Soon, other cast members would be heading to makeup, and it would be crowded. Bennett leaving then would be too conspicuous.
So he had to leave early.
By the time Yvonne finished washing up, Bennett was fully dressed.
She walked over and threw herself into his arms, not wanting him to go.
"I'll come see you when I have time." Bennett bent down and gave her a firm kiss on the lips.
Despite his reluctance, Bennett released her, opened the door, and left.
The hotel hallway was still empty.
Bennett strode towards the elevators.
Suddenly, the door to a room right next to the elevators opened, and Mignon walked out, followed by her assistant.
She was saying something to her assistant, her attitude clearly unpleasant, while the assistant kept her head down, looking like she was enduring it.
After snapping at her assistant, Mignon looked up and saw Bennett walking towards her.
Her eyes lit up instantly. She subconsciously smoothed her long hair and hurried over in her high heels.
"Ben!"
Bennett had a good memory and remembered who Mignon was. He gave her a polite nod in greeting.
"Ben, you..." Mignon started to say as she got close to him, but Bennett had already walked past her without stopping and entered the elevator.
Before Mignon could react, the elevator doors slowly closed, and Bennett was gone.
Mignon froze, stunned for a long moment.
"Ms. Powell," the assistant called out cautiously.
"Ben... did he not see me just now?" Mignon asked blankly.
