Chapter 542 The Right Steps
Even though the sparks weren't particularly strong, Polly felt a sense of satisfaction with the progress.
A new script had emerged, offering Nolan the leading role in a film titled The Silent Whisper. The director had
personally reached out to Nolan, inviting him to take on the male lead. Polly, who had a relaxed attitude,
immediately instructed her team to get in touch with The Silent Whisper production about a possible
collaboration.
After working together on Froze, she was eager to team up with Nolan once more.
As an experienced actress, Polly assumed that securing a role wouldn't be overly challenging unless the director
had someone else in mind. However, it seemed that luck wasn't on her side this time.
The director's first choice for the female lead was Hattie.
Having been impressed by Hattie's performance in Firelight with Alaric, the director felt that Hattie was ideal for
the role in The Silent Whisper.
Polly's hopes of a second collaboration with Nolan were dashed.
Hattie, who had never acted in a film before, was thrilled when the director approached her, especially since she
would be starring alongside the renowned Nolan.

The Silent Whisper would tell the story of an unsuccessful painter who met her muse on the streets of Verdancia.
The painter was gentle and reserved, while her muse was a romantic wanderer.
This role was a new challenge for Nolan, and Hattie was also stepping into uncharted territory with this film.
Upon hearing about the success of The Lodge, Violeta felt happy for Polly.
Polly sent Violeta a Whatmessage, "I'm considering visiting the set in a few days. Where are you guys in
Jobus? Sendthe address."
Violeta replied, "Sounds great. It's been a while. We could also catch up over a meal."
Polly shared her disappointment with Violeta. "I was hoping to work with Nolan again, but unfortunately, | wasn't
selected. It's a bit disheartening, but I'll be in Jobus for a while to relax." Violeta asked, "What happened?"
Polly explained, "Nolan's new film has a different female lead. | tried for the role, but the director didn't think |
was right for it."
New film? Violeta's thoughts turned to The Silent Whisper.
This was the project that would earn Nolan his second Best Actor award.
Hattie was his co-star.
If Violeta remembered correctly, Hattie had been nominated for Best Actress for this film, although she didn't
win.
The director of The Silent Whisper was very skilled.
Violeta typed, "Don't be too discouraged. Even if you didn't get the part, you can always visit the set."
Polly hesitated. "But won't it seem like I'm being eager if | visit Nolan on set?"
Violeta responded, "That's a possibility. But if you don't go, the connection you made on The Lodge might fade
away.
"Polly, you need to realize
something: it's you who has feelings for Nolan, not the other way around. If you're afraid to take the initiative,
you might never have a chance with him."

After the message was sent, Polly didn't reply.
Violeta sighed. She wasn't trying to be harsh, just realistic.
If Polly's feelings remained unexpressed, they would stay just that feelings.
Violeta would offer advice, but she couldn't do everything for Polly.
If Polly didn't end up with Nolan, Violeta wouldn't regret it.

If Polly and Nolan did end up together, it would be the best outcome.
If not, Violeta would accept whatever cnext.
With no tto wait for Polly's reply, Violeta quickly touched up her makeup and handed her phone to Aster
before continuing with her shoot.
In the evening, after finishing work, Chad's assistant brought dinner.
When Violeta finally checked her phone, she saw Polly's response.
"Vio, you're right. I've been too proud.
It'swho likes him, not the other way around. Why should | wait for Nolan to make the first move? | need to
take action myself."
Violeta replied with a heart emoji.
She hadn't been mistaken about Polly.
She hoped Polly would take the right steps.
