A girl next to Beatrice said, "Beatrice, you're such a troublemaker. That's the meeting room of the director and scriptwriter; isn't she just asking for trouble by barging in there?"
"Yeah, I heard the big boss and investors are there today. The director of this TV show is Zoe, and he's got a terrible temper. She will definitely be kicked out."
Beatrice replied, "Exactly, I want her to embarrass herself. She thinks she can audition for the lead role? Dream on, she's way too cocky."
Agnes walked straight into the meeting room. But after two steps, Agnes stopped. There was a row of people sitting in the room. What was going on? In front of this bunch of people was a big screen, playing auditions from another room. Hearing the noise at the door, everyone turned to look at Agnes.
Agnes stood still for a moment and quickly apologized, "Sorry, I entered the wrong room." She was about to turn around and leave.
"Hold on."
Agnes stopped in her tracks; a middle-aged man had quickly walked up to her. He looked Agnes up and down, seeming pleasantly surprised, nodding while saying, "Tess, look, doesn't she look like your character, Sylvia?"
Then a woman with thick glasses also walked over, looking at Agnes as if she had found a treasure: "She's got the right temperament and good looks. Director Zoe, your eye for talent is really good; we haven't had a satisfactory audition yet."
Director Zoe slapped his thigh and said, "Let's go with her; she's our Cinderella."
Agnes was completely stunned; could anyone tell her what on earth they were talking about?
Director Zoe turned around and asked, "What's your name? If there's no problem, we can sign the contract and get the script this afternoon."
Although Agnes didn't quite understand what was happening, she knew these people must have misunderstood something.
Agnes explained, "I'm not here for the audition; you've got the wrong idea."
"If you're not here for the audition, then what are you here for?"
"I'm here to find someone."
"Who are you looking for?"
"She's here to find me." A deep and magnetic male voice came from not far away.
