News that this cold, ridiculously good–looking CEO was stepping into movies was already the kind of thing that made headlines blow up.

Jeremy wasn’t just a business powerhouse–he was also a crazy–handsome young bachelor with major charm.

Tall, perfectly built, and carrying himself with natural confidence, he was like walking temptation.

With looks, status, and charisma all at once, he made the entertainment industry’s carefully manufactured idols look cheap in comparison.

Amelia, who had been unsure at first, thought about it and realized this might actually be a win.

The investor wouldn’t just pour in money–he’d even take a supporting role himself, pulling in attention and hype for the movie.

She had also been nervous about filming romantic scenes with a guy for the first time.

But if it was Jeremy, she actually felt calm about it.

“Alright, you’re the investor, so it’s up to you. But if you’re going to act in the film, we still need to check with the director and see what he says.”

Amelia finally agreed, and Jeremy, of course, didn’t object.

Back home, she quickly told the director, Sylvester Manwaring, and they arranged another meeting to go over things.

Amelia worried the famously strict Sylvester might shoot down the idea of Jeremy acting.

After all, he didn’t have training–not even a hobby.

But once Jeremy auditioned, Sylvester couldn’t stop complimenting him.

He thought Jeremy’s vibe, personality, and even his social standing fit the part perfectly.

What shocked everyone more was that the terrifying CEO actually had impressive acting skills.

Especially in fight scenes–he didn’t even need a stuntman.

It was obvious he had a natural gift for it.

Amelia completely agreed.

As for the main leads, Amelia left the choices to Patience and Sylvester.

She trusted them to carefully filter candidates, making sure the actors and actresses had both skills and a decent reputation, plus enough public recognition.

Once it was set that Jeremy would play opposite her, he was in an unusually good mood and even suggested grabbing dinner together.

She initially hesitated, but since they were about to act in scenes against each other, she said

yes.

It was also a good chance to talk about the story and review the script.
