“I'm here to support my future wife,” Ryan said through gritted teeth, forcing a smug smile. “By the way, didn’t

you claim you were married, Lily? So, where's this ‘perfect husband’ of yours? Why isn't he here? Maybe he

doesn’t care about you as much as you think. Or does he simply not love you?”

His smug tone and mocking expression made Mia's blood boil. Her hands clenched into fists as she resisted the

urge to slap him across the face. How dare he insult her idol like that? She huffed, stepping forward before Lily

could respond.

“Are you high on something, Ryan?” Mia sneered, making a tic gagging noise. “Or have you just stopped

looking at that ridiculous face of yours in the mirror? Maybe losing your company also made you lose your mind.”

Lily fought back a laugh, letting Mia take the lead. Mia's glare sharpened as she continued, “Letmake one

thing clear-my Lily’s husband is leagues above you. He's the best husband in the world. Handsome, incredibly

wealthy, kind, and hardworking. Do not dare to compare yourself to him, you pathetic excuse for a human

being.”

Lily chimed in, her tone calm but cutting, “Exactly. My husband lovesdeeply, and he works hard to manage

his successful company. Unlike you, he’s not wasting his tlurking around sets, trying to act like he has it all

together. You wouldn't understand what it’s like to have real responsibilities or be a real man.”

Ryan's face turned a deep shade of red, his fists tightening at his sides. He could feel the weight of their words

stabbing at his pride. Already overwhelmed by his failing company and mounting troubles, their taunts were like

salt rubbed into an open wound. Yet despite his anger, one question burned in his mind: Who was Lily's

husband?

He had no doubt that whoever the man was, he must be someone immensely powerful, someone who outranked

him in wealth and influence. The thought only deepened his frustration.

Rose, who had been seething quietly beside him, finally broke her silence. Her lips curled into a smug smile as

she said, “Elder sister, you might feel victorious now, but don’t get too comfortable. You may have caused

trouble for my fiancé’s company, but don’t forget-I have the Miller company. With its resources, | can support

him. Your little schemes won't work for long.”

Despite her confident tone, her hatred for Lily burned fiercely. Every fiber of her being wanted to lash out, to

scream, to tear Lily down. But with so many eyes watching, she had no choice but to maintain the pretense of

composure.

“Oh, the Miller company,” Lily said, her voice light but thoughtful, as if she’d just remembered something

important. She tilted her head, pretending to consider the weight of Rose’s words. “How could | ever forget about

the Miller company?”

Rose's smile grew wider, interpreting Lily’s reaction as a sign of weakness. See? she thought triumphantly. No

matter what you do, Lily, I'll always have the upper hand. Your plans will crumble before me.

As Rose considered taunting Lily further, she froze in confusion. Lily was smiling at her-calm, confident, and

unbothered. That smile sent a jolt of unease through her. Why wasn't Lily upset? Shouldn't she be panicking now

that her so-called plan was about to fail?

But then Lily spoke, her tone light and almost playful. “My dear little sister, thank you for bringing up the Miller

company. I'd nearly forgotten about it. But tell me, have you forgotten whose hard work and brainpower built

that company into what it is today?”

Rose’s eves widened in shock as realization struck her like a bolt of lightning. How could she have

overlooked such a crucial fact? The success of the Miller Corporation-the prestige it now boasted-was largely

thanks to Lily's relentless dedication and sharp business acumen during her twith the company.

A knot formed in her stomach. Lily knew the Miller Corporation inside and out. If she wanted, she could dismantle

it just as easily as she had built it. That mocking smile on Lily's face only made her panic grow. Rose opened her

mouth to respond, but before she could get a word out, the assistant director's voice interrupted.

“The set is ready!”

Lily's expression brightened as she looked at Rose. “Calong, little sister. It’s tfor our scene,” she said

with a wide grin. “This is going to be so much fun.”

Rose's face turned pale. Fun? For who? She dreaded shooting today’s scene. Her nerves heightened as they

walked toward the director, her heart pounding in her chest like a drum.

The director gathered the actresses and explained the scene in detail, emphasizing his vision for perfection.

Today, the focus was on Lily’s character, Stella, revealing her manipulative and psychotic nature. He offered

sfinal tips before letting them take their positions.

“Action!”

Rose, playing the nervous and timid Hannah, stepped into the scene. Her character was supposed to confront

her sister about whether she also harbored feelings for her boyfriend. But as the cameras rolled, Rose felt the

weight of the scene pressing down on her.

“S-sister...” Hannah stammered, trying to muster courage.

“Yes?” Lily, as Stella, responded coolly, not even glancing up from her laptop.

“I... | wanted to ask you about...”

Stella finally looked up, her gaze piercing. “Speak clearly, . Do you need something?”

“I... I wanted to ask... do you also love Lucas?” Rose's voice trembled as she delivered the line, her character's

anxiety mirroring her own.

Lily slowly closed her laptop, her expression soft but unnervingly calm. She studied Rose for a moment before

smiling. “Yes,” she said simply. “I love him.”

Rose took an instinctive step back, her shock genuine as she stammered, “B-but... but...

With a sigh, Lily leaned forward, her voice steady and persuasive. “Look, Hannah, I've been meaning to talk to

you about this. I think it’s best if you break up with Lucas.”

“No!” Rose yelled, her voice cracking under the pressure of the moment.

Lily raised an eyebrow, her tone shifting to one of quiet menace. “No?”

The energy in the scene shifted. Lily's intense aura filled the space, and her powerful gaze locked onto Rose. The

pressure was overwhelming, and Rose froze, her mind blank. She couldn't remember her lines.

“Cut!” the Director Younglled, frustration evident in his voice.

Rose muttered an apology, embarrassed, and quickly scanned her script again. But when the scene restarted,

the sthing happened.

“No?” Lily asked, her expression just as sharp and commanding.

“Sister... Sister, I...” Rose faltered again, unable to deliver her lines.

The cycle repeated. Take after take, Rose stumbled over her dialogue, her nerves betraying her. Sometimes she

forgot her lines entirely. Other times, her words cout jumbled. On a few occasions, she simply stood frozen,

unable to speak.

By the fifteenth take, frustration filled the air. Crew members exchanged irritated glances, and the director

sighed heavily. Rose’s repeated failures were holding up production, and it was clear to everyone that her nerves

had gotten the better of her. Meanwhile, Lily remained calm and composed, her performance flawless every

single time.
