete for it! We'll see who would get the role."

She failed last time because of Marie's lack of commitment.

This time, she would handle it herself. Was she going to be outshone again?

That would be ridiculous!

Hamlin may prefer to use newbies in his movie, but he would have to take the box office into consideration!

After all, she had become quite a celebrity with a huge fan base. Even if she did nothing, a lot of people had known her already. Thus, she was in urgent need of a work with good box office; otherwise, she would never put herself in such a humble position for a role!

As the film was shot from the male perspective, the proportion of female roles did not account much as a whole. Because of the age, a middle-aged film star had been cast as the female lead.

Therefore, the only chance left for her was the role of Rhea, the sister of the male lead, a supporting female role.

It was just a supporting female role. However, it was ultimately Hamlin's production, which was good enough for a popular celebrity like her to bask in the glory.

And it was a role that matched her age and temperament.

Therefore, Jessica was confident that she would get it.

Natalia remained quiet, even though she knew what was on Jessica's mind. As she turned around to excuse herself, there came a voice of a man behind her.

"Natalia?"

She turned her head and saw Shawn coming in.

"Shawn."

Jessica showed a joyous face and advanced to cling to his arm. She said in a tender voice, "You are here!"

Shawn glanced at her before nodding, "Yes, I just finished chatting with my friends. What were you talking about?"

Of course he could smell the gunpowder in the air. And he was fully aware of the discord between Jessica and Natalia, so he just asked casually.

Unexpectedly, before Jessica said a word, Tammy commented angrily, "Mr. Miller, you should back Jessica up. Natalia crossed the line! She robbed Jessica's role. Moreover, she sent Mr. Hall away when she saw us coming, for fear that Jessica would have more talks with Mr. Hall. God knows what was on her mind?"
