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

Chapter 21

After Gary and his three wives peacefully divorced, their relationship didn’t become particularly strained. On the contrary, they continued to interact like friends.

Moreover, the Lance family maintained a business partnership with the maternal side of his three wives.

They themselves didn’t mind, but they hadn’t thought about the feelings of their three children.

During dinner, Audrey realized that Eric was in a bad mood. Although he didn’t refuse to eat out of spite, he gritted his teeth as he ate.

It was as if it was not food in his mouth, but an enemy who had an irreconcilable feud with him.

[“Why is he angry again? Was he a powder keg in his past life?”]

Eric paused his chewing and looked at Audrey in speechless disbelief.

Audrey sensed his mood but still puzzled, asked him, “What’s my second brother looking at? Do you have something to say to me?”

Eric snorted lightly, “What’s there for me to say to you? Just eat your meal properly.” Don’t just keep criticizing me every day.

He didn’t say the latter part out loud.

Audrey was utterly confused. It was him who wasn’t eating properly, not her.

She glanced at Abner, who ate with elegance, and then at Eric, and couldn’t help but think to herself.

[Indeed, people are different. Big brother is elegant in everything he does, but him, he’s practically a textbook example of the opposite.]

Both brothers paused in their actions. By now, they had developed a habit – whenever they were with Audrey, they would unconsciously glance at the top of her head.

Seeing this, Abner cast a glance at Eric.

Surprisingly, Eric was also looking at him at that moment.

Their gazes met briefly in the air, and then both quickly looked away.

Seeing the varied expressions on the three children, although he didn’t know what had happened, Gary advised, “No fighting during meals.”

All three of them turned to look at him, wearing oddly similar expressions: Where did he see a fight?

Seeing this, Gary even had a smile on his face. He sighed, “This is how you really seem like brothers, keep it up.”

Abner: …

Eric was speechless.

Audrey’s gaze shifted between Abner and Eric a few times before coming to a conclusion.

[“Although their personalities are different, you can still see that they’re brothers. They still share some facial similarities.”]

Abner and Eric exchanged another look, both trying to identify the features that resembled each other.

After finishing dinner, Gary took Anthea out for a walk.

Abner went to the study room.

Eric was feeling quite restless; he made plans to meet up with friends for drinks.

Audrey went back to her room, planning to search for how to make bookmarks. She found a local studio that specialized in custom bookmarks and allowed customers to get hands-on.

She made an appointment by phone and planned to visit tomorrow.

After sorting that out, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Before going to sleep, she received a call from Daniel.

“Audrey, you’ve passed the audition,” Daniel said straightforwardly, without beating around the bush.

Audrey felt a surge of joy in her heart. She had indeed put in her utmost effort, but she wasn’t entirely confident. After all, this was a supporting female role. She had spent several years in the industry and had only managed to secure the best roles for supporting female characters.

Daniel didn’t have overly high hopes either, given that Audrey was a complete newcomer and not from an acting school background.

“Since you’ve passed, you should prepare well. Also, remember to come to the company tomorrow to sign the contract.”

Audrey replied, “Okay.”

Daniel paused for a moment and added, “The production team is in a bit of a hurry. You might need to start filming in about two weeks. Your weight isn’t up to standard yet, so make sure to lose weight properly.”

Audrey said, “I understand. But Daniel, I want to know who will be playing the lead roles in this show.”

After a moment of hesitation, Daniel honestly told her, “The production team originally planned to announce the cast once all the roles were finalized. However, since you’re curious, I’ll tell you in advance. The female lead is Elena, and the male lead is Emond. Although they aren’t extremely popular actors, they both have a certain level of recognition and notable works. As a complete newcomer, you might face quite a bit of skepticism when the official announcement comes.”

Audrey’s expression turned slightly grim. She had hoped to avoid the male and female leads, but now the male lead was from the same company as her, and she was about to collaborate with the female lead as well.

The book didn’t seem to mention this show. The original host and the female lead intersected in another production.

Oh well, as long as she didn’t act as mischievously as the original host, there shouldn’t be any major issues.
