Shaun waved his hand. "What do you know? I''m the one who has a bird''s eye view of everything, and I can tell what state you two are in as well. Trust me, now is not the time for Athena to cry.


    "She''s a strong-willed person, and in the face of Dieter''s sudden departure, she wouldn''t shed tears but instead behave defiantly. But she''ll cry her heart out when ites to the scene where he truly leaves. That would better match her character."


    Melody was thus deprived of the right to cry, and she had no choice but to swallow back her tears.


    It took a total of three takes toplete the scene. After it ended, Nathan approached Melody to offerfort. "Melody, are you okay? You seemed a bit off today."


    The people around them snapped pictures of their interaction. Melody knew Shaun was promoting his film by capturing behind-the-scenes and releasing them as a preview.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Melody forced a smile. "I''m fine. I''m really sorry for screwing up the scenes."


    Nathan pped Melody''s shoulder as if she was one of the guys. "Hey, no worries! You did great. We usually don''t nail it in one take like you do. If you put it that way, I should be the one feeling embarrassed." Melody chuckled, finding Nathan''s exaggerated response amusing.


    Little did they know, someone quickly posted a snippet of their interaction online. [Fans of MelNat-here''s more new content for you!] The photo prominently featured Nathan reaching out his hand toward Melody, who smiled faintly and appeared to be in good spirits. It seemed like she and Nathan were quite close.


    Melody held her phone and scrolled through thements section of the behind-the-scenes footage. The reactions online seemed to be quite amusing.


    [Wow, wow, wow, truly my One True Pairing. Even their faces match so well!]mented someone underneath the photo, which received thousands of likes.


    [I really don''t understand what the director is thinking. With Melody and Nathan being so popr, he should let them go on talk shows together. I''d watch that!]


    [Who else gets me? All we have now is a teaser. I''ve watched it so many times that my repeat button is broken. Not to mention, the times I''ve cried!] Manyments below resonated with these sentiments.


    [I know what you mean! I''ve also watched it so many times. I really don''t get why the director won''t let my One True Pairinge out and shine. Is he afraid they''ll be too sweet and overwhelm us?] At first, Melody did not quite understand what these fans were so enthusiastic about. She was aware that some fans tended to pair her character with others, but she did not anticipate this level of intensity. After the teaser was releasedst time, quite a few people started shipping their on-screen characters. Melody''s and Nathan''s looks matched well. Most importantly, both of them were neers to the industry, yet they disyed remarkable chemistry in every move they made. This was no easy feat indeed.


    However, none of them anticipated that their shipper fan base would be significantly ahead of fans of other pairings. Melody felt a bit concerned that having too many shipper fans might lead to interpretations that diverged from the intended direction of the film.


    On the other hand, Shaun was delighted with the situation. For him, fans from either side represented potential box-office sess.


    Melody felt a bit uneasy and wanted to find an opportunity to discuss with Nathan about addressing their rtionship online. She thought of rifying that they were just friends and there was nothing romantic between them.


    Unfortunately, she did not find the right moment, as the filming schedule had been quite tighttely.
