The moment the director yelled "Cut!", Samuel Hughes immediately pushed the woman out of his arms and stood up, as if Riley Perry were some kind of plague he didn't want to touch in the slightest.
The crew was already used to it. Top Actor Hughes acted the same way even with Best Actress Sherman. His supposed misogyny was a well-known secret.
However, only the people involved knew what was really going on.
In the entire series of *Immortal Demon Tribulation*, the only scene where Immortal Lord Caelus had physical contact with the second female lead was when Jonah Ingram, under the alias Jade Sullivan, died taking a sword for him. It was because she died in Immortal Lord Caelus's arms that Jonah Ingram delivered her final line: "I... have no regrets."
To love someone so deeply that your only wish is to die for them, and in their arms... the Princess of the Demon Realm was just a woman hopelessly in love.
