Stella paused and swept her gaze across her. "We'll soon find out which one of us has better skills. As for men, I'm sure you haven't slept with any men I've been with."Then, she looked at her belly. "When are you due?"Bella felt very embarrassed, but Stella already went around her to go into the audition room. The script that Stuart's assistant gave her was only a page long, and it was set in the school's dancing studio.Georgia just won first place in the youth dance competition of Sresport. Her classmates started talking about it. All of them thought that the competition was rigged, and they were all on Lexi's side. Georgia interrupted them and argued with Lexi after hearing their conversation from outside. Then, they started competing in front of everyone. Georgia would then make a mistake and made fun of.Stella quickly memorized her lines and said to Stuart. "Can I start now?"Stuart nodded. Then, he paused and said, "Bella, come and join her. You'll only have a few lines.
"Let's go then. Lexi, show her how Nirvana should be performed!"Then, Lexi stood beside Georgia reluctantly. Nirvana, as its name suggested, was a dance to mimic the movement of a Phoenix. The music started, and both of them began dancing.Georgia bent down slightly and hugged herself with both arms. She looked like a nestling that just broke its shell while exploring the unknown world timidly. Then, as the melody changed, she stretched her arms out and started moving like an eagle soaring through the sky.Suddenly, a high-pitched tone played. She then fell as if her wings broke. Then, she bathed in the fire before rising from the ashes and being reborn..."Bang—"Georgia could not maintain her balance while she wanted to straighten her back and fell to the ground.Everybody was shocked and thought that Stella had made a mistake.She sat up with a pale face and looked at Lexi, who was dancing with her bloodshot eyes beside her. Georgia was too desperate to win that she made a b
Keegan watched the live broadcast on a screen in a room next door. He pursed his lips without saying anything.That was his first-time seeing Stella dance like that.Actually, she would sometimes dance in his house. Her best habit was making time daily to stretch her legs and practice basic dancing moves. She would dance on a whim, but the choreographies were mostly nothing serious. For example, she would mimic alien, frog prince, or panda man dancing...Stella would ask Keegan to stand beside her when she did that. Then, she would play the animated cartoon choreography on the television while following the steps and making those weird moves on the other side of the screen.Keegan paid little attention to viral videos, so he felt very strange when he first saw Stella doing that. However, she could dance almost exactly the same as the cartoons on television. He still had the video of her wearing a full yellow outfit while doing the alien dance on his phone.Keegan attended a busine
The fact that Stella was late today left a bad impression. Though, she tried her best to redeem it with her acting skills. "Don't worry, Mr. Winfield. This will be the first and last time I'll be late," she said.Stuart felt relieved when he heard that. "Take a look at the contract and sign your name if there is no problem.""Is it okay if I video call my agent and ask him to review the contract?"Before Mr. Winfield could open his mouth, his assistant said, "These types of contracts are almost exactly the same. There's nothing to review. Hurry up and sign it. Don't delay our ti—"Stuart raised his hand, motioning for the other party to stop talking. Then he said to Stella, "Go ahead. It's a good thing to be cautious."When Yasmine heard that Stella would call Kaiden, her face changed slightly.Stella thanked Stuart. Accompanied by several crew members, she went downstairs to a place with a signal and made a phone call with Kaiden. She also sent a copy of the contract to him.Ka
"Why don't you try it if you don't believe me?" Stella said. She suddenly changed the main subject with, "What are you afraid of, Bella? Why did you use such a low-level method to make me miss my audition for the female lead?"Bella froze for a moment but quickly came back to her senses. "Huh? What do you mean? What are you talking about?"Bella was not a fool. She would never admit something she did not directly commit. 'Who knows if this crazy bitch is recording or something. I'm not about to let her get to me.'"Everyone was given the same chance. You're the one who did not arrive at the scene on time. You must accept the price of being late instead of blaming others."The corners of Stella's mouth twitched when she heard that. 'I see someone has become smart.'Bella looked at her half-smile and thought of the last time she kicked her into the sea. 'This crazy bitch is wild. Today's incident was not executed well. There's a possibility that I'll get exposed if I continue arguin
As soon as Stella arrived at the lobby, Marshall's voice came behind her. She turned around, surprised, "Mr. Moore— I mean Marshall, why are you here?"Marshall approached her and said softly, "I'm here to discuss a case." He glanced at her dancing outfit and said, "Why are you—""I just finished an audition."Marshall nodded.Stella just passed the tryout and was excited, "Why don't you ask me if I got the role?""Is there even a need to ask?" Marshall smiled. He could already tell by her expression. "Come on, ask me," Stella said. She had to show off in one way or another. Marshall laughed and asked seriously, "Did you pass the audition, Ms. Jewell?"Stella's eyes sparkled, "Yeah! The director's eyes shined bright when he saw me!"Marshall could not hide his smile while looking at her, "Is that so? Congratulations, then." Stella rolled her eyes.As he was talking, a middle-aged bald man suddenly approached Marshall and said, "Think about it, Mr. Moore. I can pay you more if y
Stella glanced back at the door and saw that Keegan had not come down yet. Marshall noticed her looking and asked, "Are you waiting for your friends?" Stella was silent for a few seconds before saying, "No."Clearly, she was not waiting for Keegan, the idiot who did not know how to speak."It's okay. I don't want to trouble you. I'll just call a cab."Marshall paused, "It's no trouble, Stella. Treat it as friends helping each other. Plus, it's late. It's not safe for you to take the cab alone. Come on, let me give you a ride." The last sentence sounded like a request.Stella was afraid when people talked to her like that because she would not know how to reject them. So, she got into Marshall's car in a daze."You live in Clouditude International?" Marshall asked as he turned the steering wheel. Stella nodded, "Yeah. It was a company arrangement. I'm staying there with my friend."Marshall lightly tapped his fingers on the steering wheel a few times before saying, "Clouditude has
Marshall chuckled, "Actually, Keegan is liked by many elders. He is great at his work and very responsible. He meets the standards of a son-in-law, and many girls fancy him. I'm guessing the elders of the Kane family are urging him to find another bride. After all, he is the only son in the family. They would want him to spread his seed."Stella was startled when she heard that, her heart trembling slightly. She pursed her lips tightly and said nothing while lightly tapping the window beside her.Not long after, they arrived at Clouditude International. When Stella got out of the car, Marshall called out to her. He took a tiny pink bunny-shaped pendant from the car's storage box and handed it to Stella. "My colleagues custom ordered a phone strap, but pink is not my color. I'm thinking you girls might like it..?"The details on the bunny looked amazing. Stella liked it but said, "My phone doesn't have a case, so this thing is pretty much useless to me. Maybe you should give it to wh
