Coco looked at Loke coldly. "I don’t need you to do anything for me. If you’re feeling guilty, I hope that you don’t show up in front of me again. That’s the best thing you could do for me." Loke turned pale. "Do you hate me that much?" "Do you expect me to be happy to see you?" Coco asked sarcastically. "Would I have to go through all these things if it wasn't for you using me to win over that girl you liked? Would my name appear on the trending news if you hadn’t done that?" "I know that I hurt you very deeply back then, but Coco, I hope that you can give me another chance to make it up to you," Loke said sadly. "You don’t have to do that!" Coco refused. "I must make it up to you, because…" Loke paused as his voice trembled. However, Coco didn’t bother talking to Loke anymore. She got up and wanted to leave the room. She would come back later when Tracy was done with Ash. Loke stepped in front of her and stopped her from leaving. "Wait, please listen to me, Coco," he pleaded.
"Yes! Are you satisfied now?" Coco used Lucas as a shield.Loke pursed his lips. "Lucas isn’t the person you think he is. Your relationship with him won’t last long. Don’t make a life-regretting decision just because you’re angry with me, Coco!" "It was never because of you that I got together with him," Coco said expressionlessly. Then, she pushed him away and left the room. Loke looked heartbroken as he wondered if he still had a chance to be with Coco. There was a crowd not far away from Coco, and they were being rather loud. Coco was confused. Someone from the film crew walked up to her and patted her shoulder. "Hey, Coco. Ash is looking for you." "Ash is looking for me?" "Yes, he’s over there!" The crew pointed to the crowd. Coco moved nearer to the crowd and noticed people holding beautifully packaged festive cookies in their hands. She wondered if it was Christmas cookies, but it was still far away from Christmas. When she got closer, she noticed a lot of people were
They had wanted to hurt Coco’s hands because Layla didn’t like Coco’s talent. Coco was lucky that her hands weren't harmed because the campus’s security guards had saved her in time. Later on, she found out the reason Layla had targeted her. After one of Coco’s comics was published, some of the classmates jokingly called her a professional cartoonist. Layla harbored hatred when she heard that because she hadn’t won first place in a comic drawing contest in high school. In Layla’s eyes, it was a sin for Coco to have her comics submitted and published!At this moment, Coco froze in place after hearing Layla’s words. Layla smiled brighter, picked up a box of cookies, and walked over to Coco. "Here, take this. Tell me if it’s good, I’ll send you a few more boxes later." She shoved the box into Coco’s hand. Coco subconsciously raised her hand, wanting to refuse. The box of cookies fell to the ground before her hands could touch the box. Layla put on a sad face. "Coco, you don’t have
Actually Loke didn’t like Layla at all. When he became an exchange student abroad, he left without the slightest bit of attachment to her. "Let’s meet up after I finish handing out the cookies. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other. I have so many things to share," Layla said softly. Loke subconsciously glanced at Coco who was walking away and looked at Layla again. "Sure," he agreed. Layla and Loke went for lunch at a restaurant near Studio City.In the private room, Layla smiled at Loke and said, "How many years have you and I not seen each other? It’s been eight years, right? You didn’t contact me anymore after you went abroad. If it wasn’t for me seeing you in the photos of the filming kickoff ceremony of this TV series, I wouldn't have even known that you were back!" "What do you want by sponsoring this TV series under the name of your company?" Loke stared at her and asked. "Didn’t you invest in the TV series too? What about you? What kind of games are you playi
Layla’s nails dug into her palms as Loke’s words replayed in her mind. She didn’t understand how Loke had fallen in love with a mediocre woman like Coco. He had been in love with her first! Layla wondered why Coco was always getting in the way. Coco had gotten first place when they entered a comic drawing contest together, and she had only gotten second place. If it wasn't first place, then she would rather have nothing. So, she had withdrawn her comic submission and stopped drawing comics altogether.Drawing comics was just Layla’s hobby, she never wanted to be a cartoonist. Later in university, she had met Coco, who was still drawing comics, and her comics were even published.Seeing her classmates praising Coco’s drawings made Layla mad. So, she wanted to ruin Coco’s life. Things were going according to what Layla had anticipated. Everyone despised Coco at school, and she lost interest in bullying Coco after that. She hadn’t expected Coco to become a cartoonist and even get h
However, Coco looked calm. "You really don't have to tell me all this. I already have a boyfriend. If you want Loke, you can have him all for yourself. I don't like him at all."Layla was stunned. "You have a boyfriend?"Coco chuckled. "Ms. Stone, you wouldn't think that after all these years, I would still like Loke, would you?"Layla's expression changed slightly. She intended to humiliate Coco, but now, it felt like she was the one being humiliated.Just then, Loke came over quickly after seeing them together. "Layla, what do you want with Coco? I've already told you, don't mess with her!" Layla smiled slightly. "I was just saying hello to Coco. What are you afraid of? By the way, Coco told me she has a boyfriend now. Your efforts were in vain, Loke."Loke frowned slightly. "I know she has a boyfriend. So what?"A glint of surprise appeared in Layla's eyes. Coco couldn't be bothered with them and left. Loke wanted to say something to Coco, but Layla was there, so he could only w
"Stop it. What you’re saying is meaningless," Loke cut her off and pried Layla’s arms away from his waist. "I don’t love you now, and I will never love you in the future. You should know what to do, Layla." Over the next few days, nothing happened at the film set. Layla wasn’t there either. Coco continued to visit the set two to three times a week, assisting with the script adaptation.On this particular day, Coco arrived while they were filming a scene involving the supporting actress and the male lead. In one scene, the second female lead encountered the debt collectors in a park. Her father was the one who owed the money, but the debt collectors could only go to her because her father had disappeared. She was supposed to meet the male lead in the park, and just as she was about to greet him, the debt collectors found her and dragged her into a secluded area to beat her up. The male lead, thinking she had stood him up, eventually left in disappointment.This scene was a significan
Although the final decision wasn’t hers to make, all Coco could do was stand firm on her decision. There was a sly glint in Jane’s eyes as she suggested, "It seems that the author insists on having the second female lead beaten up in the bushes. I’ll agree to keep the script as it is only if you play the stunt double." Coco was taken aback. "Huh?""Since you’re so adamant about this scene, why don’t you play the stunt double? We’re about the same size, so you should do just fine," Jane said with a malicious smile."I’m not a professional actress. You can find another stunt double with a similar build," Coco refused."But I want you to do it!" Jane insisted.Everyone could see that Jane was targeting Coco.Tracy, who was on friendly terms with Coco, tried to persuade Jane. "Why do you have to make things difficult for Coco? She’s not a professional actress. She’ll easily get injured in this kind of scene. We will have to shoot the scene again with another person if Coco can’t act wel
