Free Web NovelChapter 187: Chapter 187: My Sister is the Prettiest, Number 1 in the Universe
The director, Paul Lancaster, stood to the side with wide eyes, waving his arms in excitement. "Vivian! This young lady is the Vivian I’ve been picturing!"
Just a few days earlier, Nina Sinclair had come to the set to audition.
The moment Paul Lancaster laid eyes on her, he was deeply disappointed.
The Vivian he envisioned was beautiful, yes—a girl of seventeen or eighteen—but not with the kind of forced youthfulness Nina Sinclair was putting on.
He didn’t give her a second thought after the screen test and announced the result right then and there.
When Nina Sinclair heard the outcome, she threw a huge tantrum.
Paul Lancaster had told her at the time, "You don’t understand the essence of *Rivers and Mountains*, nor do you understand what kind of character Vivian is."
After all, no sane person would show up for an audition in the mountains wearing a pair of red high heels.
She was dressed so extravagantly; anyone who didn’t know better would have thought she was on a red carpet to accept an award.
Ever since Nina Sinclair left, they hadn’t found any other candidates.
Today, the former female lead, Sharon Thorne, heard this news and strutted in like a proud peacock.
She had a naturally good presence, and her acting skills were commendable among her peers.
Ever since Paul Lancaster had so heartlessly kicked her off the set, she had been holding a grudge.
Now that she’d heard Paul still hadn’t found a suitable actress, she returned to ask him to reconsider.
Paul Lancaster despised this kind of behavior. Although he didn’t call her out openly on set, his sharp, confrontational attitude was still palpable.
Sharon Thorne was trembling with anger, but given Paul Lancaster’s status in the industry, she couldn’t openly defy him.
When Paul Lancaster scolded an actor, it was called ’guidance.’
If she were to talk back, it would be called ’disrespect’.
So, Sharon Thorne gave up on the director. When she saw Gabriel Sinclair, she turned her attention to him instead.
Others might not know, but she knew perfectly well.
Gabriel Sinclair—the younger son of the Sinclair Group’s chairman and one of the future heirs to the company.
’If I could latch onto a wealthy scion like him, why would I bother acting in this industry anymore?’
’Wouldn’t it be better to just go home and be a rich man’s wife?’
But while the fantasy was beautiful, reality was cruel. freewёbnoνel.com
Gabriel Sinclair didn’t even glance at her, instead squatting on the ground to look for a phone signal.
Sharon Thorne was furious, but there was nothing she could do.
Just as she was about to have her assistant snap a few candid photos to stir up some scandal, Gabriel Sinclair, who had been squatting on the ground, suddenly shot to his feet and brushed past her.
Her gaze followed his, and her pupils instantly constricted. frёewebηovel.cѳm
Because Gabriel Sinclair was hugging a girl tightly and refusing to let go.
From her angle, she could just make out Chloe Sinclair’s profile.
Sharon Thorne stared intently at Chloe Sinclair. Just as she was about to speak, Paul Lancaster, who was standing nearby, spoke first.
Sharon Thorne’s heart sank.
But the director had already walked over to stand before Gabriel and Chloe Sinclair.
He pushed up his glasses, his eyes shining with a fervent gaze.
Gabriel Sinclair snapped to his senses. "Director, this is my sister, Chloe Sinclair."
It had been too hot on the way over, so Chloe Sinclair had taken off her mask.
When she revealed her face, everyone was stunned.
But Gabriel Sinclair’s words struck them all like a clap of thunder.
’Gabriel Sinclair has a sister?’
’How has no one online dug this up?’
In fact, it was nearly impossible to find any information online about Gabriel Sinclair’s life before his debut.
But Paul Lancaster and Gabriel Sinclair had a good relationship. He had added Gabriel’s private social media account and knew that, at some point, Gabriel’s feed had become filled with constant posts about his sister—"My sister is the most beautiful," "My sister is number one in the universe."
"Gabriel, don’t you think your sister looks a lot like Vivian?"
Paul Lancaster’s voice was shaking with excitement, and he tripped over his words several times.
"What school and program is your sister in? I’ll get in touch with them and have her come act for our film!"
