Chasing After My Wife Chapter 259
Advertisement
After the second time that Travis woke up in short span of time, he didn't gain consciousness again. It's been three days and Jillyanna skipped work for three days as well to make sure the she sees him. But there was no Travis calling her or Travis opening his eyes to see her.
"Are you really upset because of what happened?" Jillyanna spoke to him once again. "I will go home for now to display our wedding photos. It arrived yesterday and I wanted to put it myself. Are you really not going to see me?" There was no response. Jillyanna felt hopeless once again and decided to give up. "Alright. I won't be back until evening."
She grabbed her things from the couch and walked out of the room without giving him a goodbye kiss. She was really upset because she didn't get herself a chance to explain or answer his question. 'What if he will take it against me? He won't be unreasonable, right?' She kept these thoughts to herself as she went out of the hospital with several body guards following her.
Around 10 o'clock in the morning, Riley was dressed in a long and elegant black dress. There was a slit on the other side of thigh down to her foot which showed her long and white legs. She was wearing a black gloves and her hair was tied up high in a messy bun, yet she looked alluring and beautiful.
"Is she here for the audition? Why is she wearing such elegant dress? This isn't a ball you know?"
"I know right? How can you move if they asked you to fight for a scene with that dress?"
"She's new yet she's arrogant!"
"Hmp! This is just for a second-female lead role but she won't get it."

"Isn't that the new artist from J Entertainment?"
"The one who got through back door?"
"Must be good in bed."
Riley ignored their chattering as if they didn't exist in his world. Right now, she was busy texting with someone who went to work with Jackie. Even though Jillyanna skipped her duty as the CEO, Jackie and Shein didn't want to do the same. They wanted to check and guard the empire while the emperor and empress were away.
"Do your best! Don't disappoint your mentor." Shein sent her a message which made her smile. He was clearly talking about Jillyanna, the only person who taught them how to act, in case they needed it to escape from some hoodlums. Kidnapping was very rampant and Jillyanna didn't want them to fall victims in such situation. Therefore, she taught them all sort of things and that includes acting.
"I will win this for sure." she replied confidently with a smile. She looked so beautiful that even the assistant, who came out to announce the procedure, was stunned to see her.
Wynwyn picked up the number for her and went back to sit beside her. "You're no.15."
"Okay." Riley responded before putting away her phone. "By the way Miss Wyn, aren't you the head of PR Department?"
"Yes, I am. What about it?"
"Why didn't I see you doing your job?"
Wynwyn's jaw dropped at her silly question. It could really be seen how innocent she was with regards to the industry she's working.
"Silly girl. That is why it is called a department because there are other people like me who will protect the image of our artists and company. I will only do it if the case is rather difficult and if it is about the CEO and Jillyanna. And now, for you as well. At the same time, our artists aren't troublesome people. They knew how to behave and fight when needed."

"I see. I'm glad I made the right choice." Riley muttered to herself before looking in front of her where people gossiped and talked behind the backs of other artists.
It wasn't even ten minutes yet and there were seven people who got rejected and kicked out of the audition room. They could even hear the angry shouts of the director, making them more nervous and anxious.
"Are you nervous?" Wynwyn asked Riley who kept looking at her phone but no message came.
"I am not nervous. He can shout all he wants, it is not me who will lose my voice anyway."
"Correct. Just stay calm and proceed. You don't have to be upset if you get rejected."
"I won't be rejected."
"You have such confidence? Don't come crying to me then if they will shatter your dream."
Riley just rolled her eyes and prepared herself. She stood up from her seat and walked towards the door just in time for no.14 to come out with gloomy face.
The assistant of the director saw Riley and asked for her number. Riley handed to her the small piece of paper with no.15. The assistant led her inside the room and everyone turned silent.
Riley walked like an elegant aristocrat who was ready for a ball but her eyes and smile were cold that they felt a shiver ran down from their spine to their toes.
"Name please?" The director snapped out of his reverie first and asked her the most basic question.
"Riley Summer."
"Summer? How are you related to those Summers that got jailed not long ago?"
"I don't know. I am an orphan and I don't know anyone with same surname as me until I came to this city."
"I know this is rather personal but we don't want to work with someone who's related to criminals." The director told her with calm demeanor and Riley looked at him with same expression.
"I've got no problem with that. I am not tied to them anyway."
"Alright then. If you say so. I will believe your words and will hold you accountable if you are lying."
"Sure. I don't mind."
Her calm and collected countenance won the director and the other big shots who came to watch the audition.
"Proceed and make me say wow."

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
