Nancy woke up naked and alone on the bed insider her trailer. She knew that Troy Smith had to leave in the middle of the night to avoid being seen by other people.
She breathed heavily, wondering how she was going to handle everything now that Director Smith had told her how he was going to take care of her. She absolutely did not want to leave Andrew.
There were still a few scenes left for her movie to be shot and she was not going to let anybody ruin her career which was why she had to carefully calculate everything.
She planned to disappear after the shooting and stay in hiding for a while, telling her fans that she was going to take a very long break. It seemed to be her best option at that moment.
The matter about Andrew and Troy… that will have to wait. For now, she had to focus on her movie project.
She took a quick shower and when she finished changing her clothes and doing her morning routine, she noticed a notification on her mobile phone.
Picking it up, she saw a text message from an unknown number. The look on her face appeared as if she had seen something horrifying. Her eyes grew wide and her heart began to tremble as she carefully read the words on her screen.
Unknown: [ Nancy Jung, your days are numbered. Do you think that you can keep your pregnancy a secret for a long time? ]
Quickly tapping her phone, she replied.
Nancy: [ Who is this? ]
Unknown: [ That's not important. What's important is... who's the father of your child? ]
Nancy's anger came over her. She almost threw her phone in rage when a knock on her door caught her attention.
"Miss Jung, we need you for make-up."
Clenching her fists until it turned white, Nancy composed herself and responded to the staff. "I'll be right there."
She needed to know who was threatening her. She had to do something or she will be doomed.
And as she was about to head out, one person came to mind, making her sneer. "Samantha Kim. It must be you."

Sunrise Hotel
In a large luxury bed, two people who had just finished a vigorous exercise involving lewd screams and dirty talks cuddled while their bodies were still sweaty.
The two of them seemed to be very into each other, stroking each others' naked bodies while they casually chatted as if they have all the time in the world.
"You're staying the whole night with me tonight?" Hazel asked, acting like a little animal next to Andrew.
Seeing the timid expression on her face, Andrew couldn't help but feel good about himself and played with her hair. "Do you want me to?"
Hazel pouted her face and laid on his bare chest. "Of course I do! You rarely stay with me and always stay with Nancy all the time. It seems that you really like her more than you like me."
"Why would you say that?" Andrew lifted her chin to him and kissed her feverishly. "I don't like it when you do that."
"But I can't help it. Now she's even pregnant with your child! You're never going to leave her, huh?" Hazel Kun stared at him, studying his expressions to see how he reacted.
The two of them had been seeing each other behind Nancy Jung for quite some time now. Because Andrew being Andrew, he had always been a womanizer. Whenever he and Nancy fought, Hazel was always there with him, calming him down and making him forget about his problems with Nancy by offering herself to him. Andrew had always been a philanderer and he will probably remain as one forever.
Nancy told him that she was pregnant a month ago and he almost flipped. But there was nothing he could do because Nancy was such a big asset in his company so he kept his reaction to her news to a minimum while he thought of ways on how to handle the situation. Though he had asked her to consider quitting the movie, Nancy insisted on going through with it and promised that she will be careful.
Hazel Kun, on the other hand, had always envied Nancy for all that she had – boyfriend, career, fans, etc.
She had been unlucky with her past relationships and her career was not as stable as Nancy's so she always compared herself to her friend, wanting to covet everything that she did not have.
Hazel had been crushing on Andrew for a long time, so when she had the opportunity, she grabbed the chance and started having an affair with him.
For Andrew, a woman readily gave herself to him. How could he say no?
"Are you going to continue talking about her? Because if you are, I will leave." Andrew threatened. He knew that she wanted him to stay.
"I'm sorry… I will stop talking about her now." Hazel started caressing him softly. She could only shut her mouth and submit herself. It was better than him leaving her.
"Good girl." Andrew then started giving her another round of their rigorous exercise.

Nancy's Trailer
Nancy received a few other text messages throughout the day. At first, she was very bothered about it that she had quite a few bad takes during their filming. But Director Smith was very forgiving towards her the entire time.
Choosing to focus on her work, she did not bother responding to the threat messages that she had received.
But at the end of the day, she decided to take matters into her own hands. She tapped her screen a few times and placed the phone on her ear.
"Hello?" A man's voice from the other line answered her call.
Without any greetings, Nancy ordered, "I need you to find someone for me."
"What's the name?"
"Samantha Kim."
"And then what?"
"Gather everything that you can about her and send it to me asap."
"Any specifics?"
"The dirtier the better." Nancy ended the call. A wicked smile appeared on her face as she imagined what she would do to Samantha. They had not seen each other for a long time and because of their encounter at the hospital, she was very much convinced that Samantha was behind those threats.
"Samantha Kim… you should start watching your back."
