The final act was recorded on the city rampart. Princess Rivera indicted Benjamin of treachery, terminated their relationship, and jumped off the tower to sacrifice her life for her nation.

Quintessa had already scrutinized everything, and Jane had filmed this type of scene earlier, so she was not anxious.

The princess was garbed in red, with ebony hair cascading down her frame like a waterfall, on the city rampart.

Below the city tower, legions of soldiers waited for an opportunity to attack, led by Benjamin in his war attire.

Benjamin persuaded Princess Rivera, who was guarding the city, to surrender, but the princess vowed not to give in.

Aware that the situation was hopeless, the princess scaled the tower and inquired, "Benjamin, did you ever love me?"

Benjamin hastily replied, "I love you, Rivera, come down, don't do anything foolish."

The princess suddenly smiled, "You love me, but love your homeland more. Just like I love you, but love my royal honor more."

    Jane pursed her lips and spoke softly, "My legs are feeling weak at the moment, but if I rest for a bit, I'll be fine."She gazed into his eyes and added, "Why don't you head to the hospital? I want to finish filming and return to the city."Damien held her in his arms, observing her delicate and gentle voice, her lips moving as she spoke, and a pleading expression in her clear eyes.Was she trying to act spoiled towards him?Just then, Gwen Dominic, Kurt Marshall, and others rushed over."Jane, are you okay?"Upon seeing the others, Jane immediately pushed Damien away.She turned to Kurt and reassured him, "Director, I'm fine."Kurt examined her and nodded, "You seem okay, but let's take a break today."Jane refused, "No, let's just finish filming the rest."She didn't want to delay the crew's progress and also wanted to return to New York to see Jonathan as soon as possible.Kurt gave in to her insistence, "Alright, take a 3-10 minute break and then we'll reshoot.""Thank you, Direc

    Jane's facial expression shifted slightly, causing her to pause in her tracks. However, upon turning her head, she caught sight of Matt striding away.Was someone plotting against her? If she had a strained relationship with any crew member, it would be him. But there was also an outsider involved...although their reach wasn't that far.In the dressing room, Olivia let out a sigh as she helped Jane remove her makeup. "Thank goodness you're safe and sound."Jane smiled in agreement. "I was quite scared too.""You seem to be taking it all in stride, but you still have to keep filming." Olivia chided.Jane smiled wryly. "The entertainment industry is full of risks. I've encountered similar situations before when I was a substitute.""All the same, you must remain cautious." Olivia warned. "It's much darker than you think."Jane was surprised by her words. "Olivia, do you think someone wants to harm me?""I don't believe so, but it's possible. And because it's possible, we must be on guar

    Jane promptly made a phone call to the hospital ward.In no time, there was a response."Jane, are you alright?" Jonathan's frantic voice sounded.Jane breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing his voice and replied with a grin: "What's up?""I have watched all the videos on the internet. I was frightened to death. You didn't answer my calls earlier. I..." Jonathan got emotional.Jane quickly reassured him: "I am fine, don't panic. I was on the plane and my phone was switched off. I will come to the hospital to meet you later.""Alright Jane, I will wait for you." He sniffled."Okay." Jane hung up the phone, with anxiety in her heart.She was afraid that Jonathan might not be able to manage his feelings, which might impact his health.Beside her, Seth questioned, "Do you share a close bond with your brother?""Yes.""However, to my knowledge, you are not biologically related." Seth mentioned.Jane looked at him, scrunched her eyebrows, and asked: "Is biological connection crucial?"Seth

    Jane's heart raced when she met Jonathan's gaze filled with self-reproach.It appears that the fire is still raging beyond the paper's limits.Jonathan's heart is delicate and susceptible, possibly due to a weak constitution since childhood. After their parents' passing, the siblings relied on one another for survival."I shouldn't have hidden it from you. I didn't want you to worry," Jane sighed."But if something happens to you, what am I supposed to do?" Jonathan retorted.He shut his eyes and suddenly became choked up. "Jane, you don't owe me anything. Even if you did, you've already paid it back. Now I owe you!"Sometimes, he despises himself for not dying and dragging her down with him."What nonsense!" Jane's expression darkened, and she scolded, "We're family. No one owes anyone anything. If you say that again, you're denying our siblinghood."Jonathan sniffled, refusing to turn his head or speak.Observing his stubborn demeanor, Jane grinned. "So, you really don't plan on ackn

