Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 142 It’s Really You!

It was Percival again!

Erin glanced at the warning note in her hand and clenched it tightly. One of the suspects, Percival, had just laken the initiative to come and practice a scene with her.

She called out toward the door, “Wait a moment. I need to change my clothes.”

“It’s okay. Take your time.” Percival said politely from outside the door.

Erin immediately walked into the dressing room, where there was a separate restroom. She threw the note into the toilet and flushed it. watching as the paper went down the toilet. Afterward, she returned to the makeup room and checked herself in the mirror. Once she confirmed that her makeup was fine, she walked over and opened the door.

At that moment. Percival was standing at the door with his back facing her, holding a script in his hand. When he heard the door opening. he turned around. He was dressed in a light blue costume with intricate patterns, and his makeup was exquisite. He looked exactly like a young prince.

In the movie, he portrayed a treacherous prince who constantly plotted against the crown prince and had an obsession with the fox demon. He was an antagonist, a villain.

Erin smiled at him. Recalling the affair between Percival and Megan, and thinking about the plot in the movie, she couldn’t help but feel that life imitated art.

“Erin, you are the perfect fit for the demon hunter role in the entire cast. You’re quite captivating!” Percival’s eyes showed admiration, albeit restrained to some extent. Sometimes, the eyes could easily reveal someone’s true feelings. From his eyes, Erin could perceive the peculiar gaze he directed toward her.

She couldn’t find the right adjective to describe it, but it was definitely nothing good.

“Mr. Lowe, if you have something to say to me, come on in.”

Her invitation brought a smile to Percival’s face. He responded, “Alright. Let’s head inside and discuss the script.”

She’d already turned and walked back in. The makeup room was now under the watchful eyes of the crew members, so even if Percival had any ulterior motives, Erin wasn’t afraid. She could call someone in at any moment.

After entering the makeup room, Percival chose to sit on the sofa right away.

Seeing that Erin had closed the door, he smiled and said, “The screenwriter made some last–minute changes to the scene. The director hasn’t officially informed everyone yet, but this scene is between the two of us. How about we rehearse it in advance?”
