"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

The Birch family was one of the most prestigious families in Solaria."Coco is the one who won’t leave Jane alone," Rowan said, hinting at something more.The assistant looked at Rowan puzzledly. "Huh? Coco is just a cartoonist with no apparent background."Rowan flicked his assistant's forehead lightly. "Do you think I gave up a big production to star in this comic adaptation for no reason?" "Wasn't it because the CEO's secretary requested you to take this role?" The assistant’s eyes widened in surprise. "Does this have something to do with Coco?""We'll find out soon," Rowan said with a knowing smile.On the third day of the filming, Coco stayed in her studio to work on her new project. Suddenly, her phone rang. Stella’s anxious voice could be heard as soon as Coco answered the call. "Coco, come to the set immediately." Coco was startled. "What’s wrong?""Several actors are on strike," Stella replied.Coco was stunned, and a wave of unease washed over her. Stella wouldn't call h

Minnie was stunned. She knew that if this issue was posted online, it would only embarrass Coco further. The public wouldn’t be bothered to learn the truth. They would only see what was posted online. Coco entered the meeting room, and all eyes turned toward her."The innocent have nothing to fear. Go ahead and post this incident online if Ms. Harris wants the public to judge it. When the actors go on strike, the ones who suffer are the crew and the investors of this show. Future productions that want to hire you guys will have to think twice. What if you guys suddenly go on a strike again because you don’t like someone from the crew? Who will bear the losses then?" Coco spoke out boldly, addressing all the actors, especially Jane. Casting directors dread actors who cause trouble. Jane’s reputation in the entertainment industry would take a toll if this incident became widely known"Alright, Coco, just apologize to them, and we'll call it a day," Ash said.Minnie quickly defended he

Jane hugged Coco as if they had reconciled, but she whispered in Coco’s ear, "See, you have to do what I want. At the end of the day, you’re just a piece of trash." After saying that, Jane stepped back and looked at Coco with a smile. "I'll be looking forward to your performance!"The strike ended after Coco agreed to play the stunt double.Minnie hurriedly pulled Coco aside and asked, "Are you really going to be Jane’s stunt double?""Yes." Coco nodded."But you’re going to get beaten…""It's just a performance, after all. Besides, the staff will set up protective measures," Coco reassured her. "You apologized and agreed to be the stunt double because you didn’t want to get me into trouble, right?" Minnie finally understood Coco’s actions."I'm just afraid that if things blow up, we would have to compensate a huge amount to the crew. It has nothing to do with you!" Coco said nonchalantly.Minnie's eyes were reddish. "Coco, I'm sorry. I thought that having your comic selected for an

Jane frowned at Loke, who was walking toward Coco. She knew that they were schoolmates, and Loke was also one of the investors in this adaptation.Loke ran up to Coco and persuaded her, "Don't act in this scene. I'll talk to Ash." At the company today, he heard that Coco was being forced to play a stunt double in a scene involving a brutal beating, so he rushed over to the film set."Your words won’t help," Coco said. "How will you know unless I try?""Because the situation is beyond our control," Coco said. "Jane was the one who forced me to do it. Ash and Stella could only agree because they don’t want to offend Jane." Or rather, they didn't dare to offend whoever was behind Jane. Coco didn’t know who was behind Jane. She only knew that Jane had a powerful man supporting her, which was why she got such good roles. This TV series was just a stepping stone for her next major role. After pondering momentarily, Loke asked Coco to wait for him before leaving to meet Ash. However, s

Coco knew at once that Jane had set her up to humiliate her.Just then, she felt that the extras were ripping her costume. She couldn’t let this go on. Coco mustered up all her strength and kicked one of the extras in the groin.The man let go while howling in pain. Coco seized the opportunity to escape. Just as she got up and took a few steps, someone grabbed her hair and yanked her back.Coco felt like her scalp was being ripped off! She felt an excruciating pain. From the corners of her eye, she saw Loke standing just a few steps away from Ash!He had said that he would talk to Ash and stop her from doing this scene, but he was there watching the whole time. Coco fell to the ground, and the extras began to kick her hard as if they intended to break every bone in her body."Enough! Stop it! They're really kicking Coco, they’re not acting!" Minnie, who was standing a little further away, realized something was wrong and tried to rush forward to help her friend.Alas, she was stop

