Robert looked out of character, he turned to Alice and asked one more time to be sure that he had heard well. “ What did you say again?”. “ Irene is back to the entertainment industry and even has a shoot going on”. “ She assured me she wasn't going to come to the industry. Do you know the movie she will be starring in?” He asked curiously. “ No I didn't get that details but she seem pretty close to Wren's family from my observation”. She skipped the part where Alex was involved as she wasn't sure about her relationship with him, and Alex was a prominent figure who wouldn't want to daint himself for a mere actress. Irene might as well be his intimate toy but she doubts— he barely converse with ladies. “ And I've been trying to secure a deal with them for a while now. Even if I ask her at the moment she would deny it”. He said as he felt torned inside of him. Something was feeling amiss he just couldn't pinpoint. Then he asked Alice as an idea struck him. “ D
Words failed her as she was so shocked— The movie Irene was starring in was Mystic Falls and she was the female lead at that. Her phone slid down her hands, too many things were happening today that she wasn't aware of. She gritted her teeth in annoyance as she went to the gathering. " Good morning. Today is the first scene, which we'll be starring the female lead and the male lead. This is going to be a great movie and I want everyone to put in their best to make this movie a success. Umm.... let me introduce everyone so we can be conversant with each other". The director said as he walked a bit forward to where all the leads were. " This is Ethan— The male lead for this great piece", he said, pointing to Ethan. Ethan stood up and made a gesture to the house respectfully, he was a very popular actor known for his passionate skills and handsome features. He was among the top three most handsome and skilled actors. The director moved further to introduce Irene.
Just as Irene decided to go and check. Alice barged in almost staggering to the floor. She straightened her composure as she heaved heavily. The agency that Irene was signed as an artist was so strict—Xan's Agency. " What do you want?" Irene said as she folded her arms in disgust clearly not having it this time. “I came to see my best friend who was starring in the same movie as me or do you want people to suspect". Alice scoffed as she felt sour in her belly seeing how far Irene had come. It would have been better if Irene was under the same roof as them, she had frustrated Irene so she could at least be on her knees and begged her for mercy instead she left with pride, not even looking back and seeing her now she doesn't look like someone who would want to come back to the industry”. “ As If, and if people suspect, what does it have to do with me? I don't really care, Alice". “ I bet you do.. Our fans who are rooting for our friendship would be waiting soon
Alice was so surprised. What was he doing here? Did he come to see her?— she thought. Everybody present gave way to it as Robert was seen holding roses in his hands. Robert walked up straight to Alice as he handed her the flowers. There were so many giggles around them. Alice smirked as she looked at the reaction of Irene, but she failed because Irene looked so unbothered about what was going on around her. She had texted Robert in the morning regarding the shoot, but there was no reply, and right now, he really surprised her. “ I didn't know you would be coming. So you did get my message?". she asked cheekily, her once angry state dissipated immediately. “ I should, Your director called me to say that he couldn't give you the female lead role and even reversed the investment when I insisted, so I thought it would be best to support you emotionally”. He stated, his eyes never leaving hers as few people who could hear them became jealous and wished for a man to treat
Robert panicked as the cup of hot tea was spilled on Irene. He subconsciously wanted to clean her lap when Alice winced out in pain. The mug that contained the tea had broken also, he immediately diverted his attention, and alas, Alice's legs were bleeding at the bottom. Ava and her team ran frantically towards Irene as they handed her a towel to clean the hot tea on her lap as they prepared a set of clothes for change. Luckily for Irene, it wasn't that hot to cause damage, but it did wet her clothes. She keeps underestimating Alice and the more she stays around her. The more problems she would accumulate, the more she had to be careful, especially in a scene where there were dangerous parts. " Are you okay? Was there any burn? Ava asked out of concern as she was almost scared to death just now. “ Someone bring the first aid kit” he yelled, panic written all over his face as he rubbed her legs gently. It was a small but deep cut which made him wonder as to how
“ How about I pay you off of your career?". he suggested without a flinch. He didn't come today because he wanted to see Alice but instead he wanted to confirm if what he had heard was true— the fact that Irene was officially back to the industry and is starring in the same movie as Alice. Irene was stupefied, she didn't expect that question from him. He was so bent on ruining her career and now that he thinks he had money it was okay to bargain whatever gibberish that was coming out of his mouth. " What is wrong with you?You want to buy my career totally. That's absurd!" Irene said, her heart heavy— shock was an understatement. She looked at him in annoyance as she spat out and said. “ I'm not interested and I'll love for you to get out of my sight right now!”. her voice stern with warning. “ Who's making you have so much audacity I'd like to know the person. You bedded with a rich man right?" his face flushed deep red, his hands clenched into a fist as he supp
