I agreed and used my connections to build his career.
I thought he really loved me and wanted to spend the rest of his life with me.
But I was utterly awakened by reality that day.
Later, he suddenly became proactive, staying in the crew every day, spreading its feathers like a peacock all day.
I knew that the scene at the celebration party was actually Ian's expression of his true feelings.
Since he wanted to be with Julia in a legitimate way, I chose to fulfill him.
Ian chased after me and asked, "Do you have to treat Julia as an imaginary enemy?"
Exhausted, I replied, "Ian, don't pretend. Just go back together with her if you still love her."
Surprised by my straightforwardness, he started to deny it vehemently.
"You can vent your grievances back at home. There is really nothing between Julia and me. Why are you so agitated? I don't understand.
"I was just playing along with her at the party because you told me to cooperate with the organizer. I really don't know where I went wrong."
I raised an eyebrow at Ian, directly exposing him, "Do you remember what you said to her on the day the movie wrapped up?"
Ian was stunned and burst with anger and shame in a moment.
"So you eavesdropped on us? Morgan, how can you say you love me when you don't even trust me? Do you have to monitor me all the time?"
I found his excuses somewhat amusing.
His ability to make excuses was becoming more and more proficient.
Feeling a bit tired, I didn't bother to deal with him. I rubbed my temples and said, "I have already signed the divorce agreement. I'll take you to court if you don't agree."
Hearing this, Ian looked incredulous.
He immediately confessed, "Yes, I said those words, but it was for a rehearsal, and they were just lines! You're making a fuss about a divorce without understanding the facts. That's not fair to me!"
I was shaken by his words for a moment, doubting whether I had misunderstood him.
"Morgan, I will not divorce!"
Staring at me resolutely, Ian held my hand and asked softly, "When I wasn't famous, you said you'd help me win the Best Actor award. Are you going to give up now? Morgan, I only have you..."
Memories flashed through my mind, his sincere expression almost identical to that of the young man I had rescued from the fire.
It seemed that nothing had changed; he still had his passion, and we still needed to rely on each other to struggle in the entertainment industry.
