"Why are you so afraid of her? It was her mistake in the first place, and I didn't say anything wrong. Honestly, people who keep making mistakes like this won't succeed. I can't help but wonder if Mister Shaun was drunk when he decided to cast her."Melody clenched her fists as she listened to the crew member go from complaining about being unable to find the script to blaming her for misplacing it and suggesting that Shaun must have been blind when choosing her.She was about to go up and defend herself when she heard someone exclaiming from the side, "Found it! I've found the script!"A crew member ran over and handed the script to Melody, saying, "It was over by the food. Maybe you left it there when you were getting something to eat."Melody was about to say she never went to the food table when she was interrupted by the disgruntled assistant."Well, I guess some people just don't have common sense. Us lowly assistants are made to clean up someone else's mess just because she

Athena's expression, her gaze, her posture—all conveyed her curiosity about the person in front of her. She wanted to approach but was also afraid to get too close."What about you? What's your name?"She heard the foreigner say, not understanding how he could speak fluent English. 'Who taught him?' she wondered.She could not help taking three steps back before asking, "Are you a fake foreigner?"Dieter did not get angry. Instead, he explained to her earnestly, "I've been teaching in this country for three years. This is my first time in this city. I'm not lying; I really am a foreigner."...The production crew was just about to shoot the fourth scene by the time Logan arrived, and Stella eagerly watched Melody.Logan did not expect to capture behind-the-scenes footage of Shaun's new film. He was sure his next big expose would trend as long as Shaun's name was riddled all over it."Hey, there's something wrong with this script!"Finally, someone noticed the tampered script a

Shaun stood up and applauded Melody. Everyone felt genuine joy for being able to finish work early.Logan looked at the footage he captured and was impressed by Melody's pure, dynamic acting. No, it should not be called acting; it was as if she was Athena herself.There was absolutely no trace of acting. It was different from the craftsmanship that actors or actresses with formal training carried.'This newbie Melody is destined for success,' thought Logan.Having been in the entertainment industry for so long, Logan had seen it all. Some people were destined for success, something that others could only envy.Melody bowed shyly and expressed her gratitude. "Thank you, everyone, for all your hard work. Thank you."It was not until Melody finished the last scene that the crew members could finally breathe a sigh of relief."Gosh, that was close. I thought we wouldn't be able to shoot that scene. I didn't expect Melody to have memorized all the lines already."As she spoke, she p

Thus, even before Melody's movie was released, she became popular. The boost was both unexpected and expected to her.In contrast, Shaun was not surprised at all. From the first time he saw Melody's audition, it was clear that she was an outstanding talent destined for fame. It was just a matter of time.It was also good for them since the film gained popularity even before its release, saving a considerable amount of money on promotion.While some rejoiced, others worried.Stella could not have imagined that she would be the one inadvertently pushing Melody into the spotlightShe sat in front of her dressing table expressionlessly and swept everything on the table to the floor.Her assistant, standing nearby, kept her head down, afraid to speak."How high is her current level of popularity?" Her tone betrayed a barely contained irritability."She's…still the most trending topic," the assistant replied timidly, unable to understand why Stella would want to torture with the ques

Of course, along with the overwhelming praise, there were also some sarcastic and biting comments, mostly from Stella's fans. Shaun's fame, coupled with Melody's acting skills, and the platform-wide promotion kept the popularity high on her personal account.Lucas, who was in the Rivera Group building, also saw Melody receiving widespread acclaim for her acting.The first time he watched behind-the-scenes footage of Melody shooting, it was a completely different experience from seeing her perform live. He seemed to have turned into an ordinary audience, captivated by her every expression and movement. She transformed into a different person.After a long pause, he sent Melody a message. [Congratulations on receiving public recognition for your acting. Keep up the good work.]Melody happened to be scrolling on her phone when Lucas' message popped on the screen. As she read the message, the smile on her face froze.'Isn't he supposed to be delivering food to Stella? How does he stil

