PARTNER IN CRIME: PART I
It was already late that evening when Jacob arrived at Leslie's home. As he knocked on the door, Leslie right away opened the door as she was already expecting him. "What happened, why are you so late?" Leslie inquired as she though the man would come to her home right away as soon as she left the Blake. Yet, the man did not show up at all and did not contact her as well. "I had to handle some business first. As you know, I've just gotten divorce and need to find a lawyer to help me make sure things won't be troublesome for now on." Jacob explained without telling the woman that he was kidnapped by his family. "Oh, thank goodness nothing happened. I was so worried and was almost about to head to the police station to file for a report. I thought maybe the Blake." Jacob smiled, seeing how concerned the woman was for him. He patted her on the head to ease her down. "Don't worry, I'm fine." Both of them headed inside the house, as soon as they sat down. The atmosphere between them be

PARTNER IN CRIME: PART II
Whilst the girl continued to explain, Jacob was not interested at all. The fact that he was the one who found those mega stars and had the man take care of him. As he was always traveling, he meets loads of people who he though would become some great. Those people who have reached the star, knew that it was Jacob who helped them find their way and have kept it a secret, but have always been grateful. He only messaged the guy last night telling him that he had found another star for him. But he didn't expect the guy would sit during the audition. "Congratulation, it seems not only were you hired, you also meet your dream guy." Jacob replied. "Ha-ha, what dream guy. I just feel like that I could meet him, I mean, like I said, he is every girl's dream guy." She shyly said as he felt embraced and curious as to whether the guy was jealous or not. "Anyways, you better work hard. If possible, once you get a manager, try get the role for Endless. Jessica plans to audition for it, I'm sure

PARTNER IN CRIME: PART III
Jacob returned home with the two boxes with him. He didn't need to open them to know what was inside. He only sighs in regret that he had to get his brother involved. As he went to the kitchen to prepare himself some refreshment, he received another bothersome call. "What do you want?" "Hey, you b*stard, aren't you being to mean lately. I've called you to explain that you future wife contract with the Blake has been handled smoothly." "Anything else?" "Anything else, are you some damn *ss. Why the heck did you even bother calling Lawyer Jack to handle something so simple? I mean, she only needed to pay the termination fee and they didn't even bother saying a thing. What's the point of having the man there as well?""Some b ack up." He replied. Before he had his divorce with Jessica, he had already made sure he'd be a few step ahead of everyone. He even contacted an old friend of his to make sure that the divorce between him and Jessica would be smooth. What the Blake didn't know,

AUDITION: PART I
Jacob and Leslie were on their way home. Both of them waited for a taxi outside the hotel. Coincidentally, Joe Black and Jessica's family were coming out as well. "Oh, Mr. Wayne, should we give you a lift home?" Joe Black said as he saw the man standing outside, whilst they waited for a ride. "No need." Jacob replied as a taxi stopped at that same moment right in front of them. Leslie hesitated to look back and greet them as she didn't want to look at the ugly face of Jessica all glaring at her. What's more, her family was with her and she didn't want more eyes on her as she felt suffocated already earlier. Both of them got inside the taxi as they left without any word. Leaving the Blake couple to have a few words to say about what happened. "That b*stard, doesn't he know how to greet his elder at else." Chairman Blake exploded in anger, seeing how arrogant the boy had been after he left their family. He had lost so much today as he didn’t get any good words out at all. He wanted

AUDITION: PART II
10 AM A lot of ladies were out in the hallway waiting for their turn. As a man walked out of the door and made the announcement that the audition would soon start. A few ladies were all pale, worried for what was to come. "Leslie, are you alright?" Manager Jean asked, noticing the girl's soul seemed to have left her body. Seeing how the girl looked, she looked even more worried. The more she worried, the more she cursed the man who put them in such a situation. "I'm fine." She replied nothing more to say as she was too nervous at that moment. Manager Jean sighs, giving up all hope. It was far too impossible for the girl to get the role the President asked of them. She had been stressing these past few days and had been barging in the president's office, asking the man of what he was thinking. Yet, the man would only reply to her: The higher up request of it. So, what can she do but obediently agree as she was an employee and is in need of work. As the girls were all anxiously wa

AUDITION: PART III
Producer Copper opened the bag and was shocked to see the money; he right away questioned the man but was interrupted. "Did President Gordon come and see you too?" He asked of him before the man could even ask him. "What, President Gordon?" Producer Copper was confused. He then somehow understood where the money came from seeing the man asked of him if the man went to see him as well. "No, he didn't. So, this money, it came from him." "Yes." He shortly answered as he grabbed a bottle of whiskey for him and the man. He poured a small glass out and drank it right away; afterwards, instead of giving the man next to him a drink, he drank the second one right away as he had been stressed all day. "He didn't ask much. Just that, I should know what to do." "Then, what should you do?" He asked as he then took a drink and drank it in one go. Despite he doesn’t particularly like whiskey, since they were so rich at this moment. He could just go to the hospital to care of his health anytime so

Both of them have dark cloud over them as they already expected the worst. “Leslie, don’t worry. I’m sure you’ll be able to get another role.” Manager Jean tried to cheer the girl up. In the first place, it wasn’t the girl’s fault that she couldn’t get the role. At least, they tried there best. During the time they practice together she saw how much talent the girl has. But, what can they do when the role they wanted to take was already pre-decided for. “Manager Jean, like I said, I know my limit. We already knew from the start that I can never get the role. Plus, the role was already decided to be Jessica. Frankly, I don’t know what the higher ups are thinking. But at least we can show them that we tried our best.” Leslie said optimistically and with a bright smile. Manager Jean no longer worried. The girl was as bright and cheerful like she normally was.
