Ethan couldn't take his eyes off him. Leona looked very different but it did not affect her beauty at all.Her hair was now straight and a bit of it was tugged on her left ear.She was in a big hoodie with a pair of baggy jeans and sneakers.When we had no makeup on.Her look was simple but it was more than enough for Ethan.This is the face he had been yearning for these past months.His heart.It's now close by. But how to keep it. Leona wiped her brow, a sense of accomplishment evident in her expression. "Well, I think we've done a pretty good job here." she said. Ethan nodded in agreement, a grin spreading across his face. "Definitely. Who knew we'd make such a dynamic traffic-clearing duo?"Leona chuckled, looking at her car parked nearby. "And now, I should be on my way."Ethan's celebratory mood dimmed slightly at the thought of her leaving so soon. As Leona headed toward her car, he hesitated for a moment, then found his voice. "Hey, Leona."Leona paused and turned bac
Ethan and Leona continued to talk and laugh, their connection growing stronger with each passing moment.“I can't wait to believe we have to part ways here” Ethan said .“How about we meet each other again” Leona added As they were about to walk out of the café, a voice suddenly cut through the air."Well, well, well, if it isn't the great Ethan Willow," the voice sneered.Ethan turned to the source of the voice, his eyebrows raised. Standing there with a smug grin was none other than Robert, his presence shining arrogance.Leona looked at Robert and then at Ethan, her eyes widening in surprise. She could feel the tension in the air, and it was clear that there was no love lost between these two.Ethan's lips quirked into a sarcastic smile. "Oh, Robert Willow , I almost didn't recognize you without your usual bouquet of arrogance."Robert's smile didn't waver, but his eyes flashed with annoyance. "How nice it is to meet you again, Ethan. I must say, your timing is impeccable as alw
As Leona hung up the phone, Ethan couldn't help but ask, "Who's Alex?".He knew his question was a little over the top since they had no connection with each other .But he just couldn't help himself. Leona's expression was a mix of emotions, but she offered a small smile. "He's a friend… or at least he used to be."she answered with a bitter smile. Ethan's curiosity got the best of him. "Sounds like there's more to the story."he asked not shying away from the fact that he wanted to know more. Leona's gaze turned distant for a moment as he recounted the past moments. "We used to be really close. He was there for me when things were tough during back in the days. But things changed, and… well, sometimes people grow apart."Ethan nodded, understanding the unspoken complexities of relationships. "I get that. Life has a way of changing things."Leona sighed, her gaze returning to Ethan. "Yeah. Anyway, I should head back. The audition is starting soon, and I don't want to be late."
Their gazes met briefly, carrying the weight of past memories and the uncertainty of the present. Leona's heart pounded, her mind racing with conflicting thoughts.“I hate this feeling” she said to herself with a frown. Alex looked at her quietly and saw that frozen on her face .“Are you okay” he asked with a worried look.He stretched out his hands and almost touched her when Leona took a step back .“It's fine. Just a small headache” Leona answered and looked away with a polite smile .“Are you sure? I can…”Alex was about to finish when Leona interrupted .“It's okay Mr. Alex. I'm just a new international artist and you are a famous producer. I don't think it will look great in your image to see you worry about a newbie like me” “Leona you don't have to…” he wanted to speak again but Leona interrupted him again.“Please, let's not make this more awkward than it already is. I thank you for this great opportunity but I hope we act professional with each other” she said with a c
Jubilee was feeling glad in her heart .Why?It was very obvious . Jubilee, unfazed by the skepticism around her, continued to address the group. "It's important to remember that we're all unique. Our paths and motivations may differ, but that doesn't diminish anyone's worth or potential."she rebuked those ladies angrily.Leona observed Jubilee's self-righteous demeanor, her eyes narrowing slightly as she picked up on the underlying message. Jubilee was subtly highlighting her own supposed virtue compared to Leona's perceived flaws.“But you saw it yourself . She is a vixen”“Well I guess I’m not the only one”.Jubilee continued her self-righteous tone, "We should uplift one another instead of tearing down, no matter our differences. Our individuality is our strength."Leona met Jubilee's gaze, her eyes revealing a subtle skepticism beneath her calm exterior. Jubilee's words were a facade, thinly veiling her attempt to position herself as morally superior.The sudden gasp from the
Leona couldn't help but smirk at Jubilee's infuriated expression. She knew Jubilee's facade was just that - a façade. Leona had a knack for seeing through people who pretended to be good when they weren't.Returning to her script as if she hadn't just gotten under Jubilee's skin, Leona displayed a calm demeanor that belied the brewing storm between them.Jubilee's fury burned hotter as she saw Leona engrossed in her script. This was the first time someone had ever dared to threaten her with Alex. Jubilee might have ignored people like Leona in the past, but seeing how smitten Alex was with her was a whole new level of concern. She realized she had to take care of Leona before things escalated any further, just as she had done with countless other women who took a liking to Alex.Turning to her manager, Jubilee's voice was firm, "Tell that irrelevant woman not to bother herself with people she has no business with. Focus on the audition at hand."Leona didn't react; she simply look
The pain in her voice was palpable, the authenticity of her emotions resonating through every word. Leona rocked back and forth, lost in the agony of her character's grief, as if attempting to comfort the child she held in her arms.Her expression shifted from grief to despair, her brow furrowing as she recounted memories that would never be made. "I will never see your smile, hear your laughter, or feel your warmth again. The world has been robbed of your light, and I am left in darkness."Leona's voice cracked, and her tears flowed freely, embodying the rawness of a mother's grief. The audience could feel the ache in her chest, the void left by an irreplaceable loss.In a heart-wrenching moment, Leona lifted her imaginary child higher, as if offering her to the heavens. "May you find peace beyond the pain, my dear. May your spirit soar above the cruelty of this world."The room was filled with the echoes of her sorrowful words, and her performance left an indelible mark on ever
"Leona, you got the role," the director announced, his voice carrying a weight that seemed to resonate throughout the room.Leona stood up with a shocked and confused look.Jubilee's confident facade shattered, her mouth agape, and her eyes wide with shock. The other actresses' congratulatory cheers died down abruptly, replaced by stunned silence.Leona's eyes welled up with a mixture of emotions swept over her—confusion , shock , and she also felt a a sense of accomplishment. She looked around the room, seeing the various reactions playing out on everyone's faces.Jubilee said with a cold smirk "Oh, this should be good. What's the twist?"Director smiled at her "Jubilee, your performance was truly captivating. You brought so much to the role." "Well, I worked really hard on it." she replied with confidence. "Absolutely, Jubilee. Your dedication shows." her manager added."And now, about Leona..." the director said and looked at Leona. Jubilee still couldn't believe they chose
