"Mr. Salazar, after giving it some thought, we've decided not to accept the last-minute change to the ending. As per our contract, Tyler will allot three days to film the original script and won't partake in any additional arrangements."

Ariana didn't beat around the bush. She trusted that Francis would grasp her intentions.

Sure enough, Francis got anxious.

"Ariana, would you reconsider? The pairing of Tyler and Cole is creating quite a buzz. If we change the ending to accommodate their pairing, it will undoubtedly attract a huge fanbase."

"Mr. Salazar, Tyler is not interested in being part of a coupling. He is solely focused on his acting career." Ariana's resolve was unshakeable. If Tyler's fame hinged solely on a pairing with Cole, it would be a disaster. She wouldn't permit Cole to leverage this for his own popularity.
