Summer quickly came to her senses and apologetically moved aside to give him space, then glanced at him before walking away.
Spencer's expression softened slightly, stiffened by her swift departure, as he stood in place, the words "hello" stuck in his throat, a hint of disappointment rising in his heart.
The image flashed in his mind was the moment they locked eyes earlier... her eyes so beautiful, just like before, like a whirlpool that inevitably captivated.
Soon, the first scene began filming, Angel's scene.
The crew was all in position, and all the equipment was checked.
She entered in high heels, under the bright lights indoors, Angel walked towards the couch while making a phone call which never connected, yet she portrayed it with such finesse.
Her lines didn't feel memorized at all, delivered naturally.
The entire scene lasted three minutes, the room was utterly silent, all focus on her.
The director didn't call for a stop throughout.
Summer stood not far away, knowing Angel would nail it in one go, and indeed she did, keeping up the great performance until the director led the applause, and the room erupted in enthusiastic applause-
"Well done!"
"This is how acting should be! The emotions were spot on!"
"Truly Angel, excellent!"
Angel truly aced it.
She set a high standard from the start, everyone was thrilled, especially the director, who was simply beaming.
Elisa stood by Summer's side, glancing at Summer's profile, able to sense her nervousness and pressure.
Not far away, Spencer's gaze also fell on Summer's face, noticing her tension, his whole heart devoted to her.
