“I can handle it.
”
Matthew, respecting her determination, chose not to press further.
Upon reaching the set, he pulled over and opened the passenger door for her.
“You can head back,” Ste said as she stepped out of the car, intending to walk away.
Yet, in a swift motion, Matthew drew her back, encircling her waist with his arm and pulling her close.
He smoothed her hair back and ki*sed her forehead tenderly.
“See you tonight.
”
Ste, flushed with embarrassment and wary of prying eyes, pushed him away.
“Okay.
”
From thefort of his opulent vehicle, Luka witnessed the exchange, a sneer curling his lip.
He had misjudged Ste the day before, not expecting the unassuming art director to be Matthew’s spouse.
The irony wasn’t lost on him-ady of wealth working amidst the chaos of a film set.
Matthew drove off, and Ste turned away, ready to head to the set.
When she faced the other way, Luka stood by the fancy car, sporting a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes.
Still processing the recent scene, Ste couldn’t shake off the awkwardness.
She managed a forced smile.
“Good morning.
”

To her surprise, Luka responded with a smile, though it held a touch of mockery and disdain.
Ste’s smile faltered as she met his scrutinizing gaze.
Luka, barely hiding his contempt,mented, “Mrs.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.
rk, you must have been pretty exhausted from serving me all day yesterday.
