The Return of the Disguised Princess Chapter 169
Chapter 169 Competing for the Heroine
The news saying that Amelie locked up a fuss when filming spread throughout Prosperity Global Entertainment,
including Lamont, who had just returned from the hospital
Jay and Cynthia were both embarrassed by her actions.
“Aren’t you too self–centered about this matter? Why didn’t you discuss it with me in advance?”
In the CEO’s office, Lamont still looked pale, and he was impatient because he has just recovered and now he
rushes back to
deal with this affair.
But it seemed that Amelie would not give in upon this conflict.
“If I haven’t seen the contract last night, wouldn’t you also want to let Cynthia catch me off guard? Wouldn’t you
also want to hide it from me?”
Lamont didn’t know how to explain to calm her down, and she didn’t give him a chance to speak at all.
“Besides, why did you find it difficult to tell me about this in advance?”
“Because of Jay, and because you can’t let the Cayenne Group down so you are eager to sign that contract. You
made it that everyone want to do, but you know that there are two people who have been trying to set me up. It’s
hard to persuade me to take the script, so you keep putting it off.”
At this moment, he who should have responded doesn’t say a word, so Amelie thinks that she is right.
“You can’t change the fact that the director is Jay, and the fact that Cayenne asked me to take the script, but you
didn’t tell me that I would play the supporting actress.”
“I neither intend to stop acting nor go against the wishes of the company, but I have the right to compete for the
opportunity to play the heroine because I think that Cynthia isn’t acting as good as mine as a heroine. Why can’t I
fight for myself?”
Amelie hears a helpless sigh in the air, and finds that Lamont is looking at him gently.
“I don’t blame you for fighting for the heroine for yourself. What I mean is that if you tell me in advance, I can help
you.”
Amelie is stunned. Has this man been out of his mind recently? Why does he always want to help me?
Shouldn’t he be worried that he may offend Cynthia and the people from Cayenne?
Lamont doesn’t act in a normal way, so she doesn’t know what to say for a while.
“I’ve already spoken to people manager of Cayenne, and they have agreed to add a new audition this afternoon,
switching the roles of you and Cynthia.”
In addition, I asked Miriam to clean up an office exclusively for you. This is the key.”
IN
Lamont’s mind is clear, and his is pretty calm, as if there has never been affairs between them, and what they have
been. through is just ordinary working and cooperative stuff.
Amelie thinks for a long time. This man must have had a fever last night and now has gone crazy, or he must have
stung by
conscience.
However, that big and noisy practice room is really not suitable for her, though she is getting used to it. Lamont is
so generous and prepared a special office for her, amazingly.
This kind of treatment is really unacceptable for her.
So she steps forward calmly, and takes the key as if it is what she deserves.
“Then thank you, Mr. Byron, for your generosity. Since Mr. Byron also agrees with me to compete for the position of
the heroine, then if I have any conflicts with partners of the Capet family, Mr. Byron can not blame me for that.”
There is no emotion in his eyes, and Amelie couldn’t even tell whether he is willing or unwilling to do it.
Forget it, she doesn’t bother to guess. Since she is the his office now, she still has one thing to negotiate.

“What else?”
Seeing that she seem not to be leaving his office, Lamont asks her before she says something.
“Mr. Byron, I am applying to cancel Cynthia’s right to be my temporary manager. I should have an official manager
who actually belongs to me, not a puppet at Cynthia’s mercy.”
Lamont nods, “I will take it into consideration, but at present, none of the senior managers of Prosperity Global
Entertainment is available.”
“It’s okay. If Mr. Byron doesn’t mind, I want to find a manager by myself. First, to protect my personal safety, and
second, to concentrate on serving me alone.”
The expression on the face of the man sitting opposite to her finally changes slightly, and she could see a trace of
displeasure and suspicion in that man.
“What are you thinking about? Which man do you want to be your manager?”
This sounds weird, full of jealousy, and she is planning to pick a man as her manager, but she wants the man to be
Rex Mullen,
her second brother.
Because she always feels that the director Jay has bad intentions to her, so she cannot be more careful on this
matter.
But she is very angry, seeing that Lamont is so jealous out of no reason.
