Chapter 607: FAN CLUB PRESIDENT, SAMUEL LEWIS

Any newcomer to the fandom would have likely come across at least one of his posts. It was safe to say that entering the fandom without knowing about ‘White Wolf’ was nearly impossible.

So, imagine his surprise when he found out that ‘White Wolf’ was actually the general? When he first heard the general admit that he was ‘White Wolf’, he was confused. He even wondered if he was just having a hallucination. But when a few minutes had passed, and the general was still talking about Aster, he had to admit that everything that was happening at that moment was real.

He actually almost passed from the shock. The only thing that prevented him from doing so was his fear of the general. He couldn’t even remember much about what happened after that.

From being just a simple housekeeper, to suddenly discovering the general’s secret, and now, working for the other to maintain Aster’s fandom.

He let out a long sigh. Well, it would probably be fine as long as he did his job properly. Which was not that hard, considering that he was really a fan of Aster. He felt like what harder here was keeping the secret that the general was actually Aster’s fanboy.

In fact, he wondered if the general actually liked Aster in a romantic manner. Because a normal fan wouldn’t go to the lengths, the general had gone just for the star they admired. What else was this if not love? Or at least, the general’s own version of it.

Wouldn’t Aster be scared of the general? After all, most people in the Empire were. Samuel had felt the same way. But after working for the general for three years, he now knew that the general wasn’t as bad as people made him out to be. He’s still scary though.

But if he was right, and the general had really fallen in love with Aster, maybe it wouldn’t be so bad. Perhaps Aster could be a good influence on him, helping him mellow out a bit. However, that would only be possible if Aster didn’t run away at the first sight of the general.

Then suddenly, an idea flashed through Samuel’s mind. What if he wrote a fanfiction about the two?

Aside from doing video edits of stars he’s a fan of, he’s also secretly an AU writer. He often wrote about characters in TV shows or movies that he liked and felt that would be good as a couple. But he had never tried writing about real life people.

Should he create one? And then make it popular? That way, if the general really pursued Aster, the latter wouldn’t be so surprised. The same would apply to the public. It would be a way to desensitize people to the possibility of the general being with Aster.

As Samuel was thinking that, he received a notification from his Terminal. He opened it and almost jumped when he saw that Aster actually reposted one of his fan edits and congratulated him for being the president of his fan club.

Although he was very happy being noticed by a celebrity he really liked, he also felt a tad guilty. Mostly because he knew he didn’t get the position of president because of his own efforts. Find hidden gems at m-vl-em-pyr

He clenched his fists, his heart filling with determination. Since he had obtained this position unfairly, he resolved to become the best fan club president he could be.

As they neared the Polaris building, Ellis told Astrid that she had received a message saying that Jimmy McCann was already there. Astrid nodded. There were still 30 minutes until the meeting time. The new director arriving this early probably meant that he must want this meeting to work.

That’s a good sign. Because he also wanted the same. He really liked the script. He felt like it would really test his acting skills. If they reached an agreement today, and they could make this film, it would really help elevate his career. Because it would show the public how much range he had as an actor.

After a few minutes, they finally arrived at Polaris. As Astrid got off the car, his Terminal suddenly rang. It was the notification sound of an incoming video call. He opened his Terminal and saw that it was a call from Nicol.

Knowing his Terminal setting was in private, he wasn’t worried about answering the call. No one except him could see or hear the person he was talking to, anyway.

“Brother Aster!” Nicol greeted when Astrid clicked the accept button.

“Hi, Nikki,” he smiled and greeted back.

“Brother Aster, you’re done with school for today, right? Can you eat dinner with us? Please? Please? Please?”

Astrid could only blink at the unexpected invitation. Because he didn’t immediately answer, Nicol showed an aggrieved expression, probably thinking that he planned to decline the invitation.

“Is Brother Aster busy? I… I really just want to spend time with Brother Aster. I just felt so sad after watching what happened to Luan last night and I want to talk to Brother Aster about it.” Nicol stopped, and then looked down, as if he was trying to stop himself from crying. “But if you’re busy, it’s fine. We can just have dinner another day.”

How could Astrid reject the kid after seeing that? “I have a meeting today. But if it ends early, I will message you, so we can have dinner together.”

Nicol lifted his head, his expression turning bright. “Okay! I’ll be waiting for you, Brother!”

After ending the call, Astrid had a sudden thought. If it’s dinner, the other Grimaldis would probably be there, right? Including the duke. He still had very complicated feelings for the other. But anyway, if all of them would be there, maybe he should start with them. You know, telling them about his relationship with Wulfric.
