Chapter 157
Felicity understood who the “him” was referring to.
Single people, like Felicity, obviously could not understand the thoughts of someone deeply in love like
Stella. However, she was still happy seeing her best friend regain her confidence and positivity.
The car arrived at the destination shortly. When Stella went inside, she thought she had gotten the wrong
address. The so-called studio did not even have a storefront and only had a glass sliding door.
On the door was the word “Wood” with a missing letter
Felicity whispered to Stella, “Did Daniel get scammed by the company? Why does his studio look so
lousy?”
Truth be told, it was not that lousy However, for someone as reputable as Daniel, the studio seemed a
little too plain.
The two entered, and there was no receptionist by the door While the studio was relatively spacious,
there seemed to be few people there

The person was holding a stack of documents. She pushed her glasses up her nose and gave Stella a
once-over. “He isn’t here. Why are you looking for him?”
“Mr. Wood called me and asked me to come for a tryout. We scheduled it for nine-thirty.”
“A tryout?” The person frowned.
She continued, “Try out for what? Why haven’t I heard him mention it?”
Stella said, “Mr. Wood contacted me last night. Perhaps he hadn’t had the chance to mention it.”
“Then, which movie are you trying out for?”
“The Palace.”
“That’s impossible!” the person immediately exclaimed.
“All the roles in that movie have already been decided, so how could you try out for them? Besides, your
face is unfamiliar, and this is the first time I’ve seen you. Which company sent you through the
backdoor?”
Stella tried to keep a good temper. “I’m a newcomer, and I have taken part in the production team’s
auditions before. Perhaps you haven’t seen it.”
“What did you audition for?”
“The Beauty.”
The person froze. Then, she scrutinized Stella once more.
“Mr. Wood never gives second chances. How could a newbie like you be capable of getting one?
Stella smiled good-naturedly. “Maybe Mr. Wood finds my looks suitable.”
The person snorted quietly. “The drama we’re shooting is a serious one. Your looks are too unnatural.
Perhaps you could still earn money if you consider acting in idol dramas.”
Before Stella could respond, Felicity lost it.
“Your chin looks like an awl, yet you’re ridiculing others for looking unnatural? Are you allergic to naturally
pretty people? Go and see a doctor. If this face has gotten any plastic surgery, then I’ll change my last
name to yours!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe woman was instantly humiliated and angered by Felicity’s words. She pointed at Felicity and said,
“You’re so rude!”
“I’m rude?” Felicity was so furious, even Stella could not hold her back.
Felicity continued, “We were only asking you for directions. Tell us if you’re willing, but if you’re not, shut
your mouth! What did you mean when you said Stella got in through the backdoor and has unnatural
looks? Why did you ask that? Is it because, in your eyes, all good- looking people had to have surgery
and got their positions through sneaky tricks?”
The woman obviously did not expect Felicity to be this eloquent. She instantly turned red in anger and
pointed to the door.
“Get out! I don’t want to talk to ill-mannered people like you!” she said in a trembling voice.
The sounds of the argument startled Daniel, who was in the office. When he came out and saw the
situation, he frowned and asked, “What’s the matter? Why are you all fighting?”
The woman immediately ran over to him and complained, “Mr. Woods, where’d you find these people?
They’re so insolent! I merely asked them a few questions, and they started yelling at me. I’ve worked
with many actors, but I’ve never met any as rude as her!”
