Forbidden Passion

Chapter 468 Taking Grace to Audition

Evan had been shooting a crime drama lately, and the whole crew was camped out at a studio in Kedora. Phoebe pulled the car over to the side of the road. Phoebe said, "Alright, we're here. Hop out."

Grace unbuckled her seatbelt and stepped out. She saw the set all lit up in the distance and felt a mix of excitement and awe.

Phoebe walked over and said, "Let's roll."

Grace gave a shy smile and followed her towards the set. As they got to the entrance, a slightly chubby young guy, Ulysses Xavier, came up to them all enthusiastic.

"Ms. Ziegler, Evan's shooting a night scene and asked me to fetch you. Is this the new talent Queen Entertainment just signed? What a stunner," Ulysses gushed over Grace. Grace blushed and looked down, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Phoebe laughed. "Ulysses, you always know how to flatter. This is Grace Sullivan. Make sure she's taken care of on set."

"Don't sweat it, I'm glad I could help! Ms. Ziegler. This way, let's head to Evan's dressing room and wait for him." Ulysses led Phoebe and Grace across the lot to Evan's dressing room. Evan's dressing room was spacious and cozy.

After they sat down, Grace nervously glanced around. The makeup table was loaded with high-end beauty products, and there were tons of costumes hanging on a rack nearby. Phoebe and Ulysses started chatting. "When's this show wrapping up?" Phoebe asked.

"In another two or three months. Vincent Abbott is super strict with filming, especially crime dramas. Every detail's gotta be perfect. Getting through one or two scenes a day is already a win," Ulysses whispered.

Phoebe had heard of Vincent and smiled. "Strict is good. His stuff always gets great ratings, but it's tough on the actors."

"Yeah, Evan's thinking about switching it up. He wants to do more serious dramas. He can't keep doing these idol dramas forever; he's maturing, and it's not a good fit," Ulysses said, glancing at the door now and then, worried Evan might catch him talking.

nodded thoughtfully.

most prominent stars face the pressure of reinventing their image. They hadn't been seated long when the door to the dressing room swung open. Evan walked in, wearing a military coat. Evan exuded a commanding presence, and as he entered, the room seemed to brighten as if basking in his aura. Despite his imposing vibe, he was holding a hot water bottle with bunny ears, which was super cute. Grace was taken aback. Evan walked up to Phoebe, a hint of accusation
