Samantha ignored Cara completely and went to the living room to watch television.
Cara was incredibly frantic as she stared at the shut study's door upstairs, so she decided to head to the kitchen to slice up a plate of fruits and bring it upstairs.
Thud, thud, thud.
Cara knocked on the door and said, "Hey, Shayne, I've sliced up some fruits. Do you want to eat them?"
Shayne grinned as he buried his head against Yanny's nape on the other side of the door as he said, "Why don't you tell her if I’ll eat them or not."
Yanny thought to herself, '... Goddamn pervert.'
Yanny was made incredibly aroused by him as she hugged his neck and stared intensely at him. She grinned and said, "You know your fiance is just standing outside that door. Is this an affair then?"
Shayne grinned and said, "Isn't this much better?"
He felt no shame at all.
The woman inched closer to his ear with her red lips as she said, "Well… You should really try harder then or else, I'll be really disappointed."
Shayne squeezed her chin with his long fingers while a subtle grin could be seen at the bottom of his eyes. "What did you say earlier?"
Shayne then lowered his head and kissed her lips as he asked, "Do you like it?"
Yanny replied, "... It's still acceptable."
Cara knocked on the door again as she said, "Hey, Shayne, I'm coming in now?"
Cara's hand reached for the door handle.
Yanny was hugging Shayne on the other side of the door as she completely allowed Shayne to do whatever he wanted to her and said, "Your fiance’s about to come in."
'That sounds naughty?'
Shayne had decided to show how naughty he truly was to her.
…
Cara had a bitter look on her face after she heard the noises from the other side of the door.
She felt slightly helpless as she held onto the plate of fruits, completely stunned.
"They do this all the time."
Cara was startled and nearly dropped the plate of fruits on the ground. When she looked back, all she could see was Samantha staring right back at her while hugging her arm.
"Why did you scare me from behind like that?"
Samantha raised her brows and said, "You're just too focused on eavesdropping."
Cara was furious and embarrassed after being exposed. Her face was puffy and red while it felt warm as well. She then rushed downstairs feeling flustered and furious with her plate of fruits.
Samantha took a glance at the door, shook her head, and said, "Wow, my brother sure is an animal."
…
Yanny began filming for her role as Female Extra Three after a month. Since her role was very plot-heavy, she applied for a very long leave of absence from school.
Since Yanny was worried that she might fail her finals from skipping so many classes, she brought along her textbooks and other learning materials with her. She would act while studying at the same time.
The film Beyond the Limits was set in ancient times. The role Yanny was playing had feelings for Male Extra One. He was a manipulative man and according to the script’s plot, it turned out that they would be sharing a very abusive relationship. They would often scheme and plot together.
Yanny was sitting in bed while reading her script the night before her shoot. Just as she was about to fall asleep and set her phone to flight mode, she scrolled through her Messenger app and sent Shayne a text.
[I'll be shooting in the wilderness tomorrow. Shayne and I won't be in the city for a month after that. Take care of yourself and I love you.]
She was afraid of Shayne showing up in an empty apartment when she sent the text.
Based on Shayne's temper, he would no doubt be driven mad if he showed up to an empty apartment.
Thus, Yanny decided to inform him beforehand.
Although they barely met more than two to three times the entire month, they would still meet each other at least once a month on average. However, they would do nothing else but activities that involved a bed during their meetings.
Shayne was still working overtime in his office when he received the text. He was wracking his head open with a huge business deal he had recently received and had spent the last couple of days sleeping in his office.
Jake was sleeping next to him and was kicked awake by Shayne.
Jake wiped the drool off his mouth and asked after being slightly awake, "Do you want some coffee, President Jinn?"
"No. I need to head out now. You can head home to take a shower and go to sleep. Inform those folks that the meeting will be held tomorrow morning at ten."
Jake nodded his head and said, "Alright. Where will you be heading off to, President Jinn? Let me drive you there."
Shayne loosened his tie and said, "No, there's no need for that."
