Chapter 271

"Just think about how popular your brother Bruce is, the absolute top tier among male actors, his fame so widespread, as if he's taken the streets by storm. And Luke? He's Bruce's sworn rival. Do you really think just anyone could qualify to be your brother's rival? Don't they have to be equally capable, a match in strength and fame?""So, am I simply basking in Luke's glory now?""I guess you could say that." Amelia nodded. "Without Luke being a part of this drama, do you think there would be these many comments? Sure, the proof of the pudding is in the eating, but if no one's ever tried the pudding, who's going to tell others how good it is?"Wyneth gave her a sidelong glance. "You're becoming quite a chatterbox."Amelia immediately retorted, "I'm just telling it like it is."Ignoring Amelia, Wyneth reached out to Shaun. "The post on Facebook hasn't been up for long. See if you can get someone to contact the account holder to delete the post. My friend is in the picture. I don't

Chapter 272

After two days in Acrofburg, Wyneth returned, officially joining the cast of Cessation.While her character, Aurelia, may not have a lot of screen time, she required both good looks and fighting skills. Cessation was a different breed from Le Palais.Le Palais had many fight scenes for her, but they were not too demanding, with a fight choreographer right there to guide her through the motions. Cessation, however, was a meticulously crafted, period action-drama with its demands for fight scenes much more stringent. Every male actor, including the lead, had to join the team in advance for grueling training. Aurelia's fight scene was only one, so her training time was short, merely three to four days. On her first day, the crew arranged her accommodation.As the crew member handed over her room keycard, he teased, "This is the room right next to Luke's."Wyneth was puzzled. "Next to Luke?" She did not accept the keycard, instead saying, "I've booked a hotel nearby.""Oh, was it arra

Yoyo came in gasping for breath. "They're all gossiping about you, saying the team from Cessation must have sent you packing. That's why you're back here."Wyneth was at a loss for words. 'Goodness, people sure have a lot of spare time.'"They didn't, did they? After all, the production team even released your makeup test shots, right?"Her question amused Wyneth. "Do you believe that?""Of course not. I defended you to them before I left. What are you holding there?" Yoyo's curious gaze swept over like a searchlight.The divorce papers had already been tucked away in the file, completely out of sight. Wyneth nonchalantly responded, "Just some personal papers."Hearing the word "personal", Yoyo knew better than to press further. Once Wyneth put the file in her suitcase, Yoyo could not help but ask, "Didn't you say you would be coming back here to stay? What's this about?""The training starts at 5 o'clock in the morning over there. I want to sleep an extra ten minutes."Yoyo wa

Yoyo had helped Wyneth settle into her hotel room, even tidying up for her. As she prepared to leave, Wyneth escorted her to the elevator entrance where Yoyo could not resist hugging Wyneth tightly."You've got to come see me when you get a chance," Yoyo implored.Wyneth teased her in return, "I got it. You go ahead and scrub up for me, okay?""Ugh, you're terrible."After Yoyo stepped into the elevator, Wyneth turned to head back but bumped into Luke at the corner. Their gazes locked for a moment."Hi, Luke," Wyneth greeted, unflustered.However, Luke seemed uncomfortable, swiftly averting his gaze before striding past her as if he had not seen her at all.Wyneth was taken aback. Ever since she had accidentally caught a glimpse of him fresh out of the bath in his dressing room, his attitude toward her had been strangely awkward. But she could do nothing. She had seen him, and she had apologized; there was nothing more to it. She shrugged it off, returning to her room and retrie

Yet, hearing her words, Luke's expression soured even further. "You forgot?""Yeah, I'm sure you wouldn't want me to remember, would you?"Luke pursed his lips and did not utter a word, his mood seemingly plummeting to an all-time low.Ding— The elevator finally halted on their floor. As the doors slid open, a familiar crowd stood inside."Luke.""Morning, Luke.""Hey? Isn't this our new lead actress, Aurelia?" Someone's eyes landed on Wyneth, the excitement evident. "You're staying with Luke?"Wyneth's expression shifted slightly. 'What do they mean by staying together?'Just as she was about to explain, Luke's icy voice cut in, "Same floor, not together."The person, noticing Luke's foul mood, promptly fell silent. The rest of the crowd, struck by the sudden appearance of such a beautiful lady, dropped their jester-like antics, feigning decorum and even making room for her."Thank you, everyone," Wyneth said.The men exchanged glances, fixating on Wyneth's pretty face, all

