Please Take Me Home, Daddy - Chapter 320: Chapter 320

The students laughed out loud upon hearing this.
"She wishes it was a boy!"
"Oh, my God. Laura, you are killing me. You are really good at making things weirder."
Laura was confused. She blinked and asked, "Did I say anything wrong?"
The students looked at each other and laughed even more happily. "No, you didn't."
"Lala, you're always right. Just ignore us."
Rachel stood up excitedly and patted her chest. "Laura, Zayn, please trust me. I will rewrite the script to show the tragedy perfectly from the primary students' perspective."
The other students laughed loudly once more.
Laura was confused and looked at Zayn who looked grim and upset.
Zayn glanced at her and blushed. He seemed to be embarrassed. "Can you play the male lead? I'm afraid that you will hold me back."
Laura was stunned and pouted. "I won't. You might hold me back."
Zayn raised his eyebrows and snorted, "I bet the male protagonist you play will be like a sissy."
Laura frowned and said unhappily, "Nonsense!"
Zayn had been gentle to her for so long that she had forgotten how mean he used to be.
After they came here, he had seldom been mean to her.
Laura made up her mind that she would impress him with her acting.
She snorted.
The next day, Rachel distributed the scripts to everyone. During the break between classes, Laura learned the script by heart. At noon, she needed to go to the public classroom for rehearsal.
Sheryl and Janelle had different jobs.
Sheryl was responsible for the costumes, and Janelle would play Laura's servant.
Laura stood on the stage confidently, murmuring to herself.
"I'm Warner Durham.
"I'm poor.
"I'm good at my studies but a bit of a nerd."
The students beneath the stage were recording her with their phones and shouting, "Lala, smile."
She tilted her head and smiled. She had the air of the character she would play.
The girls exclaimed, "Wow. She is already in the character."
Zayn's class monitor took the microphone and said, "Well, let's begin the rehearsal. Let's rehearse the scene where Warner proposes to Lena at her house, but gets beaten by Lawson and vomits blood."
Jeremy frowned backstage.
This was his least favorite scene.
Zayn gritted his teeth with a sullen face.
The students discussed in a low voice, "Laura is going to vomit blood because of the beating. Will Zayn be angry?"
Someone laughed and said, "That's highly possible."
"It's not surprising for Zayn to lash out."
Zayn sneered at their words.
Did they take him for an idiot? It was just a drama. Why would he lose his temper?
He looked at Laura opposite him.
Holding the script, she was reading the lines. Then she took a deep breath.
The set was ready.
The monitor said, "Action!"
Laura's aura changed instantly. She put one hand in front of her body and strode into the home of the female protagonist.
She looked around and frowned. "Lena is indeed from a wealthy family. I am unsure if my betrothal gifts will be satisfactory."
Janelle said attentively, "Don't worry, Mr. Durham. Miss Davies is in love with you. I think she has already discussed this with her family."
Laura nodded nervously and knocked on the door.
Soon, someone came to open the door and looked her up and down. "Who are you?"
Laura bowed to him and said, I am Warner Durham and I have come here to propose marriage to Ms. Davies."
The servant looked out with disdain and sneered when he saw the betrothal gifts behind Laura. "Is that all you brought as betrothal gifts? Mr. Fields has brought with him 66 chests of betrothal gifts. Miss Davies is going to marry him. You should give up on trying to marry above yourself."
Laura's face changed dramatically and she tried to push the door open as it slammed shut. "She's going to marry Mr. Fields? Lawson Fields?!"
The servant snorted and said proudly, "Yes."
Laura frowned and said, "But Lawson is unethical, and he has been giving us a hard time since our school days. Lena will never want to marry him. Has she accepted the proposal?"
The servant ignored her and slammed the door shut.
Her fingers were almost clamped. She fell to the ground.
A male voice sounded from behind. "Warner, you are still so ridiculous."
Laura turned her head.
