Chapter 98
This movie was dominated from a male perspective, and the female part was not very heavy. Because of her age, the heroine had already chosen a middle-aged actress who was also the best actress.
Therefore, there was only a female supporting role left for her.
Although she was just a supporting actress, it was David's work after all. For a popular actress like her, it was enough to show off.
And this role was very suitable for her in both age and temperament.
Therefore, Barbara was confident to get it.
Isobel knew what she was thinking, so she didn't say anything. When she turned around and was about to leave, a man's voice came from behind.
“Isobel?”
She turned around and saw Lewis walking inside.
“Lewis.”
Barbara's face lit up with joy. She walked up to him, held his arm and said in a soft voice, "you're here!"
Lewis looked at her and nodded. "Yes, I just finished talking with my friend. What were you talking about just now?"
It was not that he didn't notice that there was something wrong, but he knew that Isobel and Barbara didn't get along well.
So she just asked casually.
However, before Barbara could say anything, Elsie, who was standing next to her, shouted angrily, "Mr. Gill, you must stand up for Barbara. Isobel has gone too far! It doesn't matter if she wants to take the role of Barbara. As soon as she sees us, she send away Mr. Mills immediately, as if she is afraid that she will say one more word to Isobel and Barbara. I don't know what she means."
Barbara forced a smile and said, "Elsie, please don't say that. I... I don't think she did it on purpose."
Not on purpose?
It meant that she didn't want her to talk to David, so she sent him away on purpose!
Isobel cast a playful glance at Lewis and saw his face darken.
Looking at Isobel, he frowned and said in a deep voice, "Isobel, Barbara has been studying the role of Kendra for a long time. She likes it very much. Don't compete with her."
Isobel sneered.
"Lewis, why are you so confident that I will listen to you?"
Lewis was stunned.
In fact, it was indeed unnecessary for Isobel to listen to him.
But after all, they had been together for six years. During that six years, she had always been obedient to him. As long as he said it, she almost had no objection.
Therefore, he subconsciously got used to it and thought that he would listen to him this time.
There was a slight embarrassment in the air.
A girl who came in with Barbara snorted with disdain, "what the hell do you think you are? Barbara doesn't want to argue with you, or you won't be able to attract the attention of Mr. Mills just because of what you did five years ago!"
Barbara's face changed slightly and said in a low voice, "don't mention it."
The girl was not convinced and said, "why can't you mention it? It's true. As long as it's what you want, she can grab it by all means?
Just like five years ago, when she was unable to get into the Royal Academy of Arts, she stole your work. For things like this, she didn't care about the feelings of her sister for benefits, and only you protected her.
In my opinion, we should let everyone know what she has done and see her true face, so that we won't be deceived by her appearance! "
"Lydia! Stop!"
The crowd began to whisper.
"What happened five years ago? Does it have anything to do with the Royal Academy of Arts?"
"You don't know yet. They are two sisters. It is said that five years ago, as a sister, she was jealous of her sister's talent, so she stole her work and pretended to submit it to the superior. The result was found out! She didn't get into the exam, not to mention her sister."
"Really? Is that true?"
"The news about WL Senior High School and Royal Academy of Arts has been spread all over the world. It can't be false!"
"What a vicious woman! The Royal Academy of Arts has only been born in three years. What a rare opportunity!"
"You are right."
"If she can't pass the examination, it can only be said that her skills are not as good as that of a person. Why did she steal other people's works? This person's character is too mean!"
"Exactly."
Lydia raised her eyebrows complacently when she heard people's discussion.
Seeing this, Barbara looked flustered. She hurriedly explained, "everyone, please stop talking. It's not what you think. Sister... Sister was also possessed. She didn't mean to do that!"
"Barbara, you are so kind. How could you hide such a kind person from me for her?"
"That's right. She has bullied you to such an extent. Even if you give in, you can't get her gratitude. Don't be silly!"
"No, my sister is not that kind of person."
"Barbara, I don't mean to blame you. If I were you, I would have made an eye for an eye and let everyone know about it. She would never be able to raise her head!"
All of a sudden, there was a burst of noise around.
Everyone was criticizing Isobel. They looked at her, but the amazement and appreciation in their eyes were gone.
They were full of contempt and disgust!
Isobel was expressionless. There was no change in her deep and quiet eyes because of the words of others, as if nothing had happened.
Barbara sneered at her.
Pretending! Just keep pretending!
Let me see how much you can pretend?
She paused and was about to say something.
However, before she could say anything, she heard Lewis's angry voice.
