-You almost fooled me!” Nancy exclaimed. “Do you think I’m blind? This is Matthew, isn’t it? Did you do this to imagine a relationship with him because you fell for his good looks when we had a barbecue together? The marriage certificate looks well–made. Which app did you use to create it? Quick, pass it to me. I want to create a mock marriage certificate with Ambrose. We may not be able to marry for real, but a pretend certificate is something we can have.”
at me!
Nancy started bursting into laughter when she saw the groom in the photo was Matthew. She nearly got But I must say the forged marriage certificate looks as authentic as the real one.
Her remark left Aurelia speechless for a moment. “Yes, it’s Matthew. He’s the man I married. It was a spur- of–the–moment decision.“”
“Yeah, yeah, yeah. I believe you, of course.” Nancy nodded emphatically, though her patience to play along. was wearing thin. Doesn’t she realize she’s a terrible liar? She can’t even come up with a believable story.
Aurelia was rendered speechless. Why can’t she believe me even after seeing the photo of my marriage certificate? I guess she wouldn’t believe it even if I showed her the actual certificate.
While the two of them were engaged in idle chatter, the scene featuring Charlie and Ambrose had ended.
Soon, Aurelia received a call from Charlie. “Auri, you arrived?”
“Yeah. Charlie. I’m over here.” Aurelia waved in the direction of Charlie.
“Oh, there you are. I’ll come to get you. I just spoke with Ambrose and told him you two are his fans. He’s waiting to take a group photo before he leaves.”
“Yay!” Aurelia and Nancy followed Charlie to the resting area of the film crew.
It was there that they encountered Ambrose.
Off–screen, Ambrose was a down–to–earth and easy–going man.
After a brief introduction by Charlie, Ambrose smiled gently at Aurelia and Nancy. “Still in college?”
Many young girls had a crush on him and would often leave him messages on Twitter, expressing their desire to have his child. Kids and their fantasy.
Aurelia decided to give Nancy the chance to speak to Ambrose. “Mr. Stark, we just graduated from university. Ever since your debut in ‘Awake‘ about ten years ago, I’ve been a huge fan of yours. Your fight scenes are the most concise and impressive I’ve ever seen. I adore you so much! Among all the movie stars, you’re my absolute favorite!”
Nancy was so agitated that she was on the verge of tears. I bet no one else can understand the thrill of meeting my
idol!
Aurelia said, “Mr. Stark, Nancy introduced me to all your films, and I, too, am blown away by your acting and action scenes.”
She was not the kind of person who would get starstruck by celebrities.
If someone were to ask who her idol was, the only person that would come to mind was Hannah.

Of course, there was no doubt that she had a deep admiration for Ambrose’s acting skills and personality. Charlie mentioned that Ambrose had been in the industry for many years without being implicated in scandals or rarely appearing in variety shows. As a dedicated professional, he also maintained an excellent reputation and garnered praise from directors he had collaborated with.
Ambrose turned to Nancy, and upon noticing the radiance on her face, he couldn’t help but flash a grin. “It means a lot that you admire me like that.”
Upon hearing those words, Nancy couldn’t help but blush. “Can we take a photo together?”
“Sure, of course,
Immediately, Nancy pulled Aurelia over to take a photo together with Ambrose.
Charlie took a group photo of them.
After that, Charlie couldn’t help but express a hint of jealousy. “I’ve been busy all day, but it seems no one pays much attention to me.”
“You have a long road ahead of you. Charlie.” Ambrose praised. “I have high hopes for you”
He saw his past in Charlie–the young man who used to strive relentlessly, without caring about anything
else.
All the praise made Charlie blush. “I’ll do my best
“Nancy, could you take a photo of Charlie and me? Aurelia handed her phone to Nancy.
Just as Nancy was about to take the phone, she realized she hadn’t yet handed out the cookies. Swiftly, she presented them to Ambrose. “Mr. Stark, I made these cookies. I reduced the sugar and oil, so you can enjoy them without worrying about your physique.”
Ambrose looked somewhat surprised as he glanced at the cookies Nancy had given him.
Many years ago, when he first entered the entertainment industry and starred in his debut film, hardly any journalists interviewed him during the promotional tour.
After the journalists finished interviewing the main cast, the press conference host would casually ask, “And what about you, Ambrose? What’s your favorite food?”
His reply was simple–cookies.
Later in his career, he hired a manager who provided him with standard questions. Over time, he learned to conceal his preferences and stopped expressing them openly. Just moments ago, he had thought that Nancy’s confession of liking him for many years was merely a polite remark. But it seems the cares deeply
about me.
“Thank you,” Ambrose said with a touch of sincerity in his tone.
Nancy beamed with a smile as radiant as the sun. “You’re welcome, Mr. Stark. This is just a small token of my appreciation as a fan-
Meanwhile, Matthew, who was playing golf not too far away, spotted a familiar figure.
At first, he was unsure if the person was Aurelia, but upon closer inspection he realized it was her

Gordon followed Matthew’s gaze, and upon seeing Aurelia, he exclaimed, “It’s Ms. Shaw! Is she a fan of Ambrose?”
Matthew couldn’t help but wonder. “Ambrose?”
Gordon observed curiously. “Ambrose Stark is an actor, but he’s no ordinary one. He’s a three–time Best Actor award winner with countless other accolades. With over a hundred million followers on social media, he’s a guaranteed box office hit. I’m a big fan of his, but he has even more female admirers. My younger sisters and even my mom are all smitten with him. You could say he’s a heartthrob.”
He was surprised to learn that Aurelia, too, was a fan of Ambrose.
Suddenly, a realization dawned on Gordon.
He turned around to look at Matthew.
When he saw Matthew narrowing his eyes and glaring at Ambrose, his heart skipped a beat. Is he jealous?
“There’s an actor named Charlie. He’s probably one of Ms. Shaw’s brothers. She must have come to visit him on set, right?” Matthew recalled that when Aurelia had left in the morning, she mentioned she was going to visit her brother on his set.
He lifted his foot, intending to walk in the direction of Aurelia and Charlie.
Suddenly, a woman emerged and stood in front of him.
Matthew immediately exuded an indifferent aura when he noticed the woman.
“Mr. Quigley, please hear me out. Even when a criminal makes a mistake, they’re given a chance to make amends. We’ve known each other for so many years and have many mutual friends. I admit it was inappropriate for me to approach Aurelia. I overstepped my boundaries,” Angela anxiously explained to
Matthew.
The past few days had been chaotic for the Sanders family. Her father blamed her mother for being reckless and not considering the consequences of her actions. He also reproached her for not holding Angela back.
Her father also instructed Angela to clarify things with Matthew, insisting that she must seek reconciliation with him.
Over the past few days, Angela’s distraction led to frequent mistakes at work. She attempted to use her connections to arrange a meeting with Matthew, but they all declined to assist her. Instead, Timothy advised her to figure out a way to appease Matthew on her own.
After patiently waiting for a few days, she learned that Matthew and Timothy were playing golf today. Upon hearing this, she swiftly canceled her evening plans to join them at the golf course.
A glint of indifference flickered in Matthew’s eyes, his knitted brows betraying his dwindling patience.
Meanwhile, as Nancy was reviewing the photos she had taken of Aurelia and Charlie, she spotted Matthew in the distance. “Matthew?
