Imogen and the three of them took a flight to Melbourne the next day.
They enjoyed themselves all the way until the evening before finally finding a restaurant to have
dinner.
Just as they were having dinner, Liam received a message from Carter.
[Liam, your travel plans are ruined. Summer Love starts filming in two days. Return to the country as soon as possible.]
When Liam saw this message, his mind went blank for a moment.
He rubbed his eyes, making sure he wasn’t mistaken. [Carter, you’re not joking, are you? Wasn’t Summer Love supposed to start filming after Christmas?]
[It was announced in the group just now that the schedule has been moved forward.]
Liam couldn’t accept it at all. [Why is it so sudden?]
[I’m not entirely sure about that either. I didn’t hear about it before. It will help if you come back tomorrow. I’ll have the assistant book a flight for you. If you miss the opening ceremony, the media will start speculating again.]
As soon as he thought about returning tomorrow, Liam felt his inner world collapse. He asked weakly. [Can I take a leave?]
[What do you think?]NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
The other supporting actors could join the production a few days later.
But Liam played the male lead in the film. Moreover, his recent busy schedule for other commitments hasn’t been a secret. The crew members were well aware of his availability and knew that he didn’t have any ongoing work at the moment.
Liam had a look of bitterness on his face, appearing quite uncomfortable.
In short, he felt really distressed.
His trip ended before it even began!
Upon seeing him, Imogen swallowed what was in her mouth and asked, “Liam, what’s wrong? Why do you look like this? Did something happen?”
Liam let out a long sigh, leaning back in the chair with a sense of hopelessness. His hands fidgeted as he found no comfortable position, and he couldn’t help but wish to strangle the person who had decided to move up the filming schedule.
“Yeah. What’s going on?” Charlie also asked.
Liam took a deep breath, his face filled with sorrow, and said, “I have to go back tomorrow.”
“What’s going on? Didn’t you have no work already?” Imogen asked while enjoying a bite of pork chop, savoring its tenderness and deliciousness.
“I had a script in hand, and it was supposed to start filming after Christmas. I don’t know why it suddenly got moved up.” Liam’s tone was frustrated and resigned when he said this.
He had worked extra shifts for God knows how many days just to finish all his urgent work at hand, and the result was an earlier start for the filming.
Imogen didn’t know what to say either. “How could it suddenly be moved up? I’ve only heard of delays, never heard of things being moved up.”
“I don’t know. It’s probably a request from the investors.” Liam replied.
“Well, there’s no other way then. You should go back tomorrow and focus on your filming. We’ll meet up again when we have time.” Imogen said.
Hearing what Imogen had said, Liam felt even more disheartened.
“Sometimes things don’t go as planned. Let’s have a toast and wish you all the best on your journey.” Charlie poured them both some wine.
Liam was filled with frustration at this moment. He lifted a glass of wine, gulped it down, and angrily declared, “If I find out who decided to start filming early, I’ll make sure they regret it!”
“Alright, let’s eat quickly. You have a flight to catch tomorrow. Besides, when you’re working in the future, there should be opportunities for you to come here again.”
“It’s not the same,” Liam groaned while holding his head, still struggling to accept the situation entirely.
His carefully planned trip with Imogen was canceled just like that!
His golden opportunity!
Liam had initially planned to confess his feelings to Imogen after the trip, but now…
He could only console himself and wait a bit longer.
Right now, Imogen had yet to completely move on, so confessing might not necessarily be successful.
The next day, Imogen and Charlie accompanied Liam to the airport.
The airport terminal was bustling with people coming and going.
A crowd had gathered not far away beneath the large departure schedule screen. It was a chaotic scene with many people, and some were even holding signs as if they were there to pick someone
1. up.
Imogen paused and said, “How about we just accompany you up to this point? The check–in counter is over there. I’m not going with you any further.”
Liam glanced at his watch, reluctant to part but said, “Alright, you guys can go back. Don’t delay your trip. We’ll meet up when you’re back in the country.”
Imogen was about to say something when suddenly a loud shout came from behind, “There’s Liam
over there!”
As soon as the words were spoken, a multitude of footsteps came rushing toward them from behind.
Imogen turned around and saw the tidal wave of people surging toward them like ants. She didn’t even have time to react before knew it, she was already surrounded by a crowd and kept getting squeezed and pushed by them.
Countless people pushed past her, leaving Imogen feeling disheveled and flustered.
The crowd grew even more frenzied, and suddenly a strong force crashed into her. Imogen fell to the ground, her cries of surprise drowned out by the clamor. Immediately, someone stepped over her legs.
Countless legs passed by her, some accidentally stepping on her and others inadvertently kicking her.
Imogen’s cries were drowned out, unnoticed by the crowd.
12:35
Someone stepped on her back just as she was about to get up.
High heels landed near her ear, grazing her head as they were stepped on.
Imogen put her hands over her head, shielding herself as the crowd flowed past.
With the air thinning at the bottom, Imogen struggled to breathe, feeling dizzy and lightheaded.
Unfortunately, someone kicked her head, and that person almost stumbled. That person kicked Imogen forcefully and cursed, “What’s wrong with this person? Why lie on the ground?”
Imogen felt intense pain all over her body and felt like she had fainted.
Just as she was on the verge of losing consciousness, she suddenly found herself in a warm and broad embrace.
She was lifted off the ground, cradled in someone’s arms, and carried out of the crowd.
At that moment, Imogen felt immense gratitude in her heart. She couldn’t believe she was still alive.
Her nostrils were filled with a familiar scent, and Imogen thought it might be her imagination. An unmistakable voice sounded in her ears, “Someone’s hurt! Make way!”
Why did the voice sound so familiar?
As Imogen looked up, she saw Troy’s stern face.
Half of his face was illuminated by the sunlight, resembling a deity as he stood against the light, rescuing her from the quagmire.
An indescribable emotion welled up in Imogen’s heart for a fleeting moment.
She murmured in astonishment, “Troy? Is it you??”
Troy glanced at Imogen with a faint expression, a trace of hostility flickering in his Disappointed that it’s me?”
“Why are you here? Have you been following me?”
The thought of this possibility made Imogen’s expression turn serious again.
She had been deceived by Troy again!
He was such a liar!
eyes. “What?
“If I hadn’t been here, you might still be lying inside! You could have even died in there without anyone knowing.” Troy said with an air of righteousness. “Or should I put you back in there again?”
Troy made a gesture of walking back.
“Don’t!” Imogen hurriedly wrapped her arms around Troy’s neck.
Beggars couldn’t be choosers.
Seeing the smile on Troy’s face, she knew she had been fooled. How could he have possibly considered putting her back?
Imogen felt a bit annoyed and punched his chest in frustration.
Troy let out a muffled groan, “I saved you, and this is how you treat your lifesaver?”
Imogen tilted her head slightly and mumbled, “Thank you.”
Although she was a bit reluctant, Imogen had to thank Troy. Without him, she might have died. 1 her head and looked in the direction of the crowd. “What’s going on? Are these

fans here to welcome Liam? They seem too infatuated.”
Troy’s face darkened, and said, “You’re worried about him when you should be taking care of yourself. If it weren’t for him attracting these people, would the incident just now have happened?”
“Oh right, and Charlie!”
“She’s a grown woman. She would not have gone missing. I’ll take you to the hospital first.”
