"You!" Sammy glared at him. She has a lot of curses to rain on him, but the dude is her only ticket to seeing Brian and she doesn't want to offend him much. Even though he's rude when it comes to Brian's order, he treated her with respect in other aspects.
Brian was like his road to the crazy dimension.
"Please leave." He insisted.
There's no way that she's going to let Emma get the chance she had to really be intimate with Brian, never!
Knowing what she needed to do, Sammy walked out of the room, while bringing out her phone from her purse to contact her manager and make findings about the peanut actress that came to sleep with Brian.
Michael sighed after closing the door, before he started making calls to the directors and other important individuals that will be attending the meeting.
He asked to only get the girls ready, that Brian has chosen who he wanted. The director smiled and said he knew that already, but froze when Michael claimed that it wasn't Sammy that he chose.
"Is this some kind of a joke?" He asked in disbelieving.
Not bothering to argue with him, Michael said all he needed to say and call the others. No matter their grumbles, they couldn't go against Brian's decision, scared that he might ditch them and refuse the movie later.
He has done that once. Instead of fans blaming him, since they've seen the thrillers and were glad that it was his movie, before Brian got annoyed over something and refused to proceed with it, they blamed his agency and every related people.
They even sent letters to him, claiming he got bullied and told him not to think too much.
The situation was awkward, because none of the people from the agency tried to clarify things. They didn't want to get into Brian's bad side, because they made him mad in the first place and he was also one of the shareholders of the company.
They planned an intimate scene and didn't include it in the script, trying to trick him into it, thinking he wouldn't have a choice, but they underestimated how much he disliked Sammy, who was the female leading then.
Not only was he a movie star, he was also a songwriter and he sang when he felt like it. He's not really interested in singing and gave out his lyrics, and only recorded the ones that he felt connected with.
Within a few minutes, Michael was done with his calls and walked closer to Brian's room, "can I come in?" He asked, but instead of growling at him to leave, "please don't." Brian replied.
"Don't be hard on yourself okay? the fact that the activity happened in your room alone didn't make it a rape. She came on her own because she wanted to and you're human too….. " After speaking on and on Michael turned to leave and heard Brian's voice, "thanks Michael."
Michael smiled, because he knew how fragile Brian's heart was, despite his temper and coldness.
....
Meanwhile.
Getting inside her room, Emma panted heavily and quickly closed the door, before crashing onto the floor and began crying her heart out.
"That was fast," she heard her manager's voice from behind, but kept on crying.
Getting in front of her and seeing the hickeys on her, Charlotte rejoiced inwardly before faking a pitiful face and pulled her into her embrace, "calm down Emma, I'm sure that it will be worth it." She said, patting her back.
Emma shook her head, "he… he… sent me away after sleeping with me. He won't give me the role. It was all for nothing." She said in between tears.
"He will." Charlotte said as a matter of fact. Because sleeping with him alone guaranteed that. The fact that he laid his hand on her and didn't find her unworthy of his body meant that she was someone that he could act the movie with, without restraining from intimacy.
Emma didn't say anything, assuming that Charlotte knew what to do and all that she needed to do was having the sex, which she had done.
"Go clean up and get ready for the meeting." Charlotte said after helping her to her feet.
Seeing her walking to the bathroom, Charlotte smiled to herself. She knew Emma is weak and strong. Both sides had triggers, which is her family.
She could become a dummy for them and could become a monster for them. This weakness that she managed to know about, was the master key to controlling her.
...
Sitting around a large conference table, were beautiful ladies that can make eunuch grow back his dick. A monk would lose all his knowledge, if he entered this room.
The beauties that were being worshipped on screen. Even Emma, who wasn't inferior to them, felt overwhelmed, because if not for her exceptional beauty and the two movies she was a casted in, she wouldn't be able to get this close to them.
Even though her role wasn't expected to get her attention, she managed to stand out. Which was why she got this chance.
If such a mini role could bring about such an effect, they wondered what would happen if she got a valuable one.
All the actresses that were around the table weren't freaked over the meeting, because they knew that they wouldn't be chosen, even though it was their heart's desire.
Emma nearly peed her pants, as she heard silent whispers of the two actresses sitting beside her. They were cursing Sammy for always getting everything, which made her wonder what they would do, if she really got chosen.
For a while there, she really wished that she wouldn't get it. Maybe Brian should just pick someone else. She didn't want to become their enemy.
If someone told her that she would be opportuned to sit beside these ladies in her dream, she would call the person a joker, but here she was, in their midst.
She had acted with two of them, so they've even made body contact. Fear consumed her heart as the door opened and Michael came inside.
He had a stoic expression on his face, which made those that wanted to get closer to him and made him link them with Brian think twice. He didn't get seduced with money and didn't get freaked over beauties.
Emma's body froze as she recognized Michael. Actually, their eyes met as he's sitting at the edge of the table which gave him a vivid view of every one of them.
