Chapter 47:
“Let’s schedule the audition for this afternoon. The crew needs to get moving.”
“Got it.”
As Khloe hung up, Henrik walked over and slid onto the couch beside her, slipping an arm around her waist and handing her a
glass of milk. “An audition?” he asked, raising an eyebrow.
Khloe took a sip, the warmth of the drink spreading through her. “Yes, we’ve brought in a new director, Elwood Wilson. It’s only
natural for him to have his own conditions.”
“Elwood Wilson?” Henrik’s eyes narrowed, a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth. “The audition’s this afternoon? Let me
come with you. How about I be your assistant?”
The audition was scheduled at the Starshine Entertainment building.
Even though Khloe remained composed, Tess couldn’t shake the need to pick her up herself, just to ensure everything went off
without a hitch.
When Tess arrived and spotted Khloe’s car in the lot, she hurried to open the door. But to her surprise, a tall figure stepped out
first.
Her eyes widened as she gasped, “Henrik!”
Henrik emerged from the car, looking nothing like the man Tess was accustomed to seeing in suits. Today, he wore a more
casual, youthful look.
His sharp features were even more striking in this laid-back outfit.
The collar of his white shirt was slightly open, revealing a defined collarbone, and his loose jeans emphasized his long legs. His
white sneakers were immaculate.
Tess could hardly believe her eyes. Henrik had never looked this vibrant before. She’d only ever seen him in the formality of
suits. He looked stunning!

Khloe certainly had an effect on him—he was dressed younger for her.
Then, Henrik reached back into the car to help Khloe out. Khloe looked equally polished in a white, professional suit. Her long
hair cascaded down her back, and the silver-rimmed glasses perched on her nose added an intellectual charm.
waist and effortlessly lifted her out with one hand.
One was tall and strong; the other, petite and thin. A dashing heartthrob and an elegant lady—a contrast that was simply
adorable.
The sight was too beautiful for Tess to look away from.
She stood there, mesmerized, until Khloe noticed her. “Tess, what’s wrong?”
Henrik glanced over at Tess and smirked, understanding her reaction. “Don’t mind her. She’s just starstruck.” His dismissive tone
made Khloe laugh, and she leaned in close to Henrik’s ear, whispering playfully, “Tess is so amusing. I didn’t know she could be
starstruck. People say she’s a tough boss.”
“Hey, I’m still here! Khloe, don’t believe anything Henrik says. Let’s go up!”
Tess quickly snapped out of her daze and led the pair upstairs, filling them in on the details as they made their way up.
“Elwood has invited other actresses to audition too. There are twenty more competing for the role.”
“No problem. I know he must have doubts about me. Today, I’ll prove I’m the right choice.” Khloe nodded, unfazed. They reached
the waiting room, where a group of actresses, assistants, and agents were already seated.
As soon as Khloe entered, the room fell silent, followed by a collective gasp.
When Khloe entered the audition venue, every eye was instantly drawn to her.
