Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 425: Showing Affection on Set

Paloma Quinn knew in her heart that she didn’t need romantic entanglements, so she always maintained a terrifying level of rationality.

Even if she had unusual feelings for Rhys Kidd, she simply regarded it as admiration for him.

This process best illustrates Paloma Quinn’s calm composure and her mindset of carefully planning and waiting for the right moment.

However...

Selena Kensington frowned slightly as she watched the two people in the scene.

She thought for a moment, then called out to stop.

For a moment, everyone in the film crew turned to look at her.

Selena Kensington got up and walked over to Sloane Hawthorne’s side.

The assistant director sighed after seeing her get up, "Looks like we won’t finish shooting today..."

Noticing Sterling Norwood’s gaze, the assistant director quickly shut his mouth.

Sterling Norwood asked, "Why?" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The assistant director realized and looked at Sterling Norwood’s expression, seeing no sign of anger.

He bravely tried to speak, "Director Kensington rarely calls for a stop, but whenever she does, it means the scene won’t pass without repeated shots..."

Seeing Sterling Norwood’s expression unchanged, the assistant director gained a bit more courage.

He remarked with admiration, "Director Kensington really values the characters she creates, so she also places great importance on the feelings presented by the actors. Just now, Director Kensington probably felt something was off, so she called stop."

After hearing this, Sterling Norwood turned his head back.

He continued to look at Selena Kensington ahead.

Selena Kensington had already walked up to the two of them.

"Sloane, your feeling was not quite right just now."

Selena slightly frowns.

Sloane Hawthorne purses her lips slightly, "Sorry, sister, I..."

Selena Kensington shakes her head, "There’s no need to apologize. Paloma Quinn’s character is indeed difficult to portray."

"Especially in the time spent with Rhys Kidd, Paloma’s inner emotional complexity is not only expressed through her facial expressions, but also through some subconscious bodily movements that are crucial."

Sloane Hawthorne’s eyes widen slightly, looking at Selena Kensington like an eager student.

"During this period, although Paloma considers her attitude toward Rhys Kidd to be one of admiration only, her subconscious actions often inadvertently reveal her true feelings."

"For example, she remembers Rhys Kidd’s preferences and habits, thinking she merely needs to know them to get close to him, not realizing they are already imprinted in her heart."

"And in front of Rhys Kidd, her calm and composed gaze occasionally reveals a hint of confusion and hesitation."

"She is always drawn to Rhys Kidd’s presence, her eyes always following him."

Paloma Quinn is not truly an unfeeling person; on the contrary, she is a very passionate individual.

But the deep hatred of nation and the responsibilities on her shoulders leave her no time for such emotions.

She only knows that the person before her is The Crown Prince of War of The Valerion Kingdom.

He can help her destroy Karth.

Therefore, Paloma goes to great lengths to approach him.

Yet she forgets that her own heart cannot be controlled.

After listening to Selena Kensington’s explanation, Sloane Hawthorne still has a trace of confusion, "But sister... that kind of look from Paloma, I..."

Sloane Hawthorne has never been in love herself, so how could she understand the subtleties of unspoken admiration?

Harvey Vance also laughs from the side, "Sloane is just barely an adult, and she’s never experienced the pleasures of romance."

Selena Kensington thinks about it and agrees.

She turns her head and calls out to Sterling Norwood, "Sterling, come over here."

Then, the crew watches as Sterling Norwood obediently stands up and walks over to Selena Kensington’s side.

"Sit here, don’t move."

Selena Kensington directs Sterling Norwood to sit in the chair beside her.

This scene is meant to be Rhys Kidd’s study.

"Watch closely."

Selena Kensington says to Sloane Hawthorne.

Sloane Hawthorne’s eyes light up, quickly pulling Harvey Vance to step aside.

This is the first time Selena Kensington is personally demonstrating a scene.

For a moment, everyone in the crew turns to watch.

Selena Kensington takes a deep breath, adjusts her state of mind, and enters the scene.

Her face holds a calm, expressionless gaze.

Though her face is strikingly beautiful, it resembles a lotus on a snowy mountain.

Admirable only from afar.

She walks to Rhys Kidd’s side, like a dedicated subordinate.

"Your Highness."

She calls softly before naturally moving to the ink grinding position, her eyes lowered, grinding ink for Rhys Kidd.

In the entire space, there is only the sound of grinding ink and Rhys Kidd flipping through documents.

But she always manages to move the inkstone away before Rhys Kidd hands over the brush,

making it convenient for Rhys Kidd to dip the ink.

Sometimes, Rhys Kidd would laugh lightly, sometimes an amused smile, sometimes a cold sneer.

Paloma can always guess the approximate reason from his smile.

This behavior seems to have become a habit.

When Rhys Kidd’s gaze shifts to another direction, she can always follow his gaze,

and then deduce Rhys Kidd’s inner thoughts.

Looking at Rhys Kidd’s smile, she may even unconsciously pause for a few seconds, a hint of confusion flickering through her steady gaze, and her lips inadvertently curling up slightly at his smile.

But she quickly regains her composure.

Such subtle changes make it seem like Paloma never had these expressions.

Selena Kensington portraying Paloma, captures both the facial expressions and subconscious actions that reveal Paloma’s inadvertent budding emotions superbly.

Yet she doesn’t realize it, maintaining a terrifying level of rationality and composure.

Sterling Norwood watches Selena Kensington in this state, a slight smile on his lips.

Unable to contain his inner emotions, he leans over and places a light kiss on her face.

A kiss as gentle as a dragonfly touching the water, yet full of endless affection and tenderness.

Instantly, Selena Kensington is pulled out of her portrayal of Paloma.

She looks at him, slightly speechless, "Why did you suddenly kiss me?"

Sterling Norwood props one hand on the desk, smiling as he looks at her, "I kissed you because I wanted to."

"..."

"......"

Crew staff: Is it popular now to trick us single dogs into the room just to single us out?

They express that they’ve been fed more dog food at this age than they should have to endure.

Sterling Norwood isn’t worried about Selena Kensington; he’s clearly here to assert his dominance and show off his love!!!

Being closest to them, Sloane Hawthorne and Harvey Vance feel the most impact.

Harvey even jokingly says to Sloane Hawthorne, "Sloane, if this scene doesn’t pass, I think I’ll be full just from eating dog food today."

Sloane Hawthorne’s lips twitch slightly, "... What a coincidence, me too."

Hearing what Sterling Norwood said, Selena Kensington smiles.

Her actions clearly indicate she completely indulges him.

Suddenly thinking of something, she quickly turns to the assistant director and says, "This detail, we can add it to the middle part of the plot!"

On the surface, Rhys Kidd appears to be a composed and poised individual, but in front of Paloma, he behaves like a playful and unruly youth.

In the latter part, Rhys Kidd has already understood his feelings for Paloma.

He accepts his emotions.
