Chapter 67 An Old Grandpa
After watching Lottie and Alfred sign the letter of intent for cooperation in the audition hall, Isobel was released by the security guard.
Luke had been waiting at the entrance of the Thunder Pictures Entertainment Building.
As soon as Isobel came out, he quickly approached her and gently held her hand. “Isobel, how are you?”
“Have you passed? Did you get the role?”
“Did Lottie help you?”
Isobel was furious when she heard him mention Lottie!
Lottie!
Did Luke really think that Lottie was the one who had allowed them to do whatever they wanted?
As Lottie’s former best friend, Isobel knew very well that she was a soft-hearted person. She had been tolerant of everything in the past because she didn’t want to cause trouble but not because stilling loving Luke as he thought.
But now…
It was obvious that Lottie was no longer willing to give in.
She took a deep breath. “Lottie didn’t help me.”
“She got the heroine this time.”
“The last winner of the audition is her.”
Luke was stunned.
At this time, he saw Lottie and Natalia walking out of the building together.
He dashed forward and pulled her aside. “Lottie, how could you do this?”
“I’ve told you that this play is very important to Isobel…”
“It is also very important to me.”
Lottie looked at Luke’s face and suddenly felt that he was pitiful.
She took a deep breath, rummaged through her bag for a long time, and finally found a cuckoo key button.
It was bought by Connie when they were at the seaside of Caknard. She thought it was cute and kept it in Lottie’s bag.
She stuffed the cuckoo into Luke’s hand and smiled. “Here you are. Calm down.”
“Isobel lost this role, but she got you.”
“As for me, as you said, Mr. Chapman doesn’t care about me. I can only rely on myself. Unlike Isobel, she can rely on you.”
“So, I’ll take this role. You can help her find some others.”
After that, she turned around and left with a smile.
Luke frowned. He looked down at the cuckoo key button in his hand and frowned.
What did Lottie mean?
A cuckoo? Was she cursing him for being a cuckold?
What a joke!
He and Isobel had been together for more than five years, and their relationship was very stable. She must be jealous!
…
After leaving Luke, a car stopped beside her when she had just walked to the side of the road.
“Lottie, shall I send you back?”
The car window rolled down, revealing Kayden’s sunny and handsome face.
Lottie smiled, opened the car door, and sat in.
In the back seat of the car, Natalia was sitting there.
When she saw Lottie, she smiled gently. “Congratulations.”
“Thank you.”
Kayden sat in the passenger seat and looked at the woman in the rearview mirror with a smile. “But your performance today really impressed me.”
“I used to think that you were good at acting, but I didn’t expect you to be so good!”
Lottie was a little surprised. “They are good competitors.”
“I’m not good at acting, much worse than Natalia.”
“Stop flattering me. You did well.”
Natalia handed her a bottle of water with a smile.
“By the way.”
Lottie looked up at Natalia. “I must thank you for introducing me to the teacher Mr. Chapman.”
“Without he, there won’t be our audition today, and I won’t get this role.”
Natalia was confused for a while before she realized that Kayden seemed to have made up a teacher Mr. Chapman.
She coughed slightly and said, “Mr. Chapman… he’s a good person.”
“Well.”
Lottie nodded seriously,”Mr. Chapman does gets along well with us.”
“I admire such ‘an old man’ very much.”
“Puff!”
Kayden, who was drinking water in the front row, spat out a mouthful of water.
If he guessed correctly, the “old man” mentioned by Lottie should be his uncle, Ralph Chapman!
Kayden held back his laughter and said, “Yes, Mr. Chapman must be ‘an old man’ with young mind.”
Lottie pursed her lips, and thought she was correct. Mr. Chapman was an old man in his fifties.
So she continued to say with a smile, “I want to buy some gifts for Mr. Chapman.”
“Although a gift may be common to him , I still want to express my respect.”NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
After saying, Lottie looked at Natalia seriously, “Can you arrange for me to meet Mr. Chapman?”
Natalia was stunned and looked up at Kayden.
“Okay, okay!”
Kayden said, “Natalia and Mr. Chapman are familiar with each other. Let her arrange it for you.”
Natalia: “…”
She was really not familiar with Ralph!
However, since Kayden had said so, Natalia could only nod awkwardly, “Okay, I’ll arrange it for you.”
“I get out of the car at the intersection ahead.”
Lottie glanced out of the car window. That was a large shopping mall in that intersection.
“I go to buy gifts for Mr. Chapman and some food for Elijah and Fabian!”
Kayden nodded and ordered the driver to put Lottie down.
“Why don’t you tell Lottie Mr. Chapman is your uncle?”
Natalia frowned and asked in a low voice.
“It’s funny.”
Kayden looked at Lottie’s back and a sneaky smile appeared on his face. “What do you think my uncle’s reaction is when he is looking forward to meet with Lottie, but finds Lottie treats him as an old man’?”
“I want to follow Lottie tomorrow and hide in the corner to take photos. Uncle’s face must be very exciting.”
Natalia rolled her eyes at him, “The amount of your pocket money after that will be very ‘exciting’.”
Kayden was speechless.
Forget it. His pocket money was more important!
…
Lottie heard the salesgirl explaining for a long time; finally she bought a pen and a box of tea for Mr. Chapman.
The salesperson said many upper-class elders liked this.
Although the price was a little too much, Lottie still felt it was worthy.
She bought some delicious food for her two sons and took them home together.
At home, Ralph and her sons were there.
Ralph was leaning on the sofa to read the newspaper in an elegant way . Elijah was sitting on the sofa playing with his computer, while Fabian was sitting on the carpet playing with the puzzle.
“Mrs. Chapman is back!”
Hearing the door open, Fabian dropped the puzzle. When Elijah put down the computer, Ralph also raised his head.
In the face of the gazes of the three men, Lottie cleared her throat nervously, “My audition is successful!”
“I’m going to be the female lead of the movie!”
Lottie’s words made Fabian jump up excitedly, “Great!”
“Not bad”
“Well.”
Ralph continued to look down at the newspaper while Elijah continued to play with his laptop.
Lottie, “…”
Fabian blinked at her. While flipping through Lottie’s shopping bag, he secretly said, “They’re more worried about you than I am.”
“They are pretending not to care. How coquettish it is!”
Lottie looked up at Ralph and Elijah, who were still pretending to be serious, and a smile appeared.
“Mommy, what’s this?”
Fabian asked, holding the tea box and the pen box.
“Be careful.”
Lottie quickly took the box and put it away. “This is a gift for Mr. Chapman.”
Hearing Lottie’s words, Ralph’s hand holding the newspaper paused slightly and a smile appeared on his lips.
“Who is Mr. Chapman?”
“He’s an old man.”
Ralph: “…”
