Chapter 9 Acting with Mr. Limbaugh
Charleston squinted his eyes. "There are a lot more expressive models in Haverland," he stated.
The assistant director's smile froze.
Margaret couldn't help but take a step forward and refuted, "Mr. Limbaugh, are you trying to replace
me? Why?"
"Because..." The man walked up to Margaret gracefully and answered in a low voice, "I wasn't
impressed by your performance."
"What the f*ck!" Margaret thought to herself.
Seeing the man gloat with mockery in his eyes, Margaret knew that he was just avenging his personal
grudge.
Margaret tried her best to squeeze out a stiff smile. "Mr. Limbaugh, maybe you haven't seen my
performance in person, so you aren't able to feel my charm," she said.
"Do you want to perform again?" Charleston raised his eyebrows.
Margaret was quick to see the sarcasm behind the man's orbs.
She immediately understood that this man deliberately wanted her to look like a fool.
In an instant, anger rose in Margaret, which triggered the stubborn side of her. She grabbed the script
and quickly flipped to a page. "Let's try with this part, then. Mr. Limbaugh, are you game?" she fronted
him.
"Sure." The man agreed.
Only then did Margaret lower her head to read the script. It was a scene where Tiana was trying to
seduce a rich man.
Margaret knew that no matter what she did, this man would make her a laughing stock in front of
everyone.
However, she had to get this role. She needed the money!
In the advertisement, Tiana's rainbow azure necklace represented the hearts of seven men. This
particular scene for the audition saw Tiana in enchanting traditional clothes attempting to seduce a man
who was already attracted by Queenie Lycons, the main character of the movie.
"Let's begin," Charleston said as he sat on the chair.
Margaret took a deep breath.
When Margaret was three steps away from Charleston, her facial expression changed. She
immediately got into character.
She was now Tiana.
Margaret turned around to face Charleston, blinked at him, and spoke in a soft voice, "Do I look good?"
A strange light flashed across Charleston's eyes as he stayed quiet.
"Better than Queenie," Charleston replied. Margaret then got herself very close to Charleston in
seconds. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
In the script, the man was tied to a chair, so Charleston shouldn't move.
When Lucille suddenly inched this close to him, Charleston smelled a fragrant scent.
It didn't smell like sprayed perfume, but rather a mild fragrance that a person would get if the same kind
of body wash was used for a long period of time.
It was just like a feather touching his heart in gentle strokes.
The only time he had ever felt like this was with Suanne Adams on that fateful night. Regardless of how
glamorous a woman could be, he just never felt the same way as he did.
Despite this, the woman in front of him, who had not done anything, almost made him lose his senses
just by being in close proximity.
"There are countless men wanting to date me in Ocean City. Why are you not interested in me?"
Margaret continued the play.
Tiana was annoyed and reached out her hand to touch the man's chest.
Her slim, bony hand touched his body. A hint of desire flashed through Charleston's eyes. He parted
his thin lips slightly and gave her a serious look. "Get out." he said.
Margaret's eyelids twitched.
"No, I won't. You will be tempted by me..." Margaret advanced towards him, smiling like a fairy.
She gently touched his hand and deliberately pinched the place where he had just been bitten.
Charleston let out a muffled groan and saw Margaret smiling through her shimmering eyes.
"Oh, this wild cat did that on purpose." Charleston suddenly realised.
"Cut!" The deputy director shouted and ended the session.
Margaret then got up and smiled innocently. "I'm really sorry, Mr. Limbaugh. I pinched you just now
because the plot requires me to do so. So, what do you think of my performance?"
Charleston sneered, opening his mouth to speak.
However, Margaret came close to him again and said, "Mr. Limbaugh, I know you felt something just
now. Make sure you tell the truth, alright?"
