The Broken-hearted She And The Icy He

Chapter 6

Chapter 6 Lily Left Him Breathless

Lily thought he’d seen her.

But a moment later, he gently tucked the blanket tighter around Elsa.

Clearly, he hadn’t noticed her at all.

Lily’s lips curled in a cold, self–mocking smile.

Whether a man loves you or not… it’s always painfully obvious.

So obvious that Lily felt her wholehearted devotion had been the most ridiculous joke in the world.

She would never be that foolish again.

She didn’t look at John again–not at him gently letting go of Elsa, not at him walking across the street to line up for cake. She turned away without hesitation and walked in the opposite direction.

Now that she’d left John, it was time to pursue her voice acting dream.

She had always loved the anime Nirvana–especially the character “Siren.”

That series had just announced an open casting for Siren’s voice actor. Lily had sent in a sample recording per their requirements and had been invited to audition at the studio the next day.

From now on, she only wanted to shine in the field she loved. Who cared about chasing after some man?

The next morning, Lily arrived early at the studio for her audition.

Siren was a massively popular character, and nearly fifty voice actors had come to audition.

They were drawing lots to determine the order, and Lily drew the very last slot. She waited for over three hours before it was finally her turn.

She was incredibly nervous.

The director overseeing the auditions today was none other than Daniel Quinn, the lead director.

Daniel was notoriously picky and sharp–tongued. One of Lily’s favorite veteran voice actors had just run out of the studio in tears.

If someone of that caliber didn’t make the cut, Lily’s chances were practically nonexistent.

But this was her dream. She couldn’t afford to back down now..

As soon as she got Siren’s script, she sank into the scene. Her nerves vanished.
