Chapter 440 - 439: Taking the Job for Her
The two chatted for a while longer, then Archer Quinn looked at the watch on his wrist and said, "Bella, let’s go back for the audition. Director Simons and the others should be about done drinking."
"Alright." Bella Acker stood up and said, "We’ve been out for so long, do you think Director Simons will find me impolite?"
"Only thinking about this now?" Archer Quinn opened the private room door and turned back to look at her with a smile.
Bella blushed with embarrassment. Earlier, under the influence of alcohol, she was only focused on her sadness and had long forgotten about work.
Thinking about it, she really felt sorry for Ms. Young’s good intentions.
Archer Quinn said, "Don’t worry. If Cynthia Young couldn’t handle this, she wouldn’t be one of the top agents in the industry. Besides, I have a good relationship with Director Simons. If there’s any issue, I’ll talk to him."
Bella scratched her cheek, "Senior Quinn, since I’ve known you, it seems like I’m always troubling you."
"Am I? I don’t think so." Archer Quinn chuckled and said, "Go wash your face and sober up a bit. Director Simons casts actors based on talent, not connections, even more impartial than Director Ford."
Bella nodded. As she walked into the public area of the restroom, she stopped and turned back to ask, "Senior Quinn, the opportunity for this audition from Director Simons, aside from Ms. Young’s connections, is it also because of you?"
She wasn’t foolish. Ms. Young brought her here for the audition, and Senior Quinn, originally filming at the base, suddenly showed up at the dinner. It couldn’t be a coincidence.
Moreover, Senior Quinn had mentioned before that he wanted to introduce her to Director Simons.
Archer Quinn smiled, "I do have a magazine cover to shoot, and I wanted to take this chance to connect with Director Simons, as I’m the male lead in the film he’s preparing. I didn’t expect that he had arranged for you to audition at the same time, so I came by to take a look."
Bella was taken aback, "Senior Quinn, you’re the male lead?"
"Yes." Archer Quinn nodded, "The contract has already been signed."
"Then I better try my best later. Acting alongside you, I could learn a lot." Hearing his explanation, Bella didn’t think further and turned to wash her face.
Archer Quinn finally breathed a sigh of relief. He wanted to be good to her and pave her way in showbiz but feared crossing a line and making her sense something unusual.
The film Director Simons is preparing, "Life and Death," did indeed offer him the script, inviting him to play the male lead. However, his schedule for this year was already arranged last year, leaving no time to shoot this film.
He had originally planned to decline the script, but now... Bella said she could learn a lot from acting with him and seemed eager to work together, so he’ll accept the film.
As for adjusting the schedule, that’s when agents and management teams need to step up.
Bella washed her face, felt a bit more awake, and then returned to the private room with Archer Quinn.
Originally, there were only four people in the private room, but now there were several more scantily dressed beauties.
Aside from Cynthia Young, the other three men in the room each had one or two beauties leaning against them. When Bella saw this scene upon returning, she was stunned.
Archer Quinn was already accustomed to such scenes, and with a gentle smile, he stepped forward.
Director Simons glanced at him and then at Bella, with a teasing look that only the two of them could see.
Archer Quinn pretended not to notice and smiled, "Director Simons, it’s getting late. How about letting Bella audition now?"
