’Leighton.' The name sounded familiar, but Stella could not pinpoint where she had heard it. Moreover,
his face also looked rather familiar. His features were so delicate that he could be described as a pretty
boy.
Since they were going to become partners in the film, Stella wanted to get to know him. However, after
introductions, the man turned away and sat elsewhere. Stella put her hands down embarrassingly and
sat down. She took her phone out and searched for Leighton.
She then realized where she had seen that man before. Leighton was the actor who played the main
character in Secret Sweetheart. Stella had become Bella's voice double at that time, while Leighton did
not have a voice actor.
Stella stared at Leighton's face for over a week when they were doing the voiceovers. That was why he
looked so familiar.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLeighton Hall—a popular influencer who made his debut on a talent show at the age of twenty-one. His
first album won top sales of the year when it first came out, and his song was nominated for the Golden
Melody Award. During the second year of his debut, he broke records with the TV drama, Celestial
Sword. He had one blockbuster TV drama show each year, and within three years, he became one of
the most famous celebrities.
As a result, every actress who worked with him gained fame as well. The fans said that they were
lucky. Bella's popularity skyrocketed precisely that year because of their collaboration in Secret
Sweetheart.
Stella had witnessed Leighton's acting skills because she was Bella's voice actor. 'In all fairness, he
has the basics.' Drama celebrities often have low acting requirements. Therefore, many of them were
not great actors.
However, Leighton conveys his emotions well on screen. He was one of the few actors who knew how
to control his facial expressions.
However, it was said that Leighton was not someone who was easy to get along with. He also had a
weird temper. Usually, when drama shows air on screen, the main characters have to corporate to push
the series. One of the ways to do this is to couple up. However, Leighton had never pulled this type of
publicity stunt with a coworker before. When Secret Sweetheart first came out, Bella kept tagging
Leighton on social media to garner more attraction.
Leighton did not respond at first, but then he unfollowed her accounts before the show ended. Bella's
fans were mad and created a group to show their hate for Leighton for being unprofessional and
uncooperative. They were furious at him for creating such drama between him and his coworker during
the show's airing, saying that it was no surprise that he was still a small celebrity.
Leighton's fans did not admit defeat and said that Bella was just a normal girl in beautiful clothing. They
scolded her for pulling the couple publicity stunt every time she worked with someone but could not
accept it when her partner refused to do the same.
This incident was rather groundbreaking back then, but it died down within two days. Stella did not pay
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmuch attention to the news, but Felicity sat in the front-row seat and told Stella all about it.
Stella was surprised that Leighton was her partner in Motives for Murder. She recalled that there were
not many roles in this film, and there were only 3-4 males.
She could not imagine someone with a high status like Leighton taking on such a small role. Just as
she was thinking about it, her phone vibrated. She looked down and saw that Keegan had transferred
one hundred thousand dollars to her, asking if she was hungry. 'Why is this man just throwing money at
me? Does he think that I would accept his advances like this?1
Stella sent him 10 dollars with the text, [No.]
Keegan quickly transferred another hundred thousand dollars and said, [ What did you have for
dinner?]
Stella looked around, and with another ten dollars, she wrote, [A full-on feast.]
Keegan sent one hundred thousand dollars again with [...] as the remark.
Stella was puzzled. 'That much money for just three dots?'
Not long after, Keegan gave her one million dollars with the words, [That's better than what I'm having.]
