“Let’s go upstairs.”
Nina didn’t take it seriously and thought that girl had come here for an audition like her. She felt the girl must have empathized too much to stop crying.
“Ehn.”
Robin also wanted to check what was upstairs.
Then they saw a huge sign at the door, “Evangeline Media”.
The company name seemed to be significant. After entering the lobby, they could tell the environment was nice and tidy. A receptionist greeted them, “Good day. Are you here for the audition, miss?”
“Yes.”
Nina nodded at her.
“Please follow me.”
The receptionist led Nina into a medical room. A male doctor with a white gown was waiting. The receptionist explained, “You need a health check first.”
“A health check?”
Nina was surprised.
“Yes. It’s our rule.”
The receptionist reminded Robin, “I’m sorry, Mister. She needs a health check now. Could you please wait for her outside?”
“Why should I wait outside?”
Robin darted at her.
“Some checks are private,” the doctor explained.
“Private?”
Shrewdness flashed through Robin’s eyes.
“Yes. Please trust me. I’m a professional doctor with a Ph. D. from Brentwood Medical School. I’m in charge of the candidates’ health check,” the doctor answered.
He was a plain-looking man in his forties, looking slightly aged.
“Mister, please trust our doctor. A girl’s body is like a skeleton to him. There’s no problem. Please follow me to wait outside,” the receptionist politely reminded Robin.
“I refuse.”
Robin shook his head.
“This is an important phase of the audition. She must go through the health check before going to the next phase. Besides, we won’t charge her any money for the health check. Why can’t you understand?”
The doctor looked at Robin unhappily.
If this went on, he wouldn’t be able to take advantage of the girl.
In fact, he wasn’t a doctor but an ordinary man living nearby. Somebody had taught him how to do health checks and how to take advantage of those girls.
In this room, a lot of cameras were installed. After the health check process was filmed, the video clips would be sold in the market. The “doctor” lived on the commission.
He could take advantage of the women and get paid, so this was his dream job.
Women entering this room before all wished to become famous. They went through the health check without any hesitation. After all, it was normal for a male doctor to do a health check.
However, the current candidate and the man accompanying her were too much of a hassle.
The man even refused.
“Well, a health check report is requested for the audition, right?” Nina asked in a weak tone.
“Of course.”
The doctor nodded. Although looking solemn, he got excited already. He knew this girl wouldn’t refuse a chance to become famous.
Therefore, they would be willing to sacrifice.
Besides, the health check was for the girl instead of the man. If Nina insisted, things would go smoothly.
Honestly speaking, after working for such a long time, the “doctor” had checked almost a hundred women. Nina was the most beautiful one among them all.
She had long legs, a sharp chin, smart eyes, and a slender waist. Her ponytail made her look just so innocent.
The doctor almost drooled, wishing to blanket her and have wild sex with her. He believed his wish would come true as soon as Nina agreed.
“Here you go. This is my health check report. I went it through in a hospital yesterday.”
Much to their surprise, Nina pulled out a health check report from her bag and passed it to the doctor.
“Uh…”
The doctor was taken aback and almost went crazy. He didn’t expect Nina to take with her a health check report.
“Some of the items should be missed,” he made a lame excuse as he didn’t want to miss such a good chance.
“Missed? Please take a look. Our university told us to do it yesterday. We went through all items available in the hospitals. There are more than 30 sub-items under each one. Please take a look.”
Nina pointed at the report.
The doctor didn’t know how to read it as he wasn’t a real doctor at all. Therefore, he could not find anything to say to Nina. Frowning, he passed the report back to her. “All right.”
He couldn’t do anything.
“Mister and miss, please follow me.”
The receptionist was about to take them to the next room.
“Why did you take the health check report with you?” Robin asked while walking in the corridor.
“Our university organized a health check yesterday. It took a whole day. I was supposed to put the report in my dorm but I forgot.”
Nina scratched her head.
She forgot to put the report in her dorm, but it just came in handy in her audition today.
After all, the job description for this audition didn’t mention a health check.
Soon, they entered a room. Nina walked towards the interviewers, who were all mid-aged men.
“Good day, misters. I’m Nina Houry.”
Nina bowed at them and sat down.
Instead of leaving, Robin stood in the corner while watching them.
The receptionist also entered and whispered to the interviewers in the middle before leaving.
She didn’t ask Robin to leave.
“Miss Houry, let me introduce myself. I’m the chief interviewer today, Diego Woods. Since you are into acting, you should know my name.”
The interviewer in the middle was 35 or so.
“Yes, Mr. Woods. I’ve heard a lot about you. You filmed many excellent movies, and some of them won international prizes. We studied your CV in our classes before,” Nina answered excitedly.
She was a performing art student, so she had heard about many famous directors. Much to her surprise, she encountered such a bigwig in a remote place.
“Good.”
Diego nodded solemnly, looking quite like a real deal. In fact, he wasn’t Diego Woods but only looked like that famous director.
His original name was Kyle Rees.
Seeing Nina fall into his trap, Kyle was overjoyed. He pretended to be Diego, which helped him gain trust.
After all, Diego was too famous.
Kyle knocked on the table and added seriously, “Miss Houry, since you came here for an audition, let me ask you a question. Are you willing to sacrifice for art?”
