Audrey entered one of the cubicles in the bathroom and closed the door.
Seeing that it was still early, Audrey sat on the toilet lid and played with her phone.
Two minutes later, Eric sent Audrey a message.
Eric: Where did you go?
Audrey’s scalp instantly tightened!
Oh no! Could it be that Second Brother had already realized that she was deliberately creating a chance for him and Becky to be alone, so he wanted to send a message to question her and say that she was being nosy?
Audrey decided not to reply to Eric’s message.
No matter what, she had to think about Second Brother’s happiness. She could not cause trouble for Second Brother at this time!
Seeing that Audrey didn’t reply to his message, Eric sent another message.
Eric: If you ignore me again, I’ll go to you.
How can this be! Audrey’s heart immediately rang with alarm! If Second
Brother leaves the auditorium at this time, wouldn’t he spend less time with Becky?
Audrey hurriedly typed a line of words in the typing box.
Audrey: Second Brother, I’m at the toilet.
Eric: Is that so?
Audrey: It’s true.
Eric: When are you coming back?
Audrey: Huh? Has the rehearsal started? Don’t we still have 15 minutes?
Eric was speechless.
Audrey: “Then, then you guys can start first. I’ll be back later.” Eric was speechless.
Audrey: “Second Brother, is it illegal for me to go to the toilet?”
Eric: There’s no hurry. There’s still fifteen minutes.
Audrey immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
Audrey originally wanted to play a game and go out to the bathroom ten minutes later, but she didn’t expect footsteps to suddenly come from outside.
“Hey, do you think Becky has really been selected for the stage play?” A young girl’s sweet voice sounded.
Upon hearing them talking about Becky, Audrey, who had wanted to stand up,
Soon, another girl replied disdainfully, “Hehe, it’s not like you don’t know her ability. So what if Director Eric doesn’t choose her? She still has a way.”
The two girls immediately laughed very sharply.
Audrey immediately felt dissatisfied.
These two girls were so young. Why did they like to talk about others behind their backs?
“What role is Becky playing?” the girl with the sweet voice asked again.
“Ha.” The other girl sneered. “You don’t know yet, do you? I heard that Becky was originally going to compete for the role of the female lead, but the female lead has already been decided. She doesn’t even look at herself… She actually wants to be the female lead? Hahaha…
The two girls laughed sarcastically and even said, “Her character is so bad.
Perhaps she used some improper methods to get this role…”
Audrey’s expression turned darker and darker. Soon, she coughed violently.
The two girls standing at the sink immediately stopped laughing.
Soon, the sound of fleeing footsteps came from outside.
Audrey sneered and opened the door.
Indeed, when a person was outstanding, it was easy to be the subject of envy. Audrey’s heart ached for Becky for a few seconds before she strode out. When Audrey returned to the auditorium, the rehearsal was about to begin.
“You’re back,” Eric said indifferently as he turned around.
Audrey nodded silently.
“The next scene is about the protagonist expressing his feelings to each other,” Eric said. “This is the climax of the plot—from now on, Romeo and Juliet’s relationship will be hindered by all sides.”
Audrey understood and walked to the center of the stage.
The actor playing the priest stood in front of Audrey and muttered, “Dear Juliet, are you really willing to abandon everything you have and run to your lover without hesitation?”
Audrey looked up with a pious expression. Suddenly, she heard footsteps behind her.
Audrey turned around and saw Romeo walking out from the backstage.
“Juliet, I’m willing to run to you!” Romeo said with an affectionate expression. Audrey immediately revealed a blissful smile and ran towards Eric!
Eric opened his arms and pulled Audrey into his embrace.
When Audrey was held in his arms, a strange thought suddenly arose in her mind.
It might have been more appropriate if Becky was playing Juliet!
If she suggested to Eric later that Becky be the female lead.. Soon, Audrey forcefully suppressed this thought..
