Chapter 655 Managed to Trick Hayden Wayne first crossed paths with Zelena while promoting a variety show alongside the main cast.

Zelena had always been infatuated with Nolan, convinced he was the perfect match for her, which caused her to overlook the other male actors entirely. However, after coming to terms with the reality that a romance with Nolan was out of reach, her emotions shifted tically.

What had once been love turned to resentment, and she found herself secretly hoping for Nolan to experience setbacks.

Spending twith Wayne allowed her to view him in a different light; he genuinely was a good man.

Though Wayne was ten years older than her, his well-groomed appearance made him seem remarkably youthful, obscuring the true passage of time.

If a relationship with Wayne blossomed, it could potentially open new avenues for her career, paving the way for more prominent roles.

What value was there in being popular without substantial work to support it? In the entertainment field, genuine talent served as the bedrock, while foften eclipsed mere popularity. Zelena yearned for a prestigious award or perhaps a benefactor to assist her, much like Hattie, who starred in "Whisper to the Mountain Spirit" alongside Nolan, earning critical acclaim and paving her way toward potential awards in the coming year. Zelena couldn't help but feel a stab of jealousy; why did Hattie get the opportunity to be in a film that could win awards while she was left empty-handed? Having a high profile was advantageous, but she understood it wouldn't last indefinitely; she had to consider her future.

Even now, participating in variety shows felt like an uphill battle for her.

Her back injury flared up from tto time, leading her to depend on pain relief patches throughout the year. Reluctant to step outside her comfort zone, she gritted her teeth and pressed on.

On the show, Wayne and Zelena were deliberately paired for publicity purposes, and she discreetly contacted him, pretending it was an apology.

Wayne didn't turn her down, which led Zelena to feel that there might be something developing between them. She becinvested in Wayne, even promoting his upcoming film on Facebook, where commenters, presumably paid supporters, raved about how well they suited each other and how wonderful it would be if they actually got together.

As the anniversary celebration livestream kicked off, Violeta graced the screen in an elegant gray haute couture gown, its simple lines exuding sophistication. Seated on opposite sides of the host, the cameras mainly focused on Violeta-after all, she was the evening's biggest star.

It wasn't until 20 minutes into the broadcast that Zelena finally made her entrance.

When Zelena stepped onto the scene, the host visibly relaxed, engaging in lighthearted banter with her that flowed easily.

The difference was stark; during interactions with Violeta, the host displayed noticeable caution in their words, as if hesitant to upset her.

In contrast, with Zelena, who frequently appeared on variety shows, the atmosphere was far more casual. Perhaps this was due to the understanding that Zelena could handle jokes without taking offense.

Additionally, Zelena's status in the industry wasn't as elevated as Violeta's, so the host felt less pressure to be careful in their approach.

As the live broadcast neared its climax, it shifted to a fan Q&A segment.

The host randomly picked questions from audience comments to pose to the guests.

Each guest would respond to two questions.

When it was Violeta's turn, the first question posed was, "Vio, a viewer wants to know about your upcoming film project. Everyone is curious about it's release date. Is it a TKseries or a movie? I heard you finished a major film production last year, but it hasn't premiered yet. Do you have any updates on its release?" Violeta nodded and replied, "Yes, I do A |

have another movie scheduled for I release this year, but I can't confirm the exact date just yet. So, please keep an eye out." The host chuckled, adding, "I wonder if you used any of our products while filming on set.

Violeta graciously responded, "Absolutely!" The second question took a more scandalous turn.

|| "Vio, a fan mentioned that you and Hayden have recently been making headlines for house hunting

together Is there any truth to that? If so, does this mean wedding bells are in the future? When can we expect an ΕΠ official announcement?" Without a moment's hesitation, Violeta acknowledged, "Yes, we were indeed looking at houses for our future ..."

Before she could complete her thought, Zelena cast a sideways glance her way, a flicker of mixed emotions crossing her face. This revelation caught her off guard.

Violeta, that b*tch, had somehow managed to trick Hayden!
