security. It felt like they were ready to swarm us."
Violeta, however, remained composed.
Her past experiences had accustomed her to less-than-ideal attention. In the industry, the real threat lay in
obscurity.
"Let's go up," she said, offering Aster a reassuring pat on the shoulder.
"Right," Aster replied.
The ttook the elevator, and as they reached their floor, the waiting staff quickly approached, eager to
welcthem. "Ms. White, you've finally arrived. | feared you'd be caught outside," said the staff member, relief
evident in his voice.
Aster replied, "We nearly didn't make it. It was a close call."

reporters and fans around before." Violeta smiled. "It's not a problem."
With a nod, the staff member led them towards the studio. "Let's get you both into makeup."
Since 'Night On the River’, Nolan had landed several promising film roles.
His current project had just concluded shooting.
Today, the film crew was hosting a live-stream event. The stuhad been transformed into a makeshift
broadcast space, brightly lit with the creative team arranged on sofas. Nolan and the director were seated at the
centre.
The atmosphere was easygoing. The host, following the script, engaged with fans and posed questions. Nolan
responded with his usual warmth.
In the corridor, the staff escorted Violeta and her team to another studio.
Through a slightly ajar door, they saw Nolan.
His eyes momentarily lingered on Violeta's fleeting figure, causing him to lose track of the host's next question.
The host, smiling broadly, asked,
"Nolan, our fans are eager to hear
your thoughts on our leading lady's performance. | heard she was so immersed in her role during the wrap that
she ended up in tears."
There was a moment of silence.
Nolan, momentarily distracted by Violeta, missed the question.
Polly, quick to notice his distraction, flashed a smile at the camera and said, "It's really nothing. Everyone was
incredibly supportive. | ended up feeling rather embarrassed, though."
At that moment, Nolan added, "Polly
has always struckas an
outstanding actress. Collaborating with her has been a remarkable experience. The ability to fully immerse
oneself in a role can indeed
be a strength for an actor. If you can't lose yourself in the character, how can you hope to make an impact on the
audience?"
The host chuckled, "Absolutely, everyone here is incredibly talented..."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the adjacent studio, Violeta entered to find the makeup artist busy perfecting her look.
Eugene had noticed Violeta's tendency to appear rigid in front of the camera during their previous shoot.
To help her overcthis, he had enlisted a renowned female photographer to assist Violeta in becoming more
at ease in front of the lens, away from the usual filming environment. The photographer, Aileen Jarvis, arrived
shortly.
"Leslie, I'll take over this shoot. You can resyour other duties," Aileen instructed.
"Understood, Aileen," Leslie responded.
Upon hearing the exchange, Violeta glanced up and saw Aileen entering the studio, setting up her equipment.
Aileen was the very photographer Eugene had spoken of.
Aileen was a celebrated nin the industry, known for her award-winning work and her role as the exclusive
photographer for Elle, one of the leading fashion publications.
It was evident from this arrangement that Eugene's network was impressive, given the difficulty of asking a
favour from Aileen.
As the makeup artist completed her work, Aileen moved closer.
She was elegantly slender, leaning against the back of Violeta's chair. Their eyes met through the mirror, and
Aileen's presence exuded both ease and authority.
