Three days later, Briony got a message from Lorna.

"Thank you for the photo album. Stewart has decided to go to Switzerland for treatment."

Briony was in the middle of Starlight Entertainment's weekly meeting when the message came in. She glanced at her phone but didn't reply.

When the meeting finally ended, she left the conference room and headed straight for her office.

Mary trailed after her.

Once inside, Mary closed the door and hurried over, eyes shining with anticipation. "Briony, have you heard from Mr. Ellsworth?"

Briony sat down at her desk and looked up at the young woman standing before her-a lively twenty-four-year-old whose expressive eyes were her greatest asset on screen. Today, those eyes were filled with the hopeful secrets of a girl nursing a crush.

"I haven't been in touch with him for a while," Briony said after a pause. "Haven't you tried reaching out?"

"I have!" Mary pouted. "He's not replying to my messages, and he won't pick up my calls. I'm at my wits' end."

"Sorry, I can't help you this time."
