Chapter 399 She Gave Up
Miley glanced outside at Kirk. Once she saw he had walked away, she lowered her voice and said to Marion, “I’m not making this up! I’ll show you the photos I took!”
At first, she just wanted to snap some pictures of Marion working so they could use them for future promotion. However, as she kept taking photos, Miley started feeling uneasy.
Several times during the shoot, while the photographer was explaining what needed adjustments, Kirk, although he did not come close, stood outside the crowd, gazing at Marion with inexplicable
tenderness.
At first, Miley thought her eyes were playing tricks on her. She shook her head, trying to push away her unreliable thoughts.
However, when the shoot ended, as she looked through several photos she had inadvertently captured on her phone, she noticed Kirk’s gaze towards Marion was oddly intense.
While speaking, Miley pulled out the photos she had taken and showed them to Marion. “See for yourself!”
Marion bit her cutlery, taking the phone somewhat skeptically.
In the photos, the photographer was explaining the shooting techniques to her while Kirk stood not far away, looking in their direction.
“What’s the issue here?” Marion asked, puzzled by the intensity of the gaze.
“No issues?” Miley felt questioned, so she swiped to show Marion the second photo.
In this one,
the photographer made Marion laugh unexpectedly.
Kirk stood beside her, his lips curled into a faint smile as he watched her.
Marion still looked at Miley with a puzzled expression. So, Miley gritted her teeth and showed Marion another photo.
This one was obvious. It was after the shoot, and everyone started leaving the studio. Marion looked at her phone while Kirk stood by the door, looking at her.
His brows were slightly furrowed, with a hint of tenderness.
Marion blinked. “Maybe you should read more poetry and less romance novels, Miley.”
To Marion, Kirk was just looking normally at her. Why did Miley insist on pushing the romantic angle?
At Marion’s obliviousness, Miley gave up.
It was not the first time Marion was this way. Sooner or later, she would figure it out.
Although Marion did not catch on to anything, Miley’s words did have some effect on her.
Chapter 399 She Gave Up
2/2
So much so that during the afternoon shoot, Marion seemed a bit off.
Even the director asked her to take a twenty–minute break to adjust her state. Otherwise, they could shoot until midnight and would not get any good footage.
Marion felt really guilty. She had never lagged behind like this before and did not expect to drag her feet so many times today.
Miley went to get her some water. Suddenly, a bottle of mineral water appeared in front of her. Thinking it was from Miley, Marion reached out to take it.
Only when she lifted her head did she see that it was Kirk.
Marion choked a bit, looking embarrassedly at Kirk. “Sorry to have troubled you.”
