Chapter 1299:
The agent noticed immediately. A smirk curved her lips. “Is your little lover coming to pick you up again p>
“Dorsey!” Margo exclaimed, embarrassed by her agent’s teasing. With a pout, she began replying to Dunn’s text message.
“All right, all right. Take as much time as you need. I’ll come pick you up later,” the agent said. Then she stood and left the room.
The moment Dunn received Margo’s message, he called her. Margo stared at the screen for a long time before finally answering.
“Hello p>
“Are you busy right now? Am I bothering you?” Dunn asked gently.
“No. I’m just reading a script,” Margo replied. “I’m sorry I can’t have dinner with you today. The crew suddenly added some extra scenes p>
“It’s alright. Just make sure you rest. Don’t overwork yourself, okay p>
Margo hesitated. She lowered her head, fingers slowly rubbing the hem of her clothes.
“Dunn p>
“Yes?” Dunn answered from the other end.
“I really want to see you,” Margo said softly. “Right now p>
Everything on Dunn’s end seemed to fall silent.
“Okay,” he said.
Margo stood by the hotel window, staring down at the street with a unreadable expression.
After a while, Dunn’s car came into view. The moment she spotted it, she turned and hurried out of her room.
When Dunn entered the hotel, he saw Margo coming toward him. He immediately opened his arms and pulled her into a warm embrace.

Margo buried her face against his neck, saying nothing, only holding him tightly.
“What’s wrong?” Dunn asked, gently stroking her long hair.
The hotel wasn’t empty—besides the film crew, other guests were staying there too. People slowed to stare at the couple embracing in the lobby.
When Dunn noticed someone raising a phone, likely to take a picture or video, he hurriedly covered Margo’s face with his hand.
Margo was aware of the attention, but she didn’t care. She rose on her tiptoes and kissed Dunn directly on the lips.
Her boldness caught Dunn completely off guard. He froze, and something flickered in his eyes. Still, he chose not to react.
When the kiss ended, they…
They went back to Margo’s room. Dunn reached out and brushed his fingertips lightly along her cheek.
“Are you upset p>
Margo sat on the edge of the bed and shook her head, still silent.
Dunn knelt beside the bed and looked up at her. The intensity of his gaze—so searching, so patient—made Margo’s chest ache with a sadness she couldn’t explain.
