Loving A STRANGER Chapter 443
Advertisement
"Well, we come here today..." When Vivian wanted to say something, a reporter interrupted her again.
"Peak Pictures is your husband's company, while Garcia Entertainment is yours. Are you considering a merger between them so that it'll become the leading company in the entertainment industry?"
Kylie shrugged. "Isn't Peak Pictures already the leading company in the entertainment industry?"
The reporter was struck dumb for a second.
Who dared say Peak Pictures wasn't the leading company in the entertainment industry?
Countless actors who worked for Peak Pictures had won the prizes of the Best Actor and the Best actress.
Countless films produced by Peak Pictures had won different kinds of film prizes.
Seeing everyone being quiet for a moment, Kylie smiled to create a relaxing atmosphere. "Let me share a secret of keeping love alive with you."
"No matter how much your man loves you, you must have your own career. A canary in the cage can't have a man's, long-lasting love." Most of the reporters were women, and they nodded as agreement.
Kylie then drew their attention back to the new show. "Oh, Mother is also a new TV series which focuses on the problems a woman might encounter in her life. It's a story about the in-law relationships, and how a woman manages to keep a balance between her family and work."
"Kylie will be the leading actress, and I..." Vivian tried to join them.
However, a reporter stopped her once more. "Who will be your mother-in-law, Kylie?"
"Your husband in the show and your husband in real life. Which do you think is more handsome?"
"It's your first time acting as a mother with a kid. Do you have any related experience?"
"How many kids do you plan to have after being married?"
"Do you prefer a boy or a girl?"

Reporters were bombarding Kylie with questions and ignored Vivian. Vivian felt utterly embarrassed but didn't dare show it on her face.
Finally, the interview ended, and Vivian followed Kylie walking to the Wyatt brothers.
"Kylie, how are you today?" Bill asked with concern.
"I'm fine, thanks, Director Wyatt." Kylie stopped.
Harvey's eyes lit up the second he saw Vivian. He walked by Kylie and came to Vivian.
"When can we hang out again?"
Vivian wore a fake smile. "You can do whatever you want when my part is almost done in the show." She must make sure her benefit was safe.
Harvey nodded, then turned to Kylie. "Kylie, I hate to say this, but I find a better actress for the female supporting role."
Kylie gave Vivian a glance. "Sure, Vivian indeed is more suitable than Elizabeth."
Hearing that, Vivian felt much better. "Kylie, thanks, and I still need to learn a lot from you."
"Ha-ha, we can learn from each other," Kylie said.
Kate walked over at this moment, and she hugged Kylie before she said, "Did you see my 'son'?"
"Not yet. He's quite mysterious," Kylie replied.
"He's not mysterious actually, but you left early yesterday, so you didn't see him," Kate said, then glanced at Vivian. "She really immerses herself in the show, and she barely could move a step when she saw my 'son'."
Kylie was amused and almost laughed aloud.
The female supporting role Vivian fought for was a client of the leading actor in the show. She did everything to get a study report from the leading actor, including seduced him.
After failing to bribe the leading actor, she undressed on the leading actor's bed.
She was also the fuse of the divorce of the leading actor and leading actress.
"As long as the show is attractive, we don't care whether it's real or not real." Kylie shrugged again.

When they were talking about the leading actor, the leading actor walked inside.
The meeting place got excited, and a tall slim man showed up. He was wearing glasses and looked like a well-educated gentleman.
At a certain moment, Kylie thought Stephen was walking in.
She focused on the man's face, then recognized he was the Most Popular Actor of this year, James Hughes. No wonder why Vivian fell in love with him at first sight.
Thinking of Vivian, Kylie turned to give her a glance.
Vivian's eyes moved away from Harvey the moment James appeared, and she tried to strike up a conversation with James but was stopped by Harvey. "What are you going to do?"
"To gain some attention." Vivian smiled. "I can't waste the chance you give me."
Harvey was suspicious. "He's already married, and it's universally acknowledged in entertainment circles that James will never divorce his wife even though everyone is divorced."
"Nonsense!" Vivian gently knocked her fist against Harvey's chest. "I need a good man in bed, not a good-looking man." Saying that, she made eyes at Harvey.
Harvey wore an evil smile. "The shooting will begin tomorrow. Why don't we have some fun tonight?"
"Whatever you want." Vivian ached to attract the media's attention, so she agreed on whatever Harvey said.
However, when she strode to James, the interview was over.
James turned around and almost hit Vivian. He stepped backward at once. "Are you alright?"
Vivian seemed shy. "Yeah. Are you all alright? I'm so sorry that I almost knocked you."
"It's fine." James shook his hand.
"Shall we go over now?" Vivian licked her thin lips. "It's about to take a photo of all the actors and the director."
"Sure." James followed Vivian walking ahead.
Kate planned to pull James over and let him stand between her and Kylie because James was her son and Kylie's husband in the show.
Nonetheless, Vivian followed James closely behind, so Kate moved near to Kylie on purpose and left no space for other people.
James disliked competing for a position in a photo, so he directly stood at the farthest side when everyone stood well.
Vivian, instead, wanted to stand in the center, so she said to James, "James, you're the leading actor, and you should stand in the center." Saying that, she helped him move forward to the center. "Please, let us go through, thanks."
Other actors looked at Vivian with obvious disdain, but beamed and stood aside when they noticed James behind her.
James stood by Kate's side at the end, and Vivian stood close to him.
Although others disliked Vivian, they thought she was James's friend when she helped him walk to the center.
For the sake of James, other people had to be polite to her.
When the photographer pressed the shutter, Vivian's proud face was captured in the photo.
After taking the photo, the banquet would begin in half an hour. Vivian seized this chance to touch up her make-up and ran into Faith, who was leaving "by accident."
"Oh, isn't this, Faith, the famous agent, and assistant?" Vivian stopped Faith. "I was just thinking about why you were absent today, and Kylie came with a new girl. To my surprise, you are here!"
Faith was annoyed about what had happened today, and now felt quite displeased when Vivian brought it up.
Vivian added, "I don't think Kylie will dump you once she's famous. You were by her side when she was nobody, after all. Right?"

The Isekai Police (aka "Earth's Advocates")
When evil kings summon kids from Earth to be used and abused as fast-leveling soldiers in their petty wars, the Isekai Police will be there to stop them. A group of ex-isekai protagonists in their own right, they utilize their collective skills to fight for the end of summoning abuse. Artyom Choi, cynical ex-hero and founding member of the organization, is sent to investigate the presence of an Earther on an innocently idyllic World where no summoning has supposedly taken place. His mission: rescue the Earther and figure out how he got there. Dark secrets lie beneath the surface of paradise, however. Will he be able to find this new hero and get out before whatever malicious forces brought them there doom them both? Book 1 has been finished! You can read Book 2 here in parallel or even before Book 1 if you want more TOAL than Artyom! https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/47708/the-isekai-police-hero-summonings-are-overrated This story is meant to be a deconstruction of the isekai genre that references and sometimes pokes fun at various tropes. Artyom isn’t some kid whose goal is to amass Levels or a harem. In fact, all he cares about is protecting other Earthers, and won’t let anything like that get in the way! So expect to see: -A mature main character who still has some flaws. -Character development over the course of the story. -No harems! (see last point) -A vibrant world full of interesting people, deep culture, and mysterious lore that gets uncovered as the story goes on. -Plenty of funny moments along the way! -The presence of a few cliched tropes and stereotypes only for the sake of poking fun at them. So step in, take the first leap, and uncover the next hot take on this expansive genre! My discord here: https://discord.gg/Zc8CHSrxVr
