Later that evening, Alexa sat at her desk, her laptop open in front of her. She was trying to catch up on work, but her thoughts kept drifting back to Ammielle. She couldn't shake the feeling that something was brewing, and the sense of unease was growing stronger.

A notification pinged on her phone, breaking her concentration. She picked it up and saw a news alert from a popular gossip site. Her heart sank as she read the headline:

"Ammielle Caught Getting Cozy with Co-Star Kath: Trouble in Paradise?"

The article featured a candid photo from the set the day before. In it, Ammielle and Kath were in the middle of an intense scene, but the angle and the timing of the shot made it look like they were sharing a private, intimate moment. The photo showed Kath leaning into Ammielle, her hand resting lightly on Ammielle's arm, their faces close.

Alexa's stomach churned as she read the article.

Could this be a sign of trouble in paradise for the newly engaged couple? Stay tuned as we bring you more updates on this developing story.

Alexa's mind raced as she stared at the screen. The article was designed to provoke and stir up drama, but she couldn't help the pang of jealousy and insecurity that stabbed at her heart. She knew Ammielle was dedicated and professional, but the photo and the article's insinuations were hard to ignore.

"Hello, bitch, long time no talk," Sam greeted in her usual boisterous manner.

Alexa managed a small, tired smile despite the storm raging inside her. "Hey, Sam."

"I saw the news report. Is everything okay?" Sam's voice softened with concern, a stark contrast to her usual cheerfulness.

Alexa hesitated, debating how much to share. The urge to confide in her best friend was strong, but the weight of the revelations felt heavy, a burden not easily shared. "There was a misunderstanding," she said finally, opting for a vague explanation.

"Uh-huh," Sam replied skeptically. She knew Alexa well enough to recognize the tremor in her voice, the forced lightness that didn't quite mask the underlying tension. "So, are you denying or confirming the engagement rumors?" she asked, a hint of amusement creeping back into her voice.

Alexa let out a humorless chuckle. "Denying or confirming what, bitch?" It was a weak attempt at mirroring Nam's usual playful banter, a way to deflect from the seriousness of the situation.

Sam's laugh, though, was a welcome sound. It felt like a lifeline thrown across the chasm of Alexa's turmoil. "You really are something, Lex. Engaged and all. How did that happen?"

Alexa sighed, her voice softening. "It's a long story, and one I don't even fully understand myself. Everything feels so... messy right now. Especially with this news report floating around."

Sam's concern deepened. "Do you like her?" she asked pointedly, referring to Ammielle.

"She's fine to be with even if she's an arse most of the time. There's a part of me that wants to believe everything will be okay"
