Meanwhile, Denise and Sharon had just arrived at the set.
Upon getting out of the car, they saw a bunch of kids about the same age as Denise leaving the building.
Every one of them looked incredibly cute and pretty.
“Ms. Sharon, are they here to audition for the role as well?” Denise asked.
Sharon adjusted her sunglasses like a celebrity and glanced at them. “Yeah, that's right. What's the matter? Are you nervous?”
Denise didn't seem to mind, though. “I'm all right, I guess,” she said with a smile.
As expected of a child from a wealthy
family! She's so calm and composed!
With that in mind, Sharon smiled as she said, “That's good to hear. You have nothing to be nervous about, Denise. In fact, this role was tailored for you. The director had decided to let you have it after seeing your

picture.
“If that's the case, why would he have all these other people come audition for it?” Denise asked.
“Um... Well, there are certain procedures that he needs to follow. Besides, he also needs to make sure you can adapt to your role. Most importantly, there's a possibility that your picture was edited,” Sharon replied.
Denise nodded even though she didn't really understand what she said.
There were quite a lot of people inside the building. Despite being busy carrying the props and equipment around, they all greeted Sharon upon seeing her. “Hello, Ms. Saunders!”
Sharon simply nodded at them in response as she led Denise into a room in the back.
They saw the director sitting in that spacious room with his legs crossed as he went through a stack of photographs. “What the heck is this? None of these are suitable! Get me another batch! I need to find one that suits this role perfectly!”
“We've already gone through a few batches, sir. I've looked everywhere, and this is the last batch we have. You need to make a decision now, or we won't be able to start shooting on schedule. The sponsors won't be happy—”
“That's your problem! If you want me to direct your film, then you'll do things my way. I'd rather give up on this film if I couldn't find a suitable candidate!”
Realizing that the director had gotten angry, the assistant director quickly calmed him down by saying, “Yes, sir! I'll start looking right away!”
“What's the matter? Are you still struggling to find a suitable candidate?” Sharon asked with a smile as she entered the room.
The director calmed down when he saw that it was Sharon.
“Hi, Ms. Saunders! I'll leave you two be while I go look for more candidates!” said the assistant director.
He had just taken a few steps toward the door when he bumped into
Denise, who was wearing a fancy hat that complemented her short bangs and shiny eyes.
The assistant director's eyes were glued to Denise after seeing how pretty she looked.
This girl is beautiful! Wait, why does she look so familiar? She looks like... Oh, my goodness! She's the one the director has been looking for! She looks just like the character from the show!
“Sir! Sir!” the assistant director shouted excitedly.
The director looked up in annoyance. “What is it this time?”
The assistant director pointed at Denise. “L-Look!”
The director shifted his gaze toward Denise impatiently, only to freeze in shock when he got a closer look at
her.
Everything about her outfit and her appearance matched his requirements for the role perfectly.
