Chapter 1883
"Would you believe me if I said I'm here to make you a star?"
Sophie ripped up the old contract and laid out a much sweeter deal. Her eyes were full of determination and sincerity. I've seen
plenty of eyes in my time, but none quite like hers.
I had already mapped out my departure from Russell Entertainment; everything was ready, just waiting for one phone call to set
things in motion. But Sophie's offer was way more tempting. And honestly, it sounded like a lot more fun.
After mulling it over for a bit, I gave Sophie my final answer, "I'm in." She seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
As soon as Sophie left, another agency tried to woo me, but I turned them down. I couldn't help but wonder how Sophie planned
to make me famous.
company threw everything they had into making me a star.
The Russell Entertainment I returned to seemed like a whole new place. This young woman was incredible; she dealt with the
pests in Russell Entertainment like it was nothing. It was like she had a crystal ball or something, which made me curious to dig
into her background. But her history was squeaky clean.
In the end, even I stopped trying to figure her out. Maybe she was just that smart. It was odd though, she was younger than me,
yet she often looked at me like I was the kid.
My whole identity was a sham; my college credentials were fake, and even my age on paper was a lie. In reality, I'm a year older
than Adler. But Sophie didn't know any of this, and I had no intention of letting her find out.
Every day at Russell Entertainment, Sophie was hustling to get me out there, sometimes without a care for the costs. Her
approach made me chuckle-any boss would be all about the bottom line, but she was throwing everything into me without a
second thought.
I asked her why. She looked at me with a touch of guilt and said, "Because I owe someone a lot, and I need to pay it back in this
lifetime."
The way she looked at me, it was like she was saying the person she owed was me. But I couldn't remember her owing me
anything.
True to her promise, Sophie turned me into a household name in just six months. I became a superstar, and within a year, I was
crowned Best Actor.
This path was one that Sophie paved just for me. She said I was destined to be
an international star. In anyone's hands, this star would never dim.
My acting was spot-on; Sophie couldn't find a single flaw. And playing Reece, the Best Actor, for so long, I started to forget who I
really was. wasn't some Best Actor with a tragic past. I wasn't the perfect Reece everyone thought I was.
I had a reason for becoming the Best Actor, had my own path to walk. But somewhere along the line, my path started to veer off
course. Even though I kept moving forward, Sophie was like a butterfly leading me, soaring ahead, and I just found myself
following her.
And slowly, I lost my own way. Ahead was a light, a path I'd never seen before.
She promised to take me international. It echoed what my father used to say. But one path led to the light, the other to darkness.
