Estrella adjusted her mood when she saw Pearl's puzzled look. She smiled and tried to hide her awkwardness. "Nothing, | accidentally dropped
something."
Silas, who was outside the glass door, didn't notice anything. He walked over to Pearl and put his arm around her shoulders. "I've been calling you
these days, Pearl. Why have you been ignoring me?" While talking, he didn't pay any attention to Estrella.
Pearl stepped back and removed his arm. "I've been busy."
"That's fine. | can visit you whenever I'm free. If you don't mind, | can cevery day." Silas flashed a charming smile, which attracted the attention
of the female photographers nearby.

Pearl felt helpless as Silas once again captivated everyone around him. "Okay, please don't disrupt the advertisement shoot."
"No, I'm not causing any trouble. I'm just here to see you." After that, Silas casually sat down on a nearby couch.
Pearl had never met someone so shameless. "So, you're not leaving?"
Silas crossed his legs. "Why are you in a rush to driveaway? I'm just here to see you. | won't bother you guys."
It seemed difficult to get rid of him, so Pearl simply ignored him. "Let's continue with the shoot."
However, Estrella was visibly distraught. Her performance suffered, with mistakes in her actions and expressions, even stumbling over her lines.
Concerned, Pearl asked, "Is something wrong, Esti? Are you feeling okay?"
Estrella remained silent.
Pearl suspected that it had something to do with the b*stard nearby. But she didn't want to expose Estrella's private issues in front of everyone, so
she pretended not to notice.
"It's alright, Miss Pearl." Estrella was sweating, and she appeared a bit nervous. Seeing Silas had thrown her off balance, but she couldn't escape or
hide while she was in the middle of the shoot.
Silas's presence made her feel extremely uneasy. She glanced at him several times, who sat on the couch playing games. Unexplainable emotions
overwhelmed her when she looked at him.

But they had broken up, and it would be pointless to keep bothering him. After all, he agreed to date her back then because she had been persistent.
"Let's stop here if you're not in the right mood. We can continue when you've sorted things out." It was the biggest compromise Pearl could make for
Estrella. She understood Estrella’s feelings and empathized with her.
"Thank you, Miss Pearl." Estrella nodded with gratitude.
Shooting while being distraught wouldn't work, so Estrella decided to stop pushing herself and headed to her dressing room to change into casual
clothes.
Rosalie also left after being informed that the shoot had been temporarily paused.
Now, only Pearl and Silas remained on the set. Although Silas appeared engrossed in his game, he had been keeping an eye on the shoot.
When he heard that they had paused the shoot, he had just finished his final round of the game. He stood up and approached Pearl with a playful
tone. "Why did you stop when | just got here, Pearl? Do you missso much that you want to go out with me?"