    Jane acknowledged his concern and set the poster aside.She smiled and said, "I don't impose myself. I enjoy acting. This time, I even acted with Oliver."Jonathan hesitated, "Are you really not painting anymore?"Jane glanced at her hand and shook her head. "You know I can't hold a pen.""Jane, the doctor said...""Let's not talk about it," Jane interrupted, looking at him with pity. "I don't have any fans now. It's so pitiful."Jonathan laughed and said, "Then I'll be your first fan, sis!""Deal!" Jane extended her pinky finger.Jonathan also reached out his hand and hooked his pinky finger with hers, sealing the deal.Afterwards, the siblings sat on the bed admiring the poster of their idol.Jonathan asked, "How's Oliver doing?""He's very easygoing, caring, and has great acting skills.""I wish I could meet him," Jonathan said, looking forward to it.Jane looked at him with a strange expression. "Other boys like fair-skinned, beautiful female stars, but you like men. I have some d

    Right at that moment, her mobile phone rang once again, but it was from an unknown number.As soon as she answered, Duke's voice greeted her."Madam, I'm downstairs. Do you want me to bring it up for you?"Jane quickly declined, "No, I'll come down and get it myself."After hanging up, she descended the stairs.Duke handed her two plastic bags, to which Jane expressed her gratitude."Madam, my pleasure. I'll wait for you downstairs. Just give me a call when you're leaving," Duke said courteously."I'm sorry for the trouble," Jane nodded, turned around, and headed towards the gate.Suddenly, a male voice called out, "Jane!"She turned to see Peter Tuchel approaching her, and exclaimed, "Peter!"Peter came closer and greeted her with a smile, "I thought I was mistaken. It's really you. When did you arrive?""I came here this afternoon.""What's in those bags?" Peter inquired, pointing to the two plastic bags in Jane's hands."Oh, it's dinner," Jane responded.Peter nodded and looked tow

    Jane bid farewell to Peter as he left.She escorted him to the elevator where he suddenly brought up the negative comments she received online. He expressed his concern, saying that the entertainment industry can be very complicated.Jane was puzzled and didn't understand what he meant.Peter hesitated before suggesting, "Maybe you should consider finding another profession."Jane smiled, knowing that this wasn't the first time he had suggested this.However, her response was different this time."Thank you for your concern. I love being an actor and those rumors are false. I have nothing to fear."Peter saw her calm demeanor, hesitated for a moment, and said nothing more.The elevator arrived, and the two said their goodbyes.When Jane returned to the ward, she saw Jonathan teasingly looking at her.She felt speechless and said, "It's time to eat."Jonathan got out of bed and sat on the sofa.While Jane was preparing the food, he asked, "Jane, have you ever thought about Peter?"Jane

    Damien appeared quite intoxicated and was leaning on Seth for support.Upon witnessing this, Jane rushed over to them.She gazed at Damien and inquired, "Why did he consume so much alcohol?""He was probably upset," replied Seth.Jane was bewildered for a moment- upset? Wasn't he doing well during the day? Suddenly, she recollected what he said on the phone.Struggling to hold him up, Seth requested, "Come on, help me quickly.""Sure." Jane regained her composure and assisted Damien.In an instant, the faint scent of liquor wafted into her nostrils.She wrinkled her nose and walked towards the house with Seth supporting him.Fortunately, Seth bore most of the weight, so Jane did not feel too strained.The door to the master bedroom was ajar, and Jane fumbled for a while before switching on the light.Seth helped Damien to bed and laid him down.Wiping his perspiration and taking a deep breath, Seth said, "I'll take my leave now. Please take care of him."Jane responded, "No problem. L

    After exiting the lift, Jane suddenly inquired, "Mr. Sala, who was that lady that welcomed you at the elevator entrance just now? She seems familiar!"Sala gazed at her intently, his eyes filled with confusion.Director Hisham followed closely behind and stated, "That's Manager Archana from the Design Department. She is a young and talented individual. She won the International Jewelry Design Award at the age of 21. Do you know her?"Jane smiled faintly, "She was my senior.""You're also an art major?" Director Hisham was slightly taken aback.Jane nodded, "Yes, but I dropped out of school.""That's a shame, otherwise we could have been colleagues." Director Hisham chuckled.Jane simply smiled and said nothing. At that time, she had a preference for oil painting, but she could also draw animes.Of course, she had tried her hand at jewelry design as well, since there was a design award with a substantial cash prize.Unfortunately, the design drawings she had created vanished, and when

    Paparazzi? Jane's expression changed slightly, she instinctively glanced around."Don't look, they're behind me." Anderson took off his coat and covered Jane's head, "Come with me."He grabbed Jane's wrist, and the two walked directly to the parking area.After entering the car, Anderson said, "I need to shake off the celebrity photographers first, so I can take you back to the hospital later.""It's alright." Jane's eyebrows furrowed slightly, she looked at Anderson, "Did they capture us just now?""They probably did, don't worry, I'll handle it." Anderson said reassuringly.Jane sensed that it wouldn't be as simple as he claimed. If the two of them were caught on camera together, the headlines would undoubtedly be unavoidable tomorrow.Although Anderson had only been in the industry for a few years, he had a significant following and a large fan base, especially among female fans.Anderson had a few rumored girlfriends in the past, and many of his fans didn't accept them.

