Chapter 167 It Happened So Fast

Actually, Henric was not confident. He didn't graduate from drama school and didn't even go to college. He came from a rural area and only went to a physical education college. However, he was proud and didn't want to be a gym teacher like his classmates. He thought it was a waste of time. At the time, military dramas were very popular. One of his seniors was cast as the lead actor and became popular. Henric felt that he saw hope. He got into acting with the help of his senior. At first, he was a stunt double and wanted to be as popular as the senior, but he was not so lucky. Several years later, he was still unknown. He approached the movie's producer and sold his body so he was finally cast as Richard. He thought he would be a hit after working with Dion, but suddenly he was asked to play Timothy and Dorian stole his role because he was recommended by the investor. In show business, connections were far more important than strength. Dorian was now a popular actor and had more than ten times the number of followers on Twitter than him. Countless fans were willing to buy the products he endorsed. Plus, he was recommended by the investor.

Henric could only compromise, but he was reluctant. If Dorian's acting was poor, there would be many people scolding him when the movie was released. He expected Dorian to make a fool of himself, but it didn't happen. Dorian looked better in costume than he did and understood the role very well. When he spoke, even Henric was impressed and everyone clapped for him. What makes Henri even angrier was that Dorian's martial arts skills were not inferior to his. He mastered the moves after the martial arts director demonstrated them twice. He was so flexible and everyone applauded after each martial arts scene. Henric had been a stunt double, but he was outdone by Dorian, which completely hurt his pride. According to the script, Timothy was supposed to hold off the pursuers at the edge of the cliff and push Richard off to save him. It was actually a mountain but it was very steep. Henric pretended to accidentally push Dorian off. 'You're just luckier than me. I sold myself to the producer and you sold yourself to the investor. You're no better than me! Without you, I'd have been Richard,' He thought as Dorian rolled down the mountain. Now the investor was here. Henric wondered if she was here to avenge Dorian. Hailey stared at Henric quietly for a moment and suddenly said, “I just watched your performance. You're very dedicated. Good job." Jodie complimented Henric with a flattering smile, but Henric didn't respond. Jodie turned his head and found him lost in thought. He elbowed him. "Ms. Newman is complimenting you." Henric stopped staring and bowed to Hailey. "Thanks, Ms. Newman." Hailey seemed pleased with him and turned to say to Dion, "Dorian's badly hurt and won't be back anytime soon. Henric was supposed to

play Richard, wasn't he? I think he's good. Why don't we cast him as Richard?" Her words shocked everyone. Was she going to recast? Dorian had already shot many scenes. If they recast at this point, many scenes would have to be reshot and it would waste a lot of money. They all thought Hailey was being capricious. Dion agreed, "Okay. Let him try." Henric was completely stunned. Jodie elbowed him and he excitedly bowed to Hailey and said, "Thanks, Ms. Newman. I won't let you

down!" But who would play Timothy? Hailey thought about it and said, "In that case, there's no one to play Timothy. Dion, I'd like to recommend an actor to you. What do you think about Jamie Redfern?"

In fact, she was pushing Dion, who was known to choose actors carefully. After all, a good director didn't need to listen to producers and investors, but instead of getting angry at her, he gently asked, "Ivana's nephew?". Hailey nodded. "Yes, he works for me now," She said in front of the crowd, but no one dared to say anything. After all, money talks. "We can try. When will he arrive?" "Tomorrow morning." "Okay. That's it for today. Everyone back to rest." Dion put down his speaker, stood up, and turned to ask Hailey, "Dinner tonight?" Hailey nodded. "Sure." Dion raised an eyebrow. "Will you cook?" "I'd love to," Hailey replied. After all, she had to give something. Dion respected her in front of the crowd and she couldn't embarrass him. It was just that he was a picky eater. Hailey bought out the biggest local restaurant and invited the whole crew to dinner. Many of them had felt sorry for Dorian, but they

changed their minds quickly. Alter dinner, Henric had his makeup removed and returned to the hotel, but he was suddenly told to move to a deluxe single room. Looking at the bright and spacious room, he was once again confused, Jodie exclaimed, "Only the most popular actors are being treated this way, Henrie, Ms. Newman must be interested in you." Henric's eyes widened. He had the same thought, but at Jodie's words, his ears turned red and he stammered, "No, no..." Both in age and appearance, he was not as good as Dorian. Ms. Newman was rich and surrounded by handsome men. How could she possibly be interested in him?

Henric's face turned red. He'd done this sort of thing once before. He was straight, and Ms. Newman was more beautiful than the attractive than the fat producer. He should be happy, but he was inexplicably scared and nervous. Was i because it happened so fast?
