"They sure make a good-looking couple.""No, no, I saw them outside earlier. They didn't arrive together. Mr. Hamilton and Bruce were talking first, then Emma got out of the car."Everyone knew that the show was a project by StarCrest Entertainment, so it was not strange for the lead actors to be mingling with Hayden.Seeing Hayden and Emma together did not bother Wyneth. She was fiddling with her glass, staring at the light pink liquid inside. She did not know who had poured the drink. She was not good at handling her drinks and did not want to drink on this occasion. She was eating snacks and looking at the time. In half an hour, she was expecting a call from Yoyo, and then she could leave. A crew member came over while she was thinking."Wyneth, right?"Wyneth looked up."The producer, Mr. Dylan Archer, wants you to meet someone."Taken aback, Wyneth had to take a moment to process. 'Meet someone?'Those at Wyneth's table exchanged awkward glances. After noting her striking
After Dylan finished speaking, he nudged the frozen Wyneth. This caused Wyneth to stagger toward Hayden, who she had been standing next to. Wyneth fell right into Hayden's arms. Bruce, sitting across the table, jumped up from his chair. But Gordon, who was sitting next to Bruce, held him down firmly."Stay calm," Gordon urged.Although Bruce and Gordon were making a scene, all eyes were on Wyneth and Hayden.Hayden was not just famous in the entertainment world. He was also a tough and distant figure. Many actresses wanted to befriend him, but none ever dared because of a past event.There was a new actress who once tried to get close to Hayden while pouring him a drink. After that, she disappeared from the entertainment scene. It was not that she was banned; no one dared to offer her any roles. Her agent quickly ended her contract, implying that she had connected with someone influential and did not need to worry about work anymore. Hayden did not even need to intervene; people kn
"What's your deal? You were supposed to pour Mr. Hamilton a drink, not hang all over him!" Dylan's voice echoed so everyone could hear. "What's with you newbies? Can't you behave? Do you really think Mr. Hamilton is someone you can just be buddies with? Think about who you are!" After saying this, Dylan strolled over to Hayden with a fake smile. "Mr. Hamilton, the new girl doesn't know any better. Sorry for the trouble she caused."Finally pushing past Gordon, Bruce swiftly moved forward. But when he heard Hayden's cool voice say, "She doesn't know any better? Didn't you push her?", he froze, shooting Hayden a narrowed look.Dylan was taken aback by this response. "Um... M-Mr. Hamilton..."Hayden shot him a sharp look. "What? Got something to say?" His icy stare made Dylan feel really scared."M-Mr. Hamilton..." Dylan thought, 'How could I disagree with what he says? Even if I'm ten times braver, I wouldn't dare.'Hayden picked up his drink, smoothly bringing it to his lips. "Say
When Hayden spoke up, everyone thought he really did the right thing. It was Dylan's fault, after all; Wyneth, a supporting actress, did not throw herself at him. It was commendable that he could see the truth and not get mad at the wrong person.Hayden glanced at Bruce, furrowing his brows. 'This guy...'Just as he thought that, Bruce looked at Wyneth, smiling as he quietly asked, "You okay?"Surprised, Wyneth nodded her head. "I'm okay, thanks for your concern.""No need to be so polite." Bruce finished, then gave Dylan a cool look. "Isn't tonight a dinner party? What's all this, Dylan?"Dylan was startled. 'Why is Bruce standing up for this girl? What's going on?' But as someone who had been in this business for a while, he soon figured it out. He felt like crying but could not, and he apologized to Wyneth over and over before saying sorry to everyone for the disruption.Seeing the mood calming down, Kevin stepped in to mediate. After all, they still had a show to shoot; they
Hayden looked at the drink Emma poured. Even though it was not as strong as vodka, the drink was still really strong. Hayden had seen Wyneth drunk two times before. Right now, he really wanted to keep her safe. He did not want anyone else to see her in that state. Just as he was about to say no, he heard another voice."Kevin, you're messing up again." Bruce gave Hayden a lazy smile. "A cool guy like Mr. Hamilton wouldn't make an innocent girl who got tangled up in this situation give him a toast, would he?"Kevin was surprised. 'Why is Bruce always taking this girl's side? What's going on?' He tried to figure it out, but looking at Hayden's serious look, he could not guess what Hayden was thinking.The mood at the table grew tense again. The secondary male and female leads, along with other key crew members, were there. The secondary female lead, Serena, had met Wyneth in the elevator. Because Dylan called Wyneth over, Serena knew something was wrong and watched closely. She did no
Wyneth was momentarily speechless. 'Isn't his assistant the one to take me back to the hotel? Why did he come down himself?' She stood up as Bruce approached her. "Why did you come down?"Bruce glanced at her, his gaze cold. "You had a drink, didn't you? As your brother, I should worry, right? You know you can't handle your drink, so why did you drink? What, you think I can't protect you?"She was caught off guard by his barrage of questions. Wyneth could tell that Bruce was angry. His voice was usually cold, but it was always gentle when he spoke to her. But now, his voice was just hard and mean."I'm here today. What if I wasn't here? What would you have done? Getting drunk, attracting unwanted attention, and then..." He was so angry when he spoke.Bruce's anger surprised Gordon and the assistant, who exchanged uneasy glances and kept quiet. Seeing Bruce this way, all Wyneth could do was reach for the hem of his shirt and gently shake it."I'm sorry." Wyneth lowered her gaze, he
"Uh-huh." Wyneth leaned on the assistant as they walked, then suddenly waved her hands. "I want to sleep now."The assistant could not believe she was the same person, seeing how different she was from her usually cool self. So, she gently said to her, "Ms. Walford, we should head back to the hotel, then you can sleep, alright?""Back to the hotel?" Wyneth said unclearly at this, her voice sounding even more sleepy. "No-no, I need to sleep now."After Wyneth stated her intention, the assistant, taken aback, said quickly, "Ms. Walford, the ground has rats that could bite you."At that, Wyneth, startled, quickly stood up straight, then clung tightly to the assistant's arm. "Rats? Really?"The assistant breathed a sigh of relief. "Really, outside is very dirty. There might not only be rats, but also snakes, cockroaches, and such...""So scary..." Wyneth frowned. "Let's hurry back to the hotel then.""Right, the hotel bed is really soft and smells good, has AC too, and there are no
Bruce, along with his manager and assistant, stopped walking when they got there. He gave a cold laugh. "What is Mr. Hamilton doing?" Bruce looked at Wyneth, and his voice became a bit softer. "Wyn, come here."Ignoring Bruce's words, Wyneth, nestled against Hayden, looked up at him. Her usually bright eyes now seemed misty. In the dim light of the parking lot, she looked exceptionally beautiful. It was clear that she was drunk and not thinking straight. Suddenly, she blurted out, "I know who you are!" Reaching out, she lifted Hayden's chin with her hand and gave him a bright smile. "You're my husband, aren't you?"Hayden, who was holding her, tightened his grip. Bruce's face darkened. Gordon and the assistant nearly buckled, almost falling to their knees right there. They looked at each other in horror, witnessing the unfolding scene. They finally understood why Bruce had not wanted her to drink. She was not just acting crazy because of the alcohol; she was getting into trouble. Bot
