Chapter 2

Blaine, of course, wasn't going to delete it.

Not only did he not delete it, but he also said, "I'm so tired of this pathetic attitude of yours."

At first, he found it quite amusing, but now it was increasingly annoying.

Actually, it's not just him; I find it annoying too.

I've been like this since I was a child. Because of my personality, I was often bullied in school for being timid.

After graduating from college, despite being untrained, I was discovered by a talent scout because of my looks and signed with a company.

At that time, I was very scared. I couldn't act, didn't understand contracts, and was clueless about social interactions.

But the talent scout told me:

"The entertainment industry, at its core, is just entertainment, you understand?"

"Who told you that you need to be a good actor? Your face is your greatest asset!"

"As for contracts, you don't need to worry about them. I'll arrange a manager and assistant for you."

And just like that, I entered the entertainment industry.

With the company's strong support, I quickly stood out.

Without acting in a single drama, I successfully gained twenty million fans by playing the role of a naive and clueless character on reality shows.

It was around that time that I met Blaine.

He didn't often appear on reality shows, but every drama he starred in had high ratings.

I was a fan of his too.

We started dating during the filming of The Capture of Truth, which had three episodes.

He liked my personality, thought I was very innocent, and it triggered his protective instincts.

I, on the other hand, liked his intelligence and seriousness.

In The Capture of Truth, each episode had a case to solve.

Blaine always accurately guessed the culprit.

When everyone else was too scared to open their eyes because of the creepy sound effects, he would hold my hand in a corner where the cameras couldn't see.

Then he would softly comfort me, "It's all fake, don't be scared."

At that time, having never been in a relationship, I was deeply captivated by his charm.

But less than three months later, he wanted to break up with me.

It turned out that when he said I was innocent and triggered his protective instincts, he just meant I was easy to control.

Once the novelty wore off, he dumped me without hesitation.

The night the paparazzi caught me, I shamelessly went to the restaurant where he was having dinner.

I begged him, "Please, don't break up with me."

He said, "What do you have besides your looks?"

"Such an obvious answer, everyone else could see it, but you couldn't."

"Izabella, everyone else is pretending to be dumb, but you're genuinely dumb."
