The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 75

Chapter 75

Yvonne strutted among a group of actors waiting to audition, her nose in the air. “I’m the young lady of the Schnabel family. Since I’m here for the audition today, this role is as good as mine!” The other bit players looked at each other, a bit lost. But Briony, sitting in the corner, suddenly had a lightbulb moment.

Ms. Schnabel? The same Schnabel family that livestreamed their birthday bash around the world?

She remembered trying to watch the livestream but got kicked out because of a lousy internet connection before she could see Ms. Schnabel’s face. And now, she could actually see her here in the flesh!

Yvonne paraded around with her chin up, scoping out her competition for the role.

Her brother had agreed to let her audition, and she wasn’t about to settle for some minor role where she would have to kneel and serve the lead. The mere thought made Yvonne’s skin crawl.

“Ms. Schnabel, this role is definitely yours, but as for the other roles…”

Yvonne glanced at Briony, who had spoken, and frowned, “Who are you to speak to me?”

Briony wanted to suck up to her, but Yvonne wasn’t buying it at all! And now Yvonne had embarrassed her in front of everyone, leaving Briony with no way to save face.

Some people around them snickered, clearly unimpressed by Briony’s brown–nosing. Yvonne’s gaze swept over the actors and landed on a woman who hadn’t said a word.

“You, drop out of this audition.”

“Me? You sure?”

Yvonne felt a strong sense of threat from this woman. If she was around, Yvonne was sure she wouldn’t land the lead role.

“I’m talking to you, missy. Which company are you with, huh? Got no eyes or what?”

“I’m Yasbel, with East Sea Culture Company. What advice do you have for me, Ms. Schnabel?” Yasbel sat there cool as a cucumber, legs crossed, oozing charisma with just a glance, making all the auditionees‘ eyes pop.

She looked at Yvonne, who was dressed like a peacock, her sly eyes slightly mocking.