Coco was on the verge of fainting when she heard some shouting."Hey! Who are you guys?! The cameras are rolling. Please leave… What are you doing?!"The people who had been beating her and tearing off her clothes were gone, replaced by their groans.At that moment, someone lifted her up and gently said, "Ms. Souza, sorry for being late. I’ll take you to the hospital right away."Coco managed to open her eyes and saw a woman in her thirties. She looked smart and capable. "Who… are you?" Coco asked with difficulty."I'm—"Before the woman could introduce herself, Jane rushed over with her assistant, shouting, "Who are you?! Do you know we're filming here? Security! Chase them away!" Jane was furious as her plan that was about to succeed was ruined by these unexpected intruders. She wanted nothing more than to slap the woman.However, despite Jane's shouting, no security guards came. Instead, the men in black who were with the woman surrounded Jane and the extras who had beat up Coco.

“……” Morgan suddenly found himself unable to retort. She... wasn't wrong. “But when you play house, you can pretend to be parents with one person today and another person tomorrow. Real marriage is different; you can’t choose someone else.”Renee widened her eyes, listening intently.“The only person you can choose is me. Do you understand, Renee?” he continued.She nodded vigorously. “I understand!”“Do you really?” Morgan asked, a little skeptical. He was already fifteen, so he could grasp the concept of marriage, but she was only eight. Could she truly comprehend it?“So, in the future, I can only marry Morgan and be your bride, right? I can't be someone else's bride, right?” she asked. “I don’t want to marry other boys anyway. I like you the most, Morgan. Of course I’ll only be your bride!” she happily declared, her worries fading away.So she could be Morgan's bride when she grew up! That's great!After finishing another piece of snack, Renee thought of something. She put o

Despite her unease, she couldn’t resist when she saw the sweet desserts. She indulged herself.However, as she ate, her eyes remained fixed on Morgan, clearly still waiting for him to clarify Lucy’s claims.“You want to know if you’re a child bride, right?” Morgan began.Renee nodded.“Do you know what a child bride is?” he asked.She blinked. She had a vague idea, but not enough for her to articulate it.“To put it simply, a child bride is a girl raised by a boy's family. The girl will marry the boy when she comes of age. In the old days, some families were too poor to raise their daughters, so they would sell their daughters to become child brides for richer families,” Morgan explained.Renee blinked. “But my parents aren’t poor, and I'm raised by them, not by other people. That means I’m not a child bride, right?”“Correct, you are not,” Morgan affirmed.She breathed a sigh of relief, and a bright smile spread across her face. “I knew it! My parents would never sell me!

"Morgan!" Renee turned to Morgan, unease etched on her face."The Moon family, eh? I'll remember this," Morgan replied calmly, then lowered his head to meet Renee's anxious and confused face. "Let's go, Renee. I’ll tell you what you want to know later."He led her away holding her hand.Benson looked worried. "Miss Lucy, how could you say that?""It's the truth!" Lucy shook off her fear and spoke defiantly. "Daddy and Mommy said she’s a child bride. A child bride is a girl sold by her own parents!""But the White family is not like that. Those things only happened to daughters of poor families in the old days," Benson explained. "You really shouldn’t have said that, Miss Lucy. You shouldn’t do that again.""Why do I have to listen to you?" Lucy retorted, displeased.Benson was too ashamed to tell Lucy in front of others that the Moon family simply couldn’t afford to offend Morgan. Dealing with the White family was already a headache, and Morgan's background was even more formi

Benson and Lucy were also dumbfounded. Benson started getting anxious. He felt like things were starting to unfold in ways that he did not expect."Mr. Grimes, I..." Benson stepped forward, intending to speak to Mr. Grimes.However, Mr. Grimes moved past Benson without so much as a glance at him. He went up to Morgan and said, "Master Morgan, I apologize for the oversight!"Everyone was stunned to hear that, including the security guards who had been called over. They were secretly relieved they hadn't forcibly removed anyone yet. If they had offended someone Mr. Grimes was showing so much respect to, it would have been really bad for them!Morgan regarded Mr. Grimes with an unreadable expression. He calmly recounted the situation to Mr. Grimes.After hearing about what happened, Mr. Grimes responded, "This set of stamps was not pre-ordered. If you like it, please take it. Feel free to take anything else in the exhibition that catches your eye."This declaration shocked every

