After a tiring photoshoot and filming session, Stephen and the entire crew stayed at an inn on the hillside. The building had three floors, with the ground floor serving as the lobby and restaurant. It was the only inn in the area.In the evening, Stephen, Keyla, and the crew had dinner together at the restaurant below where they were staying, discussing their plans for the photoshoot and filming the next day.As a rookie model, Stephen gladly listened to the directions and feedback from Yusuf and the stylist. Keyla also shared her insightful thoughts, which greatly expanded Stephen's understanding of the modeling world.While standing next to Stephen, the photographer said to Stephen, "As a beginner model, your work today was excellent! I believe your name will soon become well-known!" He smiled meaningfully. "Mr. Lee never makes mistakes when recommending the best models!""Thank you, Mr. Yusuf. I could do this because of the help and guidance from this solid crew!" Stephen replied
The news of Fiona's presence in the Magnificent Emerald hotel building, the same one he occupied, filled Alex with excitement. Moreover, the information about Stephen's absence for several days made him impatient to teach Fiona a lesson for disrespecting him.In his heart, he said, "If Etta Carson fails to ruin their relationship, I will personally go to her!"With careful preparation, Alex took the VIP elevator to the 50th floor, where Fiona was staying. He intentionally arrived early in the morning before Fiona left for campus. After the lift opened, he confidently walked towards the penthouse door.Outside the penthouse, a brunette man with pale skin and black sunglasses, along with a blonde woman, stood guard.Seeing the presence of the blonde man with long hair, Oliver stopped him from approaching the penthouse door, his face looking cold. Alex halted, but his expression remained composed.In Oliver's mind, he wondered, "What does this despicable man want? Hasn't he learned his l
The photo shoot and filming of the King Dragon helicopter advertisement went smoothly. A week later, the thirty-second commercial video featuring Stephen and Keyla Fox became the talk of the country..As Stephen walked in public places, people looked at him with surprise. It was as if their brains recognized the blonde man with a sturdy build from somewhere.The same thing happened when Stephen accompanied Fiona shopping at Ave Mama, a boutique in the largest mall in Rosewind. Fiona sighed softly, "Stephen, everyone is looking at you now." Having a handsome man among the rows of maternity clothes naturally drew attention.With a white t-shirt, Stephen jokingly replied, "Do you mind? They do have eyes, right?" Fiona awkwardly smiled in response to his joke and continued browsing maternity pants.In reality, Fiona was only one month pregnant, so her belly wasn't very big yet. However, being her first pregnancy, she was excited about shopping for her pregnancy needs. Besides, Stephen had
Stephen didn't immediately respond to Manuel's offer. Instead, he observed his friend's expression for a few moments."Why so sudden? You didn't mention anything about buying a car when we spoke on the phone," Stephen inquired.The blond man scrutinized Manuel with an investigative gaze. "You seem restless too!"Manuel sighed and then chuckled. "What are you talking about? I'm perfectly fine!"With a serious look on his face, Stephen said, "I've known you for a long time, Manuel! You're hiding something from me!"Once again, Manuel laughed while looking at his friend. He didn't deny Stephen's accusation, but he also didn't immediately respond because a beautiful maid had just brought the appetizers for them. The man didn't forget to smile at the girl, making her feel embarrassed.Stephen remained silent but awaited an explanation from Manuel about his true purpose.After the food was served in front of them, Manuel took a bite and noticed that Stephen hadn't touched his food at all. "
The woman with black hair smiled faintly, welcoming Manuel's intentions. "Alright then, I hope you won't regret accepting my challenge!"Stephen encouraged Manuel by patting him on the back. "Don't embarrass yourself for the second time!" The brown-haired man in a white jumper nodded confidently.Hayley looked at Stephen and gazed at him for a moment, as if she had seen him before. Then she asked Manuel, "Who is he?" The two women behind Hayley also seemed curious, their eyes fixed on Stephen.Manuel gave a slight smile. "He's my friend."Hayley waved at Stephen without introducing herself. Stephen responded with a friendly smile.There was a unique rule at the Two Fast Stars club. The visitors were not allowed to be too open with each other. They often gathered solely for the purpose of having fun, indulging in car modification and racing without knowing each other's names, family backgrounds, or professions.Even though they were part of an underground racing club, most of the main
The blonde woman in pink pants approached the cigar-smoking man and said, "I'm sorry, Daddy! I didn't mean to upset you!" The man's stern expression softened slightly as the woman came closer, looking pleading.The man referred to as Daddy warned, "Next time, don't let newcomers wander around alone!" The blonde woman nodded happily.With her adorable smile, she said, "Let me introduce my friends. He’s Handsome," she looked at Stephen, then at Kaysen, "And this is Chilli."With this, Stephen had earned his name in the Two Fast Stars club. Although it wasn't of his own choosing, he accepted the name for the sake of the act. After all, the name wasn't bad, and he just laughed to himself.Meanwhile, Kaysen almost couldn't resist protesting why he was given the name 'Chilli.'The grey-haired man's sharp gaze still showed no friendliness towards Stephen, and he said before leaving, "Make sure you tell them the rules of this place!" Following their master, the burly men behind him also depar
Stephen stared at Vega, the blonde-haired woman, who seemed to expect him to accept her challenge. In truth, despite lacking any specific racing experience, Stephen wasn't afraid of racing. After all, he had managed to escape the pursuit of Tristan's men while rescuing Briana Stanton. He had also eluded two crazy cars that attacked him when he first visited the X7 Model Agency's office. Those two incidents were real-life examples of life-threatening chases that Stephen had undertaken, as the pursuers didn't hesitate to open fire on his car. Stephen, who only had standard driving skills, was forced to act bravely and quickly to save his life. Fortunately, he managed to navigate through those situations successfully. The next technical issue to consider was that his car was still in its factory settings. In terms of performance and speed, it wouldn't match up to the racing cars in this club, which had undergone various modifications. Moreover, Vega had more experience in underground r
Manuel had no other choice. He headed towards the third floor, where Daddy was. Hayley had been chasing him since a while ago. "Orion, wait!" The brown-haired man paused, and they exchanged glances. Hayley said, "I'm coming too! I have raced with you. I can't let you face Daddy alone. No matter what!" Her black eyes spoke earnestly, while her hands tightly held Manuel's. Manuel nodded, and they both walked together towards the elevator to the third floor. Upon reaching the third floor, Manuel and Hayley walked towards a room at the end of the hallway. Polite, Manuel knocked on the door. They waited for a moment until the door was opened by a man in a black suit who looked like a bodyguard. They entered a spacious room dominated by white color and futuristic interior design. On some parts of the walls, there were photos of various unique cars framed in silver. The boss of the Two Fast Stars club finally appeared. He walked towards Manuel and Hayley, who stood like statues. After s
