Chapter 1903 Clinging To Nicole Like A Burr
Nicole was surprised that Yuvan was an orphan, and that fact also aroused her sympathy. “What a poor child! Hurry up and get up.”
After getting to his feet with her help, Yuvan glanced at Evan before asking timidly in a whisper, “Mom, what do you think of my acting earlier?”
At once, Nicole went silent. Frankly speaking, I think it was horrible. His acting was night and day from the emotions the script wanted to portray. Anyhow, I’m not a professional actress, so we should hear from the professional from the director team.
Thus, she turned to the person in question. “What do you think of his acting?”
The professional from the director team said nothing for a moment, contemplating it solemnly. Just when he was about to speak, Evan interjected, “Isn’t the answer to that obvious? He’s not cut out for acting. He decimates the script, so this industry doesn’t suit him. If he insists on staying within the industry, he should go the comedian route. That’s suitable for him!”
“A comedian?”
Astonishment was written all over Yuvan’s face.
Nicole dipped her head and kept mum. She felt that Evan’s opinion had a shred of truth to it.
He has no problems adding some unexpected twists every time we go through our lines, so taking the comedian route might be a good choice for him.
The professional from the director’s team swallowed the evaluation he had prepared and expressed his agreement with Evan’s opinion, asserting, “Mr. Seet is right, Yuvan. This path he pointed out to you is really promising. Everyone is pretty busy, so why don’t you go to other production teams and see whether they need a creative comedian like you?”
Upon hearing that, Yuvan was taken aback.
Is he kicking me out?
Immediately, he cried out, “No, I don’t want to leave! I like this production team, and I don’t want to part with Mom. It isn’t easy to find such a good mother. Even if I’m not going to get to act, I want to stay with my mother every day. Anyway, I’m not leaving!”
“You’re simply unreasonable! Why are you clinging to Ms. Lane like a burr?”
“I’ve never experienced the love of a mother. So, I’m willing to be a burr if it means that I’ll get to enjoy some motherly love!” Yuvan seemed determined to stick to Nicole.
Exasperated, the professional from the director team turned to Nicole. “What’s your take on this, Ms. Lane?”
“I’ll ask Sheila whether she can add some scenes for him as a cameo while doing so for Zayden and Joy.”
“Thank you, Mom! Thank you so much, Mom! You’re the best!”
Smiling widely, Yuvan smugly threw the professional from the director team a look.
Ignoring him, the professional from the director team nodded. “Okay. Anyway, he’s not suitable to play your son.” Subsequently, he turned to Yuvan and snapped, “Following this turn of events, stop addressing Ms. Lane as ‘Mom’! You can’t act as her son anymore!”
“How I address her is my business, not yours! Mom, you won’t object, will you? I’ve never had parents since young, so I yearn to have a mother. Will you make my wish come true?”
The professional from the director team sneered, “Why should Ms. Lane do so? There are countless orphans in this world. Is she supposed to just allow it if all of them wish to address her as ‘Mom’? Besides, why must you fixate on her? There are plenty of people suited to be your mother—the janitor at the side, the lady selling vegetables at the market, and even the group of actresses over there! Why don’t you go over and call them ‘Mom’? To my thinking, you’re simply opportunistic, picking someone powerful on purpose!”
“How could you say that? There are also tons of people suited to be your mother, but I don’t see you calling them ‘Mom’! Besides, only Ms. Lane can give me that kind of motherly feeling. Am I wrong to call her ‘Mom’ according to my feelings?”
“I haven’t got the time to yak with you here! Ms. Lane, this guy is really opportunistic. I’m sure he’s only calling you ‘Mom’ because he wants to take advantage of you. Therefore, please be careful. Furthermore, your two sons, Mr. Juan and Mr. Kyle, are talented and intelligent. In fact, they’re the cream of the crop! Why would you allow this mediocre kid to call you ‘Mom’? He’s not worthy of it!”
