The Billionaire Twins Need A New Mommy! novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31: The tea’s gone cold

Once Lola joined the panel, the crew offered the twins special seats beside her as compensation. It wasn’t enough to make up for the incident, but the twins were already very satisfied with that. And if they were happy, that was all Lola needed.

"Just behave, alright?" Lola whispered to them. "Mommy’s going to work."

It took her half a second to catch herself calling herself their mother so naturally. But she couldn’t take it back as they smiled at her so happily.

"Mhm~!" they hummed and nodded, making the staff and even the other members of the casting crew chuckle.

Even when the kids were wearing something odd, with their eyes and mouths painted black, they were just too adorable.

"I didn’t know Taz was a mother," one of the panel members remarked, seated right next to Second. "And they’re adorable at that."

Director Sarian frowned as he leaned in from the other side. "Taz, what else are you hiding from me? I didn’t know you were raising kids. Had I known, I would’ve brought them gifts!"

Lola chuckled, biting her tongue to stop herself from saying she had just gotten them a few days ago.

"I think we should start." She changed the topic. "We’ve already delayed the audition, and I’m really sorry for that."

"Don’t mention it," the other member, sitting next to Director Sarian, waved dismissively. "It’s the crew’s fault that they didn’t brief the security team properly."

"That’s right. Don’t apologize," said the lady with them. "Don’t worry. This won’t happen again throughout the production."

"They won’t get in anyway," she smiled. "Although I’m more interested in those other two," — referring to Melissa’s lackeys.

"Those starlets should know how to act well. Otherwise, I wouldn’t want to see them in any of my projects," Director Sarian huffed.

Thinking of how Lola had just forgiven those women still infuriated him. However, Lola might be eccentric, but she also treated her craft like it was her own child. She truly reminded him of his younger self. After all, Director Sarian was also once mocked and laughed at when he was starting, people telling him he wasn’t good enough or that his ideas wouldn’t sell, or that he was insane just for trying.

Lola smiled at them before Director Sarian gave Ida the go-ahead signal. The actor, who had been interrupted earlier, cleared his throat and tried not to focus on Lola as he resumed his audition.

Meanwhile, in a private suite, men from the NL Group of Companies (the Lancasters) gathered. Derek and Justin sat on the intricate red sofa, and across from them on the other sofa were their cousins, Caullen and Travis.

Others who came to witness this agreement stood on the sidelines.
