20 Hi! I'm Nana!

The next morning, Velina hummed as she spread a generous amount of Nutella on her toast. Since this morning, she has been smiling broadly at everyone she met and asked how they were.

All members of Marcello's family who were sitting in the dining room watched her strange behavior while looking at her.

Suddenly, Velina turned to look at her grandfather, "Eyang, I want to be an actress!" She exclaimed, then her smile became wider.

Then, she tapped the table in front of her, tried to get Nadine's attention who was busy watching the stock exchange application on her tablet.

"Hey, Nadine, I will be an actress, you know! Do you want to be an actress too?" She asked.

Nadine just ignored her, rolled her eyes, and took a sip of bitter Toraja coffee from her mug.

"Marino, I ..."

"Yeah, yeah! You want to be an actres, right?" Marino immediately covered his ears with both hands.

"Eh? I just wanted to ride with you to the agency..." Velina continued, pouting her lips.

"You already have a manager and an assistant, so do not bother me! Besides, I never said I would bring you under my management, okay!" Marino teased his sister.

"Eyang! Do you see that? Marino is so mean to me!" Velina pretended being wronged.

"My company is number one in Vanesia! If you join and your acting is bad, it will ruin my image in the eyes of the world!" Marino reasoned.

Velina thought about it for a moment, while resting her index finger on her chin.

"All right! We could just pretending that we do not know each other while we are at the agency! Anyway, you can not tell people that you are my brother, okay? I do not want people to know that my brother is a playboy!"

Marino did not know whether to laugh or cry at Velina's antique. He felt that it would be better for him to suffer long hours of attending meetings with his board of directors than to listen to Velina's nonsenses. Then, he thought about it for a moment.

"Alright! That seems like a good idea! Do not regret it later, being an actress is not just about look!" He replied, chewing his toast.

Velina smiled meaningfully at her brother. She then thought about the next plans she had in her head.

"From this moment on, all of you had to call me Nana if we are outside! Brother, you had to make my profile clean, okay! No background at all, so people will be curious about me!" she said, also chewing her bread.

"After I officially make my debut, I will move from here and live in my apartment. Jena will stay with me there!" She continued, as if all of her plans had already been prepared before.

Jena who was sipping her orange juice turned towards Velina slowly.

"Yea, right, Jena?" Velina smiled widely.

Jena: "....."

Doh! When did I ever say I would! T_T

Nico massaged his temples which were getting dizzy. He began to regret his decision to allow Velina becoming an actres.

Velina glanced at Nico. "Eyang, don't you dare to try, okay! You agreed with me last night!" She pointed at Nico with her bread in her hand.

Nico just smiled helplessly, held up his hands, giving up.

After breakfast, Velina and Jena boarded Marino's car to go to Val Entertainment Building. Along the way, Velina kept chanting. Meanwhile, Marino just shook his head and focused on driving.

Arrived at Val Entertainment, the three of them became the center of attention.

Velina, who was wearing a white converse shirt, dark blue jeans, and white converse shoes, made people glance at her from head to toe.

Usually, debuted talents and artists would prefer to wear mini skirts and high heels. They were curious about Velina.

They ignored their stares and immediately entered the special elevator and Marino asked his assistant to immediately order the HRD team to send the work contract to his office.

Marino's assistant who saw Velina, looked a little surprised but she did not say anything at all. She immediately left to do Marino's request instead.

Moments later, after knocking on Marino's office door, his assistant entered the room and handed him the employment contract document.

"Hi, my name is Nana! Starting today I will officially become an actress here!" She said, even before signing her work contract.

"Anyway, starting today, we are colleagues, okay! You can not tell anyone else that Marino is my brother, and you also can not reveal my background at all!" Velina smiled, menacingly.

"Eh?" When Eva, Marino's assistant heard her words, she was somewhat surprised and a bit loss.

Does the Big Miss just said that she wanted to be an actress? Did I hear correctly? Ouch! This is such a great news!

She thought to herself.

But unfortunately, she was not allowed to spread this news. If not, this news would have shocked the entire Val Entertainment building from the 1st floor to the 7th floor.

Velina used to rarely appears in public, but now, she had decided to appear in front of the media!

After that, Eva was assigned by Marino to show Velina around, and explained the functions of the entire rooms from the 1st floor to the 7th floor of Val Entertainment Building.

People whispered curiously when they saw Eva brought Velina to the 7th floors.

Usually, it was the job of an ordinary staff to show a new talent around, and it would only up to the 3rd floor or maximu, till the 4th floor.

This news immediatelly spreaded around the practice room, which at this time was being used by some models who would attending a fashion show in Milan, Italy.

These models, including Meryl and Mandy, became curious about the identity of Velina, who was personally brought there by Marino.

They then immediately stopped practicing for a moment, and peered outside the room.

How shocked Meryl was to see Velina and Eva, followed by Jena behind them. They were walking towards her direction. Her eyes widened open, unable to believe what she just saw at all.

"That girl...?!!!"
