Signs of love
Charles' hands holding his knife and fork paused. He suddenly turned to stare at Maria .Maria was very nervous, her fingers tightly gripping the knife. Even her voice trembled slightly, "Maybe... I won't come back. The next person to enter this room will...will be her."She obviously meant Mia.Charles didn't say anything. He remained fixated on Maria, which brought a cold sweat to her palms due to his intense gaze.Possibly unable to bear the oppressive atmosphere, Maria wanted to get up as soon asshe had put down her knife and fork. Only then did Charles' low voice slowly start, "So, you're telling me that you are leaving?""No."Maria sat back down, inhaling forcefully, "I'm saying goodbye to you."Charles looked down at the food on the table, a faint smile appearing on his thin lips, "Maria, this will definitely make me paranoid whenever you cook."Every time she cooked, it either meant she was leaving or apologizing. No one could stand such meals!Maria forced a smile, which l

Big Boss
The next morning, Maria got up at 5:30. Fearing to wake Charles, she quietly put on her clothes. After freshening up in the bathroom, she put on a baseball cap and mask. Afterwards, she stood by the bed and watched Charles for a while, then left with her suitcase.The moment the door closed, Charles who was sleeping on the bed slowly opened his eyes.*********Luna saw that Maria was neatly dressed, and nodded in satisfaction, "Maria, you'll still be Mia’s assistant for this filming. When we need you, you can go on stage. Don't say anything else. Don't attract anyone's attention."Thinking about leaving Charles forever, Maria was still upset, "Fine, I understand."Luna and Mia exchanged a glance. Neither of them expected Maria to be so obedient.Mia tilted her head slightly, sizing Maria up, "Maria, you're not going to stir up trouble this time, are you?"Underneath the baseball cap, Maria’s amber eyes blinked, "As long as you don't purposely upset me, I will cooperate as agreed.""H

Shocked
Once Maria entered her room, she didn't leave any more. After she tidied up, she looked around. Aside from a bed, there was only a table in her room, a stark contrast from Mia’s luxurious suite.However, she didn't mind. All she needed was a table for her to write her papers.Sitting on the bed with her phone, she pondered for a bit before sending a message to Charles.It was simple, just three words. "I've arrived."This time, Charles didn't reply immediately. Maria waited for a while, but still didn't see a reply.She sighed, tossing the phone onto the bed, and began to look for materials on her laptop in frustration.Suddenly, her phone beeped twice. She eagerly grabbed her phone, only to find out some spam messages."Well, people change..."Maria pouted in annoyance. After she told Charles that she was going to switch places with Mia, he was ignoring her. He was so pragmatic!She threw her phone aside again, no longer checking it regardless of the sound it made.In the evening,

Alexander Caine
The man was dressed in a silver-white suit, with a pink shirt underneath. It made his skin look white and smooth, causing envy in the eyes of other women who were looking at him.However, his attire gave off a somewhat frivolous impression, making people feel like he was a playboy who was obsessed with women.Upon seeing Mia, the man curled up a more frivolous smile at the corner of his mouth, "Oh, isn't this the pianist Mia?"Director Grant put on a resigned smile. Alexander Caine had already seen the cast list earlier and knew that Mia was going to perform as the supporting actress. But he still pretended to be surprised, likely aiming to flirt with her.Alexander's reputation in the circle was bad. He especially liked to flirt with actresses. As an illegitimate child, not many people knew about his background. But most people in the circle knew who his father was, so they didn't dare to be disrespectful.Seeing his interest in Mia, Director Grant didn't say anything and deliberat

Pervert
Alexander's sudden appearance also surprisedLuna. If she had known that the second boss of this film was Smoo Media, she definitely wouldn't have let Mia accept this job.Unfortunately, it was too late. The only option left was to figure out a solution."How about..."Luna's eyeballs rolled around and she came up with an evil idea, "Mimi, doesn't Maria look a lot like you? Let Maria deal with him, or you can talk to him beforehand to see what he really wants. If he says he wants you, then let Maria go instead.""After all, even I can't tell you two apart once Maria puts on makeup, let alone him."Mia glared at her in frustration, "Do you think Maria will cooperate with me?""It's easy."Luna grabbed Mia’s hand and patted it to comfort her, "Just pour half a kilogram of liquor into her. She won't know anything. Or we can get her to take some kind of drug. You know..."Mia’s anxiety finally began to subside. As she thought more about Luna's idea, she found it to be an excellent solut