Irene had just finished her role, it was a scene where the male lead brought her to a safe place. she was a great actress and was pretty easy to work with and in no time they wrapped up the movie. it was already pitch black outside at the moment and everybody had started packing up. Irene changed her cloths immediately to a very comfortable one as she waved some crew members leaving—Goodbye. “ Should we drop you off? it's late already”. Ava asked immediately out of concern as they were ready to take off and this was the first time working with Irene so she doesn't understand her schedule yet but she had noticed for this short span of time that Irene loved to drive home herself most times and it's normal as they were just getting to know each other at the moment. “ No I'll leave on my own y'all shouldn't worry” Irene replied with a gentle smile just as Ava had predicted, without wasting much of her time Ava waved her goodbye and left with the rest. It was remaining ju
Alexander leaned close as he raised her skirt up since her focus was there, he was so swift that he didn't even wait for her answer before he opened it. Her skin was red due to its effect. Alex sighed as he could already pinpoint that this was a deliberate act. Someone was plotting against her and she wasn't safe. He needs to do something about it before they take her out of his sight. “ How did it happen?”. he said as he stared at her, his eyes looking beyond her soul, seeing how hesitant she was, he didn't wait for an answer as he told Charles to stop a pharmacy that was close by. Irene was perplexed as she didn't know how he got to notice her discomfort, she made sure she wasn't too loud so she wouldn't drag his attention to hers, she placed her bags directly on the legs with so much force that she couldn't help but wince. He alighted from the car as he went and got her an ointment for the burn and in no time, he came back with some additional drugs in it. He bought some mul
Irene drove to the store to get new clothes as she would be going for more collaborations soon. She walked into the store as the receptionist greeted her with a very warm smile while some still relegated her with their looks as if saying—Old cabbage. Irene ignored the losers and moved forward as she continued looking through the shelves of cloths. She picked one that she liked so much. it was a silver long dress with a knee length slit by the side. She loved this brand for their simplicity yet elegance look, just as she touched it, she heard the screams of the attendants and a familiar voice. " Miss Alice, Welcome....How have you been?". one of the attendants said as she smiled, seems like her ex best friend was a regular here. " I'm doing really great and you" Alice replied as she sat down on the sofa. " What new collection do you have?" she added casually. " Oh yeah there's a new collection, I'm coming I'll go get it for you". the attendant replied as she walked tow
She read all the articles concerning Alexander Blake but couldn't find anything related to women— is he keeping his fiance a secret?. She continued to scroll through and suddenly saw a post that made her burst into laughter— ALEXANDER BLAKE MIGHT BE GAY. The comment section was wild, some said. ' He hasn't really been seen with any woman, maybe he's gay'. one commented. ' His right hand man is charming enough to warm his bed'—another commented referring to Charles. ' He hasn't been seen with any woman. What a waste of handsomeness, nobody to claim that he is hers'. ' Any woman that would successfully tame him should be studied'. another wrote in the comment as many under that comment were like pick me! pick me. ' Such a cutie but a waste even the rich and beautiful daughters of the elite cannot warm his bed'. Irene closed her laptop as she couldn't read the comments anymore. She had laughed so hard that the tears in her eyes had started to drop. She quickly took
He stepped on his accelerator as soon as he got out of the house. He had connected his device to the locator but hadn't activated it on his device. Soon he was able to locate her, he got to her apartment in no time but stayed far from her view. He didn't want to be caught so soon. He knew he was invading in her privacy but he couldn't help but feel sad, he just wanted to see her once again. Ava accompanied her in packing most of her things inside, seems like most of her furniture just came in and it'll be a whole workload for just her to get through with it.Inside Irene's new apartment, it was a spacious place with just two bedroom and a very large sitting room. it was convenient for just a person and besides the building was hers with a little garden at the back of her house. The thing she loved the most was the space inside of it, the well-trimmed flowers, the privacy that comes with each building without invading the others. " I never would have thought that this apartment w
