Chapter 349 : Eric ‘ s Abnormality
Quinn turned around and looked at Eric, who was assigning roles. Then, he said with a troubled expression, “Audrey, to be honest, I was also very shocked when I first saw that Becky wasn’t chosen.”
“Why?” Audrey was clearly shocked. “She clearly acted so well, so why wasn’t she chosen?”
Quinn turned to look at Eric again and said, “I asked Eric about this yesterday, but he said that he didn’t think Becky was suitable for this stage play.”
“Why not?” Audrey was still very surprised. “She clearly acted so well, but Eric didn’t choose her? How is that possible?”
“I’m not sure.” Quinn shrugged. “If you can, you can find a chance to ask your brother what’s going on.”
Audrey didn’t say anything else. Instead, she looked at Eric with a complicated expression.
“Alright, the roles have been assigned.” Eric held the script in his hand and said to the students, “Let’s begin.”
As the female lead in the drama, Audrey was about to appear on stage at the beginning of the stage play.
The first scene was about Romeo and Juliet’s first meeting at the ball.
When the two masked characters met, cheerful and lively background music soon sounded.
This was Audrey’s first time acting with Eric. When she saw him walking towards her, she almost couldn’t help but laugh.
It was too strange. This was Audrey’s first thought after seeing Eric on stage.
Audrey had always thought that Eric was used to working behind the scenes. Perhaps he was already a little rusty at acting. However, to her surprise, Eric’s performance was not bad.
Eric memorized the lines very well. Most importantly, when he read the lines, he was completely invested in his true feelings.
Upon seeing this, Audrey quickly adjusted her state and began to seriously rehearse her lines with Eric.
At the end of the first scene, Quinn asked the students to take a break first. Then he came to the front of the stage and said to Audley and Eric, “I keep feeling that you’re missing something. ”
“What’s missing?” Audrey asked curiously. “Do I need any improvements?”
Quinn thought for a moment, then looked at Eric and said, “First of all, I think Romeo and Juliet looked at each other with exploration and curiosity when they first met.”
“But,” Quinn laughed, “I find Eric’s eyes full of affection every time he looks at you.”
Audrey didn’t notice Eric’s abnormality and only said, “Is that so? I didn’t sense it.”
Quinn smiled. “My dear, as the actor in the play, you’re lost in the drama. It’s only natural that you don’t see it.”
Eric suddenly interrupted, “It’s okay. I’ll adjust my expression when the time comes.”
“It’s the look,” Quinn reminded him pointedly.
Eric laughed helplessly.
Audrey spent the entire morning rehearsing with everyone. At noon, Eric finally called for a halt to let everyone rest.
“Your performance is alright,” Quinn said to Eric. “I’m looking forward to your exciting performance next month. ”
After bidding farewell to Quinn, Audrey turned to Eric and said, “Second
Brother, let’s go to the canteen to eat.”
Eric nodded and left the auditorium with Audrey.
Audrey was about to walk towards the dining room when Eric naturally reached out and grabbed her arm. “Let’s eat outside today.”
“Ah? Are we going out to eat?” Audrey was somewhat surprised. “Aren’t we going to the school’s restaurant?”
Eric nodded silently.
Hence, Audrey followed Eric out of the school gate and got into his car.
Perhaps Eric was too tired from the rehearsal. He had not said a word since he got into the car.
Audrey stared blankly at the scenery outside the window. After a while, a premonition arose in her heart.
She had a feeling that Eric’s sudden decision not to eat at the school restaurant might have something to do with Becky.
Audrey turned to look at Eric’s side profile and hesitated.
“What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly looking at me like that?” Eric noticed
Audrey’s actions and couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Is there something on
my face?”
