Let Me Go

Director Ian pointed at a few more people and sent them away.

Erica heaved a sigh of relief. That finger didn’t point at her.

She discreetly observed the people around her. It was only then that she noticed that within a span of less than two minutes, there were only less than five of them remaining.

“See that note in your hands? That’s right, all of you have been given the same topic for this audition. Just the word ‘cry’.”

Director Ian pushed his specs back as he spoke.

Although he hadn’t reached the age of fifty, his hair was fully white, making him look extremely old. His voice was also filled with melancholy, “From now on, I’ll give you a minute to perform.”

As Erica stood there in a daze, the other four actresses started kneeling on the ground and bursting into tears. Their sobs were full of sorrow, and some of them were even bawling loudly, as they started shouting out a fictional name that they came up with, adding more action to their crying scene.

Erica was usually slow in getting immersed into her role. She knew this herself, hence every time when she was filming, she would arrive an hour earlier than others. However, an audition was unlike a shoot, no one would give you ample time to prepare beforehand. Moreover, she had just obtained the question.

She didn’t have sufficient time to prepare, hence when Director Ian asked them to stop, Erica’s tears were just starting to form around her eyes.

“You, you, you… Go back.” Director Ian’s hands pointed over, and Erica felt resigned as she picked up her underwear and prepared to put them on, but all she saw was Director Ian frowning as he said to her, “You, cry one more time"

Erica looked at the director in astonishment.

“You didn’t cry just now, so I’m giving you another chance.” After Director Ian said this, he looked at Erica, “You have another minute”.

“She’s taking a long time to get into the role.” The man beside Director Ian spoke up. His voice was low and attractive, and sounded extremely pleasing. “Should I go up to help?”

Director Ian was somewhat surprised as he eyed the other man. “Sure"

“Noah Eden!” The actress beside Erica piqued as she covered her mouth in surprise, “It’s really him!”.

Erica was shocked too. That man was actually the movie king Noah Eden.

When Noah Eden was twenty four, he won the Best Actor award from Director Ian’s movie “Red”. Back then, it was globally famous, and this popularity continued for a few years.

It was said that he went overseas to study a few years ago, and he’d left for a few years. He’s finally returned, but he didn’t have any acting projects. Who would have thought that they would meet him here, at the venue of Director Ian’s audition?

Noah removed his shades before walking over.

The colours of his eyes were very light. Such an eye colour made him appear extremely cold, and when he was taciturn, he would appear even more frigid. He lightly dropped his shades on the table.

He stopped in front of Erica. He didn’t say a word, but abruptly, he gripped her neck and pushed her down onto the wooden floor.

A sudden jolt of pain attacked her fragile spine. Before Erica could cry out in shock, the actress beside her was so terrified that she screamed.

Hearing that actress’ scream, Erica then clearly understood that the movie king was now helping her get into her role.

Cry.

Could it be… Crying because of r*pe?

After she understood the word, she immediately started struggling. The same thought continued to attack her mind, This man wants to r*pe me. At this point, tears started streaming down her face, and she sobbed as she shouted, “Please, let me go….”

Her tears covered her entire face. She cried till her body was shaking hard, and her voluptuous br*asts accidentally grazed the corner of the man’s shirt. Because of the cold material, her n*pples also became slightly erect.

Erica had a beautiful body. Her skin was extremely fair, and when one looked at her body, they would think of the idiom “skin like gelatin”.

Many women were beautiful, but they didn’t look good when crying. However, Erica wasn’t like that. She looked exceptionally beautiful when she cried. When her tears were brimming just then, Director Ian was already interested to see how this woman looked when she sobbed.

Now that he witnessed it, his gaze brightened, and he immediately called out, “Alright.”

“You can go back now.” Director Ian told the other actress, then looked at Erica and said, “These few days, you have to maintain your figure. There must now be any scars of changes to your body. If there’s any questions, you should contact me as soon as possible. Three days later, come to this place, and we’ll start filming.”

Director Ian gave her a name card and address, then turned to leave.

Director Ian was stunned for a moment, then finally realised that her audition had been successful. She quickly stood up and thanked Director Ian. It was after that that she remembered the movie king Noah Eden, who was still standing beside him.

“Thank you.” She covered her chest in a somewhat awkward manner.