Main Investor
"Director Grant..."Her voice sounded flirtatious and seductive, immediately catching attention.Director Grant's face beamed as he turned to his companions, "This is the renowned pianist Mia. Our second lead. It took some effort to have her on board."The men, already aware of Mia’s reputation, showered her with flattery.One of them exclaimed, "What an honor to meet you, Mia! Your beauty surpasses all descriptions. You're a goddess!"Not knowing who the main investor was, Mia decided to play it safe, toasting each man in turn with her wine glass. She needed to make a good impression, regardless of whom it was.Her strategy was simple: win over the big boss and drive Alexander away.However, Director Grant, noticing her desperatepace, whispered, "Mia, slow down. The main investor hasn't arrived yet.""What?"Mia froze, "The main investor isn't here yet?"Just as Director Grant was about to respond, a group of people entered the room. The man leading the group was none other than Yo

Just for fun
It was as if Charles had walked straight into a battlefield when she met Alexander.She bit her lip hard, her gaze flickering nervously towards Alexander.Alexander, with a smirk that was not quite a smile, extended his hand to Charles. "Young Master Smith, I've long heard of your reputation. I didn't expect that Glory Group was also setting foot in the entertainment industry," he said.His words laced with a provocation as clear as the slightly raised eyebrows that accompanied it. His gaze on Charles was as if he was watching some amusing spectacle.His sarcastic tone, combined with his challenging gaze, was so discomforting that even DirectorGrant, who was standing nearby, felt uneasy.However, since Alexander was the heir to SmooMedia, he didn't dare to offend him and could only force a laugh.Mia, on the other hand, was so disgusted that she almost pulled Alexander away by his collar.Deep in thought, Charles looked at Alexander. His eyes became even more profound, and without

Charles is here
Charles, with a weighty glance, looked at Mia who had taken his arm. A meaningful smile tugged at the corner of his lips. "Of course, I should treat my wife well. Otherwise, if she feels bullied, she might look for comfort in the arms of another man. I wouldn't want to be betrayed, now would I?"Mia’s smile froze instantly, her contact-lenses eyes trembling slightly. She studied Charles' expression carefully, trying to discern if he was joking or if he knew something.But all she could read from Charles' face was a smile, as if his words were merely a joke."Ha...ha..."She laughed awkwardly, quickly averting her gaze and avoiding Charles' eyes. "Why, how could I ever do such a thing?""Right!"Alexander joined the conversation, a mocking smile crossed his face. "How could our respectable Mia ever fool around with a wild man?"He chuckled to himself. He was, after all, that 'wild man' who had taken Mia’s virginity.He couldn't help but chuckle to himself, feeling a sense of superior

A toast to you
Although they were at the entrance of the venue, people were still passing by, and Luna's face turned pale at Maria’s words."Shut up!"With one hand, Luna held Maria’s arm tightly, and with the other, she raised a glass of wine to Maria’s lips, "Do you want to drink it yourself, or would you prefer me to feed it to you?"Luna's fierce expression wasn't the kind that suggested she was going to feed Maria, it was more like she was going to force it down her throat!Maria was already aggravated. Not only did she have to act for Mia, but now she had to drink for her too. What was the point of Mia then?With her around, Mia got to skip all the hard work and still reap the benefits. Where on earth did such easy jobs exist?"Hmph..."While forcefully shaking off Luna's hand, Maria snorted, "Are you sure you want to make a scene here?"She was prepared to cause a ruckus, but whether Mia could withstand the fallout was another question.Seeing the defiant look in Maria’s eyes, Luna's temper

Alexander
Luna found herself staring at the glass, her heart heaving like a raging ocean.She had seen Charles and Maria together a couple of times before, be it at their house or on the set of advertising shoots. Charles' affection towards Maria, who was standing in for Mia at that time, was just as tender as it was now.Except for just a moment ago. Charles was with the real Mia. On the surface, he acted decently towards Mia, but he had her drink for him, and he hadn't shown any anger when others toasted, like he was doing now with her.Maria had only just taken over from Mia, and his attitude had already shifted.Although the change was subtle, Luna noticed.With this realization, she looked at Charles incredulously. Could it be... he had already figured out that Maria and Mia were not the same person?"What's the matter, Luna? Do I need to spoon-feed you?"Luna saw the sarcasm at the corner of Charles' mouth, hastily shook her head, and quickly picked up the glass. Gritting her teeth, she
