Chapter 36
“Yes, that’s right “I took a deep breath, trying to calms maselt down
“By the way, I have a question. I heard Gavin say that Tom admitted yesterday that he’s your lover. What’s going on with that?–
1 instinctively tomed to look at Dawn, who was staring at me with eyes burning with curiosity
Tcouldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time. “Gadis came to myplace yesterday, and coincidentally, Tom had just dropped me off. He helped drive Gavin away”
She bumped my shoulder playfully, her voice filled with mirth. “See? I told you Tom likes you. Only you couldn’t tell.”
“Stop joking” I couldn’t help but stop hee
This kind of joke was not something Toould take lightly
She rolled her eves “Fine, Up to you.”
The next afternoon, I wore a long fitted dress that Dawn had picked out for me to Zephyr Corporation’s interview
Though I hadn’t worked in voice acting for quite a while, my foundation was still there.
The interview went smoothly, but there was a three–month probation period. During this period, the salary was halved, and the full salary and benefits, including social insurance, would only start after the probation ended.
“Grace, your voice quality is amazing. It’s perfect for the lead female role in this period drama, where she dresses as a man.” Luke pushed a document toward me.
I was flattered and surprised that I could be considered for such an important tole right after starting.
“Thank you I’ll do my best.”
But when I saw the document’s details, I froze – Mandy!
The character I was supposed to voice was Mandy
“What’s wrong?” he asked when he saw me staring blankly at the file. “Is there a problem?
“Voice acting doesn’t require interacting with the actor, right?
“Of course not.” He paused, seemingly misunderstanding my question. “Are you a fan of Mandy? I can arrange for you had to meet.”
I quickly shook my head “No, I was just asking ”
Luke smiled. “As voice actors, we work behind the scenes. No one cares whether the actor’s voice is the original or dubbed, the focus is always on the actors themselves.”
“I understand. Thank you.” let out a silent sigh of relief
Though the idea of voicing Mandy bothered me, it was still my first job during my internship, and I decided to treat it like I didn’t know her
Since it was my firur day at work, there were still manythings I wasn’t familiar with, so I staped late. By the time I got home, it was alreach evening
After I freshened up, Jay on my bed and familarbord myself with the voice–acting materials, hoping to record everything in one session at the studio the next day.
But as I was deeply focused, a sudden knock on the door interrupted me, followed by a low, slightly drinken voice, “Grace, open the door. It’s me, Gavin.”
Ifrowned and looked through the peephole. Sure enough, I saw him, swaying and drunk, standing outside my door.
Had he come to cause a scene because he was drunk?
I did not intend to deal with him, so I returned to bed and continued reading the materials.
But he wouldn’t stop knocking, disrupting my concentration
Frustrated, I opened the door and snapped, “Gavin, stop making a scene here. Do you want me to call the police?”
Before I could finish, he suddenly pulled me into his arms, burying his face in my neck. “Grace, please don’t divorce me, okay?”
