Chapter 270 The Audition Trip

The audition was scheduled for the afternoon. Scarlett could fly back that same night.

She and Maggie headed to airport security first.

But when they arrived, they noticed several entertainment reporters waiting nearby. It looked like they were staking out the airport for someone.

The reporters also noticed Scarlett.

This time, unlike the last time at the airport, none of them rushed over to surround her.

Instead, they hesitated. No one even dared to speak. Finally, one reporter couldn’t hold it in anymore. He stood a short distance away and called out to her.

“Scarlett… Ms. Scarlett, where are you heading?”

Even the way he addressed her had changed. Before, they used to call her simply by name.

The reporter was already prepared for her to ignore him.

Everyone in their circle knew Scarlett didn’t like reporters waiting to ambush her.

What happened at the airport last time had become famous among entertainment reporters.

They had been frozen in place for an entire hour.

The story had spread through the whole industry.

So now, even when they saw Scarlett, no one dared to do anything reckless.

They weren’t even here for her. But seeing her made them curious. They wanted to ask about Brookriver High. They wanted to ask if she was aiming for the top SAT score next year. They also wanted to ask whether the cheating scandal back then had been a misunderstanding.

But none of them dared to ask.

Scarlett glanced at the reporter and said calmly, “I’m going to Khiburn for an audition.”

The reporter lit up when he realized she actually answered him.

“An audition? Ms. Scarlett is going for an audition? Then good luck! I hope you get the role. Would it be okay if I take a photo?”

Scarlett looked at him but didn’t say anything.

As long as they didn’t rush up to her and shove cameras and microphones in her face, she was usually easygoing.

The reporter understood immediately.

Click. Click. Click. He took several photos of Scarlett.

Even if they didn’t catch Zayden today, getting pictures of Scarlett was still good. Now they even knew she was heading to Khiburn for an audition.

Scarlett and Maggie passed through security.

Maggie muttered quietly, “I wonder who those reporters are waiting for.”

After what happened last time, they probably wouldn’t show up just to follow Scarlett anymore.

Scarlett said, “They’re probably waiting for Zayden.”

Although Zayden had been working in Brookriver recently, it wasn’t his hometown.

His family lived near Khiburn.

Leona had filed a lawsuit against him.

But Zayden’s company had helped him.

They hired a very strong lawyer.

On top of that, doctors had evaluated Zayden and confirmed that he had mental health problems.

That part wasn’t fake. Zayden’s mental state really wasn’t stable.

Because of that, criminal charges would be difficult. He had only been detained for a few days before being released on bail. At most, he would have to pay civil damages.

Of course, his career in the entertainment industry was finished.

He had probably gone back to his hometown to recover.

Scarlett hadn’t even landed in Khiburn yet when the reporters posted the news online.

They uploaded several photos too.

In the pictures, Scarlett wore simple casual clothes. Her hair was tied in a high ponytail. Her features looked bright and lively. Her skin was pale and flawless.

“Scarlett Heads to Khiburn for an Audition.”

Comments quickly flooded the post. [Khiburn? Is she filming a TV series or a movie? I remember she already got back the third female role in Mr. Lloyd’s film. Has she not joined the filming yet? Why is she auditioning for another role now? Which director is it?]

[Khiburn? Oh, I know. It must be Calvert Patton’s audition. There’s been a lot of talk online recently. Calvert is making a big historical drama series. The filming and auditions are both happening in Khiburn.]

[Calvert? That director?]

[Yeah, that Calvert. His historical dramas are legendary. Every one of them becomes a classic. But his auditions usually go to actors from film schools, experienced performers, or veteran actors. He rarely chooses complete newcomers. Scarlett hasn’t acted much before, right? Why would he invite her to audition?]

[Am I the only one staring at Scarlett’s beauty? Wow, she looks amazing.]

[The scar on her face is completely gone! That scar-removal cream works way too well.]

By the time Scarlett and Maggie arrived in Khiburn, it was already noon.

They found a random spot to grab lunch. After that, they headed straight to the audition location.

The set was enormous. There were people everywhere, and the place was noisy.

All the auditions were happening here.

They hadn’t started yet. The area was filled with cameramen, crew members, and many actors who had come to audition.

There were many roles open that day.

Just the casting alone might take Calvert half a month to finish.

As soon as Scarlett arrived, she ran into two familiar faces.

One of them was Yvonne.

Scarlett hadn’t expected to see her here.

Yvonne was an award-winning actress.

They had met before in the third week of the show Faces of the Crowd.

Back then, Scarlett noticed that Yvonne’s mother was sick and urged her to take her to the hospital for a checkup.

At the time, Yvonne had been poisoned. Her skin was covered in acne, and all her hair had fallen out. She had worn a hat and a mask the entire time.
