The first day of shooting was abuzz with energy. The production team moved swiftly, ensuring every detail was perfect. From setting up lighting to adjusting the props, everyone was engrossed in their tasks. Amidst the hustle, many cast and crew members couldn't help but glance toward the entrance, eagerly waiting for someone to arrive.

Ever since they had seen Lily's audition tape, whispers of her talent and beauty had spread like wildfire. Her striking presence and incredible acting skills had left a lasting impression. Now, everyone was curious to meet her in person, to see if she truly lived up to the hype.

Inside the dressing area, Rose and Leon, the lead actors, were already in their costumes, ready for the first take. Meanwhile, Director Young busied himself with last-minute instructions to his assistant, fine-tuning the setup for the opening scene. His focus broke the moment Lily entered the room with Mia by her side.

All eyes turned to her.

Lily walked in gracefully, her simple yet elegant attire emphasizing her natural beauty. Without a hint of makeup, she radiated an effortless charm that seemed to light up the room. There was an air of poise about her-a quiet confidence that drew people in.

The room stilled, captivated by her presence. Even seasoned crew members found themselves glancing at her in awe, their admiration plain on their faces.

Rose, standing off to the side, clenched her fists tightly. Jealousy burned within her. Why are they all looking at her like she's some goddess? What's so special about her? She's just a pretty face who knows how to manipulate people.

A bitter smile crept across her lips. Not for long. Once Dad's plan unfolds, we'll see how she handles it. Enjoy this fleeting spotlight, Lily. I'll make sure you're removed from this film before you even settle in.

Her thoughts were interrupted as Lily and Mia approached Director Young.

"Good morning, Director Young," they greeted in unison.

Director Young greeted them warmly, his smile genuine. "Good morning! Lily, there's not much for you to do today. You have a small introductory scene, so you can relax and take it easy for now."

"Thank you, Director Young. I'll be ready when needed," Lily replied, her tone professional yet warm.

Director Young nodded before heading off to address another issue with his assistant.

As soon as he walked away, Rose seized the opportunity and made her way toward Lily. Mia, noticing her approach, let out a sarcastic snort.

"Here comes your so-called beloved sister," Mia muttered under her breath, her expression laced with

disdain.

Rose flinched at the jab but plastered on a nervous smile as she addressed Lily. "Elder Sister..." she said, her

tone soft and hesitant.

Mia, quick to intercept, gave her a saccharine smile. “Miss Rose, is there something you need?"

Rose turned to Mia, forcing politeness into her voice. "Hello, Miss Mia. I was hoping to speak with my elder sister privately."

Mia's eyes sparkled with amusement, though her tone dripped with sarcasm. "Elder sister? Funny, I don't recall you calling her that yesterday."

The color drained from Rose's face, her nerves betraying her. Panic flickered in her eyes. Did this woman tell Mia everything? How much does she know?

Feigning ignorance, Rose tilted her head, her voice tinged with confusion. "Miss Mia, I'm not sure what you're implying. What are you talking about?"

Mia's smile turned cold. "Oh, don't play coy with me, Miss Rome. You know exactly what I mean. But if you insist on pretending, let me make something very clear."

Her voice sharpened, each word landing like a blow. "My artist isn't some cheap thief who steals credit for other people's hard work. And instead of showing gratitude, you have the audacity to insult her? Let me tell you this-such behavior won't be tolerated."

Rose's composure wavered, her fake smile barely holding as Mia's words struck their mark.

Mia's sharp words landed like a slap across Rose's face. Her fingers curled into tight fists as she struggled to keep her temper in check. Taking a deep breath, she forced herself to maintain a calm facade.

"Elder Sister... I'm sorry," Rose said, her voice soft and apologetic, though her eyes betrayed her insincerity.

Reaching for Lily's hand, she continued, "I really regret what happened yesterday.

I was angry and said things I didn't mean. Please forgive me."

Her tone dripped with fake remorse, but the thoughts running through her mind were far from sincere. I need to stay close to this woman if Dad's plan is going to work. For now, I have to act nice.

Before Lily could respond, Mia stepped forward, brushing off Rose's hand and pulling Lily aside. "Lily, let's go. Don't waste your time on people who aren't worth it. You need to get ready for your scene."

With that, Mia firmly led Lily toward the dressing room.

Left standing there, Rose's polite expression twisted into a scowl. Her nails dug into her palms as rage simmered beneath her composed exterior. How dare you ignore me, Lily? Just wait. Your days here are numbered.

"Rose, your scene is ready, her manager, Nathan, called out.

Turning on her heel, Rose plastered on a bright smile and strode toward the set, her demeanor once again polished and professional

In the dressing room, Mia let out an exasperated sigh. "Just looking at her smug face makes my stomach

turn.

She handed Lily a neatly folded costume. "Here's your dress. Go change and let's get you ready for the shot." Lily nodded and headed to the changing area. When she emerged dressed for her role, the makeup artist

took over.

The artist paused, admiring Lily's features. "Miss Lily, you're stunning," she said sincerely.

Having worked with countless celebrities, the makeup artist rarely encountered such natural beauty. Lily's

flawless skin and delicate features made her work almost effortless.

"Thank you," Lily replied with a polite smile.

Once her makeup was finished, Lily stepped out to join Mia. They found a quiet corner to watch Rose's performance on set. Most of the day's schedule focused on the lead couple's romantic storyline, with a small introduction scene reserved for Lily.

After Leon and Rose finished their sequence, Director Young turned his attention to the next setup.

"Lily, you're up," Director Young called out..noveldrama

Taking a deep breath, Lily rose and walked to the set. Her role in this scene was brief but pivotal- introducing her character as the main lead's sister and a successful CEO of a major corporation.

When the cameras rolled, Lily delivered her lines with precision and grace. Her natural charisma shone through, and the entire crew couldn't help but be impressed by her poise.

Director Young clapped his hands together as the scene wrapped up. "Perfect! That's a wrap for today," he announced, his voice ringing with satisfaction.

As the team began packing up for the day, Director Young suddenly raised his voice. "Everyone, please hold on for a moment!"

The crew turned their attention to him, curious.

"Today is a special day-it's my birthday," he revealed with a grin. "And since it's also the first day of shooting, I'd like to invite all of you to a banquet this evening. I hope you'll join me in celebrating."

The team responded with cheers and warm birthday wishes. Excitement buzzed in the air as they wrapped up their tasks and headed out, already anticipating the evening's celebration,
