    Whenever she was around Palmer, her heart would ace uncontrobly


    Was this what a cram felt like? If not then what was i


    Palmer locked into Noe’s eyes camesty pulling a handkerchief from his pocket to gently wipe the


    blood off her hands.


    your brother okay?


    He’s just knocked out. We’ll ask him what happened when he wakes up.”


    As No spoke, she noticed Palmer suddenly pulling her hand closer to sniff it


    It’s just chicken and duck blood, no womes


    Watching this man carefully clean each of her fingers before casually wiping the blood off his own


    hands warmed Noe’s heart.


    “Thank your


    If you really went to thank me can I hug you?”


    There was a yful glint in Palmer’s eyes as his tall fame cast a protective shadow over Noe, as


    if embracing her


    Meeting Palmer’s gaze, Noes heart skipped a beat again.


    “Okay”


    Just as a smile flickered across Palmer’s face and he reached out towards Noe, a shout echoed


    from inside the house.


    Noe! Are you out there?”


    Noe pushed Palmer away and ran towards the house. “String, I’m here”


    Palmer looked at his empty hands, stall feeling Noe’s presence linger


    He was so close to holding her….


    With a sigh of resignation mixed with a wry smile, Palmer followed Noe inside.


    Stirling rubbed his head, looking up at Noe kneeling before him.


    “Noe, what are you doing here?”


    “String, never mind that. What happened to you and Yacbel? How did you end up here? You’ve


    been missing from the set for almost three days”


    Stirling was shocked. That long? No wonder you’re here! I’m so sorry, Noe”


    Noe shook her head, helping Stirling to his feet.


    Yacbel, also groggilying to, locked at Noe and the hurriedly arrived Nn, then drifted back


    to sleep.


    The crew arriving at the scene were also drenched in cold sweat, frantically checking on both of


    them before taking them back to Glen Vige.


    Stiring, sitting in Maddox’s backyard, had to eat several bowls of spaghetti toe back to his


    senses. Wiping his mouth, he began to recall the events of the past few days.


    That night, as Stirling was about toy down.


    He always felt a pang of sadness whenever heid in Noe’s tiny room. The room was no bigger


    than the bathroom in his own room at Schnabel Manor, barely amodating his tall frame.


    The old, bulky wardrobe and the bed made by the vige’s elderly carpenter with somewhat damp


    wood materials made him think of how his sister and grandmother had lived in such conditions for


    years!


    On a whim, String decided to explore the room’s contents. After getting Noes consent via text, he


    got up.


    All of Noe’s childhood possessions were carefully preserved by Old Mrs. Lambert in boxes.


    Among them were report cards with


    straight As, and inside a small wooden box, Stirling found drawings Noe had made as a child.


    Stirling was surprised, these drawings seemed familiar The style reminded him of something he’d


    seen before.


    Without much thought, Sading moved to the wardrobe to see what was inside. Upon opening it, he


    was greeted by Debbie and Ma Fuller hiding what


    String was


    Was this some kind of pedomance


    Suddenly, bles fell off the balcony and a group of obsessed fans climbed in, staring in shelf at the


    scene inside


    A scream came from the next room I was Yerl


    “What the hell is thest (1) kill your


    Yashel had been preparing to rest when Ellsworth tried to sneak into her bed in the middle of the


    nightt


    In the end, Ellsworth was left beaten ck and blue by Yashel, unrecognizable even to his own


    mother


    Sting shagged. “Then we chased them all the way to the old Fuller family house, and next thing we


    knew, we passed out. When! woke up, I saw Noe”


    After finishing a bowl of spaghetti and drinking a ss of juice, Yashel bumped.


    was starving! If you hadn’t shown up, we might’ve starved to death there. And where did the ether


    come from in such a rural gre


    Noe frowned slightly “With the security measures in ce, neither the Fuller family nor obsessed


    fans should’ve been able to approach your location”


    Stirling and Vasbel were knocked out with a high concentration of ether. Even in Imperial City, it


    wouldn’t be easy to obtain such a high concentration of ether, let alone in a remote countryside.


    This couldn’t be a coincidence, someone must be targeting Stirling and Yasbel!


    Noe nced at Ellsworth lying on the ground. “Who did this?”


    Yasbel whistled nonchntly “Who knows? We were all out cold, and when we woke up, he was


    like this?”


    Clearly, Yasbel was the culprit, but with no evidence, she wasn’t about to take a day trip to the


    police station!


    The police took away the unconscious Fuller family members, while the intruding obsessed fans


    had long since vanished.


    Noe looked sternly at Stirling. “Stirling, you have to press charges against those people. You can’t


    let them off the hook”


    Stirling gently stroked Noe’s hair, speaking softly, “I’m sorry, Noe, for making you worry about


    me.”


    With obsessed fans running wild, Jasper had also said many times they couldn’t be lenient.


    “One year, a fan chasing after my car got into an ident, and then the fan’s family med me for


    it. Later, someone messaged me out of the blue, asking what if my sister were to be someone


    else’s superfan?”


    Stirling chuckled sheepishly. “I know, it’s unlikely. My sister would never be that obsessed with


    anyone, but still…”


    Still, he couldn’t help but think of the possibility!


    “I just figured, if I treat them kindly, maybe others will do the same for my sister.”


    Yasbel snorted. “Come on, Stirling, how old are you? Still so naive? Not to mention whether Boss


    would ever be someone’s superfan, it’s your indecisiveness that could be your downfall.”


    Yasbel had known this ever since Stirling gave Yvonne a chance to audition andnd a supporting


    role. Despite knowing Yvonne was bad news, Stirling wanted to give her a chance, just like with


    those superfans.


    Her boss’s brother, Stirling, of all the Schnabel siblings, was probably the most tender–hearted and


    soft! In the entertainment industry, that’s not necessarily a good trait! Wasn’t it Stirling’s soft heart


    that caused this mess in the first ce?


    Stirling raised an eyebrow in surprise. “Boss? Yasbel, did you know Noe before?”
