The photo shoot and the opening ceremony for the film crew concluded late. According to the original plan, they didnât need to rush into filming that day.
Alan initially wanted the actors to go back to the hotel to rest and then have dinner together in the evening. However, Neal approached him and requested that they start shooting as planned that day.
Alan was surprised by his enthusiasm. He asked, âArenât you tired? Donât you need to rest for a bit?â
Neal stood tall, confident, and full of determination. âDirector, Iâm not tired. The production crews have high daily expenses. The longer we rent this equipment and venue, the more it costs. To save on expenses for the crew, Iâm ready to start shooting right away.â
His hard work and dedicated attitude made Alan very pleased. He couldnât help but look at Neal with a bit more admiration.
âAlright, letâs do as you say. Iâll have the staff notify all the actors that weâll start shooting today.â
Neal smiled upon hearing this. He promised, âThank you, Mr. Hawkins. Iâll give it my all.
âGoodâ
After watching Alan leave, Neal clenched his fists in excitement.
This was perfect! The director had agreed to start filming today. He had a chance to impress George.
He had to seize this opportunity and make sure his boss looked at him in a new light.
When Oliver received this news, he would have jumped up if his manager hadnât pressed him down in advance.
Despite being restrained, he continued to rant. âWhatâs wrong with that toasty? Does he love acting that much? The director said we could rest, and here he is acting like the perfect actor. Does he need a certificate or something?â
Robin quickly covered his mouth and pleaded, âGosh! Keep your voice down! There are people everywhere. What if someone hears you?â
Oliver slapped his hand away and arrogantly began to yell, âI wonât keep it down! I want him to know! Itâs ridiculous. Am I supposed to be afraid of him?â
Sitting beside them, Milly was getting a headache from the noise. She angrily shouted, âMr. Oliver, youâre so loud, and I couldnât focus on reading the script.â
Is this guy really an actor?
Heâs pretentious and has a bad temper. Itâs a wonder he hasnât suffered any physical harm yet.
As soon as she spoke, the previously arrogant Oliver instantly became dejected.
Even his voice carried a hint of grievance, saying. âFine, Iâll be quiet.â

Robin was speechless.
He rubbed his eyes vigorously, finding it hard to believe the person in front of him.

Is this the same artist I have managed for the past three years? Is he the same artist who would immediately respond. tenfold to anything I said? The one who feared nothing?
After contemplating for a while, he leaned close to Oliverâs ear and asked uncertainly, âDid you⦠Did she catch you killing a man?â
Oliver rolled his eyes and retorted, âCould she catch me doing that? This is ridiculous. Are you doubting my skills?â
Robin automatically chalked this up to Oliverâs usual cocky humour and didnât take it seriously. He asked, âThen why are you listening to everything she said?â
Not long ago, he strongly refused to act with her, and now this guy has stuck to her like glue.
Oliver raised his chin high, full of arrogance. He rebuked, âHmph! You donât deserve to know.â
Robin was speechless.
Milly overheard their conversation and paused her script reading. She glanced at Oliver, who remained glued to her side, and found it truly peculiar.
Why was he suddenly sticking close to her?
Moreover, she could sense that Oliver wasnât trying to take advantage of her. The look in his eyes was innocent and without a hint of malice. It even appeared as if he was simply submissive to her.
Milly laughed at herself when she thought about it. She must be crazy to think of the word âsubmissive.
However, she decided it was better to ask directly.
âMr. Oliver, can I talk to you for a moment?â
Oliver blinked and immediately leaned in with a flattering smile. âSure, Boss. Go ahead.â
Milly frowned at the way hesed her. She he
âMr. Oliver, just call me by my name. When you
call me your boss, Iâm worried that Iâll lose years of my life.â
In the entertainment industry, these unspoken ranks were highly valued. As a newcomer, being called âbossâ by a topâtier star like Oliver would surely earn her a lot of hate from his fans.
She didnât want to become famous through negative publicity.
Oliver widened his eyes and said carnestly, âYou calling me mister is what makes me lose years! And very much so at that!â
Milly was confused. What?
Is this some new online jargon? Why I couldnât understand it?
Ignoring her confusion, he continued, âNo problem. You call me mister and I call you boss. It balances our Nobody loses years.âââ

According to the Ghost Sectâs rules, the sect leader calling him respectfully would shorten his lifespan. According to the entertainment industryâs rules, him calling the sect leader her boss would shorten her lifespan. This way, energy conservation and equal exchange meant nobody was at a loss.
In the future, when a new sect leader takes over, she might even consider his past loyalty and wouldnât kill him too horribly.
Thinking this, Oliver knocked on his head, marvelling at his own brilliance. Tsk! 73k! Tsk! Iâm so smart.
Milly bit her lip. She felt like she was talking to a brick wall.
How did this guy manage to compete with Jonathan with his intelligence? Do fans like idots now?
She took a deep breath to suppress her frustration and asked, âMr. Oliver, Iâm just wondering why you are following me around.â
Ever since he suddenly decided to act today, he has been following her everywhere; he even took Joyâs spot and pushed her to the side.
Everyone around, including Robin, stared at Oliver, clearly curious about the answer.
With all eyes on him. Oliver said honestly and sincerely, âBecause I need to show my respect to you, Boss.â
Everyone questioned. Show respect?
âYes, as I said earlier, my things are your things, and your enemies are my enemies. Hurting you is hurting me. Iâm devoted to you, loyal, and willing to do anything for you.â
Milly couldnât hold back anymore. She twitched her mouth and raised a hand to stop his passionate self- proclamation. She said, âAlright, I donât think I need your respect.â
âHow could you not need it? You definitely need it! Very much so!â Oliver protested.
