"Actually, I want to tell you that the little boy next to Joey is suitable to be the young hero. I hope you can persuade him to play this role.” The director swallows, after talking to Aileen.
The director has never done anything like this before. He doesn't expect that all this is an exception for a child.
At first, Aileen is wondering why the director pulls her over here. It turns out that he wants to persuade Ben, but it’s not surprising. After all, Ben is silver-tongued and handsome. However, it is not that easy to persuade him to act.
"I think it depends on his interest. He doesn't seem to be interested in this, so I can't force him." Aileen knows Ben well, so she can only tell the director truthfully.
The director nods and then says, "I know this, that’s why I come to you for help."
"You want me to do you a favor?" Aileen's eyes widen in surprise.
"Yes. If you can help me, I will definitely bring you some popularity. I will introduce you to great films in the future." The director mentions a very attractive condition.
Aileen doesn't expect that she will get such an opportunity because of her nephew. Actually, her chance to get the heroine this time is entirely thanks to Richard.
Now, she has to work harder.
"Then let me think about it." In fact, Aileen prefers to help him, but she has to negotiate with Ben, which will not be so easy.
Before, every time she negotiates with Ben, she fails.
After they finish speaking, they walk out quietly.
When the director passes by Joey, he makes a cheering gesture to her.
Joey is very excited. She really doesn't expect that she can accomplish such a difficult task, and she must continue to work hard in the future.
"It's off work now. Where do you want to go? I will take you there." Aileen is really in a good mood today. Firstly, her acting is very smooth, and secondly Joey has acted with her.
What disappoints her most is that she doesn't meet Richard who she misses all day long.
"I want to go to the amusement park." Joey says excitedly.
When talking about the amusement park, the children are stunned. Joey remembers something terrible. Then she shows a panicked expression, covers her mouth and says, "oh dear."
Not only is the expression on Joey's face exaggerated, but Andre and Ben, who have always been calm, become uneasy.
"What's wrong? What happens?"
Aileen feels it was too strange. Why all three children become so anxious? She must figure it out.
Joey remembers that she begs Carmen to take her to the amusement park yesterday, but today she has forgotten their agreement. So now she feels so guilty that she even wants to cry.
