Loving A STRANGER Chapter 184
Advertisement
As Khloe and Lily walked through the crowd, Lily suddenly stopped and pointed at someone and shouted, "Khloe, look! Is that Director Miller? I think that it is!"
"Bullshit!" Khloe replied. "He wasn't involved in The Tea Maiden. Why would he be here? What is he doing here? Does someone invite him?"
"Take another look," Lily encouraged her, pointing to another person.
Khloe squinted and looked in the direction that Lily had pointed. From the back, she could see that the man certainly had the same body type as Miller. His hair was the same grey color as Millar's was, but, without seeing his face, there was no way of knowing for sure – it was then that the man turned around, and Lily's observation was proven to be true.
Khloe was ecstatic. Ever since his last divorce, she'd dreamt of randomly running into him and courting him. Perhaps, she thought to herself, and I will finally get my chance at becoming the next Mrs. Miller.
Not wanting to waste a single moment, she led Lily over to Miller and made his acquaintance. Even if he doesn't want to court me, she thought to herself, and perhaps I might be able to charm myself into one of his next movies. If I play my cards right, I might actually get the opportunity to crush Kylie under my foot! I can't let this opportunity slip away!
Once Kylie was able to get away from Khloe and Lily, she made her way over to Johnson to thank him for the opportunities he'd given her.
"No need to thank me," he replied. "In this industry, you make your own opportunities. I am nothing but a facilitator. The Audience loved you in The Tea Maiden because you won them over. Now, with Trailblazers coming out, there is no doubt that you will find great things in this field. You were the one who made The Tea Maiden a success, so I should be thanking you. You showed your great talent and acting skills, Kylie, no doubt about it! Your pretty face is only an added factor. Remember, opportunity knocks once, so make sure to exert your effort and invest your talent on it," He showed a pleasant smile after saying all these praises.

Johnson raised his glass of wine and offered a toast to Kylie; to the things that she'd already accomplished and the things she had yet to do. Kylie raised her glass, and then they drank together.
"If any good scripts come my way," Johnson concluded, "you are the first person that I will think of – and that is the truth! I saw your acting skills, and you deserve to be recognized,"
"That would mean a lot to me," Kylie replied. "I don't have any projects lined up, so my schedule is free for the time being. If in case you have a good movie or another drama series, I am willing to be a part of it,"
Johnson thought about it for a minute, and then he said, "You know? I might actually have something for you already. I received a script on my desk this morning. I would be honored if you would consider coming in and reading for the leading lady. Just try it, I will be waiting for you,"
"Oh, thank you so much! I will check on it soon!"
On the side, Khloe and Lily are heading towards Director Miller.
Khloe offered Miller her hand and said, "Director Miller, I saw you standing over here, and I could not help but come over and introduce myself. My name is Khloe, and I am a huge fan of yours."
Miller looked at her hand and scowled at her as if she'd offered him a piece of shit. "Who the fuck are you?" he snapped. "Can't you see that I'm talking to someone right now?" A sound of sarcasm added to his voice.
"I… I'm sorry," Khloe stammered as her hand dropped to her side. "My name is Khloe Finch; from Garcia Entertainment." She was embarrassed, but she still tries to remain calm not to lose her face in front of Lily.

"Director Miller," Lily interjected, "you met Khloe once on Hot Topic. Don't you remember? You even praised her acting publically…"
Khloe looked at Miller and smiled meekly as she deliberately straightened her body in order to accentuate her breasts. "Director Miller," she said, "don't you remember me? What Lily told you was true,"
Director Miller looked her up and down and said, "Honestly, I don't remember you. Never mind, though, there doesn't seem to be anything about you that is worth remembering. Are you really an actress, or are you here to serve the particular needs that men have? Your way of dressing up seems to invite men to be your bed partner," Director Miller brutally said his opinion against Khloe.
Khloe looked confused. She did not understand the implications of what he'd asked her, but Lily caught on right away. "He thinks that you're a prostitute," she said out loud. Lily silently mocked Khloe this time, yet she held back her words not to make Khloe embarrassed.
Khloe's face turned bright red, and her jaw almost hit the floor. She was very angry, but she didn't dare to start a fight in front of all of these people. "Director Miller," she gasped, "you've misunderstood me completely. I am an actress, not what you think. I just approach you because, as I said, I am one of your avid fans,"
"Oh, but your manner portrays that you wanted some special event tonight. Huh, what a shameless woman. I suggest you find another target because I feel disgusted seeing you like this," He added another insult to Khloe.
Khloe quickly responded, "My father is a big investor in different movies and shows!"
"Whatever," Miller laughed. "Go away. I grow tired of your face. I'm not interested in spending my precious time chatting with nobody like you,"
Khloe totally felt degraded. She felt aggrieved because her aim is only to get Director Miller's attention not to be humiliated.
