Chapter 2217
If Diana kept bringing her personal distaste into the role like this, Colton would seriously
contemplate whether it was time to pull the plug on the film.
“Look, Colton, just relax, okay? I’m a pro. There’s no way I’d let my personal feelings bleed
into the character,” Diana said with a dismissive wave.
“You better not,” Colton shot back.
“This scene is critical, folks. Let’s get our heads in the game. Scene two, take one, and….
action!”
The script called for Aurora to discover that Valor had been getting cozy with a foreigner,
even overhearing that Valor was considering leaving her childhood stomping grounds with
this stranger.
Hiding behind the door, Aurora clenched her fists until her knuckles turned white, seething

What kind of man was he, toying with Valor’s affections like that? Aurora felt the urge to
storm out and slap him silly, but she knew that would only ruin any chance of a calm,
rational conversation with Valor from then on,
It baffled her how her childhood friend could so easily cast aside their bond for a man she
had known for only half a month.
It was only after David had left that Aurora slumped next to Valor, a gloomy expression
shadowing her face.
“I just saw that guy come by again. Are you still seeing him? Haven’t you heard the
whispers around town? I’m worried he’ll break your heart, so I came to tell you to keep
your distance,” Aurora said, struggling to keep her emotions in check.
Her voice grew louder with each word, and before she knew it, she was on her feet,
jabbing a finger toward Valor’s forehead.
“That smooth-talker, how come he doesn’t just stick around and spend his life with you in
our little fishing village? Why’s he so set on you leaving with him?”
Valor tried to explain with a hint of resignation, “I’m not planning to leave with him,
Aurora. Why do you even think that? It hurts me to hear you say this. We’ve grown up
together; we’re best friends. I could never leave you behind.”
“Leave behind? You say that now, but aren’t you already scheming with him on how to get
away? I heard everything. You don’t trust me, but you trust some guy you barely know!”

“How could you eavesdrop on our conversation? That’s really not okay.”
“I was not eavesdropping! I came to talk to you and just happened to overhear. I just
wanted to have a chat. How did that turn into eavesdropping? Valor, you’ve become so

share everything. We were like the world’s best friends. And now, you’re ready to ditch me
for him?”
Aurora’s words were steeped in sorrow. Their friendship had always been rock-solid, and
she could not fathom what she might have done to deserve being cast aside for a
stranger.
Valor remained calm, her gaze serene as if she embodied the compassion of a saint.
Aurora despised that look more than anything.
“Why would you even think that? Aurora, you will always be my best friend no matter
where I am.”
The more earnestly Valor assured her, the angrier Aurora became, convinced that was just
placating her with sweet nothings.
Valor
In the end, what did it matter? Valor was still plotting to leave with that old man.