“Mr. He just needs to tell me whether it’s okay or not, and why it’s not allowed. If the reason is reasonable, I will
accept it instead of asking me which man I am. This should have nothing to do with Mr. He.”
“Why doesn’t it matter? In case you pick a man randomly, who may have affairs with you. Isn’t it bad for Prosperity
Global Entertainment?”
Lamont is worried. He was not impatient when Amelie spoke so impolitely just now, but now he is afraid that Amelie
will come here with a man. So now he becomes fussy.
“I disagree. It needs discussion in the future. Now you should concentrate on preparing for your audition, and as for
the manager, we will talk about it later.”
Amelie’s hands were tightly clenched, and creaking sounds could be heard in the office.
“Mr. Byron, you’re so unreasonable. You won’t arrange a manager for me, and won’t you allow me to find a
manager myself?”
“You can find one yourself, but the premise is that the manager must be a woman.”
At this time, she is already unbearably angry, “What’s wrong with the male manager? Isn’t it also beneficial for
Prosperity. Global Entertainment if the affairs break out?”
Hearing these loud words. Lamont slams the table, which really scares her
“Amelie How dare you think about hooking up with other people under my control and even take the work as an
excuse! I will never allow you to do so
Lamont gritted his teeth when he said this, and Ametie was directly stunned by his anger, but she was stubborn and
paranoid It was originally a misunderstanding, but he need be responsible for what he said
“Whoever I hang out with has nothing to do with you. Don’t forget that you are just an ex–husband or the boss to be
What’s
done is done
She doesn’t bother to talk such nonsense with him, so the slams the door and goes out, leaving this sentence.
Lamont is left in a daze for a long time, and the sentence “you are just an ex–husband now, What’s done is done” is
still echoing in his mind.
It seems that he is constantly reminding himself that what Amelie said is not wrong, it is all true.
The audition location in the afternoon is set at the shooting location, and Lamont is also present.
The person from Cayenne is a man named Servi, dressed in overseas haute couture, and his every gesture creates.
aristocratic atmosphere.

He behaves like a gentleman and has sharp eyes, but he looks at Amelie exceptionally in a gentle way
Several times when he has eye contact with Amelie, she feels that even his eyes are smiling to her. Amelie even
thinks she is
delusional.
Of course, Cynthia os full of anger and jealousy, wishing to tear Amelie to pieces on the spot.
But she doesn’t find a chance to vent her anger from the beginning to the end, instead, she makes herself as
embarrassed as a
drowned chicken.
In the first audition, Cayenne directly gives the privilege to Amelie, wanting her to try the role of the heroine
directly.
“It’s not fair!”
Cynthia is the first to stand up and objects to it, “I’m the heroine, at least she won’t get her turn until I finish the
leading
role!”
Her attitude is very firm, because there are too many parts in which the heroine beats the female supporting role in
the
content of the audition.
Rather than saying that she is domineering and jealous of Amelia now, it is better to say that she is guilty now, and
she is afraid that Amelie will avenge her personal revenge.
The slap on her face is still clearly visible, but she has put on several layers of foundation and concealer today to
barely cover it
1. up.
But when she is making expressions, there will be a dull pain from time to time.
This is the imprint engraved on her heart after she failed to have trouble with Amelie.
“I don’t think there is any need for it, Ms. Gladstone, you have already played part of the role of the heroine during
the last audition process, and we already know your acting ability very well.”
Servi’s words are clear enough, and he doesn’t intend to waste everyone’s time, but Cynthia directly exposes her
status to
suppress others.
“Gentleman, the founder of the Cayenne Group deeply respect my aunt. Are you not afraid of going back and losing
the rights in your hand?”
Cynthia’s eyes were full of threats and pride. In her mind, Rebecca dotes on her the most, and she is also very
satisfied with her, the future mistress of the Capet family.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so successful in the entire entertainment industry for so many years, and it all
depended on
Rebecca’s support.
“I’m sorry, Ms. Gladstone, I don’t understand what you’re talking about. The Capet Group is only a subsidiary of the
Cayenne Group, and the lady only has one nephew.”
