The show was halfway through recording when the director's voice suddenly came through: "Cut! Thanks for your hard work everyone, time for a break."
The director approached with a cheery grin, eyes squinted into narrow slits.
"Miss Thompson performs quite naturally in front of the camera, it's rare to see a judge with such ease."
Charlotte chuckled, "I still have to thank the director and the producer for providing me with this platform."
What's the big deal? Isn't she just a judge? What's unnatural about that?
Attractive, cooperative, and eloquent, Charlotte was a favorite with the director who continued to chat with her about this and that.
Charlotte exchanged a few pleasantries with the director before heading to her exclusive break room.
She was still troubled by Evelyn Curtis' issue, her heart subtly trembling.
As Charlotte was resting on the couch, eyes half-closed, someone knocked on the door.
