Jilted Bride 99

Chapter 99

James' face was not looking good. He let out a soft sigh, giving Kevin a look that seemed to say. "See, this is the guy you picked"

Kevin on the other hand, pushed up his black-rimmed glasses upon seeing Rex in person. With that youthful face mixed with an air of defiance, Rex was exactly how Kevin had imagined Aiden to be in the early part of the script. Despite not being much of a talker. Kevin surprisingly took the initiative to explain the scene to Rex.

"Oh, got it," Rex said, standing up and removing his jacket. Let's get started."

His manager, smiling politely, turned to Thomas. "Could Mr. Collins do a scene with him? He doesn't do well with miming"

"Sure. Thomas responded and approached Rex.

The scene for Rex's audition was where Aiden tried to test Franklin after learning the truth.

"Franklin, you and my father were like brothers. Do you know about me back then?" Rex asked in a playful, almost joking tone.

"No." Thonns responded as Franklin.

"Oh what's my next line again! Forget it. Let's just jump to the big part. Rex suddenly grabbed Thomas' collar, raising his fist as his eyes flickered with an inappropriate smirk. But just as he swung, he felt a force blocking his punch, causing him to lose his balance and stumble back a couple of steps

"What the hell?" Rex was stunned for a second, his eyes flashing with frustration.

When he regained his composure, he saw Ophelia standing in front of Thomas. Ophelia was stunningly beautiful. Any trace of anger in Brain's eyes instantly faded away. His eyes blinked rapidly.

Everyone knew that Rex was infamous for his bad temper, and he did whatever he wanted because of his family background. Just as everyone expected him to explode and maybe even tear the place apart, they watched in shock as Rex looked at Ophelia like a puppy mesmerized by a treat. If he had a tail, he'd surely be wagging it furiously by now.

Rex asked. "Wait Are you doing the scene with me too?"

Perhaps it was because Emily had previously worked with Rex. Ophelia couldn't bring herself to like him If it weren't for Kevin insisting that Rex was perfect for the role of
