Noelle stepped out of the lounge, rubbing her sleepy eyes. "I fell asleep again? When did you carry me into the lounge?"Charles saw her pouting and could not help but feel a slight catch in his throat. He waved her over. "Come here!"Noelle quickly walked up to him excitedly. "What's up?""Here, for you!" Charles handed her three tickets.Noelle took them and gasped in surprise. "These are tickets to the premiere of White Night! And the press conference too? Full access? Charlie, you're amazing!"Her face lit up with joy, her expression so radiant that Charles momentarily lost himself watching her."Huh? Why are there three tickets?" Noelle tilted her head in confusion. "Did Mr. Wells make a mistake?""Yeah, it's three tickets. They're for you and your two friends," Charles replied."What about you?" she asked instinctively. However, she soon realized something and nodded. "Oh, right, your identity makes it a bit tricky for you to attend!"Noelle waved the tickets excitedly.

"Shirley! Shirley!"The chants from the crowd surged in waves even after Shirley entered the backstage waiting area. The cries for Shirley continued unabated.Noelle and her friends were thoroughly impressed by the overwhelming enthusiasm of the fans. Rowena, in particular, could not contain her excitement."All those other so-called stars are just trash. My idol is the real deal, the true icon! This level of popularity and national recognition is unparalleled! Even though she's not based in this country, her legend lives on here!""Alright, we get it. Shirley's your queen!" Noelle cut Rowena off with a laugh. "I always thought only female fans went crazy for male idols. Who knew you'd be just as wild over a female star?" Noelle chuckled at the thought of Shirley, well into her 40s, still commanding such a devoted and intense fan base. Clearly, she had undeniable charisma."Of course! Shirley is worthy of my eternal adoration!""Alright, the press conference is about to start,"

Rowena's comment was not loud, but it was clear enough for Noelle and Teresa to hear amid the waves of chatter.Noelle blinked. Teresa turned to look at her, then at Shirley on stage. "You're right. I was wondering why Shirley looked so familiar. Noelle, you really do resemble her a bit!""No way!" Noelle froze for a moment. "I don't think so…""It's true! I knew there was something familiar about you when I first met you. Remember that day? Now that I think about it, you and my idol really do share some similarities," Rowena exclaimed, grabbing Noelle's hand and blinking at her.Noelle awkwardly glanced at Shirley. Onstage, Shirley was saying something while interacting with the host. Her exchange drew laughter from the audience. When she smiled, Noelle noticed for the first time just how similar it was to her own smile.Pulling her hand away from Rowena, Noelle said with a forced chuckle, "Zyphonia is so big. It's not unusual for people to share some resemblance. Don't forget, I

Seeing someone step forward to defend Shirley, Kelly let out a cold laugh. "And who are you to be standing up for her? Do you even know who she is?""I… Of course, I know her! Ms. Shrill is my idol! I've admired her for years. I know when she debuted, what movies she's been in, and even her favorite foods!" Rowena retorted with an indignant voice.Kelly sneered at Rowena, "Well, you certainly are her die-hard fan.""That's right!" Rowena responded without hesitation, though she noticed Noelle signaling her to calm down. However, Rowena's fiery temper refused to let anyone insult her idol. "You must be one of those crazy haters who's obsessed with her to the point of madness. You couldn't get her attention, and now, you're bitter and spreading lies!""Obsessed?" Kelly's tone dripped with disdain as her eyes flicked to Shirley on stage. "Is she even worthy? She's filthy!""Whoa…""Who is this woman?""Yeah, how arrogant can she be?""And honestly, her face doesn't even look lik

After Grant and Kelly left, the massive venue did not quiet down. With Kelly gone, all the attention shifted to Shirley."Ms. Shrill, does what Mr. Grant Anderson just said have anything to do with you?""Ms. Shrill, did you involve yourself with the Anderson family in the past?""Ms. Shrill...""Get away! They're spouting nonsense.""Apologies, today's interview ends here!" Shirley's manager immediately stepped in. Without Grant's commanding presence, the manager quickly regained control. "Security! The event is over!"Shirley was escorted out of the venue in no time while surrounded by her team. Though the reporters were reluctant, they did not dare press further.As she observed the entire scene, Noelle shook her head and glanced at a visibly shaken Rowena. "Let's go," she said while patting Rowena's hand with a sigh.She could guess how upset Rowena must have felt and chose not to comment further. Sharing a look with Teresa, Noelle prepared to lead Rowena away.However, a
