Jeffery nced at Ezekiel who seemed eager to get his sister back.


    "We can’t use any wrong approach, Ezekiel. Charging Robert with kidnapping will be a bad idea. Like he said, Ava has already bonded with him. If we snatch her with force, she will hate us forever."


    They were in a tight position. They finally found out that Ava was alive and close to them, yet she seemed so far away.


    Ezekiel sighed.


    "But that won’t stop me from investigating Robert and his family. He didn’t show you a picture of her as an adult because he doesn’t want us to know what she looks like. I will have that figured out, Father. Ava wille back home," he promised.

    The airport of Radiantia was swamped with fans and the press at the return of <i>The Sinner </i>casts who were returning from the movie tour.


    The movie had been released and everyone was going crazy about them, making the actors gain even more recognition and fanbase.


    The actors were guided into their designated car and they headed towards their separate destinations.


    "Happy to be back to Radiantia?" Kace asked Selene when she settled into the car while Ito sat at the front with Kace.


    "More than happy to be back," Selene replied, a huge smile on her face as she stared at the people who were requesting an autograph. "There are so many people," she mumbled under her breath.


    "That’s the perk thates with poprity, Selene," said Kace before he drove away.


    Selene nodded her head in agreement. She had been away from Radiantia for only two months but it already felt like years. Having to travel to other cities after 2-3 days had worn her out. The movie tour wasn’t as rxing as she’d earlier thought it would be. Rather, it was more stressful than she’d least expected it to be.


    Kace drove towards the mansion so that Selene could rx before he had to drive her to Klerene for her photoshoot.


    There were times when the Klerene photography crew had to travel to meet Selene in whichever city she was in to get her photoshoot done.


    After a few hours, Selene was at Dreamscape Entertainment, talking with her manager and some movie producers about the next movie they would like to star her in.


    Selene attempted to fight the urge to sleep as she read the script in her hands. It hadn’t been long since she arrived in Radiantia, and she was already nning her next movie.


    ’I’m so tired,’ she thought.


    The rest of the actors who would be ying assigned characters hadn’t arrived yet because of their busy schedules as well.


    All of a sudden, the door swooned open and a young man walked inside, wearing a simple shirt and ck jeans.


    "I’m so sorry I’mte, I got held up in traffic," the man replied.


    The producers nodded in understanding.


    Selene frowned slightly at the young man, finding him oddly familiar.


    "Ms. Selene, this is Kael rk. And Kael, this is Selene Jones," the producer introduced the both of them as they shook hands. "Kael will be acting as the male lead. This is his first movie debut," the producer added.


    "His first movie debut?" Selene asked, slightly shocked. After the introduction, she immediately recognized him from advertisements she had seen on TV a few days ago.


    "Yes, it will be my first movie debut. I will put in my hard work and not screw up, I promise," he joked.


    "Come on, you nailed it in the advertisements," the producerplimented.


    Kael only smiled at the producer’sment as they continued to wait for the other actors while the ones avable discussed the preparation of the movie further.


    Not long after, the rest arrived.


    Two hourster, the meeting was adjourned.


    Selene dragged her feet out of the meeting room, already dreaming about her bed. It was almost midnight and she hadn’t gotten a wink of sleep since the previous day.


    ’Can my bed just appear right here right now?’ She wondered.


    Most of the staff had already retired for the night, leaving the building almost empty.


    Selene sighted Kael talking with his manager, who nodded at what he said before leaving.


    ’Hisst name is rk, I wonder if he’s rted to the rk family,’ she wondered.


    Quickly, Selene pulled out her phone to research him.


    ’He is,’ she confirmed. ’I wonder if he would be willing to tell me why the Wace and rk family are in dispute?’


    Selene had tried getting information from Kace, but he wouldn’t spill anything.


    Kael nced at Selene for a brief second before leaving. Selene’s eyebrows furrowed slightly in confusion, not missing the flicker of disdain that shed through his gaze.
