Behind The Spotlight Chapter 125
The two actors stepped onto the red carpet in formal attire, Lawrence in a suit and Jolyne in a gown that shimmered under the flashing lights. Lawrence's tailored suit fit him perfectly, sharp lines enhancing his figure, while Jolyne's dress flowed like water around her. She held Lawrence's arm as they walked close together, their practiced smiles making it seem as if they were truly close, when in reality, they could barely stand each other.
Their fans screamed their names with wild excitement, voices blending into one overwhelming roar that echoed down the carpet. Some fans held banners, others waved posters with their pictures. Photographers captured their every movement, the flashing lights nearly blinding them as dozens of lenses clicked in rapid succession. They posed for the cameras, their smiles kept in place, every tilt of their heads carefully calculated to create the perfect angle for magazines and newspapers, to look good from every direction.
When they reached the next spot, a female reporter stood waiting, microphone in hand, smiling brightly at the chance to interview two of Hollywood's stars.
"Jolyne, I'm a big fan. I just want to say you look stunning in that dress."
"Thank you." The actress returned the compliment with a graceful smile, her tone soft and polite.
"And you, Lawrence, such a young man, but full of charisma."
"I practiced in the mirror." Lawrence joked with a playful smirk, drawing laughter from both the reporter and Jolyne.
The reporter began professionally, asking safe questions about the film, their roles, and their experiences on set... until she touched on Jolyne's abduction incident.
