With a poised exit, Elizabeth departed alongside Ruby, leaving the onlookers stunned and mute as they watched her leave.
In the audition room, as Elizabeth entered alongside Ruby, both the director and the screenwriter were immediately captivated by her presence. Surrounded by the industry’s finest talent, Elizabeth managed to stand out in a way that was impossible to ignore. Her beauty, vivid and striking, was paired with a natural grace that made her seem almost otherworldly. She embodied the heroine from the screenplay, bringing her character to life in a way that was impossible to miss.
The screenwriter chuckled, commenting, “It’s as if our heroine has jumped right off the page—what a shame the author didn’t capture this moment.”
Ruby, noticing the screenwriter’s enthusiasm, nudged Elizabeth, signaling her to step forward for the audition. After a brief introduction, Elizabeth readied herself to immerse in her role.
Just then, Stewart Lopez, the male lead, made a surprise entrance. “I’ll be joining you for the audition,” he announced with confidence.
Though initially taken aback, Elizabeth’s sharp instincts kicked in, and she adapted seamlessly. She quickly realized that the production team had likely orchestrated this surprise to test the auditionees’ ability to handle unexpected challenges. With that thought in mind, Elizabeth steadied herself.
The audition began, charged with palpable energy. Within moments, Elizabeth was in character, matching Stewart’s intensity with her own. Their chemistry was undeniable, and their interactions flowed effortlessly. Stewart, impressed by her quick adaptation, glanced at the director and unexpectedly improvised a line that threw a twist into what was supposed to be a calm ending to the scene.
Elizabeth paused for a split second, then smoothly redirected the scene, turning what could have been a misstep into a moment of brilliance.
“That’s incredible! We’re done!” The director, clearly impressed, jumped to his feet and applauded. “Despite Stewart’s attempts to throw off the scene, Elizabeth’s quick thinking made it even better than the original script. We might want to rewrite that part!”
