Book Transmigration: I Wanted to Keep a Low Profile, but Everyone Noticed Me!

Chapter 16

It wasn’t until the father and son stopped arguing that Audrey remembered Gary’s upcoming birthday on the following Saturday.

She felt conflicted at once, unsure about what kind of gift to get. Something too expensive was beyond her means, but something too cheap wouldn’t be presentable.

Fortunately, she still had a few days to think and prepare.

However, before that, there was something she had to focus on.

Daniel had sent her the audition time and location, and it was scheduled for tomorrow. This timing caught her by surprise.

Daniel understood that the time was tight for her, but it was what the production team had decided, and he had no control over it.

“Make sure you rehearse your lines thoroughly and make sure your outfit matches the character,” he reminded her.

Audrey agreed and wasn’t worried about her outfit. In terms of clothing, Gary never skimped on her. Whenever new collections arrived, both she and Charlotte received them.

As for the script, Audrey had already memorized most of it. She called Anna to let her know about the audition and asked her to accompany her.

The next step was to select a suitable outfit.

Upon hearing about Audrey’s audition plans, Anthea understood what kind of role she was auditioning for.

She said, “When you were in the hospital, the brand sent the new collection of the season. I kept it for you. Let me get it for you now so you can try it on and see if it’s suits you.”

The clothes had actually been delivered a few days ago. Every season, they would arrive at this time. Audrey would tell Linda everything in the past, and Linda often took advantage of the situation. There had been instances when she had persuaded Audrey to give her the new items.

And so, Anthea had decided to wait, fearing that Audrey might give them to Linda.

However, from her recent observations, Audrey had changed a lot and probably wouldn’t easily fall for Linda’s tricks.

There were many items in the collection, including clothes and accessories. After Audrey tried them on, she found them very fitting.

She exclaimed happily, “I’ll wear this outfit for the audition tomorrow.”

Anthea also found it suitable. The sky-blue dress highlighted a noble and elegant temperament, aligning well with the character she was auditioning for.

“Since you’ve decided to do this, give it your best shot. Don’t give up halfway,” Anthea encouraged Audrey.

Audrey nodded. This was a field she was passionate about, so she would naturally give it her all.

The next day, Audrey headed to the audition location early in the morning.

It seemed to be a temporary location rented by the production team.

Audrey’s audition number was closer to the front, so she was concerned about being late. After entering the building, she hurriedly led Anna to the elevator.

When they arrived, the elevator doors were just about to close. Audrey rushed over and held the doors open, not paying much attention to who was inside. She mumbled an apology and entered.

Once Anna was inside as well, Audrey pressed the floor button. Only then did she notice that Anna’s expression seemed odd.

Baffled, she asked, “Anna, are you feeling unwell?”

Anna didn’t answer, her gaze fixed on something behind Audrey.

Frowning slightly, Audrey followed Anna’s gaze and turned around. With just one glance, her body froze.

Evans Hill.

Audrey regretted her hasty rush to catch the elevator; she should have waited for the next one.

“Mr. Hill, what a coincidence.”

Evans didn’t overlook the unease in the girl’s eyes. He offered a slight nod and greeted, “Miss Audrey.”

Although he was a friend of her eldest brother, their relationship wasn’t close. They had only met a few times. Audrey found herself at a loss for words, and Evans appeared even more aloof than her brother.

Audrey lowered her eyes slightly and couldn’t help but complain inwardly.

[He’s like a walking freezer. Anyone around him will freeze to death.]

A fleeting expression of amusement flashed in Evans’ eyes. In contrast to the girl’s discomfort, he seemed perfectly at ease. Adopting a casually familiar tone, he inquired, “What brings Miss Audrey here?”

Audrey looked up at the man, feeling puzzled.

[We’re not exactly acquainted, are we?]

“I’m here for an audition,” she answered truthfully. It wasn’t something confidential, so Audrey opted for honesty.

Evan’s smile grew slightly broader as he remarked, “Then I wish you the best of luck in your audition.”

Audrey was momentarily surprised before responding, “Thank you.”
