Chapter 69 What a Pity for Such a Pretty Face
It wasn’t because Arya was too conceited, but she was very clear on what standard Caroline’s acting skills were. It was just a matter of time before she would be discovered she was a fraud. Arya wondered how Davina would handle it then.
“Let’s go in and pretend that we don’t know about it.”
The drama would only be interesting when there is a twist in the plot towards the climax.
She had something Davina didn’t even know about. The executive director, Nasha, actually had a close relationship with her, apart from being her acting instructor, they had also worked on two movies together. At the time when she announced her retirement, Nasha had called her a few times to ask her to go abroad, but Arya declined and thanked her.
With that kind of connection, what is there to be afraid of?
When Allen told her who the executive director was, Arya could hardly believe her luck and was very happy.
When she opened the door, she found that Daniel and Caroline were having a discussion with the Assistant Director, Jason.
Luna whispered softly, “We aren’t late. They deliberately arranged the time for us so our time don’t overlap.”
Arya acknowledged with a nod and gracefully pulled out her chair to sit across from them.

Jason’s eye lit up when he saw her. He not only noticed Arya’s beauty but also her calm demeanor. He was very intrigued to know what strength she could bring under such a tranquil face! This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“This is?” He looked towards Davina.
As planned, Davina smiled and replied, “She is Arya, one of our local artists.”
“Arya?” Jason’s expression instantly changed. He shook his head and muttered in English, “What a pity for such a pretty face.”
“Mr. Jason has only just heard my name, what do you mean by that?” Arya responded back in perfect English.
“We will not accept an actress like you. I think we can talk about signing the contract another time. I’ll need to speak to the executive director again.”
He had heard the rumors about Arya which Davina’s employees have been spreading and thought Arya was a decoration without any acting skills. Also using her body in exchange for advancing opportunities and that was why she retired.
As far as the Assistant Director was concerned, Arya’s reputation was ruined beyond repair.
“Mr. Jason, please let me explain, Arya made a few mistakes but she really is a good actress.” It was rare to have Davina to speak up for Arya. But in actual fact, under the circumstances, she was adding fuel to the fire.
Jason frowned as he shook his head, “Our production would be ruined! We need actors who know how to act professionally! Otherwise it would be deceiving the audience.”
Jason pushed his swivel chair away, got up and walked towards the door.
Arya stopped him as she spoke softly, “Mr. Jason, this is our first time meeting each other. You already misunderstood me after you heard a few rumors from other people about me. Aren’t you too arbitrary?”
Jason turned around to look at Arya doubtfully, “How dare you say that?”
Actors in the foreign entertainment industry were always polite to him. With Arya challenging him with her stern tone greatly angered him.
“I never thought your acting is so bad and you have such a terrible temper. I will definitely speak to the executive director for help. I refuse to work with you in future.”
