Chapter 6 Who Are You?

• Director Brown held onto the script and stood up. He wasn’t expecting Caroline’s acting would improve so quickly. At the start, he was hesitant about it but gave in to the pressure of Brilliant Entertainment and invited her for the audition. He’s heart was filled with unwillingness.
• However, Caroline’s performance had exceeded his expectations. Her acting was more than anyone could ask for to succeed in being a leading actress.
• The director looked at Arya with a satisfied expression. He signaled his assistant to continue with the audition as Arya was about to step down from the stage.
• Then someone suddenly shouted from backstage, “Caroline Bennett is going to act a crying scene? What a big joke.”
• Everyone turned to where the voice was from and saw the leading lady of the movie, Gloria. She walked out and pointed at Arya, who was stunned, stood in the middle of the stage, “I’m definite you’re not Caroline. You must be an actress that she hired. I really want to see who you are behind the mask.”
• “Gloria, don’t make things up. Careful of your words or I’ll sue you for defamation!” Kayden instantly came in front of Arya as he had a bad feeling.
• “You’re going to sue me for defamation? We’ll see! Let her take off her mask so everyone can see if she really is Caroline.”
• “Caroline’s sickness is very serious, so if she takes off her mask, people with her in the studio will catch her virus. We definitely don’t want that to happen, we’re not that selfish.” Kayden argued.
• “If you don’t have the courage, then don’t, but don’t give me such a lousy excuse.” Gloria's lips curled in distain. “Do you really think that everyone here is an idiot who doesn’t have any basic medical knowledge?”
• “You…” Kayden said, and then Arya walked towards him. He could only give Arya a signal with his glance not to take off her mask under any circumstances.
• “Director, what shall we do?” The assistant director heard the commotion surrounding, then getting louder and louder. “There are a lot of reporters now, would…”
• Director Brown looked at Arya who was standing on the stage and frowned with a troubled expression.
• “Miss Caroline, did you want to surprise everyone? Have you been practicing your acting more recently?” One reporter asked.
• After that, more reporters surrounded her. In the chaos, Kayden was shoved outside the gathered crowd.
• “Miss Caroline, are you really so sick? Why don’t you take off your mask?”
• “Are you really Caroline Bennett?”
• Arya slowly lowered her head and glanced at the anxious Kayden, who was standing outside the crowd. She wanted Caroline to lose her reputation. After pondering a few seconds, she took a deep breath and took off her mask in front of everyone.
• She bowed to Director Brown. “Director Brown, My apologies, I’m not Caroline.”
• Caroline, who was popular for two years in the entertainment industry, had somehow become Arya, the multiple award winning movie queen. Since Arya retired from the entertainment industry, her popularity declined greatly. That is showbiz. To everyone’s surprise, she is now actually auditioning for others!
• “What happened? Where is Caroline?”
• “Arya, you’ve disappeared for more than two years. Why are you suddenly here?”
• “Why are you auditioning for Caroline? Do you want to make a comeback using this opportunity?”
• “We all know Brilliant Entertainment is promoting Caroline after you retire and is letting her known internationally. Since you’re appearing now, are you trying to replace Caroline?”
• Arya was bombarded with too many questions and felt overwhelmed. She not only didn’t know which one to answer first, but also didn’t know how to answer.
• “You’ve been forgotten by the audience…”
• “No matter how good your acting skill is, it is pointless if you don’t have a backup and no one is promoting you.”
• The film crew in the studio felt duped, including Director Brown. He sighed heavily. If Arya had told him in advance, he would have been excited and invited her to audition. But now, she had deceived everyone.
• Arya was suddenly trapped in the middle of the stage by the reporters, with nowhere to go. At this moment, the sponsor of the movie came over and yelled at Arya, “Who the hell do you think you are? You went and auditioned for the role of Caroline? Do you think you’re capable?”
• Arya endured the harsh words that filled the small studio.
• At this moment, the studio door flew open and, with long strides, Allen Jones walked in.
• “How pitiful…”
• His voice was serious. The cold and arrogant aura he exuded was impressive. As he was walking directly towards the group, the reporters quickly made their way to the side which opened up a path for him… He was the CEO of Dahua Entertainment, an important figure in the entertainment industry!
