Chapter 91
Seoul, Korea
Twilight Theater
“That one is Hwang Sang-Hee,” Dae-Ho whispered, motioning towards the loud man across the room with his chin. “The scowling woman next to him texting is his manager Jang Min; she’s the devil and has been trying to ruin my father for years.”
Lucien nodded his understanding. “That is the man that put his hands on your cousin and that you have compromising video of?”
“Yes, and I want to release it,” he grumbled. “Lula said no, and to hold off. Will took the video and said he’ll make it go global when the time was right.”
“If you release it now, it will delay the production or wrap it completely, and that is not fair to your cousin or anyone else involved in the production. Keeping that incriminating information until it truly needs released will mean you will always have an ace up your sleeve. The pictures they released of them arguing on set, they were edited to tell the story they wanted to tell. Will recovered all of them and added the pictures to your file of hate.”
Dae-Ho cracked his knuckles, his jaw clenching.
“They did not tell you because they did not want you seeing him hit your cousin. You would do something foolish like attack him, as you are wanting to do now,” Lucien pointed out with a chuckle. “Your short temper is rather sexy.”
“Stop flirting when on the clock,” Kita scolded, joining them with Rain. “Did Lula pull Will from the restroom?”
They shook their heads.
“Give us ten,” Lula said, her voice coming through their ear pieces. “William is having issues.”
Kita fought to keep from growling under his breath in frustration.
“Stick your tongue down his throat and he will be fine,” Lucien suggested.
“Shut up,” Lula complained when Will voiced his agreement with the suggestion.
More and more people in the reception area were looking at them, their attention on Myo Mi-Sun.
“Are you okay?” Kita asked under his breath, his hand resting on the small of her back. He stepped into Rain more, closing the little bit of distance between them in order to protect her properly.
That was his professional reasoning for it.
The truth was, he was feeling murdery, as Rain called it, because of the attention she was getting.
In actuality it was jealousy that was clouding his better judgement, but that was an unknown concept to Kita, something he’s never felt before, so he was calling it murdery longing.
Rain nodded, leaning into him more. “This is normal. Hwang Sang-Hee will be the first to come over,” she said, purposely not looking at her co-star on the other side of the reception area. “His agent will follow to eventually pull him away and to someone else in the industry that she’s trying to get in bed with, in a matter of speaking. The Director won’t approach; the Production House forced him to cast Gok Soo as the female lead and he didn’t agree with it and thinks it is my fault. The Producer didn’t expect me to show up to the premier; he was hoping to cash in on a violation of contract, which now he can’t. I would never give him the pleasure,” she sneered under her breath, causing Kita to smirk.
He rather liked the scathing side of Seon Rain.
“That one over there,” Dae-Ho said, motioning with his chin to the woman arguing with a server. “That is Moo Hyun a Production Assistant that thinks she’s a Producer. Because her father is one of the higher ups at the Production House, Moo Hyun thinks she holds some type of power-”
“She doesn’t,” Rain finished for him. “A onetime fan of Myo Mi-Sun, Moo Hyun now hates her because she stole Gang Moon from her, in her mind. She can keep him.”
Kita chuckled, to Lucien’s surprise. “You are getting the better end of that deal.”
“Without a doubt,” she agreed. “The overweight, balding man in the corner looking at me rather predatorily, is Cah Jee. His first wife left him after he cheated on her with his soon to be third ex-wife, his second ex-wife he cheated on with his first and future third ex-wife. His first and second ex-wives ended up hooking up, and his third ex-wife left him after he cheated on her with his future fourth ex-wife.”
They looked at her with wide eyes.
“It is all drama and politics, and not one I want a role in,” she reminded them. “Cah Jee is a casting agent, that’s where he finds his future ex-wives, one that I refuse to read for anymore.”
The small smile on Kita’s face fell and he glared at the man she spoke of.
“No killing tonight, Brother,” Lucien warned.