She fainted. Everyone on the set rushed to Alice as they poured water on her face for her to stand up. She had exceeded her energy limit for today and besides she was pregnant which probably the crew members didn't know as she had concealed the information. Director wang hit his head in frustration as he stared at Alice who was partially conscious. —What was really her problem huh? She gets to display certain problems in each set that she's in. if she wasn't feeling okay why didn't she go to the hospital, first it was Ethan and now Alice. he thought. " Oh my Alice". Irene called out as she pretended to care, she raised her up. The water was a quick aid to make her wake up and now the last person Alice ever wanted to see was the first person that she saw when she opened her eyes. She didn't even have the energy in her to get angry as she stared at Irene with hatred. Irene playfully patted her face in care as she smirked in a way that only Alice could see it as if saying. — if you
Irene walked up to her scene as she met a very irritating scene in front of her. There were roses of flowers in Alice's hand and a few more close to her. She was feeling so shy at the moment and happy as she turned to the rest crew members who were giggling with her. Irene guessed that Robert would have brought the flowers for her to spite her the more but he failed as she had gotten over them both forever. " Hey Irene" Alice called out as she rushed towards Irene with a lovely smile on her face. Irene knew that beneath that smile was a devilish plot. By now people would have noticed that they didn't really get along as they used to. "They don't really talk to each other as much as the rumor says but why is Alice having nice to her"— one of the crew member said to another. " Right, I hate the guys of Alice, she would have been the cause of the whole issue, she's quite troublesome". " I don't believe that. Alice is so perfect and doesn't have issues with people no matte
It didn't take long before Irene got to the location for her shoot. Today she was going to act a talking scene where the guy requests for her trust as many didn't confide in him due to the fact that he brought a stranger to their hide out. Ava walked up to Irene in her dressing mirror as she admired her beauty but looked at her in a curious way. " What's with the look now?" Irene asked as she stared at Ava through the mirror. " Nothing I'm just looking at you... You didn't pick my call at a very trivial time and the rumor might have died down but you still need to be careful as you continue, try not to do anything that will agitate the fans and say it's true.... In all stay away from any scandal”. Ava advised as she tapped on Irene's shoulder in the most encouraging way ever. Irene smiled sheepily, she wouldn't lie ever since she had been in the acting career, she had always had the most supporting and encouraging managers. Olivia was a testament of a good manager, Irene
The sun shone bright as it peeked through the window. Irene woke up looking disheveled and unkept, her manager texted her, telling her that she had a shoot this afternoon. She slept so deep that she woke up late. This was past ten and she hadn't gotten dressed. She struggled out of the bed as she went to the bathroom. She had a very long scene today and it was barely talks. she was so excited but lazy at the moment. She yawned severally before getting started about her day. In the dining room, Alex sat down majestically as he held a book in his hands, glancing from each page to the next. He took today off as he felt like a family man, Irene was his responsibility for the moment. The maids set the dining for eating as Alex instructed—she should be awake by now. Just as he had thought Irene came downstairs from her room, she was looking more dashing than ever. Her long hair landing on her waist. She dressed simple today as she wore a short gown with her crocs for comfort. She was look
In the Flynn's houseMr Flynn sat in the living room as he took his time to watch the news today. He had been on a mission and he just came back so he wanted to meet up with what's going on. Right there the screen to the TV showed the latest news about Irene Flynn—his daughter.—IRENE FLYNN IS SAID TO HAVE SLEPT WITH A SECRET CEO TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO BAG A ROLE IN DIRECTOR WANG'S PRODUCTION. This statement from the presenter made him clench his fist into a ball. “ What manner of..... Honey” he yelled as he suppressed his anger, gritting his teeth. “ Yes, I'm coming” Mrs Flynn responded as she walked out of the kitchen. She was an elegant, tall, good looking woman. One glance at her one could notice that Irene took her feature from her. She was one hell of a beauty. “ What's the issue this time?” she asked in an unsatisfied voice. They've clearly had an argument and she wasn't happy with him. “ Regarding your daughter's issue. Look at” he said as he pointed to the
Alex's heart squeezed as he saw her tears, he didn't like how she looked so sad before he could react, Irene hugged him and sobbed quietly. To Irene she was just a girl trying to meet ends meet, trying to leave to her parents that she can successfully be what she wants to be with her profession but instead people keep making it hard for her and it was overwhelming enough not to have a shoulder to cry on. Alex stood still, never letting go as he let her tears stain his suit,he wasn't used to comforting someone so he doesn't know what to say at the moment as he let her cry her heart out. After a while Irene cleaned her tears and stared at Alex as she chuckled and said. “ I'm sorry for staining your dress. I'll clean it for you” she went further to remove his suit as she took out a clean piece of clothing to clean it off. “ You don't need to do that” his deep voice reverberated as he sat carefully on her bed gesturing for her to sit down. Irene sat down cautiously as she stared at
