Aurora let out a surprised gasp. She frowned. Why was Everett suddenly joining the MV shoot? Was he just bored?
Or… was he using this as another excuse to get close to her?
Just thinking about it made her face burn. "Why? I mean… Everett's a busy guy. How does he even have the time?"
Aurora didn't dare reject the idea outright, so she tried to question it another way.
Director Z laughed cheerfully. "I don't know, that's what the higher-ups want. But with Everett on board, I guarantee this MV will break every music video record in Country S! He's the kind of man people want to see on screen. So Aurora, just go with it. Don't say no."
Aurora's breathing quickened, her face heating up.
Echoes of Everett's voice replayed in her mind.
"I want to marry you…"
"I don't care about that."
"If you can get lost, why can't I?"
His voice felt like a spell, and Aurora had a sinking feeling—like she couldn't escape his world.
