Chapter 3048: Chapter 3057: Acting Skills Unleashed
Before the searing gaze from behind could burn him alive, Olivia Lewis finally let him go. He almost couldn’t help but step back, creating a safe distance. He reached up to touch his lips, looking completely stunned.
This reaction of pulling back was considered Cyrus Taylor’s normal response; the Director did not call cut, but instead watched Olivia Lewis intently, waiting for her next action.
The character Rosalyn, played by Olivia Lewis, was not disturbed by the passionate gaze from offstage. She was fully immersed in her acting. At this moment, she seemed to be Rosalyn, and her eyes were only on Cyrus Taylor.
"Weren’t you going to kiss me just now?"
"I... Rosalyn..."
The girl, almost like a little pixie, blinked her eyes with a smile, yet her tone was questioning, "Before you confessed to me, did you think about how to explain it to Sophia?"
The young man’s accelerated heartbeat seemed to calm slightly. He took a deep breath, clenched his fist, straightened his back, and said, "I will talk to Sophia properly. Don’t worry, I will protect you."
Rosalyn couldn’t describe her complex feelings at this moment. On one hand, she was happy that the boy she liked also liked her. She longed for the warmth of Cyrus Taylor. On the other hand, she hated this side of Cyrus Taylor, the one who would betray Sophia, and she hated herself for having betrayed Sophia previously.
"Sophia really likes you."
Cyrus Taylor couldn’t tell what she was thinking. His eyes were full of the quirky young girl, and he whispered, "I know, it’s my fault. I should have bravely confessed that I liked you when I first realized it, instead of misunderstanding your relationship with another guy when I saw you close with him. If I had chosen to confess at the start, none of this would have happened. Rosalyn, don’t be afraid; I will try to tell Sophia in a way that doesn’t hurt her. If she is to hate anyone, let it be me. I will explain clearly to her that our breakup has nothing to do with you."
His words made Rosalyn laugh uncontrollably. She glanced at him coquettishly, "Cyrus, do you think I’m as gullible as Sophia? You and Sophia are doing well together, and then suddenly you tell her you want to break up. Not long after, you’re with me. You say it has nothing to do with me, will Sophia believe that?"
Being sharply questioned by the girl he liked, Cyrus Taylor felt very unsettled. He was actually very flustered now, his mind a blank, not knowing how to handle the current situation. By nature, he wasn’t a philanderer; the good upbringing and moral values he received as a child told him that his current behavior was wrong. Yet he couldn’t help being attracted to the lively and spirited Rosalyn.
Rosalyn and Sophia were two extreme types themselves.
Rosalyn was lively and spirited, like a little pixie.
Sophia was pure and quiet, the girl-next-door type.
It wasn’t that he thought Sophia wasn’t good; it’s just that compared to Sophia who was gentle and always compliant, he preferred the enigmatic Rosalyn.
Though, in everyone’s eyes, he and Sophia were the same kind of people.
Compelled by his desire to be responsible to the girl he liked, he grasped Rosalyn’s shoulder and promised with conviction, "I will clarify things with Sophia. I won’t let her misunderstand you. Rosalyn, I truly like you, I’ve liked you since the first moment I saw you. I..."
Rosalyn looked deeply into his eyes, then pulled away his hand from her shoulder, "I’m sorry, I don’t believe you."
