“I believe she showed the most growth during this project, and seeing her earnestness and dedication to being a good actor really reminded me of when I began in the industry. I look forward to her work in the future and her appearance tonight.” Ray Cranston announced firmly. After taking a good look at the reporters, he continued walking in, ignoring their calls for a follow-up statement.

 

Smelling a story, the reporters continued calling out to Ray Cranston, but he ignored them and disappeared. Miffed, the reporters eagerly awaited more actors to come down.

 

More and more actors and other industry people came down, fancily dressed until finally, the male and female lead arrived, stepping out of a vehicle together. The main characters of were played by Jay King and Anna Lire. Jay was dressed in simple black slacks, a white t-shirt, and a blazer giving off a youthful air consistent with his character in the drama. Anna Lire on the other hand was dressed in an above-the-knee pink princess-style gown. It was crusted with crystals at the top and combined with her cute bob, it gave her a cute girl next door vibe. The two arrived hand in hand and stunned reporters with the intimacy they displayed on the carpet.

 

“Look at them, they’re wearing matching watches. Are you two a couple?” a sharp-eyed reporter spotted the fact that both Jay and Anna were wearing matching watches.

 

“Whoa, those are the limited couple-collection Valentine’s Day releases from Movado!”

 

“Wow, those watches cost over $10000 each and have to be ordered ahead of time! They must be going out with each other!”

Amidst the cheers and camera flashes, the two continued walking, occasionally stopping to pose for the cameras.

 

“Mr. King. Could you spare a moment and give us your thoughts about the drama you filmed? How was your experience?”

 

“Filming this drama was a great experience. My co-stars were all equally great and I have learned so much from them and the directors.” Jay King slickly replied. He had been in the industry for close to five years now and knew what to say to the reporters without giving away too much.

 

“Mr. King, out of all your female costars, who is the most beautiful of them all?"

 

“Naturally it’s Miss Anna. Her beauty and grace were unmatched while filming, and it allowed me to portray the love for her character to the best of my abilities while filming.” As he said those words, Jay King turned and smiled gently at Anna, causing her face to flush attractively. Viewing this scene, the reporters were driven into a frenzy and began taking more photos and asking more questions.

 

“Miss Lire, you look beautiful today! Who are you wearing? How do you feel about Jay saying you are the most beautiful woman on set? And what about those watches? Do they represent something more between the two of you?”

 

Anna Lire smiled charmingly for the cameras before responding, “I’ll have to thank Mr. King for the compliment but all my female co-stars are beautiful. This is a Louis Vuitton dress custom-made for the premiere. I was fortunate enough that the company provided it for me. As for the watches, they were used by our characters in the drama and the director kindly let us have them.”

 

As she effortlessly deflected the reporter's hidden question, one of them got fed up and directly asked.

 

“Miss Lire, how do you feel about your fellow female co-star Valentina Salazar? There were rumors that she caused delays while filming. What was your experience with her like?”

 

At the pointed question, Anna Lire continued smiling. She had heard all the rumors about Valentina, but she had not personally interacted with the girl at all. Although there was a brief delay in the filming, it did not affect her much as she had more time to focus on completing a different role she had. As she wasn’t one to speak badly about people in public, she shook her head and wanted to let the question pass when another reporter shouted.

 

“How do you feel about the fact that all the other co-stars have arrived and yet the third female lead has not? Don’t you find that disrespectful to your seniority?”

 

“Director Cranston even said that she was his favorite actor out of everyone during this project. He said she reminded him of his youth in the industry with her acting skill and improvement that she’s shown.” Another reporter added oil to the flames.

 

Hearing the words of the reporters, the faces of Jay King and Anna Lire quickly crumbled before they regained their professional smiles. The fact that the director stated he had a favorite actor to the press was an insult to their face, but his saying she reminded him of his youth due to her acting was worse. It meant he thought that she did a better job than them. Before the two could reply, they heard cheers further down the carpet and turned to look.

 

A tall, elegant woman strutted down the carpet. She was dressed in red, but instead of blending into the carpet, it seemed as if it was a train for her instead. As she walked closer to them, Anna could see the woman had a face that looked as if it was carved by the gods. Bright green eyes were curved into crescents and bright white teeth flashed as she smiled exposing cute dimples in her cheeks. As she turned and posed in various manners, her dress flared around as if she was dancing.

 

“Who is that?”

 

“Who is that woman?”

 

“Is she an actor as well or a guest celebrity?”

 

“Miss please, what’s your name?”

 

“Who are you, Miss?”

 

“Are you part of the cast?”

 

Different reporters called out trying to figure out the identity of the woman.

 

The woman turned to face the reporters and responded with a smile.

 

“Oh me? I’m Valentina Salazar, the third female lead. Sorry for my late entrance. It’s a pleasure to meet you all.” A soft, yet seductive voice came out as the woman looked around at the reporters with a bright smile.
