Meru 

On the day they broke up, Keira Hardin’s boyfriend, the Best Actor, ran three red lights but still couldn’t make it in time to see her board the plane

Once she was on the plane, he went into a frenzy, sending message after message

I was not serious with her, do you really have to be like this?” 

**I’ll go get that bracelet back right now, is that okay?” 

I’m sorry, I won’t give away anything you gave 

Don’t do this to me. I’m going to go mad.” 

Please pick up the call!” 

me again, please come back.” 

The desperation through the screen made Keira’s heart ache, but it quickly faded away. For days, she blocked his contacts, only for new messages to pour in

Eventually, she had no choice but to pull out her SIM card and get a new one

She thought to herself that she wouldn’t look back anymore

The day she bought the plane ticket was also the day the Dragon Film Festival Awards Ceremony was held

Best Actor Andres Finley

I’d like the sandalwood bracelet Mr. Finley is wearing, if that’s okay?Marlee asked

The moment the words left her mouth, the entire room fell silent

Everyone in the industry knew that Andres had a sandalwood bracelet he treasured dearly and never took off

It had been with him since his debut

There had been rumors that Andres had once been offered a luxury watch endorsement deal

The brand asked him to wear only their watch, not the sandalwood bracelet. Andres had turned them down

He’d rather forgo the endorsement than take off the bracelet

In the end, the brand designed a special Zeninspired watch for him that complemented the bracelet

Was Marlee out of her mind, asking for Andres’s bracelet

The host on stage was stunned, not knowing what to do

Everyone was waiting for Andres to turn her down

But to their surprise, he simply smiled softly and removed the bracelet from his wrist, placing it gently on Marlee’s

Keira sat quietly in the audience, watching the entire scene unfold

No one knew that Andres, the movie star, had been her boyfriend for five years

one knew that the bracelet had been something she had acquired, step by step, while climbing tre thousand stairs of Mount Foraker

And no one knew that the patterns carved on the bracelet were her own handiwork. On stage, Marlee waved her wrist excitedly

Thank you, Mr. Finley, for your guidance and encouragement. I’ll keep working hard and bring more great work to the audience.” 

Her voice was as sweet as she was

Andres smiled faintly, then glanced toward Keira’s seat, which was already empty

His smile faded slightly

Keira made her way back to the company, overhearing people discuss the interaction between Andres and Marlee at the awards ceremony

She had known Andres for seven years, been in a relationship with him for five, and had been there every step of the way, from his days of obscurity to his rise to movie star status. No matter how tiring or difficult it was, she endured it all for him

When they first started dating, she’d seen a picture of Marlee on Andres’s phone childhood friend, a neighbor He had explained

So, Keira took on multiple roles. She was Andres’s agent, his assistant, his photographer But never once was she herself

On the rare occasions when there were no filming schedules, Andres would hold her close of th couch, and they’d dream of the future together

Kiki, when I become a movie star, I’ll propose to you and give you the grandest wedding, okay

She’d wrap 

her arms around his waist, nodding

For that moment, she gave everything she had, and Andres worked just as

Andres explained that Marlee had no one in the country, and the entertainment industry was full of dangers. As her older brother, he had to look out for her, given their long history

hold back the bitterness in her gaze

Keira wiped her eyes but couldn’t 

Their bond was strong again

What about her

For two years, Andres had guided Marlee through everything, scripts and endorsements. Keira had tolerated it all

But in the end, he even gave away the bracelet

Why had she fallen in love with Andres in the first place

Keira thought about it

Was it because they both had the shared pain of being orphans or was it because he had saved her from drowning

But there were many people who shared the same pain. Why did it have to be him, the one and only

Was it because he had saved her life? Over the years, she had given up her career for him and fought tirelessly to help him achieve his dreams. Surely that debt was paid now? When she looked up again, her expression was calm

Two years had almost drained all her love

Back in her office, out of habit, she checked Twitter

#MovieStarAndresGivesMarleeHisBraceletThatHeWoreForYears

The hashtag was trending high, and it was about to be the trendiest piece of news

Her fingertips trembled

She clicked on it. The first post was a video

It was a fan edit of Marlee asking Andres for the bracelet

At the ceremony, Andres had his back to Keira. She did not see his expression

It was then that she noticed his face

The usually stern man had a gentle smile as he carefully placed the bracelet onto Marlee’s wist. The shippers went wild in the comments. In less than half a day, the video had over three mi likes

The video looped automatically

As it replayed the moment Andres casually removed the bracelet, Keira suddenly recalled the time she had put it on for him, his face full of surprise and love

She raised her hand to clutch her chest, a dull, lingering pain taking over. *Her phone felt hot in her hand. She tossed it onto the desk

The video kept playing, over and over again

The night deepened, and the only light in the room Someone opened the door, and the light flicked on

came from the screen

Chapter 1 Argument and the shop 

Koira lifted her hand to shield her eyes. At that moment, her phone died When Andres saw her exhausted appearance, he furrowed his brow slightly. Why did you leave early? I searched everywhere before I realized you were gone.” He walked over and reached qut to touch her face

Keira turned her head away, leaning against the nearby chair

*She looked up, her eyes betraying no emotion

Why do you look upset? Did someone upset you?Andres asked nonchalantly. Though she had already made up her mind, it wasn’t the first time he had treated her like this. Keira’s heart, which had just begun to settle, throbbed with pain once again

She forced a smile, but it didn’t reach her eyes

Andres, the bracelet fits you perfectly. But for Marlee, it might be too big. Should I get it back and adjust it for her?” 

Andres frowned, explaining,On stage today, I couldn’t refuse her. Marlee is just going through a phase, you know?” 

That bracelet doesn’t suit her anyway. If she gets tired of it, I’ll take it back in a few days.” 

Andres understood this was a bit inappropriate

But on stage, he couldn’t bear to disappoint Marlee, even if it was just a playful remark

He couldn’t let her lose face in front of the audience

Keira didn’t want him to keep it on, but he could just get it back once she was done with it

Such a trivial matter wasn’t worth making a scene over

He reached out to comfort her with a hug

Keira pulled away once more.Don’t touch me. I don’t want your hands on me after they’ve touched another woman’s.” 

What do you mean by that?Andres’s face darkened

Keira replied bluntly, Break up.”
