    Chapter 238 Caught Shirlene’s Attention


    “You’re wee. Don’t hesitate to call me if you need anything. I’ll be waiting at the living room


    entrance.” Bethany turned and left. However, her attention remained on Melinda even as she walked


    away. She kept in mind Mervin’s instructions and attentively observed Melinda’s emotions.


    Stanley, are you awake? Are you okay? Are you still alive? A voice resounded in Melinda’s heart and


    endlessly echoed these questions.


    Her lips quivered, and a profound sadness consumed her. Not even the radiant sunlight could dispel it.


    She had even forgotten to check on the children in her thoughts about Stanley.


    With Sherry and Gael looking after them, she felt a sense of relief.


    In a luxurious VIP suite at a Navelie hospital, the spacious suite featured multiple rooms and living


    areas. Jennifer and Monica had their separate bedrooms, but they had yet to manage to get any sleep.


    Monica sat attentively by Stanley’s bedside, watching over him.


    The atmosphere around them was chillingly silent and suffocating in its stillness.


    He was, once again, wearing the oxygen mask and remained unconscious, his breathing incredibly


    feeble. Continuous monitoring instruments kept a close watch on him.


    Surrounded by blooming lilies in a seaside vi in Riverdale, Melinda sat on the terrace couch with her


    knees drawn close to her chest as she silently prayed for Stanley’s well-being.

    On the filming set for The Love in Sapphire Bay, it embraced a captivating outdoor backdrop with


    vibrant green grass and stunning architectural structures. A Gothic-style church graced the vicinity.


    Under the radiant sun, a gentle breeze caressed the air.


    Throughout the day. Mervin and Shirlene—the male and female leads-were engrossed in various


    scenes for their project. They had been shooting intensively from morning till now, including a shot


    where they had an idental encounter and shared a kiss.


    During the midday break after lunch, she was captivated by his remarkably handsome appearance. Her


    gaze uncontrobly lingered on him.


    Meanwhile, he stood under a coconut tree with one hand in his pocket as he made a phone call. “How


    is she doing?”novelxo fast update


    Bethany reported, “Mr. Laurent, Ms. Paisley epted the phone you gave her without any emotional


    fluctuations. She’s been sitting on the patio couch and gazing at the clouds without even taking a sip of


    water.”


    Mervin’s heart suddenly ached. “I see. I’lle back earlier today.”


    Not far away, Shirlene sat under a parasol. Under her exquisite makeup, herrge eyes flickered as her


    gaze remained fixated on his figure.


    Every gesture and movement he made effortlessly tugged at her heartstrings.


    “Miss Grayson.” The assistant followed her gaze and could not help but agree, handing her an opened


    bottle of water. “Mervin is handsome.”


    “Right?” Her lips curved into a smile. I simply adore his cold and aloof demeanor.”


    During every filming in the past, the actors on set would be incredibly attentive to Shirlene, but she


    grew tired of their attention and could not be bothered to give them a second nce.


    She took a sip of water, her eyes never leaving Mervin’s tall figure and captivating profile.


    At this moment, he stood out among all the actors she had encountered like a breath of fresh air. He


    had entered the entertainment industry and gained immense poprity, amassing over a hundred


    million followers on Twitter.


    His most lethal quality was the natural charm emanating from his rugged handsomeness. I’m sure


    many women would be attracted to him.


    “Take a look at the script. There’s a kissing sceneing up,” the assistant reminded Shirlene. “It’s the


    first kissing scene in the entire drama.”


    “I memorized the lines a week ago. Don’t worry. I’ll be fine,” she assured confidently, eagerly


    anticipating the scene.


    “Is everyone ready?” After a brief pause, the director’s maic voice, Jarrett Porter, echoed through


    the set. “Corey Matthews and Aria Dudley, take your positions!”


    Mervin briefly gave some instructions over the phone before hanging up. He approached Jarrett. “Mr.


    Porter, I have to leave right after we finish this scene, so I won’t be able to attend the dinner tonight. I


    apologize in advance.”
