A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 3266

While Osmond was deep in his thoughts concerning Mia, the latter was turning red with embarrassment.

That slap Osmond mentioned was her most humiliating memory. Mia just couldn't take the insult.

“I'm not apologizing! Isn't it just walking barefoot? What's the big deal!” She pulled off the straps on her heels, kicked them off her causing a loud sound. She felt utterly humiliated as she was certain everyone saw her as a joke now. Despite the glamorous facade as a celebrity, she had no dignity behind closed doors.

Her attitude made everyone else in the room doubt her sincerity to get the role. But this small episode was quickly covered up with a few

words from Osmond.

“All right, let's get our focus back. We'll start off the audition by running five laps around this gymnasium.” The director gave a few instructions through his loud hailer. Out of over forty people present, most of them lost motivation upon hearing the word run.

“Why do we need to run?” The complaints started spreading like wildfire.

Megan found this amusing. She replied, “Isn't it obvious from the title, Let's Run?” Her voice attracted the attention of the director. It was then he recognized Megan as the actress that got famous by playing the role of the antagonist in Transcendent.

He nodded approvingly and said, “Seems like there are people aware of what they're here for. Whether you know it or not, stop complaining

and get in line! We're starting soon.”

His curt attitude was not well received by a lot of them. Many of those who were laughing at Mia moments ago was now hating on the director. The shift in their attitude made Megan hopeful that she might get the role.

As per his instructions, everyone stood in a single file. Upon hearing the whistle, Megan dashed out with all her might. During her hiatus, she ran a lot. Although most of the actresses here had decent stamina from the long hours of filming, she was certain that most of them did not know the efficient way of running.

Very soon, she broke free from the pack. With her breath still stable, she noticed someone zoom past her. It was Mia. Although the latter started off last, she managed to reverse her situation. In response, Megan picked up her pace in an attempt to overtake her but was denied

the opportunity as Mia too, increased her speed.

She decided not to give chase. Meanwhile, the first place runner turned back to gloat at her, making the latter confused. What's her problem? Then, Megan's expression hardened. She soon realized the intentions behind that unexpected behavior.

That shrewd woman! Is this her way of telling me I can't overtake her? If it was the past Mia, she would have openly gloated at her victory.

Still, Megan was not one to back down from a fight. She sucked in a breath of fresh air and sprinted towards her. By her side, she taunted, “Mia, I'm really impressed with how strong-willed you are. How are you still so full of yourself after getting that slap?”

Speaking and running simultaneously took a lot of her stamina. Although her initial plan was not to get into any fights, Mia's arrogance was too much for her to take especially after the fight she had with Jake this morning.
