Luka was left speechless at her firm response.
Just then, Alina strolled up, having overheard their conversation.
She couldn’t help but tease Luka, “Didn’t you always say Stella was your fan? You used to love giving her a hard time every day. And now you want her as your date? What changed?”
Luka blushed at her words. “Stella, don’t overthink it. I just prefer to avoid rumors. Bringing a married woman along seems safer.”

Stella simply smiled in response.
Alina gave him a meaningful look and smiled back, saying, “It’s good to hear that.”
After the day’s work, Luther brought together the key staff and actors. He announced, “We’re having a dinner for our wrap party, and everyone’s welcome to bring their partner. Plus, I’ve invited a special guest.”
Someone asked, “Who’s coming?”
“It’s a secret, but you’ll be excited to meet them, Luther replied playfully, keeping it a mystery.
This sparked a buzz of excited whispers and low cheers.
Luther called for quiet, then turned to Stella. “Thanks for your amazing work on the costumes. The fans absolutely loved the sneak peeks of the movie.”
As he finished, the room erupted into loud applause.
Luka watched Stella, his eyes filled with admiration.
Stella gave a polite bow to them and announced, “I’ll take you all out for dinner when the movie’s out.”
Her promise was met with a round of applause.

After parting ways with the film crew, Stella headed over to Miley’s place.
She hadn’t heard from Miley for the whole day and it left her feeling uneasy.
Standing at Miley’s door, she pressed the doorbell and waited. There was no answer.
“Miley, you in there?” Stella called out, knocking on the door. There was still no response.
Worried, Stella dialed Miley’s number. The phone seemed to ring endlessly. Just as she was about to hang up, it finally connected.
“Miley, where are you?” Stella blurted out, her voice tinged with concern.
“I landed a job last night. I’m on a work trip overseas now.”
Miley’s voice came through, sounding distant.
“Why didn’t you respond to my messages or calls?” Stella’s tone grew more serious.
