MHS - Chapter 181

The operation was successful.

After 12 hours of trying to tend to the wounds and save Will, it was finally successful. These 12 hours were very tense for everyone outside the emergency room who were praying in their hearts that Will would be fine.

In the morning, the doctor came out with two notices to announce. One being good and the other was comparatively bad. Although the operation was successfully completed and they were able to save his life, Will had fallen into a coma and they were hoping that he would wake up soon.

It was a huge shock to everyone present in the hospital, especially for Benjamin and June. Even Amanda and Jeffrey were stunned and as the news spread, it became the hottest topic in Hollywood.

Normally, any topic in Hollywood would trend and just die down. But this time, nothing like that happened.

Articles were selling like hotcakes with people wanting to know every detail of what was happening, what happened and what would happen. They simply were curious for everything that could be going around in the name of Will.

Stubbornly, the questions knew no end. A lot of news, tabloids, news reports came to talk about it. Although the media was strictly prohibited inside the hospital due to Benjamin requesting the hospital to block them, the reporters didn't seem to give up.

They made constant articles and updates on Will's situation including who enters and who exits the hospital building. Some of them were even sitting outside the hospital for days to get some news.

Although things like these are normal for the eyes of Hollywood fans, the current situation was not something anyone expected.

The news and the media kept making it popular and trendy with every growing second due to how much people demanded to know more. Some of them even followed June, Amanda and other people who were close to ask them questions at every chance they got.

It was to the point that Dream Vision filed out a lot of lawsuits against media companies. But the barrage of articles about Will never ceased to stop.

The more information the media companies expose, the more people react and drag the situation. In fact, an article was trending on Sparrow.

This particular article has gotten popular not only in America but also in other countries.

It was from Hollywood Weekly, a very famous magazine which would often write great, detailed articles on everything that's going on in Hollywood.

Seeing how much Will was trending, they tried to use his name and wrote an article titled, ' The Day Hollywood Stopped'.

[Will Evans, the young director who shook Hollywood with his masterpieces such as [The Blair Witch Project], [Sherlock Holmes] and [Liberty City] attracted the eyes of so many Hollywood fans. The man himself is no joke as he kept challenging every director and script writers out there with his original yet phenomenal ideas.

Will was caught on camera around two weeks ago in the promotional video of the new sit-com [Friends] which was an original series by Dream Vision and would air on RBO. It was written and directed by Will himself.

Just last week, Will was on the path to attach his name to another successful project but the events that happened after it made people wonder if [Friends] was going to be the last series of a genius.

On Friday, Ashton Banasiewicz who is the current CEO of the Allen Pictures held a party at the Blue Star Palace, where many popular actors, actresses, directors and every other famous person in the industry was invited.

It was the party that he would hold every year and this time, Will Evans name was on the guest list.

During the event, Will Evans was stabbed right below his chest by someone. The 'someone' is named Matthew Collins; the well-known chairman of MCA.

Earlier in the past, there were differences between MCA and Dream Vision and it was reported that Will Evans and Matthew Collins had fallen out with each other with MCA going into a loss a few months after that.

It was also reported that for months now, Matthew has been showing strange behaviour that had scared his family off but no one expected him to do something like this.

The incident took many people by a bad surprise, and according to one of the CEOs present in the party, Matthew was taken down by Will's bodyguards right away.

But it was already too late. Will had already gotten stabbed.

Handing Matthew over to the cops, the police gladly hand-cuffed him for the attempt of murder. In custody, it had been found that he was on some kind of pill. He had confessed further that he was always after Will. The main reason was how he blamed Will for all the losses that his company had to face.

With the reason behind the stab being said, the next focus will move onto how did something like this even happen?

How can such an incident even take place? Why was the security so lax? Why were the bodyguards not alert? The whole incident feels very suspicious and out of ordinary, and one can't help but question, is there something more in this incident then what we already know? Is there another chapter of this story we're not aware of?

Whatever the answer be, the court of public opinion has already made its judgment. Throughout social media people are questioning the ability of the security at such a high profile party? Why was there no background check on the waiter? Mathew is not a no-name person, how can someone famous enter a party without getting recognised?

Although questions are many, only further investigation will reveal the real story. For now, we can only hope the young director wakes up.

Even though the surgery was successful, the director still lies unconscious. He is said to be in a coma and the doctors have admitted they can't judge when he would fully recover.

