The banquet hall was brimming with energy as cast members, producers, investors, and their friends and families mingled over food and drinks. The atmosphere was relaxed yet lively, with conversations and laughter filling the air.

When Lily and Mia entered the hall, Director Young promptly noticed them and beckoned them over. He graciously introduced the pair to various attendees, ensuring they felt included. Lily greeted everyone with poise and began engaging in polite conversation, making an effort to connect with those around her.

Meanwhile, from a corner of the room, Rose and Nathan watched the scene unfold, their expressions tinged with disdain. Rose had invited Ryan to accompany her tonight, but he was unable to attend due to work commitments. As the two whispered to each other, the chatter in the hall shifted, and heads turned toward the entrance.

The arrival of one of the event’s most esteemed guests, Mr. Morgan, was met with much excitement. Not only was he a prominent shareholder in the film, but he was also the father of the two lead actresses. Director Young immediately approached him with a warm smile.

“Thank you so much, Mr. Morgan, for attending my birthday banquet,” Director Young said enthusiastically.

“Happy birthday, Director Young,” Mr. Morgan replied with a hearty laugh. Rose’s face lit up as she moved toward her father.

“Rose and Lily are under your guidance, Director Young,” Mr. Morgan said proudly. “I couldn’t miss this

occasion.”

“You’re too kind, Mr. Morgan,” Director Young responded with a chuckle. “But truthfully, your daughters are so talented they hardly need my guidance.”

Producer Hudson quickly offered Mr. Morgan a seat near his daughters. “Please, Mr. Morgan, join us here,” he said, gesturing to a spot between Rose and Lily. With a nod, Mr. Morgan took his place, his expression softening as he looked at his daughters.

“Your daughters are not only beautiful but incredibly talented,” Producer Hudson remarked with admiration.

“Indeed,” Director Young added. “Lily, your eldest, is truly exceptional.”

Mr. Morgan’s eyes glimmered with pride. “You’re absolutely right. Both Lily and Rose are my treasures.” “Dad,” Rose chimed in, affectionately clutching her father’s arm as she cast a charming smile at those around them. Lily, on the other hand, maintained her composed demeanor, nodding politely.

“You’ve seen my performances, but my elder sister is even more skilled than I am,” Rose said, her voice filled with feigned humility. “Everything I know, I’ve learned from her.”

Mia, observing this interaction, inwardly rolled her eyes. She couldn’t help but think, What a facade this family puts up.

Rose seized the opportunity, standing up with a glass of
