Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Rupert, why are you here?"

Cheryl was still a little surprised when she saw Rupert.

"You can come, but I can't come?"

"I did not mean that."

"That's what you mean." Rupert looked at Cheryl aggressively.

"That's what I mean, what do you want?" Sherel is not the kind of person who can be bullied by anyone.

Especially because of Sienna, she and Rupert were not the same person.

"Are you looking for death?"

Just when Rupert wanted to scare Cheryl with magic, she felt a murderous aura from a distance.

Chen Zhao, who was sitting in the front yard at the moment, had already shot him a murderous look.

Rupert immediately restrained himself: "Little wolf girl, be careful next time."

At noon, the family sat at the table to eat.

Rupert and Cheryl looked at each other with hostility.

If Chen Zhao was not here at this time, the two of them would probably start fighting each other.

"I hope that in my home and on my territory, you two will be more honest with me. I don't want Amon to take you out to sea for a while."

"As long as she doesn't mess with me, I won't take the initiative to cause trouble for her," Rupert said.

"I'm not afraid of you." Cheryl was also stubborn.

Rupert immediately shouted: "Do you want to fight?"

"I'll hit you. Are you afraid of me?"

"Come on, let's fight."

Fali didn't care at all. She liked the excitement and the children's play.

In her opinion, it is normal for children to fight and fight.

On weekdays, she and Chen Zhao were alone at home, along with a group of animals.

Nowadays, there are several children at home, which also makes the house lively.

"Da da da..." Little Gelin was the most excited one and kept shouting as if she was about to start a war.

Chen Zhao knocked on the table: "Did you forget what I just said a moment ago so quickly?"

During a lunch, Sheriel and Rupert parted on bad terms.

However, the two still fought openly and secretly where Chen Zhao could not see.

As long as there was no fight, Chen Zhao didn't bother to care about them.

…

"Mr. Steven, I want to audition for the role of the Asian male's wife." Chen Ke entered the audition set and came to Steven.

Although they are all role auditions, famous actors are different from ordinary actors and ordinary actors.

Famous actors can meet Steven directly, and Steven will personally interview and make a decision.

Ordinary actors need to be screened through many layers, and they may not even get to meet Steven in the end.

"Huh?" Steven looked at Chen Ke with some surprise as he handed over her information.

"Does Chen know about this?" Steven asked.

Chen Ke secretly thought that his cousin's status in Steven's mind was really not that high.

His first question was not about his acting career, but about his cousin.

"I don't know." Chen Ke replied.

"The prototype of this character is your cousin." Steven said.

Chen Ke's heart moved, but he still remained calm: "This is just a movie character and has nothing to do with reality."

"It's true that compared to other actors, you have an advantage in this aspect." Steven said.

Of course he would not decide an important role arbitrarily, and Chen Ke does have an advantage in this regard.

First of all, she is Chen Zhao's cousin, so she will definitely come into contact with Chen Zhao in life.

Coupled with her own popularity, acting skills, and the Chinese market behind her, they are all above the standard.

And there has been a cooperation before. Although it was only a very short cooperation, Steven still had a very good impression of Chen Ke.

In fact, the role of an Asian man's wife can be played by an Eastern or Western woman.

It is not yet completely determined, and a more professional assessment is needed before a decision can be made.

"So what's your salary?" Steven asked.

"Two million dollars."

This salary is considered to be the price of a second-tier star in Hollywood. Compared with Steven, this price is indeed affordable.

Steven thought for a moment and said, "I would personally prefer to invite you to join the crew, but I can't give you an accurate answer yet."

"Okay, Mr. Steven, I understand and I look forward to your reply."

"This script is part of the lines for your audition. You should take it back and study it first. Within three days, I will notify you of the second audition. I will give you an answer whether it is successful or not."

"Thank you, Mr. Steven."

In fact, even with what Steven said, Chen Ke is already 70% sure that he can win this role.

After Chen Ke left the audition room, Steven picked up the phone: "Hey, Chen, did you know that your cousin came to audition?"

"Oh, she went to your place to audition?" Chen Zhao was a little surprised, but it seemed to be reasonable.

"Well, the role she's auditioning for is that of your character's wife."

"Um...she's not suitable?"

"No, she's a good fit," Steven replied.

"Oh, if you think she is suitable, then use her." Chen Zhao said.

"Okay, that's settled then."

Steven actually had a plan in mind. He gave Chen Ke the script not to see if she was suitable, but to evaluate how many shots she could get.

In fact, the main characters of this movie are two old men and an Asian man. To put it bluntly, it is a man's drama.

Although the role Chen Ke auditioned for was the leading actress, in terms of role, she was only a supporting actress.

But to be able to play the heroine in Steven's movie, it is estimated that no one in Hollywood can refuse.

When Chen Ke walked out of the set, Wang Lu came to greet him.

"Ake, how are you?"

"Not bad." A smile formed on the corner of Akko's mouth.

I can’t say that the results of this audition are 100% certain, but I’m at least 70% certain.

"That's good." The two of them had just taken two steps when they saw a car parked next to them.

Zhou Xiaonan was getting out of the car with three people.

"Sister Nan." Chen Ke looked at the four of them in surprise. She did not expect to meet them by such a coincidence.

Zhou Xiaonan was equally surprised to meet Chen Ke here.

"Sister Ake." The three male actors were all older than Chen Ke, but when they saw Chen Ke, they all took the initiative to call her sister.

This is very common in the entertainment industry, where seniority means everything.

"Ake, why are you here?"

"I just finished the audition." Chen Ke said.

"Oh? You auditioned? How was the result?"

"Not sure yet." Chen Ke said tactfully.

At this moment, Chen Ke's phone rang.

Zhou Xiaonan discovered that Chen Ke's caller ID was actually calling from Steven.

She actually has Steven's phone number.

"Hello, Mr. Steven."

"Ms. Chen, after evaluation, my team and I decided to sign an actor contract with you. You may need to come again tomorrow. I will prepare the contract by then."

"Okay, Mr. Steven, thank you."

Chen Ke's phone call with Steven was heard by several people around him.

Everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Chen Ke. Zhou Xiaonan looked at Chen Ke in surprise: "Ake, have you got the heroine?"
