The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 2333

Despite the fact that both the director and investors were flush with cash and had no intention of shortchanging anyone's salary, there was still a collective sigh of relief when the film crew resumed production. That sentiment was shared by all.

Many who hadn't paid much attention to Ivy before now made a point to greet her when she entered the set, leaning on the crutches and assisted by Margot.

Ivy was taken aback by the sudden attention, and a crew member explained, "Ever since Mr. Howard stopped by, everyone's been aware who's responsible for getting us back on track so quickly. Of course they're more inclined to be friendly with Ms. Dunhill now, right? Besides, after the recent events, it's become clear that you're the one who's been wronged. Naturally, people are choosing to stand with you."

"Oh, is that so?" Ivy was unaware of when Balfour had come to the set to back her up, and the thought sent ripples through her heart.

If he had been as cold as he appeared, that would be one thing, but the more time they spent apart, the more she was reminded of the many things he had quietly done for her behind the scenes.

How could she easily forget him?

She hadn't realized how Balfour's presence had stealthily filled her life.

Trying to escape him now felt like finding herself with nowhere to hide.

Her expression remained composed, betraying only a hint of the joy of returning to work, which was not much different from her usual cool demeanor.

The crew members thought to themselves that Ivy was simply that kind of person, realizing they had misunderstood her aloofness for disinterest in interacting with them in the past.

Margot rolled her eyes, feeling Ivy deserved better.

After all, most people were cozying up to Ivy to get in Balfour's good graces, not because they genuinely liked her.

To put it more bluntly, they were just trying to butter up Balfour, weren't they?

Such fair-weather friends could be quite the turncoats.

Ivy gave Margot's palm a little scratch, signaling her understanding of Margot's indignation, but right now, she just wanted to focus on finishing the film.

What she hadn't cared about before mattered even less now.

When they arrived at the shooting location, everything was ready to go, and even Ivy couldn't help but catch her breath as she stepped back onto the set.