"Who are you?!" Benson exclaimed, astonished. The mysterious figure remained silent, simply looking at Morgan.Morgan calmly reiterated to Benson, "I said, wait for Mr. Grimes." He then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "I'm Morgan Wood. Please have Mr. Grimes from Lazy Cat Culture come to the Sleepy Cat Exhibition in Solaria. He should be in the area, right?"After ending the call, the person on the other end stared at the phone in disbelief.The Sleepy Cat Exhibition? What's going on?Benson, Lucy, and the staff stared at Morgan in shock, but the look in their eyes quickly turned to ridicule."Ah, a young man's naive bravado – how impudent!" Benson scoffed."Sir, please don't cause trouble," the staff member warned. "Or I'll have to call security."Morgan simply lowered his head to say to Renee, "Looks like we'll be here for a while. If you're bored, I can ask someone to walk around with you."Renee shook her head. "Morgan, what if this stamp set has really been p

Benson's words were not only meant to exert pressure on the staff, but also to inform him that they were on the same side.As expected, when the staff heard what he said, there was an instant change in his expression. He turned to Morgan and Renee and said, "I'm sorry, but it turns out this stamp set has already been pre-ordered by this customer."Morgan saw through the so-called pre-order as nothing more than an act. "When I asked you to wrap it up earlier, I didn’t hear you mention it was pre-ordered.""We forgot to mention that. Our apologies," the staff replied.Lucy, wearing a smug expression, raised her chin at Renee, causing Renee to puff out her cheeks in frustration.Benson calmly observed Morgan and Renee. The White family's White Maple Group had numerous overlapping businesses with the Moon Group. They were often competing with each other. Originally, the White Maple Group’s business activities weren't concentrated in Solaria, so even though there was competition wi

But before Morgan had even finished speaking, a girl's voice piped up, "I want this stamp set!"He turned to the voice and, upon seeing who it was, narrowed his eyes slightly. It was Lucy Moon, the girl Renee mentioned earlier. At the sight of Lucy, Renee immediately reacted like an angry little kitten. "Lucy Moon, why do you always try to take my stuff away?""Your stuff? How is this your stuff? You haven't paid yet!" Lucy shot back, her eyes fixed on Morgan.Morgan was well-known in their class, admired by many girls who claimed he was even more handsome than movie stars. If only Lucy had a big brother like that! She would be the envy of all the girls in class... no, all the girls in school!Unfortunately, her own big brother was not as good-looking.Last time, Lucy had tried to give Renee Sleepy Cat toys, asking for Morgan's email address in return. However, Renee accepted gifts from everyone but her, which infuriated Lucy."But if you want, I can give this stamp set to Re

Unlike many wealthy kids, Renee was quite restrained with her spending. She had never spent recklessly and often saved leftover money. Of course, when she wanted something beyond her budget, she would act cute and ask her Daddy or Morgan to buy it for her.Lisa was the least susceptible to her charms, so Renee didn’t dare to bother her!When they arrived at the exhibition, Renee’s eyes sparkled with excitement. There were so many adorable Sleepy Cat merchandise! They're all so cute! She wanted a lot of them, but realizing her limited budget, she knew she needed a sponsor! The best one was right beside her: Morgan!"Morgan," she said, flashing him a super bright smile.Seeing her like this, Morgan immediately knew she wanted to ask him for something. "What is it? Do you want me to buy you Sleepy Cat merchandise?""You’re so smart, Morgan! No wonder so many girls in our class like you and asked me for your phone number!" Renee praised him.As soon as she mentioned it, Morgan'

"Okay," Renee replied obediently, snuggling up to Morgan and acting cute. "Take me to the exhibition, Morgan! I know you’re the best. You’ll definitely take me, right?"Morgan pursed his lips. At 15, he was no longer a little boy. Although Renee was only 8, she was his destined wife.He had been protecting her since the day she was born. At first, he thought that he would only marry her because according to the family prophecy, she was the one most suitable for him. Over the years, however, he realized that his feelings for her ran deeper than he had initially thought.He found himself wanting to help her fulfill her wishes, and would clean up the mess when she caused trouble. Things had become different from what he had expected, but he welcomed them. He felt grateful that she was the one who was destined for him!With her by his side for the rest of his life, he would never feel lonely."Will you get into fights again?" Morgan asked."No more fighting, I promise!" Renee quickly
