LOVE IN PARIS: Married To My Brother-in-law

Chapter 12: Lin Chuxia



"Let me drive you over". Zeke who was standing nearby and heared the whole conversation suggested and Yvette immediately agreed.

It was already rush hour and apparently there was a traffic jam, although Zeke had rushed over by the time she reached the building hosting the audition, she was already late.

Nadia and her manager, Mary walked out of the building excitedly , surrounded by people congratulating them. She had apparently gotten the role of the main female lead character she was there to audition for.

From the distance, Nadia had sighted her drenched in sweat as she came running as looked at her as though she was looking at a ant.

Yvette watched as Nadia got into the company's van and immediately left, she continued running into the building dabbing at her face with a kerchief.

About halfway into the building, she ran into six group of people who were chatting happily and she immediately recognized them. They were the casting judges for the drama.

"I'm sorry I'm late". She bowed apologetically.

The assistant director grimaced. "The audition is already over, what's the point even if you rush over now?".

"I'm really sorry". She apologized once again heads bowed. "Besides I'm not here to audition for the role if the female lead".

"If you're not here to audition for the role of the female lead then what did you come here to audition for?". The screenwriter asked curiously, accessing her.

"I'm here to audition for the role of the second female lead. Lin Chuxia". She replied and raised her head. "From what I've heard, you still haven't found someone suitable and was planning to organize another audition for the selection".

She added,she had indeed heared some actresses complaining about not getting the role of the second female lead on her way into the building.

Immediately she lifted her head, there was a moment of still silence and the unpleasant expression disappeared instantly.

They could only notice the lady before them, her cherry blossom like lips and white pearly teeths, her eyes that were like lake that ripples slightly as she smiled, her sandy blonde hair that was left loose, falling down to her waist. They could make one drool with desire.

She was donning a magenta tight fitting dress,one of the most hard color to pull off. However it did not look tacky on her but instead complimented her petite and stunning frame as she exudes a mature and seductive yet innocent aura.

In this industry where plastic surgery had become a custom, it was indeed rare to see a young actress who was naturally breathtaking and had an ethereal appearance.

"What's your name , young lady?". It wasn't until the screenwriter, Mr Dave asked that all judges came back to their senses.

"Yvette Jasmin".

The director shared glances with his assistant, tge producer and even the screenwriter before saying. "Go back and prepare. The role is your's. When we start filming in few days, we'll contact you".

"Thanks Director Cole. I will work hard to prepare ". She bowed excitedly, barely containing her excitement as she left.

"We tried hard to find the perfect actress for the role but she found us instead. I never thought she could effortlessly take on Lin Chuxia role , who knows she would bring the character alive in just one glance". Director Cole couldn't help exclaiming immediately after she left.

Mr Dave nodded in admiration. "Her temperament and looks are the most stunning qualities, she brought my Lin Chuxia alive instantly. Lin Chuxia was a disastrous beauty before marrying the general and she. . she could even look seductive without being vulgar and still maintain sense of purity".

"Exactly, in the previous auditions all other actress kept acting as if they were playing the role if a prostitute but she fully captured the essence".

Overjoyed, Yvette ran back to Zeke's car which was waiting for her nearby in a less conspicuous area, practically leaping into his arms as soon as she got in.

"I got the role". She cried, overwrought with joy.

Zeke laughed, holding her close. "I knew you would. Congratulations Wifey". He kissed her forehead and she wiggled her invisible tail happily.

"Let's have dinner outside tonight and celebrate your success". He suggested and she couldn't agree more.

Soon,the car glided to a stop before an opulent entrance of an exclusive restaurant. The establishment, usually bustling with patrons was eerily quiet tonight, courtesy of Zeke's meticulous planning.

The restaurant bathed in soft candlelight exuded it usual sophistication with crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceilings, their soft glow reflecting on the polished marble floor and gold trimmings furniture, the air filled with the delicate strains of a pianist playing a classic romantic melody in the corner.

He led her to the table set for two with the stunning view of the city's skyline .

"Wow. This is awesome". Yvette exclaimed, her voice filled with awe as she glanced around the deserted restaurant save for the two of them .

Her breath caught in her throat as she asked in disbelief. "You rented the entire restaurant?".

Zeke merely smiled, guiding her to the table in the center. "Only the best for you". He answered, pulling out a chair for her.

As they settled in their seat,the waitress already with a warm smile presenting the evening menu, a selection of the finest delicases, each more exquisite than the last.

She could hardly focus on the exquisite dishes, her gaze fixed on the man before her. "When did you arrange all this?" . She asked, genuinely curious on how he'd managed such an elaborate evening in such a limited time.

"Some minutes ago". He answered, flashing Hera teasing smile as he leaned back on his seat casually swirling his glass .

"Some minutes ago". She blinked in surprise, shaking her head amusedly. "Having money really is everything". She teased but the sincerity of her gratitude was unmistakable.

Under such rushed circumstances, he still managed to prepare so much for her.

"Is Mrs Lorenzo complaining about having money, such an eye opener". He teased a d she giggled.

The duo dined slowly, relishing each other company, the pianist music filled the dim lightning and the privacy of the moment created an intimate atmosphere.

After the last dishes, he took her hands his eyes twinkling. "Let's sleep outside tonight" he suggested.

Yvette gave him a puzzled look but agreed, they left the restaurant and after a soft drive arrived at a luxury hotel.

"Thanks for today". She whispered into his chest as he embraced her as soon as they lay in the bed.

"Anything for you, my wife". He chuckled softly, pressing a kiss into her hair , his voice filled with quiet contentment.
