Harry let out a quiet chuckle at how uneasy Rhiannon looked around him. Still, she was not trapped there. If she truly felt uncomfortable, she could leave whenever she wanted.But Harry had only picked her up so they could grab food together. Beyond that, he already knew he needed to get back into the gym regularly.There was too much testosterone running through his system without any proper outlet for it. He understood he could not simply sleep with every woman who showed interest in him because doing that would slowly chip away at his value.The moment women realized he was easily accessible, his image would lose its appeal. He would become no different from those famous A list celebrities constantly lurking in every woman’s direct messages, desperate for attention.Harry believed reputation was everything.Once a reputation was destroyed, no amount of money or status could fully repair it. Because of that, he refused to take unnecessary risks when it came to how people perceived h

The world had always been brutal.It crushed weak people without mercy, and when it failed to destroy them outright, it pushed them toward destroying themselves instead.Harry nearly became another casualty of that reality once upon a time.Which made him wonder about something strange.Was this same cruel universe also the thing that granted him his powers in the first place?It was not a question he spent much time asking himself because the power had simply appeared in his life unexpectedly. It landed in his hands, and Harry claimed it as his own without hesitation.Still, there were moments when he questioned where it truly came from.What exactly was the origin of something capable of bending reality itself?The system could turn impossible things into reality like they were nothing.If such a power truly existed, then it suggested something terrifying.There had to be something greater out there. Something higher.Harry pushed those thoughts aside while helping Clara through her

Alicia spoke to Osaka without knowing who he was, but this was to be expected, considering he was a man who worked from the shadows. But the questions he asked her seemed a little too direct; he knew things he shouldn't about the movie. But the conversation was short-lived to her relief, and her eyes immediately scanned around the room to find Alexander, but to no avail. She kissed her teeth in irritation, but it was out of control as Matteo rejoined her. "Was that Alexander?" Matteo asked, to which Alicia nodded. She suddenly wasn't interested in the others around her because she knew this man didn't have movies he was well known for, but the few series he did take his popularity through the roof. "I lost him…" Alicia admitted defeat, but she wasn't given time to mourn because someone joined her right away. He might not be A-list, but the attention he commanded wasn't something to be overlooked. "Alicia, is it?" The voice, a soft, feminine voice, called out, prompting Alicia t

The party continued in full swing, and online attention surrounding it exploded rapidly. It was not accidental either. The public relations and marketing teams had done an incredible job building anticipation beforehand. At this point, everyone’s attention was locked onto the event. Pictures and clips constantly flooded social media, especially those featuring Alexander alongside several other major guests. Every new image only increased excitement around the project. The publicity machine was working perfectly. There was practically no chance that anyone with a phone and internet access would ignore the buzz surrounding the movie. Curiosity alone would force people to look into it. Among the many people following the event online was Melissa. The moment she caught glimpses of Alicia appearing in photos and videos, her attention immediately shifted toward searching for Harry subconsciously. She wanted to know whether Harry had attended the event too. But then she noticed Alici

Several hours before the party officially started, a number of important events unfolded elsewhere. Harry stayed behind to keep an eye on Clara, though he was careful not to cross any inappropriate lines with her. Because of that, he decided to call Rhiannon and ask her to come over instead. The urgency in Harry’s voice immediately caught Rhiannon’s attention. She did not hesitate for even a second. Whatever she had been doing beforehand no longer mattered because she dropped everything and rushed over to him. Harry noticed that reaction immediately. It did not escape his attention how quickly she responded to him. Of course, before Rhiannon could even get access to the gym facilities, she had to register for a membership first. The moment she entered the building, people stared. Her appearance naturally drew attention because the tattoos covering parts of her body gave her an intimidating aura. She looked dangerous without even trying. Still, she pushed through every barrie
