Maezhei was ready to go when Zake came back then few moments later, a person rushed over, gasping for breath.
"Big boss, the things you wanted are all here. Are we starting right now?" The person who had arrived was wearing a ripped jeans and a grey cotton top; there was a very striking dark blue piercing in his left ear.
Maezhei was surprised when she realized who it was.
This is Arthur, the person under Kingdom Entertainment known as the Godly Hand, and the personal stylist of the queen of films, Veronica. This was someone so famous that a small fry like her could only admire him from afar!
"Ah... this is..?" Maezhei's face was full of suspicion. Don't tell me...
"You don't recognize him?" Zake asked.
"This is the famous makeup artist Arthur, of course I recognize him! But why did you call him over..." she hesitated.
"Naturally, he's here to style you," Zake said matter-of-factly.
Dark lines appeared on Maezhei's forehead as she moved closer to him to whisper in his ear, "You... you would actually make Kingdom Entertainment's people style me? Are you kidding me? Don't you know that I'm an artist under Star Entertainment? Kingdom Entertainment and Star Entertainment are practically enemies!"
"So what?" Zake said wearing his overbearing CEO's expression.
'So what? Did he just say that??'
Maezhei was choked with speechlessness, "Mr. Deguzs, do your employees know that you are asking them to help artists from other company?"
From the looks of it, they didn't have any idea!
Zake glanced down at his watch pretending that he didn't hear her question. "The minivan is in the front outside. You can do your makeup on the road. You should have enough time to get there. Whether you go or not is up to you."
She really felt defeated by him!
'For pete's sake! Kingdom Entertainment is a subsidiary of your Deguzs Empire!'
Though Zifan was the one who managed the Kingdom Entertainment, the ultimate boss behind the scenes was Zake Deguzs!
What if his employees learn about this? That their Big Boss was helping the enemy's artist? Goodness!!
In the last five years, Deguzs Empire stepped into the entertainment industry when they took over Kingdom Entertainment, and created an entertainment empire which was able to compete against the oldest and most established entertainment company, Star Entertainment.
The current rivalry between the two companies was very intense. Employees in the different companies, from the artists and managers to the stylists and assistants, never got along. Clashes were inevitable when both companies had employees on the same set...
Maezhei's stomach tightened painfully, but she still gritted her teeth, " Fine. I'm going!"
Anyways, she has no choice and... who the heck is she to decline his offer anyway? Even if she wanted to, she can't because she badly need his help right now!
Since the Big Boss wasn't bothered about it, then she wouldn't care about it either!
Maezhei walked towards the minivan that was parked in front of the gate but as she was about to open the backseat door, she noticed that Zake followed her.
"You're going too?" she asked him.
"Who else is going to drive? Also, Little White Tiger wants to be with you a bit longer." He said and made it sound so natural and logical, like she had asked a silly question.
"Huh? You're going to drive? Is there no available driver?" she asked.
"Yes," he said plainly.
She looked at him suspiciously.
Platinum Residence has no available drivers? That's impossible, right? - she asked herself.
"Then, how about Great Whi--- I mean, Snowy? Isn't it dangerous if he will come too?" but right after she finished her sentence, a white tiger suddenly approached her.
Seeing the white tiger rubbing his face on her, her expression soften.
"Okay..." she said defeated.
Zifan who just came was dumbfounded.
Just a little coax to her and she will immediately give in? - he told himself.
In the end three people and one cute little white tiger got into the minivan.
At the same time at ZD Building.
"Are you sure no one told her about the Opening Ceremony?"
"Yes, I've warned the other employees already."
"Good. I don't want any mistakes today. But make sure to inform her about it when it started," Silica said while doing her manicure.
The manager nodded.
They still have an hour before the Opening Ceremony will start. And when Silica was done dressing up they only have twenty minutes before the show starts. As they were about to leave someone entered her condo.
"Dylan!" Silica excuredly called after seeing him.
"What are you doing here?" she asked.
"I wanted to see you before you go," he said softly then gave her a peck on her cheeks.
"Sir Dylan, you're so sweet. I hope I could also find a man like you," the manager commented.
"Sorry Mia, but there is only one Dylan in this lifetime and he is mine," she said then hug Dylan.
The manager just smiled and then excused herself to give them some privacy.
"Sorry, I can't come with you. I have a business meeting to attend today."
"It's okay but you promised to attend to the dinner party. You'll attend, right?"
"Of course, I'll be there," he said. He put a distance to their faces then looked at her and asked, "Are you nervous?"
"A while ago, yes, but now that I see you, I am not anymore."
Dylan chuckled.
"By the way, Maezhei will be there," Silica said.
Dylan sighed, "I talked to her and tried to convince her but she's stubborn. I don't know what to do about your sister anymore. Just take care of her while she was there okay?"
Take care of her? Yeah. I will surely take care of her. - Silica grimaced.
"Don't worry, I won't let anyone bully her," she said while smiling that didn't reach her eyes. " But I don't think that she forgives me already. Sister is still mad at me..."
"It's okay. I'm sure she will eventually forgive us," he said coaxing her.
Although, they've been together for five years now, he still cared about that sister of her. Silica knows about the investigator that he hired looking for her. He was secretly searching her for this past few years. But as long as she was around, she won't let her get closer to him. Dylan is hers. The Dayone is hers period.
"Let's go. the Opening Ceremony will start soon."
After saying that, they left her condo. They only separated when they were at the lobby of the building.
