Chapter 2645
It would be a huge shock for everyone else to marry off right after her first film.
Yet, Ivy’s fans seemed to have a pact, initially quiet but eventually unanimous in their blessings.
They had seen enough heartaches; the last thing they wanted was to deny their beloved actress her happiness.
But for Balfour, Ivy felt a pang of guilt. He, aman who once shunned the paparazzi, now found himself in the relentless glare of
the spotlight beside her.
In past interviews, he could remain an enigma, faceless to the public. Now, his image was splashed across the pages of tabloids.
She had broached the subject, suggesting they go their separate ways in public to avoid the frenzy. But Balfour refused.
“Besides,” he said, gripping her hand with a tenderness that belied his firm tone, “I’ve waited so long for you to take my hand in
front of the public. Now you ask me to let go? I’m sorry; | can’t do that.”novelbin
Ivy murmured her agreement and nestled into his embrace. She believed that time would smooth things over.
She believed he would prove to her fans that her choice was sound, that they would come to see who the man he truly was.
The upcoming fan meet-and-greet was the perfect opportunity, and Balfour had his own agenda.
He chose to sit among the fans, craving the chance for closer contact, hoping they'd see him for who he was beyond the
headlines.
Before the event even wrapped up, the internet had been buzzing with posts about Balfour, now affectionately dubbed “Consort
of the Year.”
The title took off, with comments piling up like snowflakes:
[Can it be that man I’m thinking of? Saw him at the meet-and-greet today. Can't believe the big boss was right next to me!]
[Shocked! Doesn't a CEO usually have bodyguards? What’s he doing in the stands? Didn’t Ivy get her man a private box?]
[LOL, it’s hilarious, but Ivy's fan base
is huge! | thought those 5,000 tickets
would take ages to be sold, but they
vanished in seconds! She’s the only
actress with that kind of pull
nowadays. Her fans even got the first
tickets. Guess she isn’t hurting for
cash, not a scalper in sight] Visit

[Ha! Even | couldn't snag a ticket to her fan event. I’m a scalper, by the way. Heard her studio made it clear: hands off the tickets;
they're going straight to her fans.]
Netizens were astounded; it was an unwritten rule that scalpers got their hands on most tickets of every concert. That was how
the celebrities made money.
But thinking of Balfour's backing, Ivy’s lavish approach made sense. Backed by the Howard Group, she wasn’t concerned with
petty profits.
[How jealous the comments are,
though! This event was paid for with
Ivy's ‘Ballad of Valor’ salary. She
wouldn't take a dime from her man
for career-related expenses. She's
independent and can earn her own
way, thank you very much! And let’s
not forget arranging private
transportation, ensuring fan safety,
and having a chef preparing snacks
for everyone. Isn't that a sign of her
dedication to her fans? But you only
see the man behind her, and that's
pretty sad.] Visit noveldrama.org to
