The person just shook their head. “It was anonymous. He paid with a bank transfer.”
At the mention of a bank transfer, Holden’s name flashed through Ariana’s mind.
But she shook the thought away almost immediately.
Holden couldn’t have sent it. Both she and Sadie were right here on the set.
If he had sent something, wouldn’t it be for his soon-to-be wife?
So, who was the mystery benefactor?
Ariana was puzzled, wondering if maybe a friend had sent a surprise gift.

encouraged everyone to dig into the feast.
Meanwhile, Sadie watched, a tight knot of envy forming in her stomach as Ariana basked in the crew’s
appreciation.
She just couldn’t get it. Everywhere Ariana went, she was a magnet for affection.
No matter how hard she tried to push her down, Ariana bounced back, always with a circle of friends by
her side.
Why did Ariana have it all?
Sadie’s eyes bore into them, her face shadowed with jealousy. But she took a deep breath and
reminded herself that she and Holden were going to get married. Soon, she would be the center of
attention, and Ariana would fade into the background.
With renewed purpose, Sadie walked over to the director. She raised her voice for everyone to hear.
“Director, any chance we could push the next scene to tomorrow? I need to take pre-wedding pics with
Mr. Fredrick. We’re getting married next month, and there’s a lot to do. Busy times, right?”

Miss Pierre! Here’s to a lifetime of happiness,” they said.
Seeing the shift in attention, Sadie’s face lit up. “Don’t forget, all of you are invited to the wedding next
month,” she reminded them.
As she sauntered off, she made a point to shoot a mocking look at Ariana.
Ariana felt resigned. Sadie might as well have shouted her intentions from the rooftop.
Once Sadie was gone, the buzz began. “Must be nice, right? Having someone influential in your corner
changes everything.”
“And with that attitude! But, hey, tying the knot with a Fredrick? That’s hitting the jackpot.”
