Chapter 1897 Without Any Talent Or Experience
When they retook the scene later, Yuvan still couldn’t perform to the director team’s satisfaction.
The director team then gave some suggestions according to his performance before asserting that they must finish filming that scene tomorrow afternoon no matter what. Due to his poor acting and their fixed schedule, they contemplated having someone else play the role instead.
As soon as Yuvan heard that he might lose that opportunity, panic showed on his face, and he begged the director, “Can you please give me another chance? I promise to painstakingly practice when I go home tonight and try my best not to have any retakes tomorrow.”
Since Sheila recommended him, the director team discussed it among themselves before deciding to give him a chance.
Nonetheless, they warned him in advance that he would be asked to leave the production team if he still couldn’t pass tomorrow, and they would choose someone more suitable to replace him.
“I’ll do my best to practice!”
With anxiousness written all over his face, Yuvan lowered his head and looked at the script solemnly.
Nicole walked over to him and looked at him sincerely. “Do you really want to act in this movie?”
Yuvan nodded. “Yes. Not only is this a rare opportunity for me, but I really like this character.”
At the earnest expression on his face, Nicole announced, “I’ll help you!”
The second Yuvan heard that remark, hope sparked to life in his eyes, and he gaped at her incredulously. “I’m very dumb, and your time is incredibly precious. Are you really willing to help me?”
“I might have been injured yesterday if it weren’t for you. You lent me a hand yesterday, so it’s only right that I do the same for you today.”
“Thank you! Thank you so much!”
Yuvan grew excited, but Nicole smilingly told him not to worry about it.
Subsequently, she started practicing with him again and again without getting annoyed.
As night fell, the filming for Maya and Wilbur’s scenes as the male and female leads ended. They came to seek Nicole out, only to see that she was helping Yuvan out.
Maya watched for a while at the side. Clocking Yuvan’s stiff acting, she couldn’t help lamenting, “It’s a pity that he hasn’t any talent for acting. Do you think he can do a good job?”
“He’ll probably get better with more practice,” Wilbur reckoned.
“The sky has darkened, and it’s time to go home. I’ll go and ask Mommy when she’s planning to leave.”
Maya then went over and interrupted them. Nicole, on the other hand, lifted her head and glanced at the pitch-black night. “How about continuing this tomorrow? Think about the few things the director told you earlier. You can give me a call if you don’t understand something or put your query to the director.”
In response, Yuvan nodded. “Okay. It’s late, so hurry up and go home.”
Before leaving, Maya suggested that he buy a few books about acting and brush up on his knowledge. After a moment’s consideration, Yuvan echoed that and said he would be doing so.
During dinner, Maya coincidentally mentioned that it would be difficult for Nicole to act alongside someone who hadn’t the talent or the experience.
That remark of hers piqued Evan’s curiosity.
“Without any talent or experience? Why would the production team recruit such a person?”
“Because—”
Before Maya could answer that it was because the person saved her mother, Nicole interjected, “Although he has never studied acting and doesn’t have much talent, he’s very diligent and eager to learn. Besides, his image suits the character, so Sheila gave him an opportunity.”
She didn’t want Evan to know about her near trip after Melissa shoved her. Firstly, the matter had been resolved, and she feared that he might worry. Secondly, she was afraid that he would refuse to let it rest. If he were to pursue it further, Melissa’s parents might be dragged into the mess.
She ordered an investigation into Melissa and discovered that her father was an ordinary employee while her mother was ill and couldn’t work. Their family wasn’t all that well-to-do either, so she wanted to let it go since the matter had passed.
Casting a glance at her, Maya understood that her mother didn’t want her father to know about that matter. As such, she didn’t say anything more.
Evan was silent for some time before he asserted that someone couldn’t be a good actor just because he was assiduous. Instead, it also hinged on whether he was cut out to be one.
Therefore, he inwardly decided to go and have a look when Nicole was filming tomorrow. If that Yuvan guy isn’t cut out to be an actor, I’ll have Sheila change him at once, lest he tires out my wife!