The worst part of it all is how most of the big projects in Hollywood stopped as Dream Vision was a huge part of it all.

It has also been mentioned how All Big 6 studios head and executives paid visits to check up on his condition. We are sure a lot of it would be to check his condition but a lot of these executives also must have been scared as a lot of them have invested a lot in projects with Dream Vision.

Apart from them, many stars of Hollywood, directors, producers and almost every other important person in and behind the scenes of Hollywood came to check up on him.

The list includes Robert Elord, Leo, Natalie Bergmann, Ethan Silva, Reagan Norris, Ewan Rees and many more celebs who Will had worked together with. They have all been papped entering the hospital.

Although the incident is not a good one, it has surely told us the value that Will Evans has in the industry currently. Maybe, if he didn't wake up soon, most of the biggies in Hollywood might start drinking out of sorrow…]

The article had thoroughly mentioned how Hollywood really can't afford Will to be in this condition currently.

There were a lot of comments in the article. Over 50000 comments and 1.2 million likes.

I am still in shock. How tf this just happen like this? I can't believe this! Even if Matthew loses his mind, I'm pretty sure I won't feel a thing. I truly pray that Will get well soon! Without him Hollywood is boring no caps! And fuck those bodyguards!! How can they be so fucking stupid!

u/lie_is_yours

I can't believe I kept watching movies by Will over and over without knowing who the director was! And now when I got to know who he is… this happened. And this is such a bullshit way of going out!

u/it.is.always.you

What kinda shit going on in Hollywood? Who the fuck would stab another? I honestly call this dumb crap! Hope Will come back from coma! This is like the worst days of Hollywood ever! Can someone suggest a good movie?

u/what_Article

Coma?! It sounds pretty serious! I swear to god if Matthew didn't get something like life imprisonment for it, justice is dead.

As people and media were just talking about him, Will opened his eyes slowly yet steadily and tried to figure out what was happening and what had happened. Although it took seconds for his vision to become a bit clearer, when he opened his eyes, he was able to see where he was.

It was plain white all around him. The floor to the walls, everything was white. His mind went completely speechless for the sight that was around him. It was almost as if he was pushed inside a huge white box where one could hear nothing but their own voice. It felt empty, yet full.

Will questioned himself what was happening and why he was here. Although he was able to hear nothing and see nothing but white background, he felt as if this was a dream.

Suddenly, his head started hurting, like someone was hitting it with a hammer and he wasn't able to stop himself from shouting.

As it slowly subsided, a reel of pictures appeared in front of him. In fact it was closer to calling them videos.

It all started from where he started. From how he was in his world with nothing but a system. A system of movies, and many other skills. And then with time, how he met different people. People like Benjamin and then there was June.

The time passed pretty quickly although the entire thing was happening just in front of him. It all kept continuing from where a big filmmaker company was built around his name, and how he was the one who owned it.

With that, everything else including what he was doing, how he was doing them, Amanda to Jeffrey and Alexia, it kept playing the important parts of his life. And the little movie ended with how he got stabbed.

Thinking about it, he felt his reaction was so laughable and… dumb.

'I could have done so much to avoid it.'

He blankly stared at the screen.

'If I stopped Uncle Ben from going to the party, would this have happened?'

'What if I had tipped the police about it?'

'What if I gave a protective vest to Uncle Ben?'

'There was so much I could have done!!'

Will regretted how he couldn't control himself and think straight because of the panic and fear.

The screen infront of him repeated the stab once again.

He saw himself running forward.

'Wait…'

Just then he found something strange.

'Why is that guy not moving?'

He noticed that the bodyguard, who was closest to Uncle Ben and had clearly seen the incoming attack, hadn't moved from his spot!

'Why…'

A frown appeared on Will's face as the video came to an end. Letting out a sigh, he couldn't help but think to himself.

'Does it even matter now?'

He looked around.

'Is this hell? Did I really die?'

The questions popped up in his head.

It was then the video disappeared and someone who looked exactly like him appeared in front of him. Same hair, same face, and everything, including the same attire was there like a mirror. It looked like a reflection of his own self.

As questions rang in Will's head, his reflection opened his mouth.

"You achieved a lot with my body but now is not the time to die. Go back!"

"What do you—"

"Not the right time. So much awaits, and so much to strive for, beyond Hollywood, beyond what you could ever imagine."

His reflection interrupted him and put his hand on his head and as the last words rang in his head, Will's vision went blank, once again.
