Book Transmigration: I Wanted to Keep a Low Profile, but Everyone Noticed Me!-Chapter 14
Chapter 14
This time, Audrey wasn’t the only newcomer in the company. Although they were newcomers, each of them was provided with an assistant.
Audrey felt even more appreciative of the treatment after learning this.
In her previous agency, when she first joined, a single assistant would handle multiple artists, leaving them to fend for themselves.
These assistants were initially chosen by the artists themselves. However, due to her hospitalization from the car accident, Audrey arrived at the company last and had no say in selecting her assistant.
Daniel led Audrey to an office room with the door opened.
As Audrey approached the door, she saw a young woman inside, probably in her early twenties. She was slightly petite compared to the average person, but she looked very energetic.
The young woman also noticed Audrey and quickly walked over, extending her hand with a smile.
“Hello, I’m Anna. You must be Audrey, right? You’re really beautiful.”
Anna’s eyes looked innocent, and she spoke while maintaining direct eye contact, exuding a sense of sincerity.
Audrey fell in love with this young lady almost at a glance.
“Thank you, you’re beautiful too.” She smiled and extended her hand to shake Anna’s.
As they shook hands, Audrey was slightly surprised. Anna’s palm wasn’t as smooth as most girls’. It felt somewhat rough, as if there was a thin layer of callus.
Daniel stood to the side, observing both of their satisfied expressions. He said, “Why don’t you get to know each other? I’ll take my leave now.”
Audrey and Anna bid farewell to him.
As Daniel reached the door, he suddenly turned back. “Audrey, don’t forget to manage your physique. You’re about to start shooting. Anna, as her assistant, you have to supervise her at all times.” her
Audrey and Anna nodded in unison.
After Daniel left, the two exchanged a knowing glance and couldn’t help but smile.
Thinking of the callus on Anna’s hand, Audrey carefully chose her words before asking, “Anna, how did you decide to become a celebrity assistant?”
Anna didn’t catch her deeper meaning and replied, “On one hand, I really like this job. On the other hand, if I don’t get a job, I’d have to inherit my family’s martial arts school, and I don’t want to.”
As she spoke of not wanting to inherit the martial arts school, fear was evident on her face.
Audrey vaguely understood. She had assumed Anna’s family background was not good, which might explain the callus on her hand.
However, if her family owns a martial arts school, it meant that she doesn’t have a poor family background.
“So, you’re skilled in martial arts?” Audrey looked at Anna with astonishment.
Anna felt a bit embarrassed and whispered, “I know some basic punches and kicks, but I can still protect you.”
Audrey vigorously nodded. She had acted in historical dramas before, albeit not in significant roles. However, she had played a martial arts character.
This particular role was the most challenging for her because she lacked any martial arts or even dance background. A character skilled in martial arts not only needed to fight but also make the moves look visually appealing for better on-screen impact.
So, Audrey held a great admiration for people skilled in martial arts.
They chatted for a while and exchanged contact information.
Since there wasn’t any work right after signing the contract, Audrey suggested that Anna could go back to her previous residence for now. They could connect again when it was time to start the actual work.
With nothing to do at the company, Audrey and Anna decided to have a meal together.
As they left, the elevator was quite crowded. Among the people, Audrey recognized a few faces from online platforms, while others were entirely unfamiliar.
These were probably fellow newcomers who had recently signed contracts, just like Audrey.
However, one person stood out in particular.
He stood in a corner of the elevator, accompanied by a tall man who seemed to create a barrier between him and the rest of the crowd.
Almost everyone in the elevator was stealing glances at him.
Audrey also glanced at him, but she quickly averted her gaze.
She knew who he was – Fred, the original novel’s male lead. Regardless of whether it was the male lead or the female lead, she didn’t want to have any interactions with them. They had the protagonist’s aura around them, and she didn’t want to get involved and end up as cannon fodder.
After leaving the elevator, Audrey pulled Anna away.
Anna turned back to look in the direction of the person who had stood apart from them, then faced Audrey and said, “That was Fred, right? He looks even better in person than on camera.”
Audrey looked at her skeptically. “You’re not a fan of his, are you?”
Anna shook her head. “No, I just like handsome guys in general.”
Audrey gave her an appreciative look and lowered her voice. “I like them too, it’s refreshing to the eyes.”
Speaking of handsome guys, Audrey considered herself lucky. The two men in her family were both exceptionally good-looking, especially her eldest brother, who was handsome and charismatic.
She wondered what kind of woman would be fortunate enough to become her sister-in-law.
