Loving A STRANGER Chapter 80
Advertisement
When she saw him lift a heavy dumbbell with ease, she whistled.
"Cool!" She walked towards him and felt his arm muscles.
When he exercised, he wore a black top with sporty shorts. When he exerted greater strength, his muscles became bigger and more obvious.
Especially his biceps and chest muscles…
"Breakfast is ready…" She swallowed deeply and looked like a starving cat facing a delicious meal.
He dropped the dumbbells, and wiped some of the sweat from his body "I'm all sweaty."
When he looked at her like that, smiling and covered in sweat, she wanted to touch him even more. But her phone began to ring.
Her eyes were still glued to his body, so she answered the phone without looking at who was calling.
Then she heard Lucas's voice. He was furious.
"Kylie Finch!" Look at what you did! I told you not to get involved with this show! I told you that you would disgrace the company, but you didn't listen. Now the company is in jeopardy because of you!"
She was shocked. "What did I do?"
"What did you do?! Go search it online. Now I'm telling you, I'm absolutely done being your agent. You can do whatever you want!"
She ran downstairs and logged onto Instagram.
But she couldn't seem to get on. She tried one more time.
Lucas Jackson was both Khloe and Kylie's agent. He took good care of Khloe's Instagram account, but he ignored Kylie's since she only had about a thousand followers.
When she was not busy, she would sometimes post funny stories, but very few people ever commented.
She was forced to log out again because the text she had posted in Connell was being commented on by more than ten thousand people.
She stopped and looked at all the comments. Then she realized what was happening.

Everyone was trashing her.
Yesterday afternoon, someone had posted a video on Instagram with the title: "Kylie Finch doesn't need to play a bitch. She is just herself. Look at how she seduces male actors."
In the video, a man and a woman were walking towards a black BMW. The next moment, the car was shaking seriously.
The camera zoomed in on them, and a strange sound was coming from the car…
Some fans recognized the man in the video as their idol, William Woolf.
A few minutes later, there was another video.
It clearly showed the man in profile…
William Woolf was trying to wipe the black paint from her face, but Kylie grabbed his hand. It looked like she was tightly holding his hand and forcing him to touch her face.
With just a bit of editing, someone had managed to make the video look like Kylie was taking advantage of William Woolf.
The post also said that this was what Kylie Finch was always like. Apparently, she had seduced the producer to land the leading role. But the director knew what kind of person she was, so he hadn't cast her in the end.
Then the producer had given her a minor supporting role for sleeping with him.
But Kylie couldn't accept that, so she had started harassing William Woolf, and had even made this video in an effort to threaten him. So, William had had no choice but to play her partner in the show, so that Kylie Finch could get more lines.
William was the person who had posted the second video. He didn't want anybody else to get hurt, so he'd published the video for everyone to see what kind of woman Kylie really was.
What a coincidence. The text she had posted that day in Connell was: "What you want is not far away."

William Woolf's fans were so mad. They pleaded with the managers to replace her. Or they would no longer watch the show.
She was reading all the comments then she received another message. It was from Lucas Jackson.
"Post an apologetic statement to save the company."
Kylie sneered. "Apologize?"
If any of the other actors and actresses in the company had encountered this kind of dilemma, someone would have taken care of it for them, instead of quitting on them. They would have wanted to minimize the damage, but Lucas…
If she were to apologize, then she would be admitting that it was all her fault.
Her eyes were cold.
She had just run into Khloe at Connell. Then the video came out. There's no way that it was just a coincidence.
Kylie wanted to ignore Khloe; she wanted her out of her life. But apparently, Khloe was intent on provoking her, so now there was no way that Kylie could back down.
Before she had the time to explain the situation, her husband was standing next to her and reading the crap on her phone.
He took out his phone from his pocket and started searching through his contacts.
Kylie looked and saw him select a name from the list.
It was the CEO of Peak Pictures. She was a capable woman with many resources in the entertainment industry. She had helped many actors and actresses before. There were rumors that she had never received much of an education, but she was still one of the best in the industry.
Kylie took his phone away. "What are you doing?"
"I will take care of it for you." He looked calm but quietly angry.
She nodded and gave him back his phone. "You should trust me. If I can't take care of it myself, how can I work in the industry?" she said.
He closed his mouth, and his nose twitched.
Kylie knew that he was still mad. In other words, she thought that he didn't believe she could handle it by herself.
She held his arm, and they walked downstairs together. "You are such a wonderful husband. I am just trying to be as good as you."
"I will protect my girl." He sounded aggressive.
Kylie smiled and said: "Of course, if I can't handle it myself, I will ask my husband to do it for me. But before that, can you let me try to do it myself?"
Ethan Parker nodded, staring at her. He couldn't refuse her. "But remember that you have a husband."
"Of course. A very badass husband!" Then she saw him frown. She quickly closed her mouth in shame.
Shit, she sounded like an idiot again!

A Fractal Divide
Lesivar is a city in ascendancy. With recent innovations in magical crafting, the common people are experiencing a boom in comfort and wealth. The nobility, long used to being the stewards of knowledge and power, struggle to adapt to the new world in which they find themselves. A precarious balance has been maintained throughout, but forces stir beneath the surface threatening to send the city spiraling into chaos. This is my first attempt at writing anything longer than a short story, and I welcome any feedback or corrections. I'm posting this as I write, with each chapter going live upon completion. My current pace is about a chapter a day, which I expect to take my through the end of November. From there, I'm shooting for a chapter every two-three days until the book is completed, along with an editing pass of what is already up. I'm planning on three POV characters with unique insight into the story as it unfolds. Each chapter will contain only one POV. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
