The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 2032

"Sure."

With that simple affirmation, Balfour sprawled out on the bed and soon drifted into a rare comfortable slumber.

This particular night, Balfour found the elusive embrace of restful sleep.

Ivy waited for Balfour's breathing to even out, signaling he was asleep, before she quietly lay beside him, eventually succumbing to her drowsiness.

The next morning, Balfour was already off to the office.

Ivy gazed at the empty space beside her, lost in thought, then quickly freshened up and headed out the door. Today, she had a photo shoot for the costume fitting of "Ballad of Valor."

The production had hired the best styling team in the business, and they already had some looks prepared for Ivy.

Thanks to the prep work, the fitting went by swiftly.

Since it was a still photo shoot with no need for an emotional range, Ivy found the process relatively smooth.

A week later, "Ballad of Valor" officially started filming.

As the lead actress, Ivy got up at the crack of dawn on the first day of shooting. After getting through hair and makeup, she showed up on set.

"I knew it; you're the perfect fit for 'Ballad of Valor,'" Colton said, eyeing her transformation with sheer satisfaction.

When Ivy walked onto the set, Colton felt like the heroine had stepped right out of the script.

Following the crew's cues, the kick-off was formal, and Ivy felt the responsibility's weight settle on her shoulders.