    As per the schedule, Jane visited the recording studio the next morning.Anderson and Piper arrived early, causing Jane to feel a little embarrassed.After exchanging pleasantries, Jane began practicing singing, choosing a song from Piper's collection.While she sang, Anderson worked on the arrangement, while Piper listened carefully, pointing out any flaws in Jane's performance.After a morning of training, the trio enjoyed lunch together and continued practicing in the afternoon.At around five o'clock, Piper called a halt to the session, cautioning Jane that over-practicing could be detrimental to her voice.Jane agreed, suggesting they go out for dinner, with her offering to treat them.Anderson objected, wary of her spending too much, but Jane reassured him that she had recently secured an endorsement deal.To ensure privacy, they dined at a restaurant owned by Anderson's friend, with Jane focusing the conversation on Anderson and Piper's recent work.Noticing Anderson's hectic s

    Piper asked again, "Is he the guy you mentioned that you have feelings for?"Jane replied without hesitation, "No.""Don't lie to me, if someone is so into me, I'll definitely fall for him too." Piper didn't believe her.Jane went silent and said, "What if the person is a middle-aged man in his 50s with acne scars all over his face, would you still love him?"Piper was at a loss for words.After a while, she reluctantly said, "But he's tall and has a good physique.""That's just his back, you haven't seen his face." Jane said seriously.To convince Piper, she had to feel sorry for Damien."Fine, but don't hate on netizens, or they'll accuse you of being ungrateful." Piper warned."Don't worry, I won't." Jane assured her."I've made up my mind, I'll teach you how to sing starting tomorrow, and Anderson is also here, we'll meet at the usual place." Piper said."Okay."Jane hung up the phone and let out a sigh of relief. She had managed to deceive Piper, or else she would have pried furt

    In the morning, Jane sat in the hospital poring over the two scripts Seth had given her.At noon, Duke called her and once again delivered her meal.Taking the bag from Duke, Jane asked out of habit, "Have Damien eaten?"Realizing her mistake, she forced a smile and thanked him.As she walked towards the gate with the bag, Duke reported to his boss, "I suspect the Madam may call to inquire about your lunch later."Jane knew she couldn't call Damien, as she didn't want to reveal her feelings for him.She couldn't even pinpoint when she had developed feelings for him - was it when he had rushed to her side after she fell on set, or when he had defended her from criticism in the parking lot?Or was it simply because he was handsome and wealthy, like many women were attracted to?She didn't know."Jane, the mushrooms fell on the table," Jonathan interrupted her thoughts with a frown.Jane quickly cleaned up the mess, but Jonathan could tell something was bothering her.Although she denied

    Shortly after arriving at the medical center, Seth called Jane with some good news."I have some great news for you. IOC has agreed to endorse you."Jane was taken aback for a moment, then passed the peeled apple to Jonathan, and wiped her hands with a piece of paper."Okay.""I'll come to pick you up the day after tomorrow to sign the contract.""Sure!" Jane replied."By the way, I have already uncovered the Ciara fan responsible for throwing concentrated sulfuric acid on you."Jane was a little surprised and asked, "So, am I trending again?""Without a doubt!""Okay."

    Jane was preoccupied, unable to sleep properly at night, and had a dream during the latter half of the night.In the dream, she clung to a man's body, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him passionately.In a daze, she opened her eyes and saw the man's face clearly. Her expression changed dramatically, and she pushed him away abruptly.Jane suddenly woke up in bed, rubbed her head, and recollected the dream with an irritated expression on her face.What was going on?

    Jane emerged from the shower and lay on the bed, suddenly recollecting how Seth had asked her to prepare a song.After pondering over it, she contacted Piper.Piper's lively voice answered the phone, "Hey girl.""It's quite late, I hope I didn't disturb you and your partner.""No, not at all. Tell me, what can I do for you?""I have progressed in the "Voice of Dreams" program, and I want to select one of your songs."The only songs she felt comfortable singing were those by Piper and Anderson."That's not a problem. We can discuss it when you perform.
