Chapter 21

It felt like one of life's ironies. She said nothing but went to the drawer, took out a pair of gloves, and handed them to him. "Here are your gloves, as agreed."

He examined the gloves carefully and tried them on. "They're quite good and warm, just like the scarf you knitted, Sis. It's also warm and comfortable."

"You don't have to wear it. Others will think it doesn't suit you," she said. His fine clothes made the scarf look old, cheap, and rough.

"Doesn't suit me?" He raised his eyebrows and chuckled. "Sis, I don't care what others think. It only matters if I feel good about it. Take this scarf, for instance. When I say it suits me, it suits me!"

He paused, then touched the scarf again. "What's more, you knitted it. Therefore, it will suit any clothes!"

Her heart pounded. Such a remark from anyone else would seem ridiculous, but coming from him, it felt like a fact. His handsome face was full of earnestness. The scarf she knitted seemed like a priceless treasure.

"But, Sis…" He removed the gloves and pulled up a chair. Smiling, he said, "I never liked the same things as anyone else. Now that you've knitted a scarf and gloves for me, you can't knit these things for anyone else, understand?"

His smile was as bright and clear as the morning sun. It was captivating, but his words ached in her heart. Was that a warning? He was warning her not to knit for anyone else. How many in Emerald City dared disobey him?

On the day she worked as an extra, Grace arrived at the appointed time. However, Claire Watts wasn't there, and Grace didn't recognize anyone else. When the time came, the organizer checked names and led everyone to the film crew.

Today's filming location was a rented mansion nearby. Even though it was early, crowds of fans had gathered outside, some holding signs with their idols' names. When Grace saw Lily's name, her chest tightened. Lily was in the film.

The organizer had announced the film's title earlier, and Grace had intended to look it up, but she'd forgotten because of Jason's arrival. She regretted not checking the details. However, as an extra, she wouldn't likely cross paths with Lily. There might not be any trouble.
