"Okay then, it has been decided. Zane will play himself in the movie, right?"
"W—Wait, I haven't—"
Before Lance could voice his objection, Madeline released her hug and spun around. She brazenly opened the door and shouted at the directors and Zane, "Okay! You can be part of the movie, Zane Eastwood. You will be playing as yourself!"
Zane's face brightened as he knew he still had a chance to warm her up.
"Maddy, thank you so—"Zane began, moving toward Madeline for a hug, but Lance suddenly stood behind her, watching Zane and the others with his viper-like gaze.
Zane's body stiffened. He could only refrain himself and thanked her formally.
Madeline gave him a warning smile before she said, "Alright, you can leave now, Zane. We're still trying to find the right person to play as my boyfriend."
Zane smiled bitterly before he turned around and left.