Before Wyneth had a chance to respond, Luke was already on the move.Wyneth could only stare after him, dumbstruck. 'How long is he going to hold that incident against me?' she wondered, shaking her head in resignation before she hurried to catch up.The men had been training for the production of Cessation for quite some time now, and they had gone through at least a month of rigorous preparation before the cameras started rolling. Running was child's play for them by now, and they would normally be halfway through their run by this time. But today, they had slowed their pace to accommodate the newcomer, Wyneth. A bunch of strapping men sauntering along was as if they lacked any drive or energy. It gave Jax a headache just to watch. He would have liked to give them a piece of his mind, but then he remembered the delicate-looking young lady who had just joined the team and thought better of it. 'Let it slide, Jax,' he told himself. 'It's her first day of training. Don't scare her off

With that, Luke was suddenly burning with indignation and dialed Shaun's number. As soon as Shaun answered, Luke said, "You ever barge into my dressing room again, old man, I'm dumping you as my manager.""What?" Shaun was clearly taken aback. "When did I ever...?" He got no further before the line went dead. "Hello? Hello?" After several futile attempts to reconnect, Shaun realized he had been cut off. "Mysterious as always." He tucked away his phone, shrugging off the incident. The longstanding animosity between him and Luke was something he had grown used to.Ever since the day Wyneth had "held Luke hostage" with her threat, and every time he laid eyes on her, his expression darkened even more. Nevertheless, he stopped singling her out. Whenever he saw her, he would stride past her without a sideways glance. The first few times were no big deal, but as the instances increased, rumors started to circulate in the production crew that Luke was displeased with the female lead."Why i

[Can the backdoor entry skedaddle back to her own garbage shows, please? She better not tarnish our man's hard work he puts into filming all year round.][Seriously, is she clueless? He's giving her the cold shoulder and she doesn't even realize it? Do us all a favor and quit. We can crowdfund another gig for you, just don't mess with our idol, okay?][What I'm really itching to know is, who's the sugar daddy. He's got his fingers in Luke's pie too? Now that's a head-scratcher.][Well, to be fair, even with a sugar daddy, it's understandable. Check out how gorgeous she is! If I had the money, I'd want to keep her around, too.]Wyneth skimmed through the top comments before searching her own name on the platform—a new trick she had learned recently to keep tabs on what was happening in her world. What she found was a whirlwind of rumors about Luke's disdain for her and his grim-faced interactions on set. She sighed, mentally acknowledging, 'This industry is indeed a complex beast.'

"L-Luke, there's something I think you should know about.""What is it?" Luke asked, thumbing through his script."It's about... the rumors that you're upset on the set."Hearing this, Luke paused. "Oh?""Apparently, word got out to the public. It's trending on Facebook. People are saying you're dissatisfied with Wyneth." The assistant showed Luke his phone, his furrowed brows deepening as he scrolled. "I thought I should bring it up since this could potentially harm your reputation, so...""What about her?"The assistant blinked. "Pardon?""What's happening with her Facebook?"Only then did the assistant realize that Luke was asking about Wyneth's Facebook. "I'm not quite sure about her situation." After all, he was only Luke's assistant; when news like this broke, his first thought was how it could impact Luke's image, not someone else's.Luke was silent for a moment, before saying, "You can go."After his assistant left, Luke pulled out his own phone and logged onto Facebo

Shaun gaped at him, astonishment widening his eyes as his mind grappled with what he had just heard. 'Did I just mishear? There's no way I just heard Luke say that Wyneth caught him in the midst of his post-shower routine. Surely, not that intimate, exposed moment?' The shock was swiftly replaced by exhilaration, causing Shaun to bolt upright from his seat as though he had been jolted by an electric current. "Then what?" he urged eagerly.Luke narrowed his eyes, the palpable danger in his gaze evident. "What do you mean 'then what?'"Shaun was practically quivering with anticipation. "What did she see then?"Luke was rendered speechless."Did she see you—"Before Shaun could complete his scandalous thought, he was promptly cut off by Luke's dark glare. "Keep your disgusting thoughts to yourself.""What's disgusting about it? You're the one who brought it up." Shaun pouted, but his eyes began to twinkle mischievously. "You weren't... actually naked, were you?"Luke became even mo
