Chapter: 333
But Cole was still reluctant to give up and refused to let Tyler off the hook. This prompted an impatient
Francis to bark, “What are you still doing there? The next scene is yours. Are you ready? You haven’t
even memorized your lines from the script. Hurry up and study it!”
Knowing that Francis was fast losing his patience, Cole didn’t dare to say anything more. He glared
venomously at Tyler, before storming off with a heavy heart.
In the back of the luxurious limousine, Cole savagely indulged in a handful of donuts, heedless of their
calorie content, using his voracious appetite to vent his frustration. Yet, his irritation was far from
assuaged, and he found himself utterly lacking in the patience required to read through the script.
“Damn it! These words are like watching paint dry. I’ll be asleep before I can get through them all!” he

In a fit of annoyance, he flung open the refrigerator and snatched out a box of chocolate pudding, only
to be admonished by his assistant with fearful eyes. “Cole, you really shouldn’t do that. You need to
keep an eye on your weight during filming.” ©
“Don’t worry about it. I’ll just have a pudding,” Cole replied, his tone dismissive as he gobbled up the
dessert in three quick bites.
As he replenished his energy, his anger began to subside, and he shifted his focus to his plans for the
future. But this time, his thoughts were not of Tyler, but rather of the stunning leading lady, Selene
Cicio.
Selene, a newcomer in the entertainment industry, came from a family with powerful connections.
According to his aunt, she was the daughter of the boss of Eleymond Airlines, but Selene had entered

She even wrote the story of the play that was being filmed, had it polished by a scriptwriter, and
invested in its production.
Donna had advised Cole to take advantage of this opportunity to get to know Selene.
As he thought about this, Cole couldn’t wait any longer and went to the lounge where Selene was.
As he stepped into the room, Cole adjusted the heavy metal chain in his pocket, trying to appear as
casual as possible.
Selene was sitting on the sofa, gazing out the window with a distant look in her eyes, lost in thought.
Cole cleared his throat, catching Selene’s attention. “Miss Cicio, I’m your partner,

He couldn’t help but notice her slim figure, which wasn’t his usual type.
Cole preferred women with curves and ample assets.
But, he thought to himself, it wouldn’t hurt to try something different, especially with her rich
background.
Selene withdrew her gaze from the window and glanced at the coffee Cole brought for her. “I don’t like
coffee,” she declared flatly.
Cole was taken aback by her blunt response.
“What?” he stammered, caught off guard.
Without any further explanation, Selene picked up the script and began reading it once more, leaving
Cole sitting there feeling foolish and uncertain of what to do next.
