Under the Veil I Rule novel Chapter 224

He'd always thought Elysia hated Finnian even more than he did, so he figured Elysia would be against Amara keeping Finnian's child. To his surprise, Elysia actually supported her.

But after thinking it over, he realized that women and men often saw things differently. Elysia’s friendship with Amara was purely platonic, while his feelings for Amara had turned into love. There was no way they could see eye to eye.

So he replied to Elysia with a simple "Okay," leaving it at that.

He put down his phone and kept replaying Amara's words in his mind, a swirl of bittersweet emotions churning inside him, leaving him feeling a bit lost.

He sat there, frozen in his room, deep into the night without moving an inch.

The next morning, the set was ready for shooting. Keith, the leading man in Whispers of Winter, was on point, nailing his scenes with hardly any retakes. It was a smooth day of work.

But the moment the cameras stopped rolling, he became a different person—quiet, with a cold demeanor. He seemed irritated if anyone spoke to him, and soon enough, people stopped trying to engage with him.

It was puzzling, especially considering how attentive he’d been to Amara at dinner yesterday. Everyone expected him to be glued to her side again today.

Yet today, Keith and Amara behaved like strangers. Even though they worked in the same space, they didn’t exchange a single word during breaks, as if they didn’t know each other at all.

Considering Keith's odd behavior today, everyone speculated that maybe they’d had a fight.
