Chandler stared at the screen, and for a moment he could not move. It was as if time had stopped for him.“Hey, did you see that proposal that was happening in the amusement park? I want to marry a guy as handsome and rich as that guy. It was too bad I had a curfew. I really wanted to stay longer.”Chandler flinched when he heard the mention of the proposal by the people that were giggling from outside of his amusement park.He didn't even think and ran towards the source of the voices.There, he saw a group of high school students chatting and giggling while holding food and merchandise that they got from where they were just from.“Oh my gosh! What was that?”The students flinched and exchanged bewildered glances when Chandler abruptly approached them."Hey, mister, what's your problem?" one of the students asked nervously.However, anger has taken control of Chandler's body. He suddenly grabbed the arms of a
Eliza's eyes widened. "F-Fired? B-But, Melinda, this is my father's —""Shut up! This is mine now! You can't even afford to manage the store. What do you mean this is your father's, huh? You are practically indebted to me, you bitch! So shut your mouth and go where you belong!""B-But I—""You're so hard headed now huh?" Melinda glared with a grin at Eliza and raised her hand to slap Eliza.She has always hated this beautiful face and slapping her brings her relief.But before Melinda's hand could land on Eliza's face, a strong grip restrained her. The sudden intervention caught Melinda off guard, freezing her in place.Eliza was also taken aback by Marcus' action. As he grips Melinda in front of her, she can't help but look at the biceps on Marcus' arm and blush.She had only seen this scene from romantic movies where the male lead was protecting her woman. Melinda, on the other hand, struggled in Marcus's grip, as she glared at Marcus."You! Ugh—"Unable to speak, Marcus tightened
THE director's confusion deepened, and he leaned back in his chair. "Eric, this is highly irregular. Marcus went through the audition process just like everyone else, and he earned the role fairly. What you're suggesting is unethical and could ruin the entire project. Why do you want him removed?" the director asked.He could not understand why Eric was suggesting his cousin be removed. He thought that they were a happy family, but seeing how determined Eric was, it seemed that he was wrong.He was ready to hear out Eric nevertheless. He was also his treasured actor, but he won't change his mind on Marcus.After seeing Marcus' performance today, it was already impossible for him to remove him from the cast; doing so would only diminish the quality of the project.Eric leaned in, a sinister glint in his eyes. "Director, I heard about your financial situation and your illegal dealing from a friend. Honestly, I was very shocked, and I almost punched the guy for saying the wrong things
Marcus was sitting quietly, avoiding the woman’s eyes by looking around the room.The walls were adorned with artwork that matched the aesthetic of the house, and it was obvious that they were all very expensive.His gaze fell upon a series of framed pictures arranged on a side table.Among them were photos of Christina through the years. Marcus could easily identify her because Christina started her acting career very young and acted in big films that made her win big awards.Suddenly, the door opened, and presumably, the master of the house, a man in his 50s with a commanding presence, entered the room, his eyes narrowing as he examined Marcus."You are Marcus Thornwood?" the man questioned, his voice stern and demanding."Yes, sir. I'm Marcus Thornwood," Marcus replied respectfully.The man nodded as he sat in front of Marcus, and the woman walked to sit beside his husband."Janet, get us something
'What is he doing?' Julia didn't know what to do. 'Shit, I'm gonna be cut from the scene again! Is he retrying the scene where I said, 'What do you mean, Colonel?' Or the scene where I point a gun at him? Shit! Which scene is he trying to do?!'"I killed enemies. Who I killed are the enemies of my country! Murphy, Finley, Koa—I killed them. With this rifle," Marcus muttered, his voice trembling.His eyes held an empty, distant gaze, as if he had become lost in a web of deception, unable to distinguish between his true identity and the illusion he had woven for so long.Julia sighed in relief hearing Marcus. 'Thank God, he didn't change the dialogue,' she thought back in her mind.Julia acted shocked, and Eric's eyes widened in disbelief. "W-What do you mean, Colonel? What do you fucking mean?" Megan yelled.Eric, as if realizing something, his eyes widened. "Y-You killed William?!" William was Alexie's friend.But Victor just raised an eyebrow and then massaged his head. "W-Willia
"I'm Julia Veret, one of the top creators on ClickFlow! How can they overshadow me like this?" she muttered, pacing around her room.She hastily picked up the scattered parts of her phone, trying to piece it back together, but her mind was consumed by the unexpected turn of events. The silence surrounding her online presence gnawed at her pride."I won't be ignored. I need to do something big, something that will make them regret underestimating me," Julia thought, a determined glint in her eyes.With renewed energy, she grabbed her laptop, ready to concoct a plan that would not only reclaim her spotlight but also outshine the collaboration between Amelia and the newbie EchoPhantom. ****Tomorrow came, and it's already the day of their collaboration. Last night, they had a meeting on what to sing and practiced, which went well.Marcus was free throughout the day since he didn't have a scene to shoot, so he chose to click the app ClickFlow. As soon as he went to check for his follo
Marcus' breathing intensified as he looked down at the knife that still had his blood on it. It had been two minutes and Marcus' stamina had run out. He was in a dangerous predicament, and he needed to act quickly."I don't know where you got that move but it's over now, punk," the taller gangster taunted. "You are gonna pay for what you have done to my brother."Marcus felt helpless but then he remembered another move he had seen in one of the flashes of Victor Petrov's combat skills. It was risky with a knife pointing not far from his neck, but he had no other choice.Using every bit of his energy, Marcus stomped on the taller gangster's foot, causing the man to yelp and momentarily loosen his grip. Marcus used this split-second opportunity to twist out of the gangster's hold.In a swift and determined move, Marcus delivered a punishing elbow strike to the gangster's face, breaking his nose. Blood spurted from the gangster's injured face as he stumbled backwards, dazed and in pai
