Chapter 3My Second Lead Broke The Script

I had transmigrated into my debut screenplay, You Are My Starlight.

It was a classic "melodramatic romance"—full of plot holes, illogical character turns, and more angst than a teenage diary. The twist was that the "Prince Charming" (Wyatt) lost the girl, and the "Best Friend" (Kael) ended up with her.

Wyatt was the titan of the industry, the CEO of the biggest studio in the country. He and I—or rather, the original Jade—were childhood sweethearts.

And because I was a hack writer back then, I used the "White Moonlight" trope twice.

Daisy and Kael had also known each other since they were kids. Daisy was the classic heroine: poor, fatherless, but stubbornly optimistic. Kael was the mysterious orphan, a mixed-race boy who had been bullied for his "exotic" looks before his beauty turned him into a superstar. Daisy had been the only one to stand by him.

Years later, Kael became a top-tier actor but lost touch with Daisy. Daisy entered the industry to pay for her mother’s medical bills and became my stunt double.

The story really kicked off when Kael and I were cast in a film together. He reunited with Daisy on set, and Wyatt noticed Daisy because she looked exactly like me.

Then came the drama.

After the wrap party, the tabloids caught a drunk Wyatt going into a hotel with "Jade." It was actually Daisy. The rumor died quickly because that same night, the real Jade—the bratty, jealous actress—wrapped her sports car around a tree.

That’s when I took over.
