Semua Bab Adored Stardom: Away from Mr. Hamilton: Bab 271 - Bab 280

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 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

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

[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.'

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
