Eugene didn’t stay over that night. Madeline lay in bed, but sleep eluded her as she had slept ton long during the day.
The light in the room was a warm yellow. She lay in bed, looking at the two rings around her neck. The diamonds on the ring were bright under the light, but she didn’t try them on. After all, a ring had a different meaning from other accessories and wasn’t a gift typically given between siblings.
Madeline fiddled with the rings. “They’re so weird. There are so many good people in the world. Why do they have to choose me?
Although being firmly chosen was a happy thing, she had 12 brothers. It was inevitable that some of them would have this idea.
“Maybe they just… wanted to marry me when we were line? And that grew into an obsession in their adulthood? It would be inappropriate for me to really date my brothers. They really won’t stop until their fantasies are shattered. Alas, Madeline shook her head, wondering when their relationships had started to deteriorate.
Of course. Madeline didn’t understand. Those who lived in darkness desperately wanted to latch onto a beam of light, And she was their light.
She didn’t know when she woke up during the night. But when she did, her phone kept ringing. Madeline answered it, and there was a moment of silence on the other end.
“Maddie, it’s Dad. We’ve already seuled all our debts. You’re probably doing well in the capital. Your brothers miss you very much, and your mom misses you too. If you ever come back to Acocester, why don’t you come over for dinner?” Thomas asked. His mentality had completely changed after experiencing bankruptcy and borrowing money,
Madeline answered, “No. Stop contacting me from different numbers. It’s annoying. She hung up regardless of Thomas‘ mood
After a while, another unknown call came through. Madeline pursed her lips and answered the call impatiently. “Hello”
The person on the other end started, “Ms. Larson, do you have time to discuss a collaboration?”
Madeline frowned in confusion. “May I ask what kind of collaboration it is?”
The answer came. “We’re from the crew of Cheers. Our director has seen you in the crew of Immortalism‘ before and thinks your temperament is very suitable for one of our roles. We’d like to ask if you’d want to try out for the role. We’re holding an audition in the capital soon. Are you interested?
Madeline finally remembered. She didn’t expect that her performance at the time would attract the attention of a director. Her luck was too good. “Cheers” was a huge historical movie adaptation, and Madeline certainly was aware of it
“Yes, I’m in the capital right now. When is it held?” she asked.
After telling Madeline the time, the other party hang up the phone
Madeline then searched the internet for the original book “Cheers” was adapted from. She had nothing else to do, so she started reading the novel overnight. She finally finished reading it after three days. It just so happened to be the day of the audition too.
Madeline had printed out her resume, which looked simple. There was only the role of the second female lead, Rachel Chambers, from “Fake Confessions and nothing else.
After she arrived, she waited outside the audition room. There were still many people there. On the door were the words “Audition for ‘Cheers.” She took a picture and posted it on Instagram as a way to secretly cheer herself up.
The story was captioned: [I’m so nervous!]
After all, it was the first time in this life that she was fighting for a role. She valued the opportunity and had made sufficient preparations for it
On the other side, Yohannes received a notification on his phone the moment Madeline posted the story. He took out his phone and opened it. “Cheers?
Yohannes remembered all the important roles in this movie had been decided, with only a few minor ones remaining. However, even those were good. His eyes narrowed. Those likeable characters are probably reserved by people with connections. If they get those roles, all of Maddie’s preparations and efforts would be wasted.
Yohannes exhaled solemnly. “I can’t let her down” Since he was in the entertainment industry, he should protect her and use all his resources to make her happy. Besides, he hadn’t seen her in a while, and there hadn’t been any reason to contact her.
Yoharmes fourriedly called as manager. “Are you busy?”
Jasper’s side was full of the sound of the seabreeze. “Hay Huli? Dude, I’m on vacation! Did you forget?”

Chapter 193
Yohannes couldn’t care less what Jasper said, as he only asked that out of politeness. “Maddie is auditioning for ‘Cheers! Call them and take care of it. Money isn’t a problem.”
Jasper said, “Wait. My wife is waiting for me to take her photos. I’m already on vacation!”
“Then, have someone else do it. You must help her get the role she wants,” Yohannes said impatiently with a thoughtful look in his eyes. “I don’t think I have Mr. Seinfeld’s phone number. Forget it. I’ll ask Diana. Her last movie was Immortalism with him.”
Jasper hurriedly said, “I’ll take care of it for you. Don’t worry. Diana’s relationship with you…” He sighed. Usually, Yohannes didn’t like interacting with big shots like Diana at all. Even his visit to her set before was done unwillingly. But, now he was actually initiating contact with Diana for
Madeline’s sake.
Hearing Jasper’s agreement, Yohannes nodded and said, “Then, continue your vacation. I won’t bother you anymore.”
Jasper looked at the hung–up call, speechless. He thought, ‘Damn it. He’s so rude. Other people’s managers are always so arbitrary and unyielding But here I am, constantly being treated like a tool by him. I’m such a well–known manager in this industry, yet my life is only getting worse.”
Madeline had already received the topic for her audition and performed it. The auditions were done in groups of three, and Madeline was undoubtedly the best performer in her group.
Martin watched from under the stage and scored her with satisfaction. However, he was confused as to why Madeline, who had played a second female lead, would participate in the audition for the fifth female lead.
Back then, Madeline’s scene wasn’t shot by him, but by the assistant director. During the later editing phase, he was very satisfied with her performance. Her temperament and image were very consistent with this role.
To be honest, there weren’t many young actors in the entertainment industry with such outstanding looks and cool temperament, especially when they were
still young,
“Very good.” Martin smiled at Madeline. Thank you for your hard work. You can go back and wait for the results.”
Madeline bowed. “Thank you, Mr. Seinfeld. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and felt that she had performed well.
The man beside Martin said, “Is this the person you mentioned who’s suitable to be Rhea Jules? I think she looks suitable, but Rhea’s a cruel and cold young lady, and she has a lot of scenes. I wonder if she’ll have stage fright when acting opposite veteran actors.”
Martin smiled. “Nothing is set yet, so why are you so anxious about what happens after! Most importantly, although Madeline was suitable for this role, his friend’s daughter was also interested. He wanted to let her have a try and do his friend a favor if her acting was acceptable.
The man beside Martin smiled, thinking that Madeline’s performance and conditions were a sure pass.
At this time, Martin’s phone rang. It was Jasper,
vas stunned
He was
as he wondered, Is Jasper trying to squees in His conditions are okay for modern movies, but his acting skills are still lacking for historical movies Martin didn’t know whether to answer it or not,
