When Sharon first entered the industry, she played a lot of supporting roles. But after refusing to follow the unspoken rules of showbiz, she struggled to find work for a long time and gradually faded into obscurity. She had hoped On a Snowy Day would be her big comeback, but then the scandal hit.

With the movie pulled from theaters, the only romance film left was Sprout, starring Emily and Rex. Despite being widely criticized and having such a low rating that it didn't even show up on some platforms, the movie raked in huge box office numbers. Emily became the biggest beneficiary, suddenly thrust into the spotlight and even earning the title of "National First Crush." It was a career-defining moment for her.

But Ophelia knew Sharon had been wronged. Not long after the scandal, Sharon tragically took her own life due to depression, and it wasn't until years later that her assistant, wracked with guilt, finally revealed the truth. But by then, it was too late. And the one who framed her was Sungate Entertainment.

Ophelia was lost in thought when suddenly a large hand cupped her head and turned her to face him. "Is James better- looking than me?" Kenneth asked, his tone slightly possessive.

Ophelia blinked in confusion. Kenneth had completely misunderstood-she wasn't even looking at James, she was focused on Sharon.

Suddenly, it all clicked. She glanced at Kenneth, who had just taken off his mask, and asked, "Wait... so that's why you picked an animated movie, huh?"

Kenneth's expression confirmed her suspicions. His look seemed to say: What do you think? You think I'd let you spend two hours staring at another man? Ophelia spread her arms and shook her head helplessly.

As the lights in the theater dimmed, the movie began. Kenneth had specifically chosen seats in the back row, which had been empty when he bought the tickets. But shortly after the movie started, a young couple with a kid entered and sat right next to them. Kenneth had intended to do something more intimate in the back row, but he didn't expect someone else to ruin his chance. He glanced at Ophelia and ended up locking eyes with the little boy beside them, who seemed to be wondering, 'Why are there two grown-ups here without a kid? Kenneth instantly regretted choosing an animated movie.

He spent most of the movie with a sour expression, occasionally eating the popcorn and snacks that Ophelia handed him. Meanwhile, Ophelia, watching a movie in a theater for the first time, was fully engrossed.

To her surprise, the animated movie wasn't bad at all. In fact, it had a great message, with strong moral values and a lot of positivity for kids-much more enjoyable than some of the trashy romance movies she'd seen before.

Ophelia was absorbed in the movie, while Kenneth was completely absorbed in her. When the movie ended, Ophelia wasn't ready to leave. "Can we watch another one, please?" Her eyes sparkled with excitement, and she looked at him with so much hope.
