Brewster remained quiet all through the car ride. His mood had been ruined by Ace's sudden change in mood, and he no longer had the intention to say anything to the man. Ace was also indifferent. His attention was fixed on the phone before him, and he was typing away. It was clear that he was a workaholic. A message popped up on Ace's phone, realizing it was from his assistant, he opened it, and his eyes widened slightly. "So, the little star is the son of a criminal?" He mumbled to himself, and his eyes turned cold. He glanced at the little star beside him. The innocent face seemed suspicious to him at the moment, and he clenched his fist in annoyance. Was the little star truly innocent, or was he too good at deceiving people? Ace prided himself on being able to read people the most. Considering his line of work and his status, it was only right for him to be able to read everyone that came his way, only this way would he continue ruling peacefully, but the little star really gav

DING!An alert popped up on Ace's phone, and he squinted his eyes lazily. He pushed back the document before him and raised a brow at his assistant, who was busy typing away on a laptop. "I'm done with this. Make sure it's submitted to them tomorrow." He ordered and checked his time, realizing it was past midnight already. He yawned and picked up his phone to check what the alert was all about, but his brows furrowed slightly when he saw the amount withdrawn from his account. It wasn't the amount that surprised him. With his wealth, he could afford to spend a thousand times more daily, but what surprised him was the person who used the money. The little star. Thinking about the naivety of the little star, Ace couldn't help but wonder what he could have used so much money for. Could it be that the little star was indeed deceiving him?Ace's eyes narrowed as the little star's face flashed before his eyes. "Mr Ace, should I investigate how he spent the money?" Ryan, Ace's assistant,

Brewster stepped out of the office still in a daze. He walked forward with a silly expression on his face, but his nails wouldn't stop piercing his palm. "Live in his home." He mumbled. His lips slowly curled up, and his ears turned beet red. He hastened his steps and clutched his chest to steady his rapidly beating heart. His head tilted, and his expression turned a little serious. "I might have to see a doctor soon. My heart is beating too fast these days." He complained. He rummaged in his pocket and brought out his phone. "Brother Jimmy..." He called softly as he dialed the line on his screen. The phone rang for a while and ended unanswered. Brewster frowned and called again, but the result was the same. "What's going on?" He mumbled worriedly. Jimmy was always with his phone. There was no way the man would ignore Brewster's call, especially after he dropped him at the hotel before he left. Brewster knew Jim would have been deadly worried and would have stayed alert with h

Brewster wiped his mouth and patted his belly lazily. "Thanks, bro Jimmy." He appreciated. Jim laughed awkwardly and waved his hand. "I've promised you that I'd cover your meals whenever I can. You call me brother, so give me the chance to act like one." Brewster flashed an innocent smile and blinked. "Yes. Brother Jimmy is the best." He stood up and walked toward the bed. "Today is the first day of acting, right?" He asked. Jim nodded. "Director William called earlier. You don't have a scene throughout this week. You can rest at home and go over next week." He explained. Brewster raised a brow, and his heart slightly flushed. "Then, I can pack today." He initially thought he would have to wait until the drama production was over before he could pack his things to Ace's house, but listening to Jim's explanation, he felt relieved in his heart. "Um." Jim nodded, then his eyes widened. "Pack? Pack to where?" He sounded confused. Brewster pursed his lips, and embarrassment flashed

The car stopped in front of Ace's mansion, and several men surrounded Jim's car. Both Jim and Brewster were taken aback. Brewster's face even turned pale from fright as he watched the bulky men standing frigidly around their car. Jim formed a fist and cursed lowly. "Is Ace playing with us? What the hell is he doing?!" He felt like he was about to lose his mind. Brewster shook his head. "Ace doesn't know about this." He mumbled. There was no way Ace would make things difficult for him after telling him to come over. He had even sent a message to Ace before they got there!Jim glanced at Brewster through the corner of his eyes and sighed deeply. His heart ached. He couldn't help but wonder how Brewster would live with a dangerous snake like Ace. Would the young man survive?Jim felt lost. However, Brewster couldn't stop the trembling of his lips, but he firmly believed Ace wouldn't hurt him. So, his sweaty fingers reached the door, and he opened it without a word. Jim's eyes wide
