Cole, feeling a bit embarrassed, knew Tyler was unaware of his presence.
He maintained a low-profile, standing up to offer a few words of blessing.
Tyler responded with a cold and aloof âThank youâ.
Deep inside, Tyler cursed Cole.
He had no idea how Cole got an invitation, but he was convinced Cole was intentionally causing trouble.
Lately, Cole seemed to appear everywhere he went, stirring up rumors unexpectedly even after The Sky with Romance finished airing.
It was truly exasperating.
Despite Tylerâs obvious signs of refusal and indifference, fans shipping the two found it even sweeter, adding fuel to the fire.
They relished in the perceived sweetness, intensifying the atmosphere in the venue, leaving Ariana bewildered.
Ariana couldnât believe that Cole had followed them to this place.
Tylerâs reaction showed genuine annoyance, not some sweet gesture.
A premonition washed over Ariana, telling her that this incident would soon cause a stir.
Glancing at her phone, she confirmed her suspicion; the internet was exploding with reactions.
The once deserted fan forum was now flooded with posts from shippers, sharing the picture of Tyler and Cole together at the premiere.

Sighing, Ariana couldnât help but think that Cole was becoming quite clingy towards Tyler.
The commotion in the venue escalated even further, overshadowing the movie premiere itself.
Observing the chaotic atmosphere, Theodore coldly commented, âItâs really noisy.
â
Playfully teasing him, Ariana said, âYou insisted on coming along, so youâll have to bear with the noise.
â
Theodore looked at Ariana, his eyes holding a hint of grievance.
After all, he had come here to be with her.
Unable to resist his pitiful expression, Ariana softly covered his ear with her hand and leaned in to give him a gentle ki*s.
She comforted him in a soothing voice, âItâs okay, weâll leave soon.
Just endure a little longer.
â
Theodore concealed his emotions behind a faint smile as he nodded in agreement.
Soon after, the Q&A session with fans and media commenced.
A daring journalist Lifted his microphone and inquired, âMr.
Spears, this film seems to bear striking resemblances to âDeep Burialâ.
Many scenes, plotlines, and character setups appear quite similar.
Are these resemblances merely coincidental?â
The unexpected question took everyone by surprise, and subtle shifts in their expressions could be seen.
The journalistâs question implied an accusation of plagiarism.

When faced with the accusation, Jayson responded coolly, âItâs clear that âDeep Burialâ is a love story at heart, while âThe Missing Bodyâ hinges on its suspenseful narrative.
Theyâre different at their core.
â
Despite his explanation, the journalist pressed on, âBut the suspense elements in both are strikingly similar.
â
With a tinge of sarcasm, Jayson retorted, âPerhaps thatâs a question better posed to the âDeep Burialâ team.
They may have premiered earlier, but our production kicked off first.
Itâd be interesting to know why their suspenseful story aligns so closely with ours.
â
His response hinted at plagiarism on âDeep Burialâsâ part, but it wasnât convincing enough to change minds, especially considering âThe Missing Bodyâ was released much later.
Emboldened by the initial question, other journalists jumped in, their doubts echoing through the hall.
âThen why did âDeep Burialâ debut first?â
âConsidering the Limited interaction between the two production teams, how did such resemblances occur?â
