Chapter 216
Is this real life or just an act? Aurelia couldn’t help but admire Bonnie’s acting prowess.
The studio was packed with Avery’s fans for the filming. Avery was performing a scene from a popular drama series. The shot of him fighting back tears was so compelling that his fans started crying along with
him.
Avery’s talent as an actor never ceased to amaze the director and the audience alike. But only Aurelia knew that his pain was real. Seeing Bonnie, his first love, the woman he once had feelings for, was bound to stir up emotions.
From the back of the stage, Leah watched the scene unfold, a hint of admiration flashed across her beautiful eyes as she thought, “Avery was always the star, just like when they were kids. A born entertainer!” By the time the filming wrapped up, it was already nightfall. As Avery exited the studio, his fans mobbed him excitedly.
“Oh my God, Avery is so handsome.”
“Avery is definitely the most good–looking man in the entertainment industry.”
“I’m in love with Avery.”
“He’s my man. Back off, everyone!”
Avery smiled and greeted his fans before being escorted into his car by the crew.
Aurelia and Arnold waited for the fans to disperse before leaving. Once they were in the car, Aurelia received a message from Avery on WhatsApp: [I’m heading home. You guys enjoy yourselves.]
Aurelia was speechless Arnold gave her a charming smile, “I know a great place for dinner.”
They drove to the Royal Emerald Resort.
Inside the resort was a star–themed restaurant. Stepping into it felt like stepping into a galaxy.
The ceiling curved like a dome with a crescent moon hanging above them, and twinkling stars scattered across it. It was a sight straight out of a dream.
“Wow, this is beautiful!” Aurelia marveled. She had no idea such a fantastic restaurant existed in Elysium.
Reservations were a must due to the restaurant’s popularity. But tonight, Arnold had booked the entire place. After all, he owned it!
“I knew you’d love this place.” Arnold said, a soft smile playing on his lips.
Aurelia was taken aback, “The owner must be an artist.”
Arnold just gave her a mysterious smile and handed her the menu.
–
A quick glance at the menu made it clear why the place was not recommended more often it was pricey!
The dishes were named after cosmic phenomena: Gravitational Pull, Starlight Serenade…
“You pick. We have similar tastes. If you like it, I’m sure I will too.” Aurelia said.
Arnold chuckled, they were indeed a perfect match.
As they waited for their order, the waiter brought them some juice.
Aurelia stirred her juice, murmuring, “Avery was definitely affected by Bonnie today. Good thing his script was a tragedy, not comedy. It could have impacted his performance.”
Arnold smirked, “Actually, Director Edmond gave him a comedy script. I had it changed for him.”
Aurelia gave him a thumbs up, “You’re always reliable!”
