[Ugh, does Lucia deserve to be mentioned with Adrian? Adrian openly pursued Renee. Lucia is just a shameless homewrecker.]
[Adrian would never give roses to Lucia. She can wait for her punishment, haha.]
The date location was by the sea, with roses, wine, and a candlelit dinner. The romantic vibe was full-on. I wolfed down three bowls of rice.
Delicious.
Even though it was a live show, Adrian's gaze at me was filled with undisguised disdain.
Well, it made sense. A famous director didn't need to cooperate with someone as scandal-ridden as me.
I flicked my hair. "I know I'm young and beautiful, and, normally, you can't take your eyes off me. But adults need to learn self-control."
He immediately shifted his gaze away from me and stared intently at the table next to us.
Everyone knew Adrian liked Renee.
But unrequited love was a common tale.
Owen whispered something in Renee's ear, making her blush from her ears to her cheeks, unable to hide the smile in her eyes.
Under the table, their legs were touching, the atmosphere between them growing increasingly intimate.
The fans shipping them were ecstatic.
It was okay.
The sweeter they were now, the harder they fell later.
