After the film crew had learned why the police took Sunna away, they realized that Susanna was beyond help derided to replace her 

They’re probably outing a new candidate for the role. Perhate the scenes that I shot aren’t needed anymore 

Le made a um at the intersection ahead, heading toward the film set. 

On the film set, the crew stepped aside, leaving the actors in the camera frame. Tyler sat sternly behind the monitor, his gaze fixed on the screen. 

An actor broke character and laughed, causing the scene to be reshot twice. 

Lenora found a spot next to the crew to watch. 

Tyler would step in during the filming to demonstrate if the actor’s portrayal or expressions were off. 

Once the entire scene was shot, the actors took a break. Some held their scripts, prepping for the next scene, while others went to the changing room. 

The crew was busy tidying up the set and organizing the props. 

Tyler sat in front of the monitor, review 

the scene they had just shot. 

Quietly, Lenora moved behind Tyler, her gaze falling upon the monitor. 

Hearing the shuilling behind him, Tyler looked over his shoulder and spotted Lenora, “You’re here.”

Lenora chuckled. “You were looking for me, Director Stone?” 

“Lenora, what do you think of this scene?” Tyler pointed at the monitor “Something feels off to me.”

Tyler had specifically taken the time to learn Lenora’s career history and review the projects that she had been a part of and found himself in admiration of her. 

“I’m still a novice- 

“Hey, don’t be so hard on yourself. I’ve seen your work and they’re quite good. Why else would I be asking you?” 

Seeing Tyler was sincerely asking for her opinion, Lenora said, “I’ll speak my mind then, Director Stone Please don’t laugh at me if I say something wrong 

So, this is the reason Director Stone is looking for me? Is he unsatisfied with the assistant directors opinions?

“No worries, go ahead and speak freely,” he reassured. 

Lenora’s gaze fell onto the monitor. She rewinded the scene a bit and drew circles around a figure on the screen with the mouse cursor. “Here, this young priest’s posture isn’t right. When he stops running, there should be fatigue in his forward–leaning upper body, but his stance during his abrupt stop suggested foot had lifted just in time to hold steady. His upper body should be leaning back, indicating the inertia Also here, from what I understand, this elder is a dominant character who likes to control everything. The shot of him sitting and looking down weakens his personality traits. An upward angle might work better here… 

Lenora pointed out a few areas she felt weren’t quite right. “Director Stone, I apologize if my comments seem blunt.” 

As Tyler listened, he nodded along, his hand on his chin in thought. He cast an approving glance at Leon and said, “I think you’re quite right. It’s all about the details.” 

After he finished speaking, he picked up the loudspeaker and shouted, “Don’t touch the set. Let’s redo the previous scene one more time!” 

The crew paused for a moment, then rearranged the props back to their original positions while the assistants went to call the actors. 

“Give me a second,” Tyler said, setting down his megaphone and heading outside. He gathered the actors and the cameraman together to discuss the scene. 

Once the discussion ended, they resumed filming. 

Having performed it once already, the actors were well–rehearsed, executing the scene flawlessly in a

Tyler returned to the monitor, replaying the scene from earlier once again. He gently nodded. “Good, this feels much better now.” 

With a smile, Lenora asked, “Director Stone, is there anything else you need?” 

She was thinking of leaving if there was nothing else. 

Tyler looked up and chuckled. “There is. Let’s head over there and have a chat.” 

“Okay,” Lenora responded, though she felt somewhat surprised inside. 

What else is there? Maybe they’re going to cut my scenes. 

Lenora settled down across from Tyler, as the assistant served them both a glass of water. 

She gestured for the assistant to place it on the table, then with a smile, she said, “Director Stone, is there something you need? Feel free to speak.” 

With a chuckle, Tyler said, “Then, I’ll just get straight to the point.” 

Sure.” 

“Ms. Wilkin, I hope you can continue with Melody’s role.” 

“Sure–Wait!” 

Bewildered, Lenora stared at Tyler. Have I misheard him? 

“Aren’t you cutting my scenes?” 

She was already prepared to have her scenes cut. After all, she never liked being under the spotlight. “Who said anything about cutting your scenes? Did Colton’s message cause a misunderstanding?” “No… he didn’t say anything. It was all in my head. Wasn’t the film crew recruiting an actress for Melody?” Tyler interlaced his fingers, saying, “I have indeed considered recruiting new actors, but as you know, filming requires scheduling. Many actors‘ schedules are jam–packed, so there aren’t many who can film immediately. Also, I wasn’t quite satisfied with the actors with available schedules. After much consideration, I thought it might be better if you give it a try.” 

Lenora immediately waved her hands. “I can’t, Director Stone, I can’t act. My acting might work as a stunt double where my face isn’t shown, but I really can’t handle a serious role.” 

“Don’t be quick to refuse,” he advised. “How do you know you can’t if you’ve never tried?” 

“I really can’t do it!” 

“I’ve seen your work. The actors‘ emotional portrayals are incredibly immersive. I’m sure you deserve credit for that.” 

“All the credit goes to the director. It has nothing to do with me.”

“All right, I’ll just come right out and say it. The other works of the directors you’ve collaborated with are quite average” 

Lenora didn’t know what to say 

The corner of her mouth twitched slightly. “Director None, you flatter me.” 

“Everything I said was the truth” 

Seeing Lenora’s resistance, Tyler begin to have a serious heart–to–heart talk with her. “Lenora, are you unwilling to be an actress?” 

Lenora hesitated for a moment before nodding. “I don’t like being the center of attention, with reporters and netizens watching my every move.” 

Tyler began to persuade. “Honestly, your worries are somewhat unnecessary. This is the least of your concerns, the team will handle such matters well. Do you know what the paparazzi’s goal is? Isn’t it just to make money? Whose money they make doesn’t really matter, right? So, look at the recent celebrities whose reputations have collapsed, which one of them was exposed by the paparazzi? They were all reported by someone else. So you see, these scandals are known to both the paparazzi and people in the industry, it’s just a tacit understanding. No one wants to offend others. As long as you abide by the law, what can the paparazzi or the netizens do to you? If they try to smear you, it’s just rage.” 

Lenora always felt that something was off, but she couldn’t quite put her finger on it. “But…” 

Tyler suggested, “How about this? Try acting a scene first. If it doesn’t work out, I won’t force you 

After a moment of hesitation, Lenora said, “Okay.”
