"You gotta take dinner plans seriously. Once you're back in Elysium, hitup." "We'll play it by ear," Marianne replied before hanging up, fully aware that Quentin was more trouble than he was worth.

Quentin was just sniffing around for a chance to cozy up to the Hawthorne family and nab an investment.

Paparazzi had the nose of a bloodhound when it cto celebrity gossip.

Hyvin’s gesture of dropping off a present at the set for Leah had been caught. By the next day, it was the hottest topic online.

"Hyvin gifts Avery's assistant a couple-style artifact." "Rumors of Hyvin dating Avery's assistant." The gossipmongers were having a field day.

"| feel like someone's stealing Avery's thunder?" "Maybe Avery's got a thing with the new makeup artist, and Leah got jealous and pretended to date Hyvin." "Didn’t Hyvin say in an interview he likes curvy and slightly chubby girls? He seemed to send Leah love signals from afar!" "What if Leah ditches Avery to be Hyvin’s assistant?" "I kinda ship Leah and Avery, though. They always look so matching." Onlookers were unfolding their guesses heatedly.

The speculation was rampant, imaginations running wild.

Leah, exasperated, rushed to post a clarification on her blog that she and Hyvin were just friends.

Hyvin, not to be left out, tweeted his side, admitting he did gift Leah an artifact he'd picked up abroad, a token for his close friends. He appreciated Leah's help in the past and confirmed they were nothing but buddies.

That's the entertainment industry. Any tiny things got twisted and misunderstood out of proportion.

It was hard to distinguish the truth and rumors in the showbiz.

At the Stirling Mansion.

Aurelia was indulging in the gossip of her brother and Leah. She wasn't worried about Hyvin stealing Avery's girl.

After all, Avery was a heartthrob with a killer charm.

Still, a little nudge wouldn't hurt. She grabbed her phone and sent Avery a Whatmessage.

[Bro, Leah's a catch. She is gorgeous, adorable, and sharp as a tack. Bet a dozen guys are after her. Keep your eyes peeled and don’t let her slip through your fingers.] Avery, fresh off the set, saw the message and could only respond with a speechless emoji.

Leah was at her desk, sorting through Avery's schedule for the week.

Marianne tiptoed over and whispered, "Leah, | reckon Hyvin's got a crush on you. Whenever he's filming in the scity, he makes it a point to see you." Leah shot her a warning glance. "Don’t start rumors, Marianne. We're in the showbiz. A casual joke can bectomorrow's headline." Marianne zipped her lips with her fingers. "Mum’s the word, promise. But you have to admit, Hyvin is handsas a rare gem in this industry and comes from a good family. If he's into you, would you consider it?" Leah was adamant. "No way. I'm not dating until I'm twenty-five. I'm all about the job right now." A sly twinkle in Marianne's eye, she pressed on, voice even lower, "Got a crush on an idol, huh?" Leah countered, "Seems like you're quite taken with Avery. Out of all the stars, why apply to be his makeup artist?" Marianne shrugged playfully. "Sure, I'm a fan. But that's a fan's adoration after all. Working as his makeup artist just means | get to be close to my idol." Marianne admired Avery, and she wanted to get to the bottom of his relationship with Leah. If they weren't secretly together, or if Leah's feelings were unrequited, Marianne was ready to throw her hat in the ring.

Fair guntil wedding bells ring. No one could call it homewrecking when it was just competing for the lover.