Emma looked down on her thigh, while Michael didn't miss the embarrassed and scared expression she had on. He usually didn't give a damn, but he felt that something wasn't right with the girl.
He hadn't seen her before either. 'Who was managing her?' He questioned in his head
If she really wanted the role so much and slept with Brian for it, why wasn't she proud of it, like most actresses would.
If stares could kill, Emma would be six feet under the ground right now.
Michael didn't beat around the bush and pointed at her, since he didn't know her name. All eyes followed the direction of his finger.
Emma was shaking inside already. She couldn't even raise her head.
"Wait! Is this some kind of a joke?" It was one the actresses, who spoke up.
It was understandable that Sammy was chosen, but who was this girl?
It was like, they were just noticing her existence among them.
Emma bit down on her lower lips, as the rest of them started raising their discomfort with the choice.
"I will leave the rest to you, director." Michael said and left, ignoring the girls.
The director knew there was nothing that would change the choice and looking at Emma, he couldn't see any of these beautiful girls that look as attractive as she does.
She also possessed an innocent face, that will make you feel attracted to her. He smiled softly, because these types of girls would look nice beneath him.
He will surely have a taste.
With those lustful thoughts in mind, he also rounded up the meeting and even asked Emma to follow him, so that she wouldn't get snapped into two by those furious ladies.
The manager was a man in his early forties. He had low cut black hair and an average height. He wasn't bad looking for his age and really enjoyed bedding beauties.
…...
That night, Emma got home and told the good news to her mother and siblings, but cried and rented to her cat.
Nemo was her comfort. The only family she showed her weakness to. Just rubbing his black fur and staring into his cute eyes, would break her.
She would find herself hugging him and telling him everything that happened. Even though the cat wasn't human, he would look at her, as if he understood everything and let her cuddle him till she fell asleep.
....
A week after the incident, Emma was seen in one of the studios in the agency.
She was in the dressing room, same as Sammy. Sammy weirdly accepted to become the second female lead.
Emma was feeling uncomfortable right then, because a young girl in her nineteen or twenty, was tending to her.
She was one of Sammy's assistants. Sammy made the offer and Emma said that she could take care of herself, but Sammy asked if she had grown wings because of her role.
Emma apologized and agreed immediately. When Charlotte entered the room, she didn't think much of it, and also thanked Sammy, but never got a reply.
Emma was dressed in a pink tank top, with a spongebob squarepant animated in front of it. She put on a black knee length casual trouser and had her hair styled in a twin pony.
The theme was to make her look like a normal girl, while Sammy and one other actress will dress gorgeously, but Brian will only have his eyes on Emma, while the two girls will be giving them jealous stares.
Sammy stared at Emma at the corner of her eyes and gritted her teeth. She found Emma to be really beautiful.
'How dare that slut able to stay in the same room with her!' Sammy was furious, but she was the one who chose to share, because of her plan.
Emma stared at the bottle water given to her, by the assistant. She had taken the water before her nude lipstick was applied, to make her look natural.
She felt a bit weird, but shook her mind off it.
.....
Brian was dressed up in a blue jean trouser and a black shirt. His silver hair disheveled and makeup lightly done. He looked breathtaking and cute, as he smiled and winked in front of the camera.
Emma was feeling nervous to meet him, but he didn't even make it seem like they've met each other before.
He was just being himself, making Emma calm her nerves. She watched him leaving the and returning, with changed outfits.
It wasn't necessary to do everything at once, but he seems to want the pictures from his part to be done in a day.
After the solo shoot, Emma joined him and somehow felt her vision go blurry after the first camera flash.
She clutched onto Brian tightly, making him frown. He thought she was trying to cling onto him.
Perhaps she was pretending all along.
Emma was asked to lightly hug his waistline and rested her head to his arm, but she was now holding onto his waist tightly, with beads of perspiration surfacing on her forehead.
Ironically, Charlotte was not there with them.
Everyone was looking at them. Emma couldn't raise her head and was using her last strength to hold onto Brian, but he thought she was doing it on purpose.
"Miss Emma, you don't have to hold him too tight." The cameraman said, but Brian had reached his limit.
He forcefully pulled her arms from him and was about to walk away when he heard a loud thud.
Emma's body laid motionless on the floor, making everyone's eyes widened in shock, except Sammy and her crew.
Sammy smirked and kept typing on her phone, while crossing her legs. The poison wouldn't be detected and she would die immediately.
"Hey! You okay?" Brian asked, looking down at Emma, that had stopped moving.
Not getting a response, he went down on his knee, while everyone were still shocked and wondering what exactly was happening.
"Hey!" Brian exclaimed, as he saw her lips looking pale and her entire face flushed red.
The cameraman also stepped forward, after seeing how Brian looked so serious.
Brian pressed his ear to her heart.
"Is she okay?" The cameraman asked.
"She's dead. Damn it!" Brian screamed, as Emma wasn't breathing, but still didn't give up and picked her up in the princess style, before running out of the studio.
