I drove around aimlessly for a while before heading home.

When I got back, Seraphina had already changed into her pajamas and came to hug me with her hair still wet.

"Honey, where did you go? You're back so late."

"I met with a director to discuss some opportunities for you."

At the mention of opportunities, Seraphina perked up, excitedly leaning in close, but I dodged to the side.

"It's hot."

"Oh." She didn't notice anything odd about my behavior, just eagerly pressed for details: "Was it a movie director?"

Seraphina was desperate to break into films now, but I didn't think she should rush it.

Her popularity had just exploded, and many of her fans hadn't solidified yet.

With her current acting skills, she still needed more practice. Jumping into movies too soon would only hurt her reputation.

So I told her: "Not movies, it's a period drama. The director and production team are excellent, it'll be good practice..."

"What? Didn't I tell you I want to do movies?"
