JULIAN'S POV

"Why would you accept that? Have you forgotten that Fred is the male lead of the drama?" Abel seemed surprised. 

I let out a deep breath, rubbed my sore nose, and smiled, "I know. But I also have a good feeling about that drama," I lowered my eyes slightly. "I want to make it in this circle, too. Let the director know that my father will invest in the drama, and all they have to do is let me take the second male lead role," I added, having made up my mind. 

Convincing my father to support a drama for me was a very easy thing to do. He would gladly do it, too...

Abel shook his head, "You can't. You really can't accept that role. Have you forgotten? Fred is a scum. He would stop at nothing to suppress you. Taking that role is the same as delivering yourself to his doorstep. Don't do this, please," Abel pleaded. 

"In this circle, only I know who your parents are. The film crew will surely side with the popular Fred and ignore an unknown 3rd rate star like you. You really can't accept this role, Julian," Abel's expression showed great resistance as he tried to convince me. 

"If it's about getting roles. I can meet up with other agents and try my best to get resources from them. We will surely get another role for you. Don't worry about anything," He added, and with that, he started the car. 

I was silent for a while. I had no specific reason to accept that role, but somehow, my heart really wanted it. Maybe because I wanted Fred to know I was doing fine even after our breakup, or I just wasn't resigned to this new fate, but I really wanted that role. 

"I will call the director myself," I said stubbornly and brought out my phone to search for the director's line. 

Abel stopped the car and turned around to face me. "Can you handle it? Will you be able to?" He asked softly, his eyes filled with care and worry. 

Seeing that expression, I pursed my lips and nodded my head. "When I joined this circle, I only did it to get closer to Fred, so I had no passion for it. I pulled strings to help him grow while I continued having fun doing nothing, hoping that one day, when Fred was popular enough, I would quit this circle and reveal my identity to Fred. But things have changed. Now, I really want to act, I want to be popular in this circle. I will act, sing, and dance. I will show the world how talented I am and create a space for myself at the top. I will step on Fred and make him see who is lowly between him and me," I vowed. 

"So, Abel, don't stop me, please. I really want to do this,"

"Alright," Abel's voice was slightly hoarse. "Alright, I will support you," He patted my lap with a big smile on his face. 

Sitting right, he brought out his phone and soon dialed a number. "Hello, Mr. James, this is Abel, Actor Julian Everly's manager," He introduced himself to the other person on the phone. 

"We called to schedule a meeting with you concerning the second male lead role you wanted Julian to act in. When will you be available?"

"Tomorrow? Oh, there? Okay,'

"Yes, thank you," 

He ended the call and took a long breath. "He agreed to meet tomorrow to talk over dinner. He sent the address already," He told me, and I nodded. 

Having settled that, I finally relaxed and closed my eyes. It was time to start working for real...

"Take me to my parents' home. I don't feel very good," I told Abel. 

My temperature seemed to be a little high, and the pain in my body seemed to have increased. I feared I was about to have a fever, and at a time like that, it was better to rest on my mother's lap to recover. 

"Alright," Abel didn't argue with me and immediately turned the car to drive to my parents' house. 

"Julian, you're back. It's been so long, but you remember your mum again today," My mother hugged me as she lamented with a voice full of grievance. "You've grown so big now that you don't care about your mother anymore," She continued. 

Knowing that it would take hours for her to stop, I returned the hug and rested my slightly hot head on her shoulder so she would notice my condition. 

As expected, her lamentation stopped, and she quickly broke the hug. She looked at my face, her soft eyes showing concern, "What's wrong with you? Do you not feel good?" She asked, touching my forehead. 

I squeezed her hand gently and nodded, "I think so. Let's go in, Mum. I don't want to stand for too long," That was needed. 

Standing for too long made my butthole hurt more, and groaning would make my mother notice that something was wrong, which must absolutely be prevented.

I followed my mother into the house, and just when I was about to slip into my room, my eyes caught my grandmother, who was peeling oranges and watching a movie in the sitting room. 

I frowned slightly, I wasn't very close with my grandmother as she nagged a lot. "What's grandma doing here?" I whispered, making sure not to let her hear me. 

My mother smiled, her fingers gently pinched my sore waist, "You should say hi to your grandmother first. Can't she come around?" She whispered back, and my frown deepened. 

I shook my head, "Grandma doesn't leave her home that easily. She must be here for something. Quickly tell me, Mum. I have a bad premonition," I whispered back, urging my mother. 

My mother looked into my eyes and laughed. "Bad premonition? Silly child. Your grandmother is here to discuss your marriage with the Creeds. It's that time already, the marriage agreement should take effect," my mother explained.

Didn't you tell me then that it might be canceled, Why are we discussing it now?" I found it hard to comprehend what was going on. "I thought so, too, son. That was my initial thought until the first son of the Creeds, the new head of the family, sent a letter to us a week ago. He said he would like to get married to you in a month," My mother went on, and my mind went blank. What kind of joke is this?Marriage?With a stranger__"How, Mum? How do you want me to marry someone I don't even know? What if he bullies me after marriage?" I felt like crying. Getting married wasn't that much of a big deal, but how could I marry someone I hadn't even seen before? This person might even be uglyFor a face-con, having to be with someone ugly was the harshest punishment, and I would have to be with the man forever. My mother patted my head gently,

    JULIAN'S POV I was stunned. Staring at the man I hadn't expected to ever see in my life again, I had no idea what to feel. I stood by the door, my eyes fixed on him as the scene of what happened between us last night played in my head again. The cries, the moans, and even the moment he touched my__ butthole to apply medicine. Ugh!My cheeks turned red, and I wished I could just run away. But then, why was he here?"Mr Julian?" A voice beside me called, and only then was I able to compose myself. "What?" I asked, giving the waiter a questioning look. The waiter revealed a professional smile as he gestured for me to move forward, "You should have a seat, sir," He said. Wait, "Have a seat? Why? Didn't you tell me earlier that Mr Xavier is waiting for me? Why do I have to sit with someone else here?" I felt confused. Maybe the handsome stranger bribed the waiter to bring me after he saw me enter? Although I also wanted to have a talk with the stranger, to at least know his name

This wasn't right_ This wasn't me.I watched as the stunningly handsome man placed his card on the door and the ding that came after, indicating that the door was unlocked. I swallowed again, my hands a bit sweaty. "Ain't you coming in?" His dangerous yet cool voice rang in my ears as he stared at me with his pairs of deep dark eyes. He was so handsome that he made me feel jealous at heart. How could a man be so handsome? We are both men, but he has so many things that I dare not even dream about. Look at that broad chest, look at that pale and sharp face, look at that waist that made him look manly___ I lacked them all!Although I identified as a man, my beautiful features, flat belly with no ounce of abs, and tiny waist made me look a lot like all those fictional fairies, making it impossible for me to brag about being "manly" at all.

I searched the room with my eyes, wanting to see the perpetrator, but surprisingly, he was nowhere to be found. I sat down in bed, a frown settling on my face as I tried to endure the pain that came from my movement. Did he really leave? I knew it was only a one-night thing, but did he have to be so heartless? He just left the moment he woke up!I shook my head, feeling bad for those who might have fallen for such a heartless man, and right then, my eyes fell on the paper that was on the pillow beside me and I raised a brow. Picking up the paper, I was surprised to see very good handwritten words, which I immediately knew were from the handsome stranger, and a smile unknowingly formed on my face. "I already ordered breakfast for you; just notify the waiters when you wake up, and it will be delivered to the room. Also, don't forget
