Chapter 1290
When Love Comes Late
While the crew gathered, Elizabeth positioned herself at the front row.
She couldnât help but notice the contented expression on Lutherâs face, sparking her curiosity about the discussion that had transpired in the lounge.
With a radiant and confident smile, Luther made a significant proclamation, saying, âBeginning today, Stella will take on the role of young Giselle, while Elizabeth will portray the older Giselle.
Our movie will embrace a dual-heroine dynamic.
â
Lutherâs announcement left the entire crew in stunned silence.
They exchanged uncertain glances but chose to withhold any objections they might have had.
However, Elizabethâs response was far from subtle; she reacted dramatically and challenged the decision.
âWhy? I donât agree with this!â
Luther fixed her with a stern gaze and issued a stern warning.
âYou had better accept this decision, or I can arrange for your return to Dorburn.
â
Elizabeth hesitated, her desire to argue further evident, but the intensity in Lutherâs eyes effectively silenced her.
Averting his gaze from Elizabeth, Luther issued a commanding order.
âLetâs start shooting.
Stella will be taking on the scenes depicting Giselle and Arthurâs first encounter.
The makeup artist will prepare Stella first.
â
The realization that Luther was deadly serious began to sink in among the crew.
They exchanged sympathetic glances with Elizabeth before dutifully dispersing to resume their assigned tasks.
Elizabeth remained rooted to the spot, grappling with her undeniable reluctance to accept the unfolding circumstances.

After Luther, she persisted in seeking an explanation.
âI need to understand why.
Stella isnât even an actress.
Why is she being assigned the same role as me? Furthermore, in the bathroom just now Stellaâ¦â
âEnough!â Luther abruptly interrupted her.
He then cast a discreet glance at the onlookers and continued in a hushed tone, âIf you donât want Elin to divulge the truth, I suggest you stay silent.
â
Elizabeth was rendered speechless by Lutherâs accusations.
Her eyes, ablaze with both anxiety and fury, betrayed her attempt to maintain composure.
With a deep inhale, she scoffed dismissively and departed.

Once securely inside the vehicle, Elizabeth couldnât hold back her rage any longer.
Her fists clenched, teeth gritted, she quivered with indignation.
âStella!â
Despite her meticulous efforts and personal sacrifices to outmaneuver Stella, Elizabeth hadnât anticipated Stellaâs resilience.
More infuriatingly, Stella had usurped the heroine role meant for Elizabeth.
Hatred filled Elizabethâs gaze as she contemplated her next move, her hands clenched into fists.
It was time to teach Stella a hard lesson.
She grabbed her phone, browsed through her address book, and found Leoâs number, lost in contemplation.
Her phoneâs ringtone interrupted her plotting.
It was her father, Kristian, calling.
A wave of revulsion swept over her as she answered with evident impatience, âWhat now?â
Kristianâs voice conveyed urgency.
âA courier package arrived from Seamarsh.
Whatâs our next step?â
