SNOW looked around the island he'd be staying on for the next few days. It was a small island that looked exactly like a coastal town. If he didn't know that they were on a filming studio planet, he might have really thought that way.
"Let's go, Snow," his manager, David, called to him.
He nodded, and they got into the land vehicle that would bring them to the hotel.
Today would be Snow's first filming for this movie. Although his role was not that big, he was determined to make the best out of it. He would play this role to the best of his ability. If he did, he believed that good opportunities would come his way after this movie was released.
But first, he had to make sure that he wouldn't be 'devoured' by Charlotte Anderson once the two of them began acting together.
Although both of them were newcomers to this industry, he's not embarrassed to admit that the other was much better than him in terms of acting. It's not just because the other had more experience, he just instantly felt it when they exchanged lines during the script reading.
If he didn't give his best during their scene together, he would be led along by her. The result would probably be acceptable. But only solely because of Charlotte. The general public would probably not be able to notice that, but anyone with a good eye would be able to see that the scene was only good because Charlotte's acting was great.
Snow hoped that it would not come to that. That's why he had been spending more time practicing the past two weeks. After school, he would go to Polaris to receive lessons. Then once he returned home, he would do individual practice. He just hoped that his hard work was enough.
Arriving at the hotel, just as they entered the building, two familiar figures walked out of the elevator exactly at the same time. One was a beautiful young man with black hair and black eyes, and the other was a young woman with a listless expression, as if she hadn't fully woken up yet.
When Snow saw them, the two also happened to glance in his direction.
Astrid smiled brightly when he saw him and waved. "Snow!"
A small smile also appeared on Snow's lips. He raised his hand and also waved.
He moved forward with his manager, and the other two also walked in their direction. The four of them met mid-way.
It's not that Krysta was annoying. Ellis probably just couldn't handle the blatant admiration the other had for her. And when he said 'blatant', it's to the point that she looked like she would want to stick to Ellis' side 24/7 if she's not working as Charlotte's manager.
Unfortunately for her, Ellis didn't share the same feelings.
For everyone's sake, hopefully it wouldn't escalate further.
David nodded, seemingly telling himself, 'as expected, there's no way Miss Ellis would make a rookie mistake like that'.
Astrid truly wanted to correct his misunderstanding. Even if he and Charlotte ended up having breakfast alone, the possibility of a controversy arising because of that was very low. And even if, on the off-chance, a controversy did arise, it could easily be proven wrong. After all, it's not true.
Besides, as much as he hated to admit it, a relationship rumor between him and Charlotte would actually be good publicity. Although a certain white wolf would definitely make a fuss about it.
As David walked to the elevator, the three of them walked in the direction of the cafeteria.
Arriving there, Astrid quickly looked for Ellis. He easily spotted the other and walked to the table where she was. Snow and Charlotte followed along.
Astrid purposely sat beside Ellis. That way, Snow and Charlotte could sit beside each other. Maybe sitting close to each other would close the distance between them.
"Have you already ordered, Sister Ellis?" he asked.
Ellis was about to say no when a message notification sounded on her Terminal. When she saw that it was a message from Grant - the president of Polaris, she quickly opened it.
Reading the content of the message, her eyes widened in surprise. She raised her head and looked at Astrid.
"Astrid, you— you've been shortlisted for the Rookie of the Year Award at the Silver Moon Awards."
