Chapter 83

Finished

The following day on the set of Shades of Love, Lily sat quietly in a corner, focusing on her script. As she read, a

deep voice interrupted her concentration.

“Lily...

She glanced up to see Leon, the male lead of the , sitting down beside her. “Do you need something?” she

asked, her tone polite but curious.

“Uh, yes, actually.” He nodded, appearing slightly hesitant. “Well, my fiancée wants to meet you.”

“Your fiancée?” Lily repeated, surprised. “Why does she want to meet me?”

Leon chuckled, easing the tension. “She’s a big fan of your work. More specifically, she’s interested in someone

called LX”

At the mention of LX, Lily's interest was piqued. “LX?”

“Yes,” he confirmed. “At the opening ceremony, my fiancée, Mira, adored the dress you wore. She's been trying

to find out more about LX ever since. She figured you'd be the best person to talk to, so she'd really like to meet

you. Would you be willing to?”

ly smiled, sensing a potential opportunity to promote her LX designs. “Sure, I'd be happy to meet her.

letknow when and where, and I'll be there.”

Leon grinned, visibly relieved. “Thank you so much! I'll arrange everything and let you know.”

After chatting briefly about their upcoming scenes, Leon left to prepare for his shoot.

Left to her own devices, Lily reviewed her lines before heading to the makeup room to change into her costume.

The makeup artist worked quickly, leaving her alone once she was ready. Feeling bored, Lily began practicing her

lines when the door creaked open.

She turned to speak but froze mid-sentence. Her expression hardened. “You.... what are you doing here?”

Ryan stood at the doorway, a smirk playing on his lips. “You look stunning,” he said smoothly.

“That's not an answer to my question,” she snapped, crossing her arms defensively. “What are you doing here,

Ryan?”

He smiled, unfazed by her hostility, “Can’t a man visit his girlfriend?”

Lily rolled her eyes, her voice laced with disdain. “Oh, are you blind, or did | suddenly start looking like Rose? And

which part of I'm breaking up with you’ didn’t you understand?”

Ryan stepped closer, raising his hand as though to touch her face. Lily instinctively moved back, avoiding his

touch.

He frowned at her reaction, his lips pressing into a pout. “Lily, how many times do | have to tell you? I'm not

cheating on you. There's nothing betweenand Rose-it’s all just an act.”

“An act?” she scoffed. “If you expectto believe that, you're delusional.”

“I'll prove it,” he insisted, his tone desperate. “I'll break up with her, end all of this nonsense. Just don’t push

Lily's patience snapped. “And | don’t love you, Ryan! | want nothing to do with you. Stop this ridiculous

and leavealone!”

Ignoring the dark expression clouding his face, she turned and headed for the door. But before she could leave,

Ryan grabbed her wrist roughly and pinned her against the wall.

“What the hell are you doing?” Lily hissed, glaring at him with fiery determination. “Let go of me!”

She struggled against his grip, her voice sharp with fury, but Ryan held firm, his expression twisted with anger

and desperation

Ryan was furious. Never in his life had he encountered rejection-especially not from a girl. Women always melted

under his charm, but now, Lily stood before him with an icy stare, as if he were nothing more than

stranger.

“Shut up!” he barked, his voice sharp with frustration. “Lily, | am your boyfriend, and nothing is going to change

that. Do you understand me?”

His chest heaved with anger as he stepped closer. “You said you wanted to break up with me, but did | agree to

that? No! You are mine, Lily. My girlfriend. And nothing will change that.”

“Leavealone, Ryan!” Lily snapped, her voice trembling with a mix of fear and defiance.

His expression twisted with disbelief. “Why? Why are you doing this to me? I've been so good to you, and now

you're breaking my heart. Why, Lil

You're so beautiful... | just want to hold you, kiss you, be with you. Can't you see? Everything | do is for you!”

“Ryan, | said leave me!” she shouted, her voice breaking slightly.

“Why? Why are you pushingaway? There's nothing going on betweenand Rose! What do | have to do to

make you believe me?”

Lily’s lips curled into a bitter smile. “Believe you? There's nothing you can do, Ryan. And do you know why?

Because | don't care.”

Her words struck him like a slap to the face.

| don’t care if you're with Rose or anyone else. | don’t care about you anymore because | have someone in my

life-someone far better than you.”

Ryan's face contorted with rage. “What? You're cheating on me?”

Lily let out a cold, mocking laugh. “Cheating? Look in the mirror before accusing me. And for your information,

we're not even in a relationship anymore.”

“Who is he?” Ryan snarled, his grip on her wrist tightening. His eyes burned with fury. “Who is this man you think

is better than me?”

Lily met his gaze with unflinching confidence. “You wouldn't believeeven if | told you. But know this- he’s the

most incredible man I've ever met.”

Ryan let out a dry, bitter laugh before lunging forward and gripping her chin. His face hovered inches from hers

as he hissed, “Then letshow you how ‘amazing’ | can be.”

In a flash, Lily’s eyes widened with horror as she realized his intent. Without hesitation, she drove her knee

upward-hard-into his groin. As he doubled over in agony, she swiftly pulled a hairpin from her hair and

stabbed it into his left arm.

Ryan howled, clutching his bleeding arm as he sank to his knees, staring at her with shock and pain.

Lily stood tall, her chest rising and falling with ragged breaths. Her voice was low but venomous. “Take this final

warning, Ryan. Stay away from me. Stay within your limits. If you ever try to touchagain.

as your!

She leaned down slightly, her eyes locking onto his. “Next time, it won't be your arm I'm stabbing.

With one final, vicious stomp on his trembling fingers, Lily turned and strode out of the room, leaving Ryan

kneeling on the floor, clutching his wound and seething in his humiliation.
