Chapter 24: That Bitch!
Michelle was deeply offended by Director Jeunes’ question. Even though it was something as simple as asking her to introduce herself, she still felt like she didn’t need to.
Swallowing her pride, Michelle parted her lips to speak, “I’m Michelle Wallace.”
This was the second time she would be acting in a movie Mr. Jeunes was directing if she passed the audition.
“And what role will you be playing out for us?” Another judge asked. He had low-cut hair but was a little overweight.
“I will be playing the part where Queen Jammiah catches King Ardine on the bed with his concubine,” she replied.
“I see. Well, the stage is all yours. Wow us, Mrs. Wallace,” said another judge as he gestured his hand towards the stage where she was already standing.
Michele brought out her script and began acting. It only took her five minutes before she finished.
The other four judges clapped for her performance before she exited the room and gave the other people the chance to audition for their specific roles.
“Michelle, how was the audition?” Mia, Michelle’s assistant asked her as she quickly opened a bottle of water for her. The fact that she didn’t use much time to wow the judges just proved that she was great in the judges eyes, and also in the eyes of the crowd.
“Of course, it went well,” Michelle replied, drinking from her bottled water. “I will get the role, Mia,” she added confidently.
Michelle found Selene talking to Kace and she walked towards them.
“So Selene, after you are done auditioning, let’s hang out?” She offered.
The smile that was on the latter’s lips immediately faltered but she immediately composed herself.
“I’m sorry but I’m going to be busy practicing my lines. I’m sure all you need to do is just look at the scripts and you are good to go but I need to practice, Michelle,” she politely declined the invitation, adding a bit of compliment to make Michelle gloat.
“Come on, I’m not that good. But alright, let’s hang out another time and you practice your lines. Give your best and make sure you get accepted,” Michelle wished her while Selene smiled at her.
All of a sudden, a lady tapped Michelle on the shoulder, grabbing her attention.
“Yes?”
The lady held a script in her hand which meant she was also part of the people who were auditioning for a role. She was shaking with her head lowered.
“P-please can I take a-a picture with you?” She requested.
Michelle smiled at her. “Of course, darling.”
Michelle took a pic with her and other people took the chance to request a picture from Michelle until Mia thought it was enough.
Michelle waved Selene a goodbye as she exited the hall and Selene returned it.
“Now I’m curious, why is she acting like the both of you are besties? I mean, you too just met,” Kace wondered out loud.
“It’s definitely part of their plan,” Selene replied.
When it was finally Selene’s turn to audition, she excused herself while Kace wished her luck.
Selene entered the room and her eyes landed on the judges, she immediately bowed respectfully. The aura in the room was so intense that her palms only sweated even more.
The judges were quite surprised with her good manners. When Michelle had walked in, she didn’t even bother to greet them.
She had accompanied Michelle to many auditions in the past when she was still her assistant, and she knew a few things to do when you want to audition. Always be polite, it gives extra credit.
But since this was the first time she was auditioning for a role, she was pressured.
“Good day, may we know your name please?” A judge asked, the only overweight one among them.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
“I’m Selene Jones,” she replied respectfully with a bow.
“Selene Jones? A rookie actress?” Another one asked and she nodded.
“Yes, sir.”
“In that case, what do you have to show us today?”
Selene brought out her script before she replied, “I will be playing the part where Queen Jammiah catches King Ardine on the bed with his concubine,” she replied.
The judges shared a look. Director Jeunes’ eyes narrowed at Selene Jones.
She was only a rookie and she was already aiming for the female lead role.
‘You have to be kidding me,’ he thought to himself.
“The stage is all yours.”
Selene nodded.
She closed her eyes, taking a deep breath. When she opened them, her entire demeanor had transformed, embodying the essence of Queen Jammiah. Disbelief and sadness were etched into her expression, her eyes turning red with a seething rage. Tears naturally pooled in her eyes, completing her metamorphosis into the tormented queen.
“So you have been cheating on me with this good-for-nothing whore you brought to this palace?” She asked. “You played me like a fool. You told me you loved me but you still cheated on me?”
Selene didn’t get the chance to say her other lines when she heard someone clapping from the judge’s table.
Her eyes landed on Director Jeunes, who was clapping with a broad smile on his face. The other judges followed suit, their applause filling the room. Anastasia’s heart swelled with a mix of relief and triumph as she took in their approving expressions.
“Marvelous, Ms. Jones, that was simply marvelous,” said director Jeunes. ”
Selene bowed happily as she exited the room. She resisted the urge to hop towards Kace when she found him waiting for her.
“So you got in?” He asked her.
“I’m not sure, but director Jeunes clapped for me. I will just wait for the list to come out first,” she replied.

Michelle was at the Wallace garden. She was seated with her legs crossed as she sipped from her glass of juice. It’s been two days since the day of the audition and none of the judges had called her yet.
She decided to go to the website where the list of people who passed the auditions will be posted.
Michelle’s eyes lit up with a smile when she saw the role she had auditioned for. However, when her gaze landed on the name listed beneath it, her expression darkened. Her grip tightened involuntarily, shattering the glass cup in her hands.
Queen Jammiah
Selene Jones
“That bitch!”