Jeremy was wearing a school uniform with sarcasm in his eyes.
In a trance, Laura felt that he was dressed in luxurious clothes and had a powerful aura. Beside him, she looked quite ordinary in her cheap clothes.
The students gasped and said, "Oh my God! Both of them are good."
"I feel sorry for Laura because the male protagonist's life is so sad. And Jeremy's good performance makes the character Lawson more irritating."
Jeremy walked up to Laura and ridiculed her, saying, "Lena will be my wife soon. Give up."
Laura's pupils suddenly shrank and she was even more upset. "You won't be nice to her. You marry her because of her pretty face. I am the one who truly loves her!"
Zayn's heart thumped when he heard this. He frowned and listened more attentively.
The props were set up, and a wall separated him from Laura. He could only hear voices but not see anyone.
Jeremy sneered, "You love her? What of it? Your family is poor, while Lena's is rich. You are not good enough for her."
After saying that, he turned around and said, "Someone!"
He hit his palm with the rolled-up script, and several people lined up behind him. His eyes flashed with joy as he said, "Beat her to death."
The people quickly surrounded Laura and started to beat her up.
The students beneath the stage were worried. "Be gentle!"
"Stop!"
Laura secretly stuffed the fake blood capsule into her mouth and cried out in pain.
Zayn's heart tightened. He looked at the wall and wanted to walk around it.
Seeing this, Taron hugged him from behind and said, "Wait. Zayn, it's not your turn yet! It's fake. She isn't being beaten. It just sounds scary."
Zayn frowned and listened.
He was still worried.
After some time, the crowd dispersed.
Laura lay weak on the ground, blood trickling from her mouth. She whispered, "Lena..."
She murmured weakly, "Lena..."
A trace of pity flashed in Jeremy's eyes. He walked forward and stepped on her hand. "Don't say her name."
Laura pretended to be in pain and gritted her teeth, saying, "She and I are in love with each other. Why do you have to separate us?!"
Jeremy was stunned. He appeared to be moved by her and asked with a frown, "Because I also love her. Is that a problem?"
Zayn was disgusted by his words.
Jeremy pulled back his leg and threatened, "Durham, you will be dead tonight."
Then, he turned around and left.
Laura was lying on the ground, weak, her eyes fixed on the high fake wall.
It was Zayn's turn.
The monitor gave him a look.
Zayn braced himself to walk towards the wall and ask awkwardly, "Warner?"
Laura seemed to lose sight. Her eyes were out of focus and she crawled on the ground when she heard Zayn's voice.
Girls' eyes turned red.
Janelle was deeply moved and exclaimed, "Mr. Durham!"
Laura trembled and crawled to the wall. She struggled to stand up and touched the wall. "Lena, are you there?"
Her voice was shaking as she sobbed, "Lena..." She sounded very sad as if she were about to lose control of her emotions.
Zayn's heart skipped a beat. He said, "I'm here."
He tried to climb over the wall but failed. So, he had no choice but to ask worriedly, "Warner, how are you?"
Laura curled up against the wall and gave a sad smile. "I'm fine."
Seeing her like this, the girls pressed their lips together with tears in their eyes.
"I just... I just miss you too much, and I'm sorry. I was too late."
She leaned against the wall and suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Janelle cried out in horror, "Sir, you are vomiting blood!"
Zayn's face changed dramatically. He knocked down the fake wall, threw it behind him, and rushed to Laura. "You are vomiting blood?" he asked.
Laura, who was absorbed in acting, was speechless.
The moved students beneath the stage were dumbstruck.
Jeremy, who was watching the play beneath the stage, was also shocked.
So was Janelle, who was enchanted by Laura's acting.
Zayn held Laura in his arms and examined her face carefully.
Everyone in the room was shocked.
Lena, who was supposed to be a weak lady, moved the wall away?!
Taron was astounded. "You are not playing the role of a weak lady, but a strong, muscular man!"
