Jimmy's lips tightened before he replied , " She's our adopted sister . " Alicia staggered back two steps , staring at him in disbelief . He had exposed her background so bluntly after they had promised her they wouldn't . Jeremy steadied her , and his gaze darted between our family members . He was deep in thought . " Wow , that was decisive , " I said with a smirk . " Fine , for standing up for me , I'll stop calling you a dummy so often . " The director , who had just uncovered the dramatic twist involving the real and fake heiress , now had a gleam of excitement in his eyes . ' No way , no way ! Does he really think that with Zachary out of the picture , the show can just go on and blow up by digging into my family's connections ? The biggest ticking time bomb of this show has always been him !! I said internally . The director shot up from his seat . Even Alicia abandoned her fake display of grief and attempt to garner sympathy . ' Honestly , you could say his situation is pitiful , but when you think about it , the reason for his misery is … well , complicated , ' I thought . At that moment , Angela slid over to my side , squeezing past my brother to link her arm through mine . Her eyes sparkled as she looked at me with a kind of intense admiration . ' Um … Why is she staring at me like that ? ' I was puzzled . " I just think you're so beautiful , Yunice ! " she declared . I couldn't help but flash a shy smile , silently giving her credit in my heart . ' At least she's got good taste . ' Her face lit up with joy , and she laughed happily . ' No wonder you're the kind of woman who always books the top male models at the club ! ' I exclaimed in my mind . The air around us grew noticeably tense , as if everyone was holding their breath . ' She has the guts to book them but not to follow through . Every time , she just ends up playing poker with them in bed till morning ! ' I laughed silently . Angela buried her face in her hands , while I stole a glance at the director , who seemed to be on edge . 1/3 Chapter 7 My True identity is Revealed +25 Bonus ' Dude , you constipated or something ? Where were we ? Oh , right - the show can't air because someone's out to ruin him . ' Though , to be fair , that " someone " is a mess of his own making . Because- ' Tsk , tsk , tsk . My brother is just a cuckold , but this guy is a real cuckold fetishist ! ' The crowd fell silent for a moment , followed by a collective gasp . A few curious glances darted between Jimmy and Harvey. Jimmy cleared his throat , turned to Harvey , and asked , " Hey , has William been in a bad mood lately ? " Harvey immediately caught on . " Oh , absolutely . Didn't he just break things off with his fiancee ? " ' Wait , why are they suddenly bringing up William ? Did he and Dory really split up ? Well , I guess it makes sense . Didn't she end up in jail ? ' Next to me , Angela , inexplicably worked up over the drama , gripped my arm so tightly I thought it might snap . I quickly wriggled free , rescuing my poor limb from her iron - clad grasp . Meanwhile , the director's face flushed crimson . He looked like he wanted to storm out yet felt compelled to stay . His expression shifted wildly as if he were trapped in his own internal tug - of - war . The gossip in my mind continued , ' Would you believe how nervous he was when he first suggested playing these ' games ' with his wife ? But his wife turned out to be way more adventurous than him . In fact , she only married him because of his kink . ' Here's the kicker . Now , his wife and the new adulterer have fallen in love with each other , and they are taking advantage of the director's absence to transfer property . ' By the time he wraps up this episode , he'll come home to find nothing but cold leftovers . Oh , and that hard - fought funding for this show ? Gone too . Rumor has it his wife's already siphoned it off . At this rate , the guy's gonna land himself in the hospital from sheer rage . ' The director suddenly shot to his feet with a gloomy face . " I have something urgent to handle . You all continue filming . The assistant director will take over ! " Still caught up in my gossip , I barely noticed his abrupt departure until I glanced up and realized the assistant director had taken his place . Donald , standing beside me , leaned in to explain , " The director got a phone call just now and had to leave . " " Oh , " I replied with a small nod . Taking another look at him , I sighed dramatically . " What a handsome guy . Such a pity . " Donald's brows knitted together . He was clearly annoyed . But my attention had already shifted to the assistant director , a much younger man who , unfortunately , was just as bald . " Assistant Director- " The excitement of being newly promoted immediately froze on his face . He stared at me with a pleading expression that screamed , ' Please , spare me , ma'am , ' ' You're still here ? Your wife is about to give birth ! And yet , here you are , calmly filming this show while your mother , who's obsessed with having a grandson , plots to sell off your unborn daughter the moment she arrives . Seriously , what a snake ! ' I said internally . Everyone collectively turned to glare at the assistant director in disdain . ' How should I break it to him , though ? The guy's the ultimate mama's boy , a man - child through and through . He always listens to her no matter what . If I bad - mouth his mother , he'll probably just assume I'm making things up , ' I continued internally . ' Ugh , I can't stand mamas ' boys . His wife has complained to him more times than I can count about how his mother secretly bullies her . Oh , and let's not forget the part where she eavesdrops on their private moments . And what does he do ? He brushes it off , saying his wife's being dramatic . Please , His mother probably knows his favorite bedroom moves by heart , although there's not much to note there , considering he barely lasts three minutes . ' The assistant director , likely choking on his own saliva , started coughing violently . ' How am I supposed to tell him ? Seriously , this is urgent ! ' I started wondering . Before I could come up with a solution , Donald suddenly spoke . " Sir , I heard from the producer that your wife's due soon . Shouldn't you go check on her ? " The assistant director shot up , his face burning red . " I - I'll take my leave now . " I turned to Donald with sparkling eyes . ' Oh , Don , you're such a sweetheart . My little lifesaver ! '
