Chapter 276

Ophelia shot an annoyed glare at Rex, whose smug grin seemed to stretch to the sky.

The next moment, Rex stood upright like a tamed tiger, his well behaved appearance was quite a surprise.

The room was filled with familiar faces, and everyone knew exactly what kind of person Rex was. Not even the king himself could scare him, and no one managed to keep him in line. No one, except for one person. Even on set, if he didn't cooperate, just saying, "call Elia," would make him comply immediately.

It was like a child unwilling to take medicine when one threatened to call the doctor for a shot. In fact, the effect was even

better.

Sharon looped her arm through Ophelia's as they sat beside James and Kevin. Thomas opened a bottle of wine for Ophelia and passed it to her.

James raised his glass and said a few words. The group stood up to clink glasses, celebrating the successful months of filming.

The core crew members and a few important staff, totaling around a dozen people, made the private room lively and buzzing.

Rex flitted around like a social butterfly, eager to join in and play with whatever anyone was doing.

Ophelia was laughing and chatting, drinking and singing along with them. On the surface, she seemed her usual self, yet there was something different about her.

Taking advantage of a pause in their game when someone went to the restroom, Kevin leaned in and quietly asked, "Elia, are you feeling down today?"

"Not at all! I'm just here to have fun!" Ophelia gave a carefree smile, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her brown eyes reflected the bright lights of the room.

"Not telling me the truth? Your personality is too well-known to me. You've always kept things to yourself, and the more you keep inside, the happier you seem on the surface. Even with a wide smile, your eyes aren't truly smiling." Maybe it was because they'd seen her truly smile before, so it was easy to tell when her smile wasn't genuine.
