Amelia called Lucas on the way to the hospital. Lucas was astonished to hear her decision and asked, "Amelia, are you sure about this decision?" He thought Amelia should cherish such a great opportunity and her resources. After all, she was still a novice screenwriter. He also felt that stopping the filming and adaptation because she was dissatisfied with the lead actress was a hasty decision. "Yes. I've thought it through," Amelia said firmly. Lucas fell silent for a while before responding, "Alright, I'll notify the development department and the director's team to stop the filming. We can discuss the rest later. We've come this far, stopping now would mean significant losses, especially since some actors have already signed contracts." Hearing Lucas say this, Amelia could only agree.She knew if they stopped filming now, it would mean breaching contracts, and compensations would be due. Nevertheless, she refused to let Ava play the role in the drama. "Okay, thank yo
Lily was momentarily silent. Then, she asked softly, "Did he personally tell you to cast Ava as the lead actress in the drama?" "That's not it. Liam told me that Leona recently established ..." At this point, Lucas came to a realization. "Right, Liam never specifically told me to cast Ava. He just asked me to support Leona and provide some resources and opportunities for the actors in her studio!" Lily pursed her lips and said, "Those Lancaster sisters are persistent, aren't they?" "Lily, don't say that. Leona and Hannah are different," Lucas said, having had a good impression of Leona.Lily scoffed. However, she didn't bother explaining and simply returned to the original topic. "So, assigning Ava the role was your misunderstanding of Liam's intention?" she asked. Lucas quickly shook his head. He wasn't about to take the blame. "Liam asked me to support Leona and to pick a script from the company's recent resources for her studio. Thinking it was a personal request from
Amelia didn't doubt Liam's explanation, but she felt slightly overwhelmed with emotion. So that was the case. "Lia, trust me. Let me handle this matter, okay?" Liam grasped Amelia's shoulders and looked at her earnestly. He wouldn't allow anything to happen to Amelia's first script. "I …" Amelia wanted to say something, but she hesitated. Was she just supposed to rely on Liam? Liam guessed Amelia's thoughts and took her hands. "Lia, you're my wife. Everything I have is yours. I'm using resources that belong to you. It isn't negating your efforts. It's just about making your hard work known to more people!" Amelia's heart trembled. She looked up at Liam as her heart was pounding.By the side, Lucas and Lily shivered, looking fed up. "He's so cheesy. This is the first time I've seen him like this!" "Me too!" The two murmured, not bothering to lower their voices.Amelia heard everything and felt a bit embarrassed. Liam glanced at them and said, "Take a walk outside if
"Walking Into Love" started filming smoothly and an enormous weight was lifted from Amelia's heart. Liam and Leona met again, and Liam specifically brought Amelia along for fear she might misunderstand him again. "Leo, I'm sorry about this time. I agreed without asking clearly and caused you to lose credibility," Liam said. The role that belonged to her artist was gone, and this news would weaken her studio's competitiveness. Leona shook her head with a smile. "Don't blame yourself. I didn't clarify things with you due to my lack of inquiry. After knowing about the grudges between you guys, I should have been honest with you. But I thought it was all in the past and Ms. Jenson wouldn't mind, so I didn't tell you. In the end, I was too presumptuous. I thought that it was still like before, that as long as I wanted something, you would agree unconditionally like ... like Luke did. I forgot that you now have someone else by your side and need to consider other things." As Leon
"Liam, can you accompany me abroad when you have time?" Both of them looked at Leona. Liam asked in concern, "Is there something you need?" Leona replied, "I came back in a rush this time. And I didn't know if everyone could accept the fact that I'm still alive, so most of my stuff is still overseas. Now that I've settled down and you all still treat me the same as before, I want to bring everything back." Leona looked at Liam gratefully and continued, "Honestly, I'm truly touched that you ... you all can still accept me. It's no wonder Ms. Jenson would think that way. Even I feel a bit guilty toward your brother. We promised to be together forever, but I've left him alone." As Leona spoke, her eyes reddened. "If I had gone with him back then, that would have been a blessing too!" Leona exclaimed.Liam frowned and scolded lightly, "Nonsense. It's a blessing that you were able to return safely. Luke would've wanted you to live a good and happy life." Leona wiped her eyes
Just as Amelia decided where to go for the trip, Leona had already set a date for her own trip abroad. That evening, when Amelia was about to discuss her travel plans with Liam, he told her he would be accompanying Leona on her trip abroad that weekend. Amelia immediately swallowed back her words. Liam observed her silence and asked in concern, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy about me accompanying her abroad? But didn't you agree last time?" Amelia had agreed, but she hadn't expected Leona's trip to coincide with the date she planned. She pursed her lips and said, "I'm not unhappy. But you said last time you would accompany me on a trip when you have time. Ms. Lancaster has been back for a long time and never mentioned the need to rush to retrieve her things. Does it have to be this weekend?" Liam wrapped his arms around Amelia's waist and said, "Her company only just started running and she barely managed to clear her weekend this week. Moreover, you said you hadn't decided
As soon as Amelia realized who it was, she lost all desire to sleep. Liam entered the room and asked, "Why aren't you sleeping?" Amelia looked at him as he opened the wardrobe to change his clothes. He showed no intention of returning to bed. "If you're not sleeping, why should I?" she replied. Liam smiled and helped her pick out clothes from the wardrobe. He said, "Then you should wake up and have some breakfast. You can take a nap after that. Leo's here, it would be nice for you to chat with her while I make breakfast." Amelia had expected this. She nodded. "Okay."She wondered if Leona came over so early because she feared Amelia would stop Liam from leaving. Despite that, Amelia still greeted Leona with a smile. "Ms. Lancaster, you're here early. Have you eaten breakfast yet? Liam is about to make breakfast. You can taste his cooking and see if his skills have worsened," she said. Leona replied with a surprised smile, "I met Brandon a few days ago. He mentioned
"What are you two talking about so seriously? Come and have breakfast!" Just as Amelia and Leona were at an impasse, Liam came out of the kitchen and placed a plate of breakfast on the dining table. Leona walked over with a smile and said, "We were talking about how you've learned to cook!" Amelia walked over with her wordlessly and simply took her usual seat. Then, she saw Leona enter the kitchen, saying, "I'll help you!" Amelia watched as one person brought out the dishes while another person arranged the cutlery. She found the scene rather jarring. It was as if the two of them were the ones living together. "Do I have something on my face, Ms. Jenson? Why do you keep staring at me?" Leona asked, looking embarrassed.Liam glanced at Amelia as a fleeting expression crossed his face. Amelia suddenly laughed. "Ms. Lancaster, you're so beautiful, and many people consider you as their goddess. Even if there was something on your face, you would still be charming." Leona m
