When Allonzo Hobson spoke those words, the director and the screenwriter were dumbstruck. The meal was going so smoothly; how did things take such a sudden turn?
The atmosphere felt like it had instantly frozen.
The director had to admit that his mind had never worked as swiftly as it did now.
He suddenly turned to Daisy Zane.
A female lead and a supporting female, both equally crucial characters. The director was aware of the tense relations between them and had also heard of Lilian Lopez ostracizing Daisy Zane with everyone else.
But Daisy Zane gave her all while filming every day and kept to herself, completely ignoring those who slighted her. He too, having been busy, overlooked all the backstage drama.
Daisy Zane obviously knew Allonzo Hobson and the young aristocrat next to him.
Pretending not to know them on the set was probably to avoid any gossip, which was why Allonzo Hobson didn't expose it either.
