The paparazzi, sprinting in the direction Matt indicated, caught a glimpse of three figures darting away. Instantly, they recognized the man with blonde hair accompanied by two young women as Lucas.

Kyle dashed with impressive speed, oblivious to the curious glances of passersby in Central Park as he yelled, "There's Lucas—hurry up, let's go!"

They pursued the trio, but their efforts were in vain; the three had already hailed a taxi and disappeared into the traffic. Despite their attempts to follow, the taxi quickly outpaced them, leaving them far behind.

Being left behind filled Kyle and the rest with profound disappointment.

As Matt approached, he asked, "You couldn't stop them?"

Kyle, turning to Matt, retorted, "You could've at least tried to prevent them from running off."

"What? It's just me against three of them. Even if I tried, they could've easily slipped away..." Matt explained, trying to justify his inaction.

Kyle sighed, "Such a missed chance. I was so eager to ask them if working on that project together sparked any feelings among them."

This comment made Matt and the others recall that Lucas, Jennifer, and Felicity indeed collaborated on a project that seemed to have romantic undertones, fueled by various photos circulating of Lucas kissing either Jennifer or Felicity.

"Damn, I forgot to ask them about the movie they're in!" Matt suddenly realized, his voice laced with regret.

"Really? You had Lucas and his co-stars right there, and you forgot to ask about the movie they're all in?" Kyle couldn't help but be somewhat astonished.

"Well, I did ask them a few questions about their personal lives, but then my entire focus shifted to Lucas. After all, he's an actor whose fame has skyrocketed in just a year or two..." Matt admitted, sounding a bit rueful.

The other paparazzi just gave Matt a look, clearly thinking that had they been the first to encounter Lucas with the actresses, they wouldn't have missed the chance to inquire about the movie project. After all, it was still a hot topic of controversy, especially with those photos of Lucas kissing his co-stars floating around. Even though it's been half a year since those images surfaced, social media was still abuzz with speculation. Were those kisses just part of a movie project, or was there something more to Lucas's relationships with these young and beautiful actresses?

Meanwhile, Lucas, Jennifer, and Felicity had successfully evaded the prying eyes of the paparazzi.

As they caught a taxi to escape, Jennifer and Felicity noticed the silhouette of a few men with cameras slung around their necks running in their direction, just moments before they made their getaway.

Their hearts pounded from the adrenaline rush of running, fleeing from the intrusive paparazzi. At the same time, they were relieved and grateful that Lucas had quickly spotted the paparazzi before they could get any closer.

"Hah, ha, that was actually kind of thrilling," Felicity managed to say, a bit out of breath from their escape.

"Ha, it definitely had its moments of fun, but if they had caught up to us, I bet they would've gone to extremes to stop us, maybe even daring to block a taxi just to get us to stay—they're nuts," Jennifer said, unable to hide her astonishment at the lengths the paparazzi might go.

Lucas and Felicity shared a quiet chuckle. They hadn't yet felt the full force of paparazzi attention since they weren't widely recognized, but they were well aware of the paparazzi's notorious persistence to unearth any snippet of an actor's life.

Thankfully, they managed to evade any complications this time, with Lucas ensuring both women were safely returned to their hotel before he headed back to his own apartment.
