Jilted Bride 227

Chapter 227

"Seriously, even I don't act this infatuated," Rex said, breaking character in a second as he shot Thomas a sidelong glance and curled his lip.

Suddenly, his gaze caught a striking figure in the distance.

In the crowd, Ophelia stood out like a radiant beacon, effortlessly commanding attention.

"Ophelia! You finally came to see me!" Rex, like an overexcited giant puppy with admiration in his eyes, bolted toward her, practically wagging his invisible tail.

The injured makeup still on Rex's face created a stark contrast to his exuberant demeanor.

James, who had been preparing to shoot another take, suddenly found his camera devoid of a subject.

"Ophelia, you don't even know how amazing I've been lately," Rex said with the tone of someone begging for praise.

Ophelia, used to his antics, humored him with a few compliments, just enough to keep his confidence intact without inflating his ego.

Meanwhile, Sharon, who had been on camera, immediately stepped off the set as soon as she spotted Ophelia.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled as if filled with stardust.

"Hi, Elia..." she said softly.

Thomas took a deep breath, narrowly avoiding being stepped on the foot as Sharon made her way over.

'Is this really my wife? Why doesn't she ever look at me like that?' he thought.

Kevin also noticed Ophelia.

He rose from his seat under the director's canopy and approached her with a beaming smile.

"Elia, what brings you here today?" Kevin's demeanor had improved significantly lately.

He was working on a new script, and his overall health seemed rejuvenated. He looked years younger.

In no time, the key members of the production team had all gathered around Ophelia.

"I just came to see you all and brought some drinks," Ophelia said, handing the items she was carrying to Feona, who was standing behind Sharon. Feona began distributing them among the crew. Sharon clung to Ophelia's arm like a magnet, showing her usual clingy affection.
