Chapter 1656
Nicole immediately said, "There's no need forthat. Don't worry. No one will pick on me. Lloyd's the one who
personally invited me after all."
Even if Lloyd was not the one who had invited her, she would not be afraid of anything either.
As Nicole had a point, her family nodded.
Daniel, however, was a little worried. "You're right, but aren't you still studying? Time wise..."
Nicole shook her head. "I've already discussed this with Lloyd. The filming of all of my parts will take place either
after class or during the weekends." "Oh?" Daniel said, feeling a little surprised.
Although he did not understand much about the entertainment industry, it would almost be impossible for Lloyd to
schedule the filming sessions to accommodate Nicole's time in order to get her to join the production.
At that point, even Sean's eyes began to darken.

There're plenty of people who wish to befriend her."
Steve's statement gave Daniel somewhat of a reassurance.
'Right, now that the Riddle family is unlike what it was before, it would make sense for Lloyd to want to continue
working with the Riddle family.' "So when does the filming start?" Samuel asked, feeling a little excited. "Can we go
to the set to observe?"
Nicole sighed. "Filming starts this weekend. I'll let you know if you can be allowed to observe on set." "Nice!" Samuel
nodded. "You're the best, Nicole!"
Seeing that everything was almost settled, all Nicole wanted was to flee her way upstairs. "I'll go upstairs to get
some rest first."
Knowing that Nicole must be tired, Gloria said, "Okay, go and get some rest." "Okay." Nicole nodded as she hurried
upstairs.
Even as they watched Nicole rushing up the flight of steps, her family still found it difficult to recompose
themselves.
Sean glanced at the top of the steps and decided that he would pop into the set once in a while to keep an eye on
Nicole...
After going she had gone to her bedroom, Nicole gave herself a rinse and laid on the bed, unable to help herself
from looking through her phone.
And sure enough, when the paparazzi first exposed her photo, everyone began to develop theories and suspicions
about her relationship with Lloyd.
Thankfully, the production team had come forward to clarify the matter.
'Seems to me that Lloyd did that as a last resort,' she thought.
As that thought lingered, Nicole’s phone rang, and upon taking a glance, she saw that it was Lloyd.
The moment she accepted the call, Lloyd immediately apologized. "I'm sorry, Nicole. You've seen the news, haven't
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyou?" "Yeah, I've seen it already," Nicole nodded.
Her voice was extremely monotonous, bereft of any emotions, prompting Lloyd to think that she was unhappy, and
so, he quickly explained, "I did not know that there would be a paparazzi at the entrance of the headquarters. To
avoid any misunderstandings, I had to reveal your role as the heroine. Sorry, I know you hate this sort of attention."
Hearing the sincerity in Lloyd's words, Nicole responded." It's okay. Even though I'm not in the entertainment circle,
I know the paparazzi are like mites. They can literally be anywhere and everywhere. It's not like we can just kill
them like we do terrorists." "Um..." Lloyd choked on his words.
He knew that Nicole was speaking the truth but her use of the word 'kill' was a little too shocking.
"It's fine. The cast of the female lead will be exposed sooner or later. Since I've already decided to help you, I can't
say that I haven't seen this coming," she said.
Ever since she returned to San Joto, things about her started to inadvertently reveal themselves one after another
One by one, her secrets were exposed and now, as helpless as she was, she was beginning to get used to it already.
"That's good... Thanks for understanding." Lloyd took a deep breath. "Sorry for having to stop the meal so abruptly."
