CHAPTER 2: THE FEMALE SUPERSTAR
Winter’s POV
“You are the only man in my life, Daniel. I will die for you.” I said as I put my hands around his shoulders.
He looked straight into my eyes and cupped both of my cheeks.”You are the only one for me, Rachel. I will never love anyone the way I love you. I don’t think I can live this life without you, either. You are my everything.”
Slowly, he moved his face closer to me. And when there was just an inch away for us to kiss-
“Cut!” the director shouted.
I immediately moved away from him. “Olivia! Water, please!”
“Good job, Winter and Wilson! The two of you are really the best couple in the industry!” director Oliver complimented me and Wilson.
“Thanks, director. By the way, can I go now? I actually have dinner with my family tonight, so I need to prepare.”
He nodded his head with a smile on his face. “Sure, Winter. You can now take some beauty rest and go back here tomorrow for our last episode.”
“Okay!”
After that, I finally left the place with my personal assistant, Olivia. We hopped inside my limousine to go to a salon.
“Oh, if it’s not my most beautiful and favorite customer, Winter Wesley!” the owner of the salon, Patricia, welcomed us with a smile on her face.
“I just want to have the ends of my hair permed. I’m meeting my family tonight.” I said as I was about to sit in my favorite spot when I suddenly saw a woman sitting there while busy staring at herself in the mirror.
I immediately walked to her. “Excuse me? What are you doing there in my seat?”
With a dramatic flipping of her hair, she turned around and looked at me with a raised eyebrow. “H-Huh? Excuse me?”
“That is my seat.”I retorted.
She narrowed her eyes at me. “Your seat? Can’t you see I’m already sitting here? And how sure are you that this is your seat? Do you have your name here? Did you buy this salon?!”
“I can if I want to. And I can also crush that fake nose of yours if you don’t move there.” I threatened her.
And as expected, she was immediately got shocked because of what I said. “W-What did you just say?!”
“At the count of three, you will move to the other side or I will kick your ass out of this salon?”
“H-Hey, do you want me to—
“One. Two…”
“M-Miss, please just go away… please. If you don’t want to make a fuss here…” Olivia told the woman.
But the woman just won’t back out. She just stood up and glared at me. “I don’t care who you are or if you can buy this salon. But if you—
“Three. Now, get the hell out of my way!” I yelled as I pushed her so hard that she fell down to the floor.
“How dare you push me like that, you witch!”
She was about to stand up, but then I kicked her face with my stiletto and that caused her nose to bleed. I was about to kick her again, but then she just stood up while crying and left the salon.
What a coward.
“Olivia, give me the alcohol.”
“Y-Yes, Winter.”
That bitch. That’s what she deserves. No one ever dares to mess with me, ever.
“Winter, you can’t do that again, okay? You can’t make trouble here all the time. What if someone takes a video and posts it on the internet? Then all of your fans will be gone!” Haley, my manager, said to me.
“Shut up, Haley. Don’t be so noisy, okay? You’re adding up the stress that I get because of the current series that we’re filming.”
Haley heaved a sigh. “I’m just warning you. Even if you are the most popular celebrity in the country right now, that doesn’t mean you can just do whatever you want. You need to maintain your good image in order for your fans to stay with you.”Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Fine, fine. Whatever. Just stop talking already, okay?”
“I don’t even know what to do with you, Winter. You are just so lucky that you are pretty and loved by many people. By the way, speaking of the series that you’re filming right now. I heard it still has the highest rating. I guess the tragedy of the Lockwood family still catches the audience’s interest.”
“Simply because the audience loves it when a tragedy is being romanticized. By the way, when I searched about that Lockwood family tragedy, I found out that Daniel and Rachel Lockwood actually had twins. And they were even present during the 100th anniversary of their company. Where are they now? Did they survive the killings?”
Haley shrugged. “Actually, no one actually knows if the twins actually survived or not. But after that tragedy, no one heard about them anymore. That is why people just believed that maybe they also got killed.”
“Did they catch the killer? Do they know who planned all of that?”
“No one knows either. Until now, the killer who planned to kill the entire Lockwood family remains a mystery. And for some reason, even the greatest investigators weren’t able to trace them. That is why many conspiracies had been made up. Like, maybe they are just hiding. Or maybe the people in that event killed each other because they were on drugs that night. ”
“That’s so stupid. Maybe the killer paid the investigators to remain quiet about the truth.”
“Maybe. But you know what? I actually heard the Lockwood family is actually one of the most beautiful families back then. The twins are really good-looking children. And actually, as I’ve heard, the twins have identical birthmarks that show a crown-like figure. That only shows that they were really born to be royals.”
I rolled my eyes. “Who cares, anyway? They are now dead. I’m not even interested in them.”
“I know, I know. But for sure, if the twins are still alive, you would fall for one of them, too.”
“Shut up, Haley. Even if they are the richest family in the world, I won’t fall for someone who is involved in controversies.”
