The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 2652

After a few days of rest, she was gearing up for the non-stop whirlwind of the press tour.

She was nervous at the fan meet-up, but as the roadshow loomed closer, her emotions were more of a mix of excitement and fear.

She was eager to see how audiences would react to the work she had poured her heart into over the past year, yet the fear of rejection was overwhelming.

This was her first leading role, the linchpin of the entire film. She dreaded the thought that the audience might not approve her performance.

Two nights before the roadshow kicked off, she found herself restless, tossing and turning in Balfour's arms, unable to find solace in sleep.

On yet another sleepless night, after a heavy sigh, Balfour flicked on the bedside lamp.

"Can't sleep, huh? Will you talk about it?" he murmured.

Ivy felt bad for keeping Balfour awake with her anxiety, but it was all too real, and she desperately needed to vent.

"I just don't know how to face the audience. Fans are different — they support me no matter what. But the general audience? I’m not sure. If this flops, I might never get another role again."
