DISTURBANCE

For the last few scenes, Ash and the crew decided to shoot in LA as they were the scenes of a beauty pageant competition inside a hall. So they booked a hall nearby and started shooting.

They booked the hall for two days and they arrived to shoot there. the shooting begin but soon the owner of the hall arrived and stopped them from shooting. He began to make a commotion.

"What's the matter?" Ash went near the commotion.

"Director! He says that he is the owner of this place and we can't shoot here." One of the crew members told him.

Ash looked at the hall owner and said, "Sir, May I know what's the problem? Why can't we shoot here? We have paid the rent."

Hall owner looked at Ash, "Who is the director here? I won't talk to a kid."

Hall owner said that rudely so Ash's eyebrow twitched with anger so ash said, "I am the director of this movie. You can talk to me."

"Oh! You must be one of those second-generation rich kids, Ha, The amount you paid me is too less. Pay me more if you want to shoot here."

At that time even Liam arrived there and said, "It was the amount your manager asked for and even you approved it. We paid in full and if you wanted more you should have said that during the negotiations."

"You and that manager cheated me. That manager is already fired so pay me more if want to continue otherwise leave."

"How much do you want?" Ash thought something was weird so he asked.

"You are a rich kid so how about $40,000."

When Ash heard that amount he immediately understood one thing the hall owner was deliberately creating trouble for him. He must be doing this because someone must have told him to do so. Ash's face became red with anger. This amount was astronomical as the rental price for the hall. They booked this hall for $4500. Even someone from the crew exclaimed with anger and said, "That's 10 times the original price. Is he here just to create problems for us?"

The rest of the crew also started to taunt the hall owner but he was just laughing like a fool.

Ash was standing still in his place and looked at the ceiling. He closed his eyes like he was thinking of something. He opened his eyes after a while and then walked to his chair. There he looked for a document.

He came back to the ower and showed him the document and said, "Do you know what this is? This is the rental contract of this place with your signature. It is written here that we have every right to shoot a movie here but now you are halting that process. Now I would suggest you get out of here and expect a lawyer's letter when you reach home." Ash said in a cold tone that Hall owner froze at his spot.

Before the Hall owner could say anything Ash turned around and looked at the security guard and said, "Show him the exit."

Two security guards went toward the hall owner and dragged him out of the hall. He struggled and shouted but everything was futile.

"Let's forget about the earlier fiasco and continue the work," Liam said to the crew.

The shooting continued and they were able to finish on schedule. The hall owner tried to make trouble for them but Ash had already predicted it and hired more security guards. He even told Uncle Sam to sue the hall owner.

After the shooting ended Ash went to his apartment to relax for a bit. He had told Liam to invite the crew and cast for a dinner party in a nearby hotel. He also wanted to invite Serena, Rowen, and Nancy for the dinner but then he released that he forgot his phone in the hall.

He looked at the time and thought that it was still early so he decided to go to the hall to retrieve his phone.

He arrived at the hall and found his phone. But then he heard a faint melody coming from a nearby room. When he focused on the melody he was hit with a wave of nostalgia. He felt that this melody was very similar to a famous song from his previous life.

He went toward the room where the melody was coming from. The door of the room was open and inside the room, a beautiful girl with pink hair was playing some instruments. It looked like she was trying to create this melody.

When Ash took a closure look at her, he found her face a little familiar. Then Ash jiggled OG memories and found out that she was a singer of this world. Even though she wasn't the most famous singer but she was up there and was quite the celebrity.

Her name was Joy Pascal. Ash had heard her songs before and they were quite good but they weren't the best in this realm.

Ash stood there for a while and continued to enjoy his nostalgia but soon she noticed him. She was surprised by seeing him so she asked him, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

"Oh! That was rude of me to stare like this. I just liked this song so much that I couldn't help but listen to it."

"Oh! I was just practicing and I thought no one will be here at this time so..." She laughed awkwardly.

"Ah! Actually, I forgot my phone here earlier so I came to retrieve it, that's when I heard your song. It is a good song I liked it a lot."

"Really, You think it is a good song."

"Yes, it is. When will you release it I will definitely buy it."

When she heard Ash say that she become a little sad and said, "No, I can't release it. I don't even have lyrics for it."

"No lyrics? That's not a problem, I can write them for you."