"The head of the finance department provided their assessment of the collaboration with Molomia. The detailed analysis is in the document on your left," answered Edmund."Okay. You all can take a break while I go through this document." Lucas nodded to them, and his subordinates finally relaxed."Our president is great in every way, but he's just too much of a workaholic.""Yeah, everybody needs to rest. Otherwise, why would he suddenly zone out? But don't you find it odd that even Mister Lucas was zoning out?"When Lucas first took over the company, he pulled three consecutive all-nighters. The next day, he was still the most alert person in the meeting, earning the respect and admiration of the veteran employees."The passage of time really is relentless..."Even someone as young as Lucas could not endure it anymore. What about them?After the meeting, Lucas sighed with relief. Throughout the entire meeting, he found it unprecedentedly difficult to concentrate. He constantly f

'Oh, I forgot that this man is here to deliver food to Stella. It's none of my concern, then,' thought Melody.Lucas frowned when he saw Melody being indifferent as usual. He came all the way to see her, yet she still maintained an aloof attitude."Hmph. Don't you find it unattractive that you, the female lead, are squatting here so inelegantly?"Melody was quite puzzled. "No one else found it inelegant that I was squatting here before you got here. Aren't you here to find someone? Well, go on."'How can she still be so aloof when she knows I'm here to find her? Does she really think she's some bigshot or something?' thought Lucas."Melody, don't tell me you think you're some bigshot actress now just because you got on the trending topic once. You do know you still have a long way to go, right?" said Lucas with a sarcastic smile.His airy tone made Melody quite uncomfortable as if all her previous efforts were in vain. Melody wanted to give him a piece of her mind, but considerin

"Melody, listen to me. Put all your focus on acting now. Nothing else is worth wasting your energy on. You'll have more confidence in other aspects of your life once you succeed in your career," said Shaun.However, the producer could not help but contradict Shaun's words. "It's okay. Going through some hardships will make it easier for you to portray some of your characters. Acting skills are crucial, but even more important is the ability to feel—to experience everything happening in your life and in the lives of others. Your acting career will go smoother once you have a niche you're good in."Melody forced a smile, making her look even more pitiful. "I understand. Thank you, both of you."…Meanwhile, in Stella's dressing room trailer."Lucas, aren't you busy at work? How come you have time to come to the film set?"Stella had a perfectly timed smile on her face as she sat beside Lucas. She automatically assumed that Lucas had come here to see her."I'm not here to visit you

Melody looked up at Sherman and sincerely thanked him. "I was in such an awful mood today, but I feel so much better after drinking the coffee. Thank you, Sherman."She looked both naive and delicate with her long, curly eyelashes and Athena's school uniform that she had not changed out of yet."I almost forgot to compliment you. I've watched the behind-the-scenes footage online, and you acted so well. It's like you're Athena herself! I'm looking forward to watching the film on the big screen!"Melody shyly scratched her head. "Really? I'm glad you like the character I played. But there are still many charms and details of Athena that still haven't been revealed yet. I'm afraid I can't disclose any to you."She took a sip of her coffee.Sherman nodded. "I can tell from the behind-the-scenes footage that Athena and Dieter definitely didn't meet for the first time. They likely knew each other before. Otherwise, how could Dieter, a foreigner who visited the city for the first time, t

"Why are you chuckling like that?" asked Melody with a frown."It's nothing. Stop being so sensitive," Lucas replied.Melody lowered her head and gritted her teeth."Come on, Sherman, we haven't had a meal together yet. Why not join us?" asked Stella.Sherman had not eaten either, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to see if Melody was really Lucas' wife.In the end, everyone gave in to Stella's persuasion, and they all went to a Japanese restaurant not far from the film studio.When they sat down, Stella quickly squeezed in beside Lucas.Lucas paused as he sat down, looking across at Melody. To his dismay, she sat expressionless next to Sherman, seemingly unfazed. His expression grew darker, and the atmosphere in the room became more strained."It's been a long time since we've been to this restaurant. Lucas, do you remember when we used to come here often when we were kids? This restaurant used to be our favorite. I wonder if it still tastes good now."Lucas' gaze r
