Ian Rowe heard the sound of his own unusually fast heartbeat.

He really hadn’t expected that Maya Monroe not only constantly thought of him but also put so much effort into preparing a gift for him.

Ian Rowe took the coconut from Maya Monroe’s hand.

"Don’t do this next ti." The coconut tree is so tall, picking them must be very dangerous. He couldn’t imagine how her delicate body managed to pick the coconuts for him, it must’ve taken considerable effort.

Maya Monroe laughed inwardly, indeed, Ian definitely didn’t like it.

"I just wanted to prepare a gift for you." She had to respond a couple of lines for the sake of appearance.

Ian Rowe felt deeply moved in his heart.

When it ca ti to sleep at night, Maya Monroe hadn’t seen the coconut, and thinking about it, she guessed Ian Rowe had thrown it away.

Thinking this made Maya Monroe happier, she humd a tune, and perhaps because she was exhausted from the previous days, she felt she couldn’t resist the sleepiness as soon as her head touched the pillow.

This soft bed is truly a luxury, the leaves and hay on that broken island can’t compare at all.

Maya Monroe yawned, rubbed her eyes, and fell asleep on her side.

When Ian Rowe returned after his shower, he saw that Maya Monroe was already asleep, her tiny nostrils gently breathing.

He tucked in the quilt for Maya Monroe, and his gaze towards her held an unnoticed tenderness.

When Vincent Sumrs saw the coffee table in the living room stocked with several tis the usual amount of snacks, he realized Maya Monroe was back.

He asked Mama Wang for confirmation, and just as he suspected, Maya Monroe indeed had returned.

When Vincent Sumrs saw Ian Rowe coming downstairs holding a green coconut, he was utterly stunned.

"Ian... what’s this?"

Ian Rowe was impeccably dressed, and he didn’t appear to be half-asleep.

Ian Rowe, looking through the coconut in his hand with interest, clearly liked it.

To Vincent Sumrs, Ian Rowe’s behavior was just not normal: "Ian... are you... just exhausted to the point of confusion?"

Ian Rowe thought for a mont and seriously asked him, "Where do you think this coconut would look best?"

Vincent Sumrs couldn’t understand: "This... this is a coconut. A coconut is for eating. It’s not a decorative item or a plant, no matter where you place it, it won’t look good. Ian, even if you put it in the heavens, it’s still just a coconut!"

Ian Rowe’s expression showed displeasure, clearly unsatisfied with his answer.

When they reached the company, Vincent Sumrs realized Ian Rowe’s obsession, not only cherishing it all the way, but placing that ugly coconut in the most visible spot on the desk.

"Ian, isn’t this coconut not quite suitable here? Isn’t it a bit inelegant?"

Ian Rowe ignored his comnts and instructed him, "Later, check if there’s any way to keep a coconut fresh?"

Putting it in the fridge.

This was Vincent Sumrs’ first thought, but he knew if he said that, Ian Rowe definitely wouldn’t be satisfied...

He truly felt Ian Rowe was bewitched, he never heard of Ian having any particular beliefs, now what’s the deal with worshipping a coconut?

On the day of the "Wandering Beyond the Horizon" et-and-greet, Ryan Spencer specifically called, repeatedly reminding Maya Monroe to dress up nicely and aim to outshine everyone else.

Maya Monroe woke up late but got ready quickly.

Ryan Spencer was also waiting in the RV, and when he saw Maya Monroe, he paused for a mont before roaring, "Why didn’t you answer my call? You’re already over an hour late, and I told you to prepare well, didn’t I, Maya?!"

Although the et-and-greet had a makeup room, Ryan Spencer preferred to trust his makeup team’s skills. When planning the ti with Maya Monroe, he had accounted for makeup ti, but who could’ve guessed Maya Monroe overslept?

Maya Monroe blinked: "Sorry, Ryan, I’ve been out of sorts lately. But I’ve dressed well, haven’t left anything out, and the coat is quite thick."

Ryan Spencer held his head: "I’ve arranged the makeup team; go get a touch-up later."

For Maya Monroe, makeup was just a waste of ti and served no other purpose.

She didn’t want to wear any: "Ryan, think about it, all the other celebrities will be wearing makeup, right? You want to stand out, right?"

Ryan Spencer didn’t quite understand: "Yes."

Maya Monroe patted his shoulder: "Exactly! You see, everyone else has makeup and only I don’t; by then, I’ll certainly stand out, it’ll be a breeze to make a splash!"

Ryan Spencer had more than once experienced Maya Monroe’s knack for nonsense, if he weren’t still sensible, he’d probably have been swayed by her.

Ryan Spencer’s smile was strained: "Maya, your mouth..."

Maya Monroe took it as his agreent: "I’ve dawdled so long, surely we’re running out of ti, if we go for makeup now, we might be late. When everyone’s at the venue – the director, producer, all the artists – if I’m late, I’ll be the butt of the jokes..."

Ryan Spencer slightly frowned, what Maya said made sense.

Maya Monroe’s recently resurging fa couldn’t be allowed to crumble again.

He looked at Maya Monroe.

And truth be told... Maya Monroe’s face was blessedly unique — even without makeup, she could easily outshine other actresses.

Thinking thus, he tacitly agreed with Maya Monroe’s suggestion.

"Next ti you must get up early, or you see, you won’t even have ti for makeup."

Maya Monroe earnestly nodded, her thoughts already wandered afar.

At this mont, the dia and fans had mostly arrived, but the fan eting hadn’t officially started.

Once again, Maya Monroe encountered Shane Morgan.

Shane Morgan showed a friendly deanor: "Long ti no see, Monroe. I watched the variety show you attended recently, and your performance was truly impressive, your future prospects look promising!"

Maya Monroe smiled and nodded, while inwardly thinking Shane Morgan’s ability to complint had only improved.

When they were in the crew before, Shane Morgan often complinted her, and still does now.

Maya Monroe thought Shane Morgan, although sowhat strict on the surface, was exceptional in encouraging actors—even her poor acting could be praised to high heaven.

Shane Morgan said: "Monroe, the et-and-greet hasn’t officially started yet; why don’t you head backstage for a while? Leo Lancaster and Kiki Monroe are there, chatting could be nice."

"Alright."

Maya Monroe didn’t forget to send a ssage to Ryan Spencer, informing of her current location to avoid another chain of calls.

Before arriving, Ryan Spencer had advised her on quite a few matters, like how to capture attention on stage, how to answer dia questions, and how to gain fans’ favor...

Of course, she hadn’t paid attention to any of it.

Maya Monroe walked towards the backstage, only to stumble upon a scene she hadn’t expected...
