Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Chapter 1911 A Lesson In Improv

The trio arrived before the cameras and prepared themselves in accordance with the script. Joy was calm as she had already memorized her lines and rehearsed her expressions as many times as was possible. Her father’s presence and encouragement the night before seemed to have emboldened her greatly.

Evan sat close to the front. Upon catching his daughter’s eye, he smiled reassuringly and gave her a thumbs-up which Joy reciprocated.

Zayden, on the other hand, appeared slightly nervous. Something’s wrong. I swear I’d memorized my lines, but I can’t remember any of them now!

Sheila watched her son struggle and was forcibly reminded of the incident at the poetry recital. With a resigned sigh, she strode at once and knelt next to him. “You got this, Zayden. I believe in you! There’s no need to be nervous.”

Zayden’s hands twisted in his lap uncomfortably. “I forgot my lines, Mommy,” he whispered as he gazed up at her before lowering his gaze quickly as though expecting a scolding for having done something wrong.

How could he have forgotten? I’d watched him work on it just last night!

Fearing that a public reprimand would be counter-productive, Sheila suppressed her irritation at her son by handing him the script instead. “Here, refresh your memory.”

Zayden scanned through his lines hurriedly. “I remember now, Mommy.”

Sheila patted him on the shoulder. “Do your best.”