When Jake looked at the calendar on the desk, he came to a swift realization.
'Oh, Miss Yanny will begin her shoot for the movie 'Beyond the Limits' in the wilderness tomorrow. So is President Jinn going to enjoy his youthful vice in the middle of the night?'
Sadly for Jake, all he could do was return home and sleep after pulling several all-nighters.
…
In the River Road apartment.
Yanny was about to switch off the lights and go to sleep after reading the script till 12.30am. However, just as she had just fallen asleep, she heard the door open in her dazed state.
Yanny thought that a burglar had entered her house.
She grabbed a glass vase in the dark and gently got out of bed.
Fortunately for Shayne, he was quite nimble and very reactive so he grabbed her wrist immediately and asked, "Are you trying to murder your sugar daddy?"
Yanny was startled as she asked, "Shayne? Why are you here?"
"What do you mean why? If it wasn't me, then would it be some random man?"
She sounded very disappointed from her tone of voice.
Yanny chuckled as she apologized. "I mean, I didn't expect you to show up at this hour."
Yanny put her glass vase down as Shayne reached out to hug her waist with one arm before pinning her against the wall and asking in a soft tone, "Didn't you text me to tell me that you'd be going to shoot your scenes tomorrow?"
"Yeah, and I might not be able to see you for more than a month, Shayne," Yanny said with a depressed tone.
Shayne said, "Judging the tone of your voice, you seem quite glad about it?”
Yanny was speechless.
"If you will, well… You're not allowed to interact with other male actors intimately with the excuse of shooting a scene for the movie."
Yanny stared intensely at him as she said, "I won't."
After hearing her reply, Shayne smiled and released her before picking up the bowl of noodles from the table as he started eating it.
Shayne looked very attractive while he ate. However, he was eating really fast and it did not take long for him to clear the bowl.
Shayne went to take a shower after that. Yanny was already done cleaning up by the time he got out of it as she bluntly asked him, "What else do you want to do tonight?"
Shayne stared at her for a long time before finally, a subtle flirtatious glint could be seen flashing across his eyes as he said, "I'm exhausted."
The man then turned around and entered the room with a huge smile on his face.
On the other hand, Yanny was blushing heavily while she stood there completely frozen.
She was only asking a simple question. How could he think that she was intentionally asking for it?
After Yanny entered the bedroom, she was pulled onto the bed from behind by Shayne.
Shayne rested his chin on her shoulder and Yanny was unable to see his face.
Shayne warned her by whispering into her ear before they fell asleep, "Don't you dare do a kissing scene while away in the wilderness right under my nose, okay?"
Yanny was speechless.
It seemed like he absolutely minded the fact that his woman was shooting kissing scenes.
Yanny turned around in his arms, facing him as he said, "I've read through the script already and there are no kissing scenes for my character."
Shayne stared at her with his dreamy eyes as he said coldly, "You seem disappointed."
"No… I just found it odd since there are some parts where there should be a kissing scene involved though."
Shayne's gaze dimmed as he said, "Yanny."
He suddenly called out to her.
Yanny's heart thumped as she nervously said, "I… I meant to say that it just feels off to me and it's not because I want to have a kissing scene."
Not to mention, who would actually enjoy acting out a kissing scene? It actually felt very embarrassing when she had to kiss a complete stranger in front of countless cameras and staff.
Moreover, kissing scenes were very easy to mess up and usually took more than ten takes to get it right. Her mouth would be kissed rotten.
Shayne glared at her and did not say another word. He seemed to be ignoring her after a brief moment as he faced his back toward her and went to sleep.
Yanny stared at him with a cautious gaze while resting on her arm as she asked, "Are you mad, Shayne?"
Shayne remained silent.
'Goddammit, I'm just really tired.'
The woman hugged his waist with her slender arm from behind while nuzzling up against his broad back as she spoke in a gentle voice, "If I actually start thinking about other men in the wilderness, can you come over and visit me, Shayne?"
Shayne smiled as he allowed her to cuddle up with him while he slept.
