17 (Chapter 17) Breaking And Rebuilding Hearts 2
Cerim took a seat, as did Stella while Tang nervously sat down to the godly looking man.
"Okay, let's start with you, Miss Tang. Since you got the endorsement the company is willing to accept the last scandal. However, if this keeps going then we will struggle to hold back anymore rumors." Cerim said in a stern voice.
Tang was known to be with a different boyfriend every new week. However, Cerim was resisting doing much because she was a highly respected actress who has won multiple awards... It's just...
"And you, Zhou... Please don't make the entire building collapse on their knees to marry you." Cerim begged from the bottom of his heart.
Stella leaned in her chair and gave a lazy smile. "This Master will think about it. All those pretty women are working hard every day. Even the men look tired. Gosh, give the men some attention. They need manicures and pedicures to relax a bit." Stella said in a lazy tone.
'Hmm, I can't wait for a scandal to appear and I will need to deal with it... Sob.' Cerim was predicting a sad future for him at the moment.
While Tang's eyes flashed. "Does... Bro Zhou swing?" She said with horror in her tone.
"Haha. Why should this Master care? I'll take both pretty women and handsome guys... Especially little chrysanthemums." Stella said with a gaze at Cerim.
'Fuck! I want to protect my innocence!!! Damn you brother!!!' Cerim cursed Mou to high heaven. He didn't want to deal with him every day...
Tang breathed a sigh of relief. Which her manager definitely spotted.
"Okay, Tang you can leave now. I have something to speak with Master Zhou." Cerim said as he felt his soul leaving his body.
Tang nodded and slightly lowered her head in respect. She noticed that Zhou seemed to be a 'Master' so his identity must be powerful.
"Tang... You heard the Second Master, you can't afford to get any new scandals this time." Her manager tried to say in a tired voice.
"Hmph. What do you know Von? That man is perfect! I'm not a fan of taller guys anyway. So I will be getting him no matter what!" Tang's eyes shone with determination.
Tang was an especially beautiful woman. But she had a slightly tainted reputation. Despite that, she was a great actor and still got roles. Often she would end up dating the male actors in the movies she would be in and then break up with them... But Von was now looking at his artist with such fire in her eyes it was making him terrified.
................
"You know, I feel just tired thinking about what you do." Cerim admitted as he mumbled into the table.
"Haha, don't worry Second Master. I've got some skills in acting and it is part of the plan anyway... Just believe in your brother." Stella said as she closed her eyes.
"You saying not to worry will make it worse. I've assigned a manager to you, they will be here soon. I've told them about your interest in film in the movie bro has just invested in... Just please don't create too many scandals." Cerim mumbled as he began to regret his life.
"No problem Second Master. If my manager is a female I will be protecting her with all my strength." Stella declared her oath and made Cerim want to reconsider his life choices.
'Bro... Do I need to deal with this guy for longer? I feel I'm just meat ready to be slaughtered in his eyes.' Cerim thought sadly as he shuddered at his previous conversation.
The door opened and the woman looked shocked to see the scene of her boss with his head on the table... And her new artist falling asleep...
*Cough* "Sorry I was late." She said with a serious tone.
"No... Just take him away from me, leave me to my humble death." Cerim mumbled as he waved her away.
Stella chuckled. "See you soon Second Master." Cerim felt like he just heard his last words...
...............
The female manager didn't know what to say, the man in front of her was incredibly handsome. And he saw a scene where he made the Second Master trying to get rid of an annoyance... She suddenly felt bad for taking on this man.
Stella sized up the woman in front of her. She seemed to be quite a nice woman, she was dressed professionally and she kept a relative poker face. However, this woman was also noted as Guillard Entertainment's best managers! She could take previous rubbish in acting and turn them into A-listers!
"Hmm, it seems the Second Master doesn't believe I'm good at acting." Stella mumbled as he smiled.
"Well, my name's Tracy Munis. Just call me Tracy, I heard from the Second Master that you want to be appearing in Guzou's new film 'The Golden Sword.' Am I right?" Tracy introduced herself in a professional manner.
"Mmm, are you married Sis Tracy?" Stella asked absent-mindedly.
Tracy showed shock in her eyes. "How did..."
"You have a mark on your finger. It seems your wife treats you well." Stella said with a comforting smile.
Tracy's expressions broke. "H-How?" 'How did you know I had a wife?'
"Easy, you looked at men with disgust, while you have a small tattoo on your arm of your wife. You also have a keyring on your phone with her picture on it. This Master is not blind." Stella said with a calm expression.
"..." Tracy was astonished and scared at the same time! How did he know about her tattoo on her arm? How did he see the picture?
"Don't worry, I'm no homewrecker. Conversely, I am very supportive of same-sex relations. Keep it up!" Stella said as she gave a wide, but not flirtatious smile.
Tracy just was amazed, this man was definitely not a mere newbie actor if he saw the disgust in her eyes while looking at men...
"Okay... So have you got any experience? The document I was given was pretty... Empty, all I know is your first name and have a picture." Tracy said with her eyebrows twitching.
She liked a challenge, and since the order was from the Second Master himself... She couldn't really decline.
"Hmm, I think I should be fine to go audition for the role I want. Just call me Zhou. Just think of it has my first and family name." Stella said without much care.
'Ah, now I know why Second Master wanted the world to end earlier...' Tracy thought as she looked at Stella's uncaring attitude.
