Luka gazed at her with a teasing smirk.
“Mrs. Clark, you’re here so early. Don’t you have to make breakfast for your husband? Isn’t that what wealthy wives do?”
His voice dripped with mockery and sarcasm.
Stella was used to such situations and didn’t take offense.
She responded with a polite smile, “I arrived early today to get the costumes ready for the important scene. I won’t interrupt your script reading. See you Later.”
“Hold on a moment,” Luka called after her.

Stella was surprised by his request.
Luka asked impatiently, “Is it a problem for me to check out my costume beforehand? Don’t you have faith in your design? Otherwise, you might as well head home early and take care of your husband’s chores.”

Ashley, with her assistant following her, was on her way to the break room. As she passed the costume room, she saw Stella helping Luka with his outfit.
Their close interaction and Luka’s gentle look made Ashley feel even more upset.
She had hoped to use her moments with Luka in this film to grab the audience’s attention and boost her own fame.
