As they conversed, Harrison approached from the opposite direction.

He glanced at Rena respectfully, addressing her as Mrs. Fowler.

Wanting to keep their subtle connection discreet, Rena nodded subtly and followed Flora to the backstage dressing room.

Flora was astute and perceptive.

She thoughtfully poured a cup of tea for Rena, who sipped it graciously while Flora gazed out and commented, “That young man is quite handsome.

I’ve heard there are numerous women who desire to captivate him but he keeps his private Life well-guarded.”

Rena had heard similar rumors recently.

With a serene smile, she acknowledged Flora’s words.

Winking playfully, Flora added, “I believe he is quite smitten with you. His eyes have been fixed on you. If you truly have no interest, I might consider making a move.”

Before Flora could proceed, Rena interjected, “He’s only 24 years old.

How could you even think of pursuing him?”

Flora playfully touched her forehead and smiled wryly.

After all, she was already 42 years old.

Throughout the shooting, Rena observed several scenes featuring Harrison and Flora engaged in a competitive display of acting prowess.

Harrison proved to be remarkably talented, giving the impression of a seasoned professional.

Rena left before the work was over, and Harrison appeared slightly distracted.

Flora, who was usually composed, playfully nudged Harrison and remarked, “Mrs. Fowler is a family woman. You shouldn’t entertain any notions about her. Perhaps… I should entertain you tonight?”

Harrison blushed, taken aback by Flora’s teasing.

Covering her mouth, Flora chuckled. “Just kidding, of course. Rena wouldn’t agree to that either.”

Flora could discern that Rena held a special place in her heart for Harrison, perhaps due to Rena’s late first love, or maybe it was the purity that emanated from Harrison…

Amused by Flora’s playful demeanor, Harrison blushed, his heart racing.

After removing his makeup, Harrison made his way to the parking lot where he spotted a sleek red sports car. A slender woman with long, straight black hair emerged from the vehicle.

Approaching Harrison with an intense gaze, she softly said, “I’d like to talk to you.”

Harrison recognized the woman.

Her name was Aline Hanson, and she used to be the mistress of his uncle, Harold.

Closing the door, Harrison walked over and asked, “What do you want to talk to me about, Miss Hanson?”

Looking at Harrison’s young, handsome face, Aline found herself in a trance for a while. Finally, she muttered, “Wow, you really look like him.”

Harrison didn’t say anything in response.

They went to a nearby coffee shop, whose ambiance was very quiet and suitable for business negotiations.

Aline was thinner than before.

Her skin was so dry that it couldn’t be powdered, but she still tried to make herself appear charming to the 24-year-old man in front of her.

She flipped her hair and beamed, “You can only play a supporting role in Rena’s play. Join my company, and I’LL give you what you deserve.”

Harrison Looked at Aline.

Aline took out a contract from her bag and said, “If you sign with me, I will take you on for five years and give you the male lead role in two movies and two TV dramas. That’s excluding other variety shows, and you and the company will split the profits 50-50. What do you say?”

This was an amazing offer for newcomers.

But Harrison didn’t want money or fame.

He gently closed the document with his long, slender fingers and asked softly, “Besides what you’ve already mentioned, is there anything else, Miss Hanson? Perhaps some conditions that you left out of the contract?

Aline put her hand on the back of Harrison’s hand.

Harrison Lowered his eyes and then Looked up at Aline.

Aline muttered bluntly, “Yes. I also want you to be my lover.”

Withdrawing his hand, Harrison told Aline calmly, “I appreciate your favor, Miss Hanson. But I’m going to have to decline. I’m not interested.”

Feeling humiliated, Aline seethed with rage. She scoffed, “Do you have any idea how many young men Like you will kill for this sort of opportunity?”

However, Harrison began walking away without looking back.

He didn’t relish the idea of being a substitute. He knew that Aline only wanted him because he reminded her of his uncle.

Rena also thought that Harrison Looked so much like Harold.

However, Rena looked at him with gentle eyes, and she truly cherished his youth. Therefore, Rena was the one Harrison wanted to protect.

Maybe his secret love for Rena would fade away one day.

Maybe he would also get married and have children of his own, but he would always remember how he had loved such a wonderful person Like Rena.

He would always feel that warmth because of her.

As she watched Harrison walk away, Aline gritted her teeth.

She wanted to show off her power and influence in Duefron, but her connections were limited. Ruth, who she made famous, sided with Rena, and now Harrison refused her offer.

These people were so stupid.

Would Rena treat them well?

No way.

Before Christmas, the movie in which Rena invested wrapped production.

There were a lot of people attending the wrap party.

Rena invited Mark and the Fowler family.

Under the extravagant crystal lamps, there were countless beautiful women, and one of them was Flora. Although she was already over 40 years old, she was still stunning.

Mark walked over to Flora and handed her a bunch of flowers.