Cynthia’s face changes from red to purple and then blue, Amelie relieves, not to mention how happy she is. Servi
obviously doesn’t respond to Cynthia actually, and he doesn’t even take Cynthia seriously.
Cynthia is really slapped in the face this time.
“Then Mr. Gladstone, let’s start now, don’t waste everyone’s time, after all, the schedule of this play is still very
tight.”
As soon as Amelie comes on stage, she looks like she is sure of winning. No matter how hideous the person was just
now, she will let her pay back later.
How many times Cynthia has betrayed her, how many times Cynthia has set her up, and how many times Cynthia
has slapped her, Amelie remembers them all clearly.
With a slap on Cynthia’s face which is already deeply traumatized, Amelie almost stayed in the character in a

second, and the jury was instantly silent.
“My lord treat you well for one time and you feel that you are one of the Wei family? As long as I am here for a day,
don’t try to think about becoming the concubine of the Wei family!”
Amelie has a solid foundation in lines and a good demeanor, perfectly showing all aspects of the character, and her
acting skills are simply better than Cynthia’s.
“Amelie, you did it on purpose. This is acting. Do you want to slap me in the face so that I can’t keep on working?”
Not to mention whether Cynthia could pick up the lines, she just dropped the pick and gave up, and asked the jury
to give her
an explanation.
Director Jay on the side is the lowest–ranking one here, and he wants to help but dares not. After all, the power of
the Group with such a high–investment script cannot be underestimated.
It is simply that whoever Cayenne asks to be the director can be the director, and he may lose his job at any time.
“I think Ms. Mullen’s performance is very good, and her personality basically matches that of the Heroine.”
In the end, Jay has no choice but to say such words against his conscience. Looking at Cynthia’s eyes, he feels as if
he is facing
an enemy, he bows his head in shame.
Now everyone is waiting for the person from Cayenne to speak, who is difficult to get along. Cynthia tried hard but
it didn’t work
“I think, aside from her acting skills, Ms. Gladstone’s behavior is very disrespectful and unprofessional. ”
This answer surprises everyone. He doesn’t comment positively on Amelie’s acting skills, but instead he focuses on
Cynthia who refused to act.
Cynthia is immediately annoyed, “Can’t you see that she was doing that on purpose just now? Is she staying herself
into the character? She obviously wants to slap me on purpose through acting!”
Amelie is expressionless, so what if she did it on purpose?
Didn’t she rush to do this in the beginning? She’s just fighting with fire now.
“I’m sorry, Cayenne doesn’t want to interfere with the relationship between you and her, but now we are acting,
and we just need to discuss the facts.”
After finishing speaking, the man set his eyes on Lamont who is sitting beside him without saying a word.
“It’s better to let Mr. Byron make this decision. Mr. Byron thinks who is more suitable to play the heroine. After all,
these are all artists of Prosperity Global Entertainment. You know more about it.”
No one thought that he would hand over the right to Lamont, Amelie couldn’t help frowning slightly, it stands to
reason that he won’t help her this time.
Maybe the more embarrassing she is, the happier he will be, not to mention that they had a fierce quarrel at noon,
so there is no reason for him to side with her right now.
Looking at Cynthia now, as soon as he said that the decision–making power is in Lamont, she immediately begins to
raise her head up, as if she is sure that Lamont will definitely be on her side.
Lamont ponders for a long time before speaking, “Amelie is a newcomer, and indeed there is still a lot of room for
improvement. If she is the heroine, it is really unreasonable for someone with such a high status as Ms. Gladstone
to play a supporting role for her.”
Amelie is disappointed but she knows that Lamont will not be in favor of her, and will definitely act the opposite.
There is a sneer from her mouth, she was even imagining that he would speak for her just now.
Didn’t you still want to help yourself in the office just now?
Just because she wants to find a male manager, he will ruin his career?
Then Lamont is a narrow–minded man.
Amelie curls her lips, and Cynthia, who is beside her, is overjoyed, and loos at Amelie and others.
“It seems that Mr. Byron is the only person present who knows the rules the most.”
Hearing this, before no one responded, but Lamont laughs first.
“I think Ms. Gladstone may have misunderstood, and I haven’t finished my words.”
