Teaming Up with System 225

Prince of Acting (11)

In times of darkness and in times of struggle, a seed would be planted in the hearts of everyone. Guiding their way, protecting them, and helping them through the darkness. There would be times when the darkness would pull the roots out of some hearts, but at the end of the day, what connected the hearts of the people was the root of the planted seed that was Vincent's existence.

This theory was then confirmed by the producers. It was the theme of the TV show. This had sparked their ratings to the highest it had ever been, more so than when the original Alec was there.

With the success of the show, the crew, the actors, and rich folks gathered at the hotel to celebrate.

In the Grand Hall of Ellington Hotel, the huge reception hall was decorated with the TV show's fantasy theme. A red carpet was rolled down the middle to the other side of the room where another door was placed. The white marble floor was polished to perfection and had rose petals scattered across the floor. The place looked just like the castle's ballroom with gold lavishing the walls and pillars, flowers in porcelain vases, sparkles, and glitter that danced in the dim lights. Round tables and chairs were scattered around the edges of the room, leaving the middle for people to socialize and dance. The scenery of the room made it seem like people had jumped into the TV show, making the guests happy.

As the main "villain" of the TV show, naturally, Alec had arrived early with Damien. He wore a simple, but form-fitted, black tuxedo with a black bowtie. Damien and Alec wore matching tuxedos, drawing attention from the crowd of people. The two were both extremely handsome, their heights were a bit similar, with Damien just a bit taller. Similar physiques, but Alec had a chilling and mysterious air around him while Damien seemed more elegant and noble. The two complimented each other very well.

Everyone knew Damien was Alec's manager, but he didn't pale in comparison when standing next to Alec. He complimented Alec's looks, so the two looked like they came straight out of a painting.

Many people flocked to greet Alec and congratulate him on the successful season. Alec calmly and slowly thanked everyone around him. He then greeted the other cast and crew members, expressing how much it was an honor to work with them.

Damien followed behind Alec closely, making sure no one bumped into him.

After greeting everyone, Alec decided to eat and rest at a table. Damien grabbed all of Alec's favorite foods and brought the food to him. They were sharing their plates, unaware of the many eyes that were on them.

"Here, eat this, you need more vegetables," Damien said as he picked up some broccoli and put it on Alec's smaller plate.

"Thank you," Alec replied, obediently eating it.

"Here, this shrimp tastes really good too."

"Hmm."

It was normal for Damien to be attentive to Alec, but this was the first time people witnessed it.

"You both are quite close. You look more like a married couple than a manager and actor." Stephan walked by with a smile on his face but only a few others knew that he was irritated at the fact Alec had the center of attention instead of him, the main character of today's party.

"Married?" Alec looked over at Damien with a slight blush on his face. "Hmm... not really." He looked very shy.

Damien felt like he was attacked by Alec's cuteness and almost pulled the man into a hug.

Stephan's eyes twitched watching their lovey-dovey mood that was created unconsciously. He could even say, Alec seemed a little cute, and that's what annoyed him the most.

"Well, I hope you enjoy the party, and let's hope we star in another movie or TV show together." Stephan then walked away without hearing Alec's reply. Most people thought he was being nice, and some picked up the hostility in his voice. His hand moved oddly, before being put into his pockets. No one else saw this but Alec.
