"Who's the lead actress in 'Le Palais'?"'Le Palais's lead actress?' Dexter whipped out his phone to search, clueless about the Hamilton family's drama or Wyneth's plan to divorce Hayden. Upon discovering the leading actress's identity, he promptly informed Hayden."Mr. Hamilton, it's Gigi, Mr. Kane's sister."Dexter pondered Hayden's inquiry. 'Is he curious about the cast of Le Palais? Or concerned the leading actress might mistreat his wife? After all, his wife plays a villainess in the drama.'Hayden was surprised that Wyneth played a supporting role for Gigi after being humiliated at the Hamilton residence. 'Until the previous night, she might have been capable of such a thing. But since then, she has changed. Is it merely a coincidence?' he wondered, pocketing his phone. "Any other plans this afternoon?""We have a two-hour meeting, Mr. Hamilton. Should we visit your wife on set?" Dexter asked, his face alight with excitement. "We have plenty of time. Let's head to the set."
As Wyneth walked away with a straight face, Gigi was left fuming. 'That shameless woman!' she exclaimed to herself, her anger escalating. 'How can anyone be as shameless as Wyneth?'Her assistant reminded her in a hushed tone. "Gigi, let's go find Mr. Hamilton. We can't let Wyneth hold us up any longer."Gigi realized her priorities and nodded. 'Hayden is the most important thing right now. Once I become Hayden's wife, I'll find a chance to deal with Wyneth.' With that, she quickly gathered her skirts and rushed out.Hayden's sudden appearance on set was causing a stir among the crew, including Matthew. "Why is this big shot coming to the set?" someone whispered. "Did he invest in this production?"Matthew could not help but think of what happened last night at the hotel. 'How could it be? Is Mr. Hamilton really interested in Wyneth?'His thoughts were interrupted by a sweet, charming voice. "Hayden."He looked over to see Gigi approaching Hayden with a skip in her step and a pla
"Real ones don't beat around the bush. Where's Mr. Hamilton's wife?" Dexter's voice was low, barely audible.Matthew strained to hear him. "What?"Dexter was about to speak, but he felt a piercing gaze coming from behind him. The familiar sense of pressure crept up on him, and he immediately straightened his shoulders. "What I meant was, where's that newbie actress from last night?"Matthew furrowed his brow, searching his memory. "New actress?" he repeated. And then, in a flash of insight, he exclaimed, "Oh, you mean Wyneth?"'Isn't he here to visit Gigi?' Matthew wondered. 'Why is he asking about Wyneth now?'As Matthew finished his sentence, he sensed a slight relief from the intense pressure that had been suffocating him. It seemed like he had given the right answer. "Bad timing, guys. Wyneth just left after signing her contract," Matthew said bluntly. 'I remember when Wyneth left, she even said to me that she was leaving. So, it must be true, right?'"Left?" Dexter's eyes wi
Gigi blabbered on the phone about Hayden dropping by her workplace. Jake could not believe it. After all, he had known Hayden for years and had never seen him be the type to visit someone at work. And Gigi was not exactly Hayden's type either. It turned out that Hayden was there to look for Wyneth.Jake prodded. "Did you get turned down? She didn't want to see you? Is that why you're seeking my help?"He recalled the strange tension between Hayden and Gigi the night before, but he did not expect it to escalate this quickly. He leaned closer to Hayden and asked inquisitively, "So, does the chick not want to talk to you now?"Hayden's icy glare sent chills down Jake's spine. "Did you just call her a chick?"Jake shrugged nonchalantly. "What's wrong with that? She's young. Can't I call her that? You're too uptight."Jake did not want to annoy Hayden any further. "Alright, I'll help you out this time. I'll gather the entire cast and crew for dinner tonight, even the extras. I guarante
The mere thought of those vivid images made Wyneth's skin crawl, as a wave of spine-tingling goosebumps washed over her with an unsettling intensity. 'Divorcing with such resolve, only to be reduced to my former self by a single drink – could I still hold my head high in front of Hayden?' She now felt more humiliated than a groveling lapdog.Wyneth covered her forehead with the script and lay back on the bed. Her phone rang, and she picked it up, placing the script beside her. "Shaun.""Wyneth, how's your progress on memorizing the script? Mr. Kane is inviting the entire crew to dinner at the hotel tonight. I'll come to pick you up later."'Hotel? Not again!' Wyneth refused coolly and nobly. "I need to study the script. I won't go.""The script can wait until tomorrow. Doesn't the director give you a few days off? Mr. Kane has invited the entire crew, and everyone has to show up," Shaun said, his tone serious."Everyone has to show up?""Yes, even the extras will be there."Wyne
Shaun arrived right on time to pick Wyneth up, but he was utterly spellbound when he saw her. Dressed in a red skirt with high heels, her alluring, captivating figure left him breathless. He knew Wyneth was gorgeous, but he had no idea her beauty was this extraordinary – a refined, unapproachable, and icy elegance. One more glance, and he felt undeserving.Trying to regain his composure, Shaun unexpectedly gave himself a light slap on the mouth. 'Pull yourself together! As a manager, I've seen countless beauties in the entertainment industry!'Wyneth tapped on the car window and then climbed into the car.As they sat close together, her beauty became even more overwhelming for Shaun. "Wyneth, I'm starting to worry."She cast a sideways glance, her striking eyes floating toward him, her red lips parting. "About what?""Your stunning appearance."Wyneth blinked, fixing her gaze on Shaun as if to say, 'That's it?'"A supporting actress being more beautiful than the lead can be a se
The sudden arrival of a stunning beauty in the room ignited a wave of excitement and curiosity among everyone present."Who is she? How can anyone be so incredibly gorgeous? A new actress, perhaps?""It's Lucienne! No, wait, I mean the actress portraying Lucienne – her name is Wyneth Walford. Shaun introduced her as a fresh talent.""Unbelievable! Shaun must be a god in the entertainment world. How did he manage to sign someone with such extraordinary beauty?"In an instant, all eyes were riveted on Wyneth. People scrutinized her with a mix of curiosity and awe, and some could not help but glance back and forth between her and Gigi.Gigi was seething inside, but as she noticed people stealing glances at her, she mustered a forced smile."Come on, Wyneth, let's introduce you to the lead actor and actress." Matthew's voice rang out. Gigi's mood was far from good, and yet, there was Matthew, bringing Wyneth right over to her. "This is Leo Wood, the male lead of Le Palais, and this i
Jake gave an unconcerned nod, but his eyes roamed through the crowd with intent, until he spotted Wyneth in the corner. He then shot a knowing look toward Hayden.Hayden nonchalantly lowered his eyes, ready to approach Wyneth, but before he could take two steps out, Jake grabbed his arm and whispered in a low voice, "I invited the whole crew for dinner, man. Can't you just hold back your impulses for once?" He took a deep breath and gestured impatiently. "Sit down and wait, be patient."Hayden gritted his teeth, his annoyance palpable.Jake continued. "She's here now. She's not going anywhere."Maybe it was the last remark that convinced Hayden, as he locked eyes with Wyneth in the corner, giving her a straightforward gaze before quickly looking away.The others sitting next to Wyneth were stirred up."Did you all see that? Mr. Hamilton just checked her out.""Oh my god, he's hotter than any pretty boy actor in the business. Why isn't he a celebrity? That look made me weak in th
