Hollywood Zenith

" How is she?" Samuel asked. Penny was surprised by his question, the atmosphere, which was warm just a moment ago, became awkward once more.

" She is good. Lately, she is only focused on her singing classes so much so that her grades have began to fall."

" Hmm, as you know the movie which I am staring is complete. It is set to premier somewhere around November. I really want three of you to come to it's premier."

" I don't think that is good idea. Beside, I can see you are not lacking anything in support department."

" I know still-"

" It is up to you. You could ask her yourself if you want but I think you already know the answer."

" Right, It will also premier in London. At least you could go there."

" I will deliver your message rest is up to her."

" No, I want your word that you will be there. There is someone I like her to meet." Samuel said seriously. Penny didn't know what to say, it was not impossible to ask, but she was hesitant.

" I know you are apprehensive about it but I would ask Uncle Oscar to be there. Just tell her that it was his idea. As far as I know, there is no bad blood between them."

Not mentioning Samuel's name could work, but she didn't know what more he had planned, but soon Samuel explained.

" I want Iblis and her to make up. I heard she will be visiting during the holidays; it is a perfect opportunity. I will also be away in the States, so you have nothing to worry about." Hearing this, Penny was tempted.

Although her daughter was doing much better, she knew Adele missed her friend. For the few months they were practically inseparable, losing her suddenly was a massive blow to her.

" There will also be someone special present. It will be good for her career if both of them made a good impression on her."

" What are you talking about?" Penny needed clarification.

" Don't worry about it now. Just promise me."

Penny accepted. She knew that Samuel would not do anything to harm her daughter, regardless of his history. Those were tough times that required drastic measures.

" With that out of the way. I wanted to ask something else."

" Heh, there is more?"

" It is a completely different topic. What's the deal with that kid Cole?" He asked.

" Oh, Cole, He lives nearby. Have you heard about Fremen Orphanage south of here? It is quite famous."

Samuel shook his head. He only had a little time to explore the city.

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom " Well, It was famous for good reasons before but lately something strange has been going around."

" Strange?"

" Yeah, Kids who were well taken care of before has been wandering the streets. Cole is one of them. I also heard that they are not given proper meal."

" and proper bath." They all noticed how unkempt Cole was; his clothes were practically rags!please visit

" Right, we do what we can. This restaurant provide the leftovers for him and few other kids. Cole who is usually quiet is favored by both Hannah and her family." Penny explained.

" Is there any reason for this change? The situation could not change so drastically.

" I also thought about it. We also went to their office but they refused to give us any answer that's why I said it was strange. On the surface everything looks fine."

Samuel asked a few more questions, but Penny needed to learn more. He decided to investigate on his own, he knew that it was wrong to meddle in other people's business, but he could not just sit back and watch.

It also hit close to home for him as a former member of the Orphanage. He still had fond memories of that time. After their little conversation, he reminded Penny again about their agreement and went inside to finish his meal.

He thought about running away, but that would only delay the problem. Carol would also be madder when they meet the next time.

He also asked Cole some questions during the meal, but Cole was oblivious to them. He was just a kid who suddenly found himself with the short end of the stick.

" Don't worry. Now that big brother is here everything will be fine." He assured the little kid. Hearing his gentle voice gave the little kid some hope for the future.

" Yes, Bwig B-brother" Maybe he was not accustomed to speaking regularly; he messed up. Everyone laughed while seeing his flustered expression. Samuel had to comfort him before he started to talk again.

Before parting ways, Samuel gave him a little toy to Cole. He had been eyeing Hannah's new collection for a while now. Samuel promised to provide him with an even bigger one the next time they met. Hearing his promise, Cole had a subtle excited expression; it was barely noticeable, but Samuel caught it.

" It is not a bad feeling." He ruffled his hair in response.

While returning, Samuel put his team to work.

" Steve find out whatever you can about this Fremen Orphanage."

" As you wish."

" Jane, please act as point on this one. You are the best suited for it." Samuel asked Jane.

" Boss-" Steve wanted to object.

" Can't you understand what boss said? I will be the leader now!" Jane instantly fired up. It was her time to shine.

" I know you are dissatisfied but you are a team. I will never value one member over another for me five of you are the same." Samuel said.

Jane, who got a rare chance to abuse her power over Steve, began formulating a plan. Steve could only accept the arrangement; he also knew what Jane was capable of. Samuel was not wrong.

On the other hand, other members, like Ze, who was driving, felt grateful for Samuel's consideration. They knew it was hard to show their capabilities when faced with someone like Steve and Chin, who specialized in combat. They shined the most in any situation because of their flashy moves.

Drac especially felt neglected. His boss already had enough power to procure most of the things in the world; he hardly had any work, which made him pay for nothing.

Samuel also thought that he needed to give more attention to them, and with some plan, he could put them to good use.

" Jane, I know you are excited but I want the report within two days. Of course, you can use any asset you want but I want it done quick. Can you do it?" Jane, who was in dreamland, snapped back to reality.

" Yes Boss!" She said firmly. It was a piece of cake for her so she thought but she would find out later that it was not as simple as she expected.
