[They are having dinner, it looks like they will finish soon] Avian replied immediately. Marcel knew immediately that he could not make it in time. Liam would always feel sleepy after having his dinner so he can"t ask Damien to make the child wait for him while he doesn"t know when he will finish.

After drinking, eating and chatting for another hour, the director lightly tapped the gla.s.s he was using with a spoon to call for everyone"s attention.

"Everyone has worked hard over the past two days. Congratulations Sherry for your single," the director said and everyone cheered happily for Sherry whose face flushed with shyness.

"Now, I just received news that they will release the video for the ch.o.r.eography tomorrow at noon. Let"s give it as much publicity as possible, okay?" the director announced before toasting everyone. When he had sat down again, Marcel scooted closer to him once again to ask him something that he was very curious about.

"Director," Marcel called, and the middle-aged man turned his head to look at him.

"I have a question," Marcel said in a low voice.

"What is it?" the director asked, curious about what he wanted to ask him.

"Well, how did you end up shooting a music video? I heard you were a very popular director," Marcel asked, curiosity s.h.i.+ning in his eyes.

"I"m shooting the music video because I"m a popular director," the director answered with a chuckle.

"What do you mean?" Marcel asked, still confused.

"Your CEO promised that he will cameo in one of my future movies if I did. If he said he would be part of the main cast, then I would have just offered to film music videos for all the current groups in his company for a year." the director answered.

"If your CEO appears on a film, even for a small role, it is bound to be successful. It"s because he rarely acts these days so people miss seeing him on-screen" the director said, and Marcel nodded in understanding.

It looked like Damien was very skilled when it came to playing with his fans" hearts. He must show just enough of himself so they don"t forget his existence and also to keep them curious about what he is doing.

"I see," Marcel said as he nodded thoughtfully.

"No you don"t, I"ll still have to pay him and he is quite expensive, I can"t ask him to act in something low budget so I"ll have to be cautious when sending him a script for an appropriate role," the director continued.

Marcel listened to the director talk for a while and since his tongue had loosened from the alcohol, it was his chance on getting more information.

"Why aren"t you drinking? Go on and have some," the director said and as he refilled Marcel"s gla.s.s with liquor. Marcel used to have a good alcohol tolerance but he had never drunk alcohol with his current body so he was worried about how fast he was going to get drunk.

"I"ve already had some," Marcel said trying to brush off the whole situation but the director didn"t let him and insisted that he have some more. Marcel looked at Julia and saw that she wasn"t even looking in his direction.

He sighed in defeat before he took the gla.s.s and downed the drink in one go. He stuck out his tongue and furrowed his eyebrows from the strong taste of alcohol as he felt it warm his stomach.

"What did you give me?" Marcel asked.

"It"s vodka, haven"t you drunk before?" the director asked as he laughed at his reaction.

"No, I just turned eighteen this week," Marcel said and leaned on the back of his chair. He could already feel the effects of the alcohol as his limbs felt heavier.

"Argh, Mr. Director-," Marcel started. He speech slowed as he was doing his best to collect his thoughts.

"It"s Allan," the director said with his eyes filled with amus.e.m.e.nt.

"You don"t look like an Allan. Well, Allan, I think I should go pick up my younger brother now. If I stay here any longer, I"ll probably… blackout," Marcel said as he used his hand to support his chin.

"Mmh, you can go. You should have told me it was your first time drinking," Allan said as he laughed at how Marcel was behaving. They say people"s true faces get exposed when they are drunk. He wanted to see what Marcel was like once he was drunk, he just hadn"t expected it to happen so fast.

"You did it on purpose didn"t you?" Marcel asked and pointed his index finger at the director. Allan didn"t answer him and instead just continued drinking his alcohol.

Marcel chose to ignore him and his eyes roved the crowd to look for Julia so she could take him back home. As he was looking, his eyes met Kaira"s who had been looking at him curiously. Marcel tilted his head to one side and lazily smiled at her direction.

"Hey, are you flirting with girls now? Come on, let"s go," Julia said from behind him.

"Give me a minute," Marcel said and pulled out his phone and texted Damien to send him his address so he could pick Liam up. After five minutes he received a reply and gave his phone to Julia.

"We have to stop there before we go home, I have to go take my baby… brother," Marcel said as he slowly blinked at Julia.

"How could you make him drink so much?" Julia scolded Allan who had called her to come and get him.

"I didn"t give him a lot, he is a beginner, I didn"t know that," Allan defended. He was very familiar with Julia.

"How much drinking experience did you expect him to have? He is still a kid!" Julia said and promptly ignored Allan who was trying to make excuses.

"Can we go now?" Marcel asked as he hugged her arm.

"Yes, come one," Julia said and slowly walked out with him so he wouldn"t trip over his own feet.

Avian watched all this happen in frustration as he could detox Marcel but he was still too weak to do something like that.
