Most of the production team surmised that Susan’s relationship with Mr. Seet was more than they had
played it out to be. They figured that she was someone who had a strong background; someone who
was not to be messed with.
Susan handed the script over to Evan happily. “You don’t have to change. We just can rehearse the
script as it is. Here are the lines. Please have a look at them.”
Evan gazed toward Nicole’s direction, only to find that she was sitting comfortably in a wooden chair, in a
posture that seemed to indicate that she was waiting to watch his rehearsal scene.
She has a big heart indeed! If our roles were reversed, I would never have allowed her to act in a
romantic scene with another man. Still, I never expected her to have the mood to watch. It seems like I’ll
have to give it my all to make it enjoyable for her.
Truth be told, Nicole had a high fever at that point. She had no energy to stand, so she found herself a
place to rest.
Had it not been for her current body condition, she would not have allowed anyone to push her around.
“Let’s start.” Upon hearing his words, Susan prepared herself mentally and built her emotions up.
Instantly, the pair became the center of attention.
It was a story in which both leading characters loved one another. Unfortunately, they were unable to be
together as they were forced to be separated in that scene. Then, the female lead held the male lead’s
hand while she was weeping uncontrollably. In return, he comforted her while embracing her in his arms.
Susan picked this scene deliberately with the intention to allow their rehearsal to make the headlines the
next day. This news will have to go viral. I can’t afford to mess it up.
She drew in a deep breath before she took a huge step forward and clasped Evan’s hand. With tears in
her eyes, she asked, “Do you have to go along with your parents’ marriage arrangement? Is that more
important than us? Why must we be separated?”
Once she finished her line, she wrapped her arms around Evan, leaning against his chest with tears
streaming down her eyes. However, her actions were not scripted this time.
Evan’s heart instantly brimmed with disgust at Susan’s sudden action. Although he had wanted to push
her away, he refrained from doing so. He planned to observe Nicole’s reaction, seeing as she had
seemed rather eager to watch the rehearsal.
Evan turned his gaze toward her, only to take notice of her concentrated gaze in return. For one, she
didn’t seem to have wanted to stop them. It seemed as though she thought that it had nothing to do with
her.
Her reaction confused Evan greatly. Why does she not respond to seeing another woman hug me in
tears?
Filled with rage, he uttered his line, “We are truly in love with each other. No one can ever separate us!
Please believe in me.”
Susan raised her head as she stared at him with pitiable eyes. “Really? You’re not lying to me?”
Evan nodded. “Yes.”
Soon after, he peeked at the indifferent Nicole at the corners of his eyes as he gave Susan a hug.
Everyone immediately turned their eyes to Nicole. In their minds, they believed that Susan was
expressing her true feelings to Evan through her acting. Meanwhile, Nicole, Evan’s wife-to-be, was
cuckolded, unable to say a word in response.
Nicole clenched her fists upon witnessing the scene, taking note of the odd gazes that were directed
toward her.
If I were not dizzy and weak, I would have dashed forward to split them apart, stomping on Evan. Then, I
would have taught Susan an acting lesson by playing out a scene with him.
Soon enough, she began to rise to her feet. Unfortunately, her head began to spin as if she was in a
“Mad Tea Party.” Feeling disoriented, she sat back down in her chair.
My body is not complying with my instructions today. If I force myself to move, I will most likely fall to the
ground miserably; I won’t be able to reach them. I guess that I’ll have to leave them to their own devices
for now. Evan Seet, hug her as many times as you’d like! Just you wait! I’ll be sure to settle the score
with you! You won’t get away with it this time!
Off in the distance, Evan was burning with anger by Nicole’s passionless behavior. He was increasingly
upset after he had caught sight of her closing her eyes. It was as though she could not care less to have
watched them.
Does she even care? If she doesn’t, why would she even put effort into dressing up? Women only put on
their best looks for the people whom they adore. Thus, who is she trying to impress with her outfit and
makeup?
makeup?
