Meanwhile, on the set, Jimmie finished greeting the guests he knew and slowly made his way to the last few people.

“Hello, Jimmie.” He stopped in front of Yates and extended his right hand. With a slight bow, he looked like an ethereal, well-mannered gentleman, completely captivating.

“It’s an honor, Jimmie. I’m Yates.” Yates quickly clasped Jimmie’s hand with both of his, his smile wide with irrepressible excitement. “I’m a huge fan of your films. I hope I’ll have the privilege of working with you one day.”

“Of course,” Jimmie said before withdrawing his hand. As he turned to the girl beside Yates, his gaze turned dark and intense.

“Hello, Jimmie.” The words were flat, devoid of any emotion, and a cool breeze seemed to sweep through the hall, dropping the temperature by several degrees.

“???” The other guests looked over curiously. Jimmie’s tone was so cold, a stark contrast to the polite warmth he’d shown just moments ago.

Yolanda stood frozen, the color draining from her face as she swayed on her feet. Jimmie… How could the surprise guest be Jimmie? If that was the case, then the sister accompanying him had to be… Juniper?

“Hello,” Jimmie said again, noticing Yolanda’s pale face and flustered state.

“H-Hello, Jimmie.” Yolanda looked up, and the sight of the cameras brought her back to her senses. Forcing herself to remain calm, she said, “I’m Yolanda.”
