But Paloma Quinn doesn’t seem to be like that. She always remains calm and composed, keeping the appropriate manners and distance with him.
So in front of Paloma, he would always tease her with words, even making so flirtatious gestures.
He enjoyed watching Paloma’s ear tips turning shyly red, yet her face maintaining a serene expression.
At those monts, Rhys Kidd could see the most adorable side of Paloma Quinn.
Hearing Selena Kensington’s words, the assistant director understood.
He made an ’OK’ gesture and brought over the script that had been marked up multiple tis, adding this scene.
After speaking, Selena looked over at Sloane Hawthorne.
"That’s basically what it ans, okay?"
Sloane paused, "...I’ll give it another shot."
Selena nodded, then thought for a mont before asking, "Have you ever liked soone? Uh... like that feeling of a cautious crush..."
This question... was a bit beyond Sloane Hawthorne’s grasp.
She shook her head slightly.
Since childhood, she had relied on her brother Jonah Hawthorne, either learning dance or helping out with her brother at the orphanage.
Even when soone confessed to her at school, she would turn them down citing academics.
Sloane had never really thought about dating.
Selena pondered for a while "Hmm... then just imagine the person in your mind as the one who gave you flowers yesterday."
Sloane’s eyes widened in shock "No, sis, you misunderstood..."
Imagine her secret crush as Silas Sinclair?
The thought popped into her head and she imdiately brushed it off.
Never mind, she didn’t want to shorten her lifespan.
Besides, did she misunderstand sothing...
When Sterling Norwood heard Selena ntion the person who sent flowers, he raised his brow slightly.
Sent flowers?
Was it his cousin who sent them?
It’s rare that his cousin could co up with such a move...
But seeing Sloane’s expression at the mont, Sterling couldn’t help but feel a bit sympathetic towards Silas Sinclair.
Poor guy, the girl wasn’t interested in him at all.
Selena looked aningfully at Sloane, and under Sloane’s increasingly awkward gaze, she suddenly laughed "Just teasing you, gather your thoughts and start in a bit."
Sloane sighed in relief at Selena’s words.
She ntally marked this down against Silas Sinclair.
It almost affected her image in her sister’s eyes!
Afterwards, Selena led Sterling back to her seat.
Once she sat down, Selena turned to discuss the newly added shots with the assistant director.
And as Sterling sat down, he took out his phone to send a ssage to Silas Sinclair.
He sent his location over.
[Silas]: ?
Silas Sinclair sent over a question mark.
Why would Sterling Norwood be at the film set?
And he didn’t even invite him for a visit?!
Silas felt his cousin was really useless, only caring about getting a girlfriend without considering helping the family.
[Silas]: Why didn’t you call ?
Sterling rcilessly mocked him: I’m here to see my wife, what use would it be for you to co?
Silas was montarily speechless.
[Silas]: Can’t I see my future wife?
Silas expressed disdain for this cousin. Getting a wife has really made him bold.
[J]: Truly pitiful.
[J]: The girl doesn’t even like you.
[Silas]: ...Shut up!
Sotis Silas just wanted to delete Sterling from his contacts once and for all, but Sterling still had so use for now.
He could only grit his teeth slightly, waiting for the day when he wins over his future wife and can flaunt it in front of Sterling!
From an outsider’s perspective, these two commanding and influential figures were bickering childishly, neither willing to concede.
If anyone else saw them, they’d be shocked out of their wits.
Is this really the Empire’s youngest and coldest General?!
Is this really the proud and aloof head of the Empire’s most prestigious family?
They’re just two childish fools...
[Silas]: I’ve started reading that book the old man recomnded...
Sterling raised an eyebrow: How is it?
Then, the two started discussing the content of the book.
Seeing Sterling occasionally frown and then relax his eyebrows, and constantly typing on his phone.
Selena thought sothing was up.
"Who are you chatting with?"
She asked out of curiosity.
Sterling coughed lightly "Silas Sinclair."
Selena ’oh’-ed "Oh, it’s your cousin."
Then she turned her attention back to watching the performance in front of her.
Thus she missed out on the childish conversation between two super boss-level figures.
Once Selena turned away, Sterling resud replying to Silas.
[J]: Seeing how pitiful you are, I’ll recomnd you a few more books.
Sterling sent him so books like the one he’d read before, "Various Answers When Your Girlfriend Asks Questions," "One Hundred Ways to Please Your Wife"...
Silas accepted them all.
Seems like this cousin isn’t entirely useless after all...
Later, Selena had Sloane make so adjustnts, and after two or three takes, they finally got through the scene.
In the following days, Sterling accompanied Selena to the film set.
The crew went from being initially fearful and panicky to being used to it and even started praising in various ways.
Because on Sterling’s first day there, he saw the lunch provided.
Thanks to Selena, the crew’s als weren’t bad, much better than other film sets.
They even had occasional special treats.
But in Sterling’s eyes, these als weren’t up to Selena’s standards, so he made a call to have als delivered.
Later, when they saw the takeout boxes labeled ’Serenity Gardens’, the crew was stunned for a full minute.
"Is this... Serenity Gardens?"
"No way... Hey, pinch !"
And the person next to him really pinched him.
"Damn! It’s real!!!"
"Ahh, Patriarch Norwood is generous!!!"
Then everyone started celebrating.
They never expected to have the chance to eat food from Serenity Gardens!
And it wasn’t just one al. For the few days Sterling was there, during every break, staff from Serenity Gardens would deliver als.
He even instructed the Serenity Gardens staff to regularly deliver als to any film set Selena was working on in the future.
This bottomless pampering behavior made many female staff mbers in the crew truly envious.
Because of this, the crew’s initial fear of Sterling vanished completely.
Many people, benefiting from Selena, found opportunities to start praising the pair.
Especially with Lea Dutton, a senior fan of the Kensington-Norwood couple, around, many crew mbers beca fans of the couple.
Selena was both amused and exasperated when Lea ntioned this.
Finally, after causing enough commotion in the crew for a few days, Sterling was sent back to work by Selena.
