“Don’t you think it’s exhausting?” Jordan asked, worried,
Milly smiled warmly. “Not at all. I love acting, and when you love something; it’s never exhausting.”
Seeing her enthusiasm, Jordan could only nod.

“Alright, but you don’t need to get up early tomorrow. We have a helicopter. I’ll arrange for it to take you. It will only take an hour.”
Milly was surprised. So this is what it’s like to be wealthy.
“Thanks, Jordan.”
Who would turn down a helicopter ride?
At that moment, Anthony, sitting at the table, jumped up excitedly. “I’ll be Milly’s assistant! Every big star has one, and our Milly should too!”
He had been looking for a reason to stay close to his sister, and now he had the perfect opportunity.
This is a dream come true!
The thought of spending the summer with his sister on set, without others competing for her attention, made him very happy.
“No way,” Jordan said, stopping his excitement. “You don’t have the experience and would only cause trouble for Milly. I’ll find a professional assistant for her.”
Not willing to give up, Anthony tried to convince Jordan. “I can learn.”
Jordan was firm. “By the time you master it, Milly would be done filming.”
“I don’t care. I’m going-”
Milly, holding her gift box nearby, took a deep breath and interrupted, “Actually, I’m just starting out. I don’t need an assistant. I can handle things myself.
In her past life, she had worked her way up in the acting world, starting with small roles. She knew how things worked. With her limited scenes, she didn

But Jordan objected. “No! An assistant is there for more than just helping you. They also ensure your safety
on set.
Stunts and setups needed to be checked before filming to prevent accidents if the crew were careless. If something happened, it would be disastrous.
He didn’t want to risk her safety.
Milly’s mouth twitched.

Anthony slammed the table, agreeing with Jordan. “Exactly! After your exhausting scenes, you need someone to bring you tea, water, and give you mas
Milly sighed. That’s not necessary.
Massages? What does he think acting is about?
But Anthony insisted, “Why not? You don’t know what it’s like in the entertainment industry. When I visited Jonathan on set, he took two steps and had a

*Stop making excuses, you’re just weak!” Anthony retorted.
“Hey!”
As they began arguing again after barely five minutes of peace, Jordan’s cold gaze swept over them. From NôvelDrama.Org.
Instantly, they both wilted like flowers in the sun.
Jordan looked back at Milly, his eyes softening. “Milly, go upstairs and get some sleep. Do your best tomorrow. I’ll take care of everything else.”
His words gave Milly an unexpected sense of reassurance.
She liked feeling protected by her family.
Milly smiled. “Okay. Thanks, Jordan. You should rest early too.”
“Alright.”
As Milly’s footsteps faded and the door upstairs closed, the smile disappeared from Jordan’s face, replaced by a cold, serious expression,
He drummed his fingers on the table, producing rhythmic thuds that echoed in the room like a chilling warning.
Anthony, unsure why Jordan suddenly wanted to talk, was anxious to go upstairs and talk to Milly,
Jonathan and Xavier, on the other hand, were idly playing with the tableware, not concerned about the situation.
Only Stephanie bit her lip, nervously twisting the hem of her shirt, her heart pounding.
She sensed that Jordan was angry, but she couldn’t figure out why. His earlier glare had been intimidating. like a warning-
Are they going to talk about me?
After a moment, Jordan stopped drumming his fingers and asked calmly, “Stephanie, how old are you this year?”
Stephanie’s heart skinned a beat, unsure why he was asking. She replied. “Seventeen.”

Jordan continued drumming his fingers. “Time flies. You’re seventeen already. You’ve been with the Burnetts for over a decade now.”
Stephanie nodded stiffly. “Yes.”
She had been adopted from an orphanage by the Burnetts. Her memories from that time were blurry, but she remembered the elegant woman who had
After that, she was brought into the Burnett family, gaining loving parents, protective brothers, and a life she had never dared to dream of.
Jordan nodded and, with a blank expression, asked, “Do you miss your biological parents?”
Shocked, Stephanie looked at him, her eyes wide. What does he mean?
Xavier and Jonathan also stared at him in disbelief, both shouting, “Jordan!”
Jordan gave them a cold look, his tone firm. Recently, a couple came to the Burnett Group claiming to be Stephanie’s biological parents. They want he
Stephanie felt like her head had exploded, leaving her in a daze.
Biological parents?
For all these years, she had lived with the Burnetts, seeing them as her real family. Carlos and Olivia were her parents, and this was her home.
“J–Jordan, I don’t know what you’re talking about. I have Mom and Dad. Why would I have biological parents?” Stephanie’s face had turned pale.
