Chapter 111
“So, does this mystery script also incorporate reflections on human nature?” In
the restaurant, Brielle talked with Kenzo about the new script he was currently
working on. It was rare for Brielle to engage so openly with someone of the
opposite sex, and her genuine smiles and the clear light in her eyes were a
testament to how much she was enjoying their conversation.
“Like, how should one live their life? Pursuing happiness or sticking to duties —
which is the right course of action? Is indulgence the correct path? Should we
blindly follow the truths. professed by experts? Does an individual have the right
to make their own choices? Should the majority opinion dictate the political
narrative? Your previous scripts touched on these themes, but my favorite has to
be the one from last year.”
She had watched that drama series the previous year, not merely to flatter him,
but because she had thoroughly researched and admired it.
Kenzo looked up, his fingers idly tracing the rim of his mug, “I liked that script too.
I didn’t even want to adapt it into a TV show at first; I felt like no actor could
embody the protagonists the way I envisioned them. Luckily, the casting turned
out to be a success in the end.”
“In my eyes, you are a true artist,” Brielle remarked, echoing the conclusion she
had reached back in the library.
Kenzo, hailed as a genius scriptwriter, had many sought-after scripts under his
belt, each selling for millions. During interviews, he had even confessed that his
adapted TV scripts were not his most satisfying works; the ones he valued most
had been destroyed by his own hands.
He spoke these words with a nonchalant smile to the cameras, having created a
world, seen its beauty, and then, with a touch of pride and fulfillment, razed it to
the ground.
Even if Kenzo hadn't been born into the prestigious Barnes family, his character
would likely be the same — like a romantic outlaw or the grandeur of ruins.
He wrote of his ideals; though they might be impoverished, mundane, or
outdated, they were ideals nonetheless, lending him an extraordinary allure that
was independent of his lineage.
“That's why you've never changed,” Brielle mused, stirring her coffee as her
eyelashes fluttered down.
Her phone rang at that moment, her brow furrowed upon seeing Spencer's name
flashing across the screen, and without hesitation, she hit decline.
Spencer was relentless, calling again immediately. He's like a lion in fury, if
Brielle were before him now, he would have been hard-pressed not to strangle
her.
Just a minute earlier, his drinking buddies had tagged him in a group chat,
bombarding him with photos of Brielle dining with Kenzo.
Enraged, Spencer's face turned crimson as he kicked over the coffee table at
home. He couldn’t fathom how this woman, whom he had dismissed, could be
associated with Kenzo, who,

despite his amiable demeanor, was innately aloof.
Fuming, Spencer learned the diner’s location and drove there, intent on
confronting the presumptuous woman who, in his eyes, had become too brazen
because of his previous leniency.
Unaware of Spencer's approach, Brielle rose to settle the bill only to be informed
that it had been taken care of.

“Then let me transfer you the money, minus the discount,” she offered.
Kenzo's lips curved in a gentle smile, “No need. Next time I'm working on a
variety show script, just give me some feedback, alright?”
“Absolutely,” Brielle agreed readily, “I'm more than happy to help out.”
As they were speaking, a flashy sports car pulled up nearby, causing Brielle’s
heart to skip a
beat.
Spencer emerged from the car, his face a mask of fury. Spotting the pair chatting
amiably, he strode over.

He turned his scornful gaze to Kenzo, his voice dripping with sarcasm, “You don’t
really think Kenzo would fall for you, do you? Ever heard about Tiffanie and him?
You think he gave Tiffanie a second glance, even after all she did for him? Let's
