Manager Kang and Simon were in a good mood on their way to the venue where the first reading would happen. They were so sure of what to expect today; they had already heard it from someone in the production.
"Simon—"
"Manager Kang, can you please not talk to me?" Simon stopped him before he could even say a word. "I'll try to focus first and internalize."
"Ah, right, right," Manager Kang laughed. "Of course. Don't worry about me, Simon. Just try to focus, okay?"
Simon nodded and then closed his eyes, clearing his thoughts from everything, and started internalizing. No, he wasn't thinking about the role given to him. Rather, he was internalizing Ryker's role. If Cedrick were getting fired today, he needed to sweep the role fast.
Melissa and Manager Kang had already opened this opportunity for him, and he wouldn't disappoint them in seizing it.
