Chapter 2324
“What’s going on with Zephir? Didn’t he always have good things to say about Daisie’s
acting?”
“Yes. Don’t you think he’s being unreasonably picky today?”
The crew members chattered quietly, wondering if Daisie had done something to offend
Zephir.
He finally moved to the next scene after dozens of retakes.
The person acting alongside Daisie looked bothered and was holding back the grievance.
Daisie was walking to her trailer when James called out to her. He walked over quickly and
asked, “What’s wrong with Gosling? Did you have a fight with him?”
Daisie didn’t reply.
James rolled up his sleeves. “I’m going to speak to him.”
Daisie held him back. “Don’t. It’s between the two of us.”

he can’t get you? You’re enemies now? That’s all he has?”
Daisie looked at him. “He’s the director, and we’re just actors. Even if there is animosity, we
still have to finish the shoot, right?”
James crossed his arms. “That man doesn’t deserve to be a director. You treated him like a
friend and didn’t have the heart to reject him, but him? Has he ever treated you as a
friend?”
She didn’t speak.
James continued. “Even if you can’t be friends, he should be professional. How could he
torture you with his position? You’re the one who has to deal with trouble for being too
nice.”
After that, he left.
Daisie looked down.
She never thought that Zephir would turn out this way. She had been under the impression
they used to be the best of friends, but in reality, people changed. 1
Nollace returned to the hotel and saw Daisie asleep on the couch. He frowned as he
removed his jacket and hung it on his arm. He took off his shoes and walked to the couch.
He then held out his hand to touch her face but paused when he noticed that she had been
crying.
He picked up her phone, found James‘ number, and saved it to his phone. He then texted
him.
[I’m Nollace. Did something happen to Daisie during the shoot today?] James soon replied,
and Nollace’s eyes grew dark after reading the text. Daisie bumped into him when she
turned around. She slowly opened her
eyes and sat

“You … You’re back.”
Nollace cupped her cheek and looked into her bloodshot eyes. “Were you crying?”
She paused, then wiped the corners of her eyes. “I was just too tired.”
“Did Zephir put you in a tough spot?”
She didn’t answer.
Nollace took a deep breath, leaned in close, and pressed his forehead to hers. “Daisie, I
don’t want to see you crying for another man, no matter the reason.”
Daisie looked away. “Nolly, I just don’t understand…
“Why do people change so quickly? Lisa in the past and Zephir now were both my friends,
but in the end, they no longer are.”
Nollace hugged her and kissed the top of her head. “Do you think it’s your fault?”
She shook her head.
Nollace whispered, “If you don’t think it’s your fault, there’s no need to be sad about it.
People change, and everyone’s mindset changes as time passes. You treat Zephir as a
friend, but that’s not what he wants. Once the line was crossed, everything changed.”
