However, the production team severely underestimated Lucas's popularity. As soon as Lucas appeared, the entire pedestrian street was flooded with fans. Some fanatics cried on the spot, sitting on the ground and shouting Lucas's name. There were even those who clashed with security, determined to get close to Lucas and speak to him in person. The scene quickly descended into chaos. Amanda watched from the bus, frowning repeatedly. "Does this director have any experience? Filming on the street with a star requires proper security measures. If this continues, the situation will become uncontrollable." Emily was also worried. Most of Lucas's fans were school-aged girls. The security guards didn't dare to push them and couldn't persuade them either. The guards were at a loss, and the intense enthusiasm of the girls was overwhelming and almost out of control. "Hello? This is Amanda. Yes, yes, I'm Lucas's agent. Didn't you hire more security? ... This won't work. Lucas's safety is at risk..." Amanda was anxiously making calls, and Emily watched as more and more people gathered below, her worry growing. She had seen the fervor of Lucas's fans before, but today's scene was truly startling. "...You should film the other parts first. We'll reschedule Lucas's part... Yes, good, arrange for someone to escort Lucas to the car. We'll take him back first." Amanda hung up the phone and said to Emily, "Let's go, Emily. We can't film today. If we wait any longer, Lucas will get crushed." Emily immediately stood up with her makeup box. "Should we wait in the car?" "Yes, you go ahead. I'll check on Lucas. This director is too unreliable. He didn't hire proper security. These guards are just borrowed from the neighboring mall..." Amanda said, hurriedly getting off the bus and rushing into the mall. Many of Lucas's fans recognized Amanda, knowing she was his agent. They surrounded her as she apologized and made her way through the crowd, still on the phone. When Emily got off the bus, the situation was even worse. Lucas's makeup transformations at concerts had made her a hit online. Combined with her beauty and pleasant personality, Emily was now a well-known figure among Lucas's fans.Her striking appearance caught attention immediately. As soon as she got off the bus, a fan shouted, "That's Lucas's makeup artist!" Emily was startled and hadn't even reacted before a group of fans surrounded her. "Emily, please give this diary to Lucas. I write a page for him every day." "And this fan. It's so hot today; don't let Lucas get heatstroke!" Emily looked at her own long-sleeve shirt and smiled silently. A girl with tear-streaked makeup pleaded, "Emily, you have to watch out for Lucas. Chloe is very manipulative. She's just using Lucas's popularity to gain fans. You can't let her harm Lucas!" Emily felt helpless; there was nothing she could do about that. It was the director's decision, and she was just a makeup artist, powerless to change it. Suddenly, she heard someone calling her name from afar. "Emily—" That voice... The scene exploded. The nearest female fans screamed. "It's Lucas! It's Lucas, ahhhh!" "Is Lucas coming for Emily?" "It seems so!!! And Lucas just called Emily's name... they seem very close..." Emily had a bad feeling. These female fans were extremely possessive of Lucas, hardly allowing any woman to get close to their idol. She didn't want to be the target of rumors and attacks again. "You're mistaken," Emily quickly explained. "Lucas must need me to touch up his makeup. He wants to look his best for you. He's always thinking about you." The fans looked at her skeptically. "Really?" Though it sounded a bit far-fetched, Emily nodded. "That's it. I have to go work now. Please stay safe."With that, she hurried away. Just then, Lucas arrived, pushing through the crowd to her. He protected her with his arm, acting as her bodyguard, preventing others from crowding her. Emily frowned. "Why did you come? Aren't you afraid of being swarmed by these fans?" "Amanda wanted to come, but she's a woman and not strong enough to get through," Lucas looked at her abdomen. "You're pregnant; I can't let a pregnant woman take the risk for me." Emily felt a warmth in her heart. "Thank you." "Let's get out of here." Lucas protected her to the car, helping her in before getting in himself. As soon as the car door closed, Amanda urgently said, "Please drive quickly. If we wait any longer, the road will be blocked." The car slowly started, with persistent fans chasing after it, the driver constantly honking. It took half an hour to travel just 500 meters. Once the car joined the flow of traffic and escaped the fans, Amanda finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Emily, are you okay?" Emily said. "I'm fine. The fans didn't do anything extreme. They just wanted me to give these things to Lucas." She placed the items on the car's back seat. There were diaries, small toys, and several little fans with Lucas's photo on them. Amanda sighed. "I spoke with the director. They didn't hire much security. But this is the city center. There's no way it wouldn't be crowded." "Amanda, do I still have to participate in this show?" "Of course you do. We've signed a contract. If we back out, it's a breach." Amanda said, "The director will film the other couples today. We'll reschedule your part."
