The agent was well-connected. “That’s Casey Robson. He came to audition for our show yesterday and completely impressed everyone. The director liked him, and he’d have passed today’s callback easily.
“But some spoiled kid with influence got jealous. They weren’t even going for the same role- pure envy. He couldn’t stand seeing Casey shine and had someone dump him in the middle of nowhere. Just rotten luck.”
Honestly, that wasn’t even the worst part.
There were countless ways to mess with someone in showbiz.
It was a battlefield where fame and money made people ruthless. If you weren’t careful, you’d get pushed aside.
Unless you became famous, no one would dare touch you, and people around you would back you up.
The agent couldn’t hide his surprise. “Someone actually brought him back.”
He glanced at Ayla and Draven, eyes lighting up. “Who are those two? They’re ridiculously good-looking.”
Anyone with half a brain could tell they weren’t ordinary.
Derek thought for a moment, then quickly made a decision. He leaned over and whispered something into the agent’s ear.
The agent listened and exclaimed, “That kid’s luck is insane.”
Derek shook his head. “Luck alone doesn’t cut it If the director noticed him, it means he’s got real talent. He just needs a shot.”
After years in the industry, Derek knew a harsh uth-talent mattered, but luck mattered
more.
If his luck was good, he’d hit it big.
He considered himself the lucky one.
Casey had auditioned for the role of the third nule lead’s bodyguard.

Chapter 326 His Role
He ran into the director’s office, and to his relief the director was still there.
Right then, that cliché suddenly clicked-never give up until the very end.
If it weren’t for Ayla, he probably wouldn’t have come.
He didn’t think the director would wait for him.
But maybe that didn’t matter.
If he didn’t show up, he’d never know.
Maybe the director hadn’t been waiting for him, but he was still there in the office.
That was what mattered.
Walking into the office, Casey nervously called out to the director and bowed deeply, apologizing for being late.
But the director was on a call, so he stayed quiet.

When the call ended, Casey tried to explain why he’d been late, but the director waved him off.
“Your role has been set-the male lead’s bodyguard.” The lead in the historical drama was Derek, who’d invested some money and wanted to give a few newcomers a chance.
Plus, Casey’s audition had been genuinely impressive, so the director was happy to give him the role.
They’d dial back his styling a bit so he wouldn’t outshine Derek.
Casey’s eyes went wide. “Derek … the male lead’s bodyguard?”
“Yes. Plenty of screen time, lots of fight scenes. Once you’re on set, train hard.”
Casey felt like someone had punched him into daze.
He froze, completely stunned.
“Have your agent call the assistant director. Theyll sort your schedule.” The director tapped some contact info on the desk. “Come by tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. to sign the contract. Don’t mess up again.”
By the time the director finished, Casey was already crying.
He couldn’t stop saying, “Thank you! Thank you so much!”

He wiped his tears with his arm while saving the assistant director’s number on his phone.
“I’ll work so hard! I won’t let you down!”
The director had seen actors cry even harder when they landed roles. All of them were young, pure, and passionate.
That kind of personality fit acting perfectly.
But Casey still had to make the most of it.
He needed to act well and handle the social side.
The director had weathered plenty of storms and knew how to stay calm through highs and lows. Still, he had patience for the young ones and encouraged Casey. “Good luck.”
“I will! I swear I will!” Casey repeated, like a child desperate for a parent’s approval, before finally leaving reluctantly.
He wanted to call his mother immediately and tell her about his first real role.
But he held back, afraid he’d start crying again.
So he sent texts instead.
“Mom, I might finally make something of mysel!
“Just wait-I’ll make you proud once I start earning!
“Oh, and can you send two of our hometown specialties? Get the good ones-I’ll pay you
back.”
Casey hadn’t signed with an agency yet. He added the assistant director himself, joined the cast group chat, and scrolled through the members.
Derek-the top star, a top-tier actress as the female lead….
All of them were big names.
Casey felt like he was dreaming.
Ayla and Draven waited in the car for Casey.
Draven had already reviewed Casey’s backgroun

Casey hadn’t lied. He was just a college student about to graduate, with a clean record.
If his history had been messy, Draven wouldn’t have let Ayla get involved.
He passed his phone to Ayla.
