Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 410: Cast Photo Shoot

The photographer nodded, "It’s ready, should we put these together with the current ones?"

"Yes, take some shots of them individually, then a few as a group."

"We’ll decide on the final product later."

"Alright."

While Selena Kensington was discussing with the photographer, Sloane Hawthorne and the others had already changed their clothes and walked over.

As soon as they entered the studio, the staff’s attention was drawn to them.

Sloane Hawthorne looking alluring in red, Harvey Vance radiating calmness.

Cole Vaughn exuding cool elegance in white, Ethan Linton in slightly heavy winter attire.

The appearance of the four main actors elicited several gasps of admiration in the studio.

"Wow! Best Actor Vance looks incredibly handsome in that suit!!!"

"Sloane Hawthorne’s outfit is stunning too! Stunningly beautiful!"

"Lynn Rhodes’ designs are all so beautiful..."

"Is that the Quincy Goodman that Director Kensington chose? Oh my gosh!!!"

"Guys, I’m declaring myself a fan now!"

"I’m so moved, sob sob..."

Selena Kensington was momentarily stunned upon seeing Cole Vaughn, originally thinking he wouldn’t conceal the emotions in his eyes, presenting a detached, cool demeanor as State Preceptor Quincy Goodman.

Unexpectedly, he got into character so quickly.

Standing there, who could say he wasn’t right for this role?

He seemed completely one with Quincy Goodman.

"Now that everyone is here, let’s shoot the individual shots first, and then the group ones."

Selena Kensington said to the four.

"Hmm? Ethan... hold on for the group shots, your props have not arrived yet."

In the drama, Ian Kaye often sat in a wheelchair, so Selena Kensington specifically had a wooden wheelchair custom-made.

It was more fitting for that era.

Ethan Linton was wearing winter clothes which weren’t too cold for the season.

Upon hearing Selena Kensington’s words, he nodded.

"Okay."

"Sloane, you go first, finish your shoot and then put on your coat."

Since winter was nearing, the weather was gradually turning cooler.

Fearing that Sloane Hawthorne might catch a cold later, as she wore light clothing, Selena Kensington advised her.

"Alright."

Sloane Hawthorne was not pretentious, stepping confidently onto the photo stage.

As the photographer began directing Sloane Hawthorne for the shoot, Selena Kensington moved beside Cole Vaughn.

"Is the attire comfortable?"

She inquired.

Cole Vaughn gave a slight nod, "Yeah."

There was no further expression or dialogue after that.

Selena Kensington wasn’t bothered by his detached demeanor, as that was just Cole Vaughn’s nature.

Not far away, Ethan Linton glanced towards Cole Vaughn, a hint of peculiarity flashed in his gaze.

Why did he feel something was odd about Cole Vaughn?

Almost like a machine devoid of emotions...

Once Sloane Hawthorne finished her shoot, her assistant put the coat over her shoulders.

After Sloane Hawthorne completed the shoot, she stayed quietly by Selena Kensington’s side.

When Sloane Hawthorne, Harvey Vance, and Ethan Linton had finished their shots, only Cole Vaughn was left.

At Cole Vaughn’s turn, the photographer faced a challenge.

Cole Vaughn appeared slightly sensitive to the camera flash, making it difficult for the photographer to capture him.

Finally, the photographer turned to Selena Kensington helplessly, "Miss, Mr. Vaughn seems to be unaccustomed to the flash,"

Selena Kensington thought for a moment, then walked over.

She positioned herself in front of Cole Vaughn, conveniently shielding him from the flash.

Realizing the bright flashes were no longer there, Cole Vaughn blinked slightly, lifting his head.

In his view was Selena Kensington’s face, engraved into his memory.

At that moment, her eyes held a hint of concern as she looked at him, "Cole, are you sensitive to the flash?"

Cole Vaughn pursed his lips slightly.

Not sensitive, but it reminded him of memories he wished to leave behind.

"...No, just a bit unaccustomed."

Facing Selena Kensington, Cole Vaughn chose to lie.

Deep down, he didn’t want those painful, sordid past events revealed to Selena Kensington.

Even a subtle hesitance and panic, unbeknownst to himself, flickered within him.

Upon hearing Cole Vaughn’s words, Selena Kensington breathed a sigh of relief.

She heard that Cole Vaughn had never had the chance to perform in Sylva before, as his previous agency never offered opportunities. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Even the chance to attend the Gorgeous Award ceremony was due to a company-arranged person having a sudden issue, allowing him to step in.

Therefore, his initial discomfort towards the flash was understandable.

These were normal reactions, Selena Kensington thought and comforted him for a while, "No worries, if uncomfortable, we can turn off the flash."

Cole Vaughn shook his head slightly, "No need."

Hearing Cole Vaughn’s refusal, Selena Kensington didn’t insist.

She returned to her original position.

"Alright, when I call his name, that’s your moment to capture several shots."

Selena Kensington instructed the photographer.

The photographer swiftly understood Selena Kensington’s intent and nodded.

Following Selena Kensington’s words, Cole Vaughn seemed much calmer now.

His gaze was composed and distant looking at the camera, though still tinged with a bit of discomfort, it was much better than before.

The photographer seized the moment and adjusted the focus.

Suddenly, Selena Kensington called out, "Cole."

At the sound of her voice, Cole Vaughn instinctively looked towards Selena Kensington.

The photographer promptly hit the shutter.

’Click’, ’Click’...

After completing the shoot, Cole Vaughn finally realized, looking at Selena Kensington smiling back at him, "It’s done, you can step down now."

Cole Vaughn instinctively walked down.

Only after stepping down, did realization hit him.

Had he unknowingly followed this woman’s lead just now?

Cole Vaughn frowned slightly.

An unfamiliar sensation passed through him.

Later, the photographer presented the recently shot photos to Selena Kensington for review.

The results were unexpectedly excellent.

Cole Vaughn presented a detached, serene expression that also carried an air of casual indifference — perfectly captured.

After completing Cole Vaughn’s individual shots, the photographer called all four up for a group photo.

This time, Cole Vaughn showed no signs of prior discomfort, and the group shot was completed swiftly.

After the shoot, Selena Kensington told them to change outfits.

"Well done, that’s all for today. Everyone can go rest now."

At this moment, Lea Dutton entered the studio and walked straight to Selena Kensington.

"Sis, the inauguration ceremony—President Kensington suggested next Friday as the best date."

Since the casting was settled, Selena Kensington planned to speed up progress and make up for any previous delays.

So, Lea Dutton was asked to discuss the inauguration ceremony schedule with Hugh Kensington.

"Next Friday?"

Selena Kensington pondered, then turned to Sloane Hawthorne, "Sloane, you should be available, right?"

Sloane Hawthorne nodded, "The semester’s courses aren’t heavy, I’m free."

Thus, Selena Kensington agreed, "Next Friday it is."

"Regarding the location, President Kensington said to wait for your decision."

Lea Dutton continued.

"Okay."

"By the way, Sis..."

Lea Dutton raised another point and showed her phone’s content to Selena Kensington.

Selena Kensington scrutinized the content with a slight eyebrow raise.

"Radiance is hosting its annual banquet, and the leads of ’Marguerite Volant’ are revealed?"

Sidney Dalton’s move was indeed swift...
