The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1990

"No way!" Wendy closed the script disdainfully. "Cathy is only a side character, and a homewrecker at that. She's not likable at all! How could I play such a role? I'll be criticized if this airs!"

The assistant pointed to a nearby room and said, "Miss Wendy, I know that the character isn't the most likable, but she has a significant amount of screen time! Don't you know that villainy is a test of acting skills? If you perform this character well, you might even win an award! Look, there's a lot of other actresses lined up in that room waiting for the director. They're competing fiercely for a role. Others would gladly step in if you decided not to pursue this role."

Wendy was still somewhat hesitant as she did not want to play the villain.

At that moment, Melody stepped out of the room. She rushed up to the assistant and grabbed her arm. "I'll play the character Cathy if she doesn't want to. She has so much screen time, and I believe in the potential of Cathy's character. This could very well be my breakout role, so I want to play Cathy!"

"Melody? What are you doing here?" Wendy's expression immediately changed when she saw Melody.

Melody turned her head and acted as if she had just seen her. "Wendy, you should just leave if you're not interested in the role! I fought tooth and nail for this audition, and I don't mind playing the villain. I believe one can shine in any role as long as one is a good actress!"

After that, she turned to the assistant and said eagerly, "Please give me a chance. I'll cherish it and give my best performance."

The assistant looked somewhat resigned. "Well... It's not my call. The director mentioned that only Wendy's image fits the role... But if she's not interested, I can discuss it the director and see if you can have a shot."

Suddenly, Wendy changed her tune and grabbed the assistant's arm. "Who said I don't want to play Cathy? I want to play this role. Let's do the audition right now!"
