Chapter 1441 - 1435: As If Giving Her His Heart (Part 2)
Luo Yiren was stunned upon hearing that Chloe Winston had returned to filming, and that Constantine Stewart went to visit her on set. She quickly stood up, grabbed his phone, and the more she looked at it, the uglier her expression became. She said coldly, "Isn’t Chloe dating Charles Taylor? Cheating like this, and no one criticizes her?"
"I tried to get the internet trolls to seize on this point and attack her, but all unfavorable comments were suppressed." The account was banned, causing significant losses for the trolls. Rumors circulated in the industry that Chloe had powerful backing, and attacking her was akin to courting death.
Brother Yu was anxious internally. Luo Yiren rose to fame by being tied to Mr. Stewart, and even got the brand endorsement in Paris through Countess. His stable position as the Gold Medal agent at Starshine Media was also because of Luo Yiren. Now, with Constantine Stewart pursuing Chloe Winston, it threatened to overturn everything, putting both his and Luo Yiren’s status in jeopardy.
With the company’s year-end personnel changes approaching, he still wanted to run for the position of vice president.
"We’ll return to the country immediately. You should continue visiting Mr. Stewart. It doesn’t need to be frequent; an ambiguous scandal every ten days or half a month should stabilize our position." Brother Yu quickly strategized.
Luo Yiren nodded. She never truly understood Constantine Stewart. Although he was somewhat gentle with her over the past half year, there was an aura of arrogance and ruthless methods around this man of privilege, making her not dare to act impudently in front of him.
Ever since Constantine Stewart took back his secondary card, Luo Yiren hadn’t seen him for months.
"I’ll have a word with the Countess." Luo Yiren gritted her teeth. Even if Constantine wanted to dump her, she intended to extract benefits from his mother with her ex-girlfriend status.
"Brother Yu, I also want to join the drama Chloe is in. If Constantine frequently visits the set, being part of the crew would be better for creating scandals." Luo Yiren was still unwilling to let it go.
Brother Yu nodded and said, "I’ll contact the crew and inquire."

With Chloe Winston returning to filming and Constantine Stewart coming back to the country, the two of them suddenly became the focus of numerous headlines and traffic.
Chloe initially planned to stay at a hotel near the film city for easy access to morning shoots, but after Constantine returned, she changed plans, spending hours commuting to stay at the Spring Prosperity Garden. Luckily, it was September, with long days allowing her to get up early for shooting.
Director Faust adjusted her shooting schedule to midday and afternoon as she returned home each day.
Mary’s early scenes weren’t extensive. The first ten episodes depicted the male lead’s rise and his romance with childhood sweetheart. In the tenth episode, the male lead truly encounters opportunity and meets strong figures, the most breathtaking being Chloe’s character, Mary.
In a red dress, bearing a tragic love story, she practices the ruthless path with exquisite skills, always traveling alone, identified only by an antique copper bell at her waist.
Chloe’s first scene appeared in an abandoned village filled with crows.
A run-down village with gray walls and blue tiles, all darkened. The male lead, pursued for seven days and nights, sat at the village entrance roasting bird meat, pondering that the next attack would surely mean his death, with his body consumed by crows, leaving nowhere to be buried.
The destitute male lead laughed bitterly, roasting sparrow meat to a fragrant aroma. As the breeze blew, a woman in red appeared, with hair cascading like a waterfall, her bell jingling crisply.
The young man was stunned by her beauty, impulsively inviting her to eat meat.
The extremely beautiful yet cold woman looked at the roast in his hand, sat down silently, her movements as smooth as flowing clouds.
Before the roast was finished, danger arrived.
The young man, like a fierce wolf cub, drew his sword, only to discover the powerful cultivators pursuing him fall, heads severed.
The young man turned back, seeing the woman in red like blood, her hair like raven feathers, and she spoke calmly, "I follow the path of heartlessness, would you join my sect?"
"Cut." The director called the scene, awakening everyone from a dream, with eyes on Chloe glowing intensely. Chloe’s beauty alone carried the entire drama. When she appeared in that red dress, everyone’s breathing softened.
Especially the male lead, Emilio Greenwood, who was most affected. If not for the director’s stop, he almost blurted out "I do."
As the son of the largest investor, Emilio couldn’t help but seek his father to give Chloe more scenes, change the script, as he wanted a wife like her, joining the path of heartlessness. Didn’t the aunt end up happy with Guo’er in the end?
Emilio thought wistfully.
"Emilio, why are you daydreaming? Your last expression was too blank, completely overshadowed by Chloe. Your expression was wrong, did you forget your lines again?" Director Faust smacked Emilio on the head.
Emilio covered his head and complained, "Director, Chloe is too beautiful, you can’t blame me. No matter who you swap in, they wouldn’t perform better than me."
Young and a celebrity offspring, Emilio’s lively and nonchalant nature matched his role closely, making him well-liked among the crew. His words sparked a roar of laughter.
But after the laughter, everyone agreed. It wasn’t just her beauty; Chloe’s acting was truly on point, exuding an unearthly, loveless aloofness. Emilio being overshadowed was understandable.
"Hone your acting skills, stop making excuses. Is being good-looking a mistake?" Director Faust laughed, scolded Emilio again, and told him to adjust his state before reshooting.
Fortunately, Emilio had good intuition, and the second take passed quickly.
From then on, the character of Mary officially debuted. The director, watching the footage, felt delighted. Chloe’s performance in the role was astonishing, even outshining the female lead at times. They really struck gold with her!
