Alice felt disgusted just watching her try so hard to get into Mikael's good graces. She looked at the little coffee left in her cup and smirked.
Alice stretched forth her hand and carefully pushed the cup from the table and it dropped on Mimi, spilling on her.
''Alice, what the hell is that?'' Mimi screamed and stepped back.
Alice's lips parted and closed again. Acting scared as she stood up, she bowed before Mimi. ''I'm sorry Mimi, please forgive me!'' Alice shed a pitiful tear as she spoke.
The production crew and other actors and actresses all turned towards them. They started murmuring amongst themselves as they watched the two lead actresses. No one dared to go to them.
One of Mimi's assistants whispered something into her ears and Mimi turned, noticing the people around them. She glared at Alice with a hateful glare.
Even though she knew Alice was acting, she couldn't deal with her in the presence of everyone.
Mimi smiled gracefully and said to Alice, ''It's alright, Alice. Accidents happen all the time.''
Alice bowed again and said softly to Mimi as she lifted up her head. ''Since the accident, my hands don't listen to me anymore. Is almost like they have a mind of their own.''
''You did that on purpose!'' Mimi gritted her teeth as she looked at Alice.
''Niania…'' Alice turned and held her assistant's hands saying. ''You explain it to Mimi. I really didn't mean to ruin her dress. How about this, I will get you a new dress to change into?'' Her voice was a little loud and cracky.
Niania felt like laughing, but she knew she couldn't expose her lady boss so she acted along with her by nodding her head.
''I don't need your cheap second hand clothes to wear.'' Mimi said and turned seeing Mikael Sun walking towards them.
''What is going on here?'' Mikael asked even though he knew clearly what was happening. He had watched from the side and had seen everything that happened. His eyes were full of amusement as he looked at Alice Jun.
''Mr. Sun, she poured coffee on me just now. Look at my dress?'' Mimi said as she stepped closer to Mikael .
Alice looked at Mikael feeling disgust. She folded her arms and cocked her brows at him, as if daring him to meddle in.
''Miss Song, I will have my assistant deliver a set of new wear for you in your dressing room.'' Mikael said and stepped away from Mimi's side.
''You're so kind unlike someone here.'' Mimi said and Alice chuckled, letting her charade off as she glared at Mikael.
''I'm not kind so what? I have always been this way, what are you going to do about it?'' Her words might have seemed to be directed at Mimi but the way she looked at Mikael made him realise that she was saying to him and not Mimi.
''Lower your claws cat lady!'' Mikael said and smirked.
''Then, I will go and change into a new dress.'' Mimi walked away with her two assistants.
''Didn't your assistant tell you I asked to meet with you?'' Mikael asked and took a seat on Niania's chair beside Alice.
''I was about to tell you before Mimi came.'' Niania said to Alice.
Alice turned to look at Mikael. ''That chair belongs to my assistant." She massaged her head adding. "Why does my head act so bad? Tell me. What do you need me for?''
''Shooting won't start in another 1 hour. How about we grab something to eat and talk?'' Mikael saw through her act but still suggested.
''Sorry, but, I don't eat with strangers!''
''Even if it has to do with your sister?'' Mikael asked and noticed the subtle change in Alice's face. ''Shall we?'' He asked again.
''Take the lead. But, my assistant is coming. She didn't eat anything this morning.''
''Sure, she can join my assistant and eat. Let's go Alice.''
''Miss Jun, we are not free enough to be on first name basis, Mr. Sun!''
''Yes, Miss Jun!''
Mimi stood in front of the changing room and watched with a frown as Mikael and Alice walked away.
.....
Black Horse Restaurant.
Alice looked at her assistant who was seated at a distance and chuckled. ''Tsk, tsk, tsk! Look how happy she is seeing a lot of food in front of her? Someone would think I don't feed her enough good food.''
Niania's table which she shared with Mikael's assistant had the same breakfast set that Alice and Mikael were having. Niania looked happy as she ate the food without a care.
Alice turned her face back to their table and noticed Mikael looking at her and she said to him. ''I know I am beautiful but you are not my cup of coffee, so stop looking at me like that.''
''Miss, you are not my type either. I was just trying to find any resemblance between you and Natalie.''
''You won't find any because we don't share the same genes but, we have one thing in common though. We are deadly gorgeous, stunning and beautiful!'' Alice smiled proudly as she picked her cup of milk tea to sip.
''You are just as narcissistic as I heard.''
''Same goes for you. You are the most narcissistic human being I have seen all my life. that is not important, let's hear it. What do you need to tell me about my sister?''
''You must really care about her? You two are so protective of each other'' Mikael commented as he also started eating.
''Listen to me, I don't know you and what intentions you have by approaching me but, my sister is my bottom line, if you hurt even her toe nail, I will go to hell and kill you if that is where you are. So, before you start spouting nonsense, know that I am a very vengeful person. I don't forgive especially anyone who is out to harm my sister.''
''You seem fiercer than your sister? She seems meek and calm.''
Alice picked her knife and stood up, aiming it at Mikael with a fierce look as she asked. ''Did you bully my sister? You must be tired of living, Mikael Sun!''
Mikael snatched the knife away and pushed her back saying. ''I don't bully women and don't play with dangerous objects, little girl.''
''But, you accused her of killing her husband. You have no idea the relationship between my sister and brother Thomas was, that is why you dare to accuse her of something so ridiculous."
"Also, I am not your little girl. You are just a few months older than me, don't act as if you are a 40-year-old man!''
''How was their relationship, Natalie and my brother?''
''You are not getting anything out of me. If you are that curious, why don't you ask aunt and Assistant He?''
''My brother was supporting you, I heard. He paved the way for you to enter into the entertainment industry and now you are a top star in the country and all over the continent''
''So, what is your point?'' Alice glared at him as she bit into her food.
''Nothing, I just wanted to have a chat with you and see if you're worth it. Being supported?''
Alice chuckled and looked at him. ''So, what are your thoughts upon seeing me? Am I worth it or am I a disappointment, Mr. Sun?''
''You seem worth it!'' Mikael said nodding his head.
''Mr. Sun, is your life boring? Does going around acting bossy turns you on? Whoa, you are so annoying!''
''Does playing pranks on people turn you on?'' Mikael cocked his brows at her.
''Yes, it does. I basically live off it especially when those people deserve me.'' Alice folded her arms and leaned against the chair staring back at him.
''What feud do you have with Miss Song? Does it have anything to do with your sister?'' Mikael asked and noticed the change in Alice's expression. It was subtle and went as it came but he still saw it.
Alice picked the side tissue and wiped her lips before standing to her feet. ''Mr. Sun, I just lost my appetite thanks to your unnecessary nosing and poking around. Excuse me!!''
''If you leave right now, I might just let your sister pay for your carelessness.'' Mikael said coldly making Alice stop in her strides.
Alice chuckled as she looked at him but her smile didn't reach her eyes. She looked ruthless as she said to him. ''Are you even a man? Bullying defenceless women must be a great turn on for you but, you see. I only attack those who attack me first. If you do anything to my sister, then don't be surprised if I act disrespectful. I tend to be vengeful. Pray my interest don't turn to you or you will suffer in my world of pranks. Niania, come over here, let's eat from the roadside stall.''
Alice turned to Niania and the latter stood up and hurried to her side. Alice turned to Mikael and said to him. ''Be careful Mr. Sun. watch your own back because I am not one to say no to anyone who wants to be played by me. I am quite generous; you see''
Mikael laughed as he watched them go. He took out his phone and made a call. ''I want information on Alice sent to my mail by night time.''
