The first day of shooting was abuzz with energy. The production team moved swiftly, ensuring every detail was perfect. From setting up lighting to adjusting the props, everyone was engrossed in their tasks. Amidst the hustle, many cast and crew members couldn’t help but glance toward the entrance, eagerly waiting for someone to arrive.

Ever since they had seen Lily’s audition tape, whispers of her talent and beauty had spread like wildfire. Her striking presence and incredible acting skills had left a lasting impression. Now, everyone was curious to meet her in person, to see if she truly lived up to the hype.

Inside the dressing area, Rose and Leon, the lead actors, were already in their costumes, ready for the first take. Meanwhile, Director Young busied himself with last–minute instructions to his assistant, fine–tuning the setup for the opening scene. His focus broke the moment Lily entered the room with Mia by her side.

All eyes turned to her.

Lily walked in gracefully, her simple yet elegant attire emphasizing her natural beauty. Without a hint of makeup, she radiated an effortless charm that seemed to light up the room. There was an air of poise about her–a quiet confidence that drew people in.

The room stilled, captivated by her presence. Even seasoned crew members found themselves glancing at her in awe, their admiration plain on their faces.

Rose, standing off to the side, clenched her fists tightly. Jealousy burned within her. Why are they all looking at her like she’s some goddess? What’s so special about her? She’s just a pretty face who knows how to manipulate people.

A bitter smile crept across her lips. Not for long. Once Dad’s plan unfolds, we’ll see how she handles it. Enjoy this fleeting spotlight, Lily. I’ll make sure you’re removed from this film before you even settle in.

Her thoughts were interrupted as Lily and Mia approached Director Young.

“Good morning, Director Young,” they greeted in unison.

Director Young greeted them warmly, his smile genuine. “Good morning! Lily, there’s not much for you to do today. You have a small introductory scene, so you can relax and take it easy for now.”

“Thank you, Director Young. I’ll be ready when needed,” Lily replied, her tone professional yet warm.

Director Young nodded before heading off to address another issue with his assistant.

As soon as he walked away, Rose seized the opportunity and made her way toward Lily. Mia, noticing her approach, let out a sarcastic snort.
