Under the Veil I Rule (Amara) novel Chapter 418

The questions started with the plot of the series, but the reporters quickly shifted their focus to Liliana’s personal life. It was to be expected. Their goal was to generate clicks and traffic, and the more explosive the story, the better. Liliana’s love life was far more sensational than any discussion about the script.

Liliana, ever the professional, deftly sidestepped each question. She handled the inquiries with a perfect balance of charm and ambiguity, neither confirming nor denying that she and Finnian were getting married, leaving plenty of room for speculation.

This, of course, was not what the reporters wanted. They wanted a definitive answer. They grew more aggressive, shouting over one another, throwing out increasingly pointed questions. The press conference was on the verge of becoming a one-woman show about Liliana’s private life. Cedric, the director, smilingly intervened, steering the conversation back to the series.

Just then, a reporter from a well-known national paper raised his hand. “Where is the head writer, Amarise? I see a seat for her. Is she late?”

There was indeed an empty chair on the stage. Since Amara was not only the writer of *Whispers of Winter* but also the ex-wife of its main investor, Mr. Everly, the gossip surrounding the three of them was a hot topic. Her absence was notable.

“Didn’t Amarise have some kind of accident?” a male reporter with glasses asked maliciously. “Weren’t there photos of her online? Maybe she’s too ugly to show her face, so she decided not to come.”
