AH, HAAA- AHH-!
UH, HUU.
UH...!
EEK-!
DEEPER... DEEPER... PUT IT ALL IN ME.
FILL ME UP,
COMPLETELY.
AH! UUH! U-UGH!
AHH, AHH! HMH!
AHH...!
UH!
YOU'RE ALL MINE.
THE CLIENT SUGGESTED THAT IT'D BE GREAT IF YOU COULD SHOW OFF THE WATCH ON THE RED CARPET.
EVEN JUST BRUSHING YOUR HAIR BACK LIGHTLY WOULD BE ENOUGH.
APPARENTLY, THIS WATCH WAS DESIGNED EXCLUSIVELY FOR YOU...
DO YOU LIKE IT?
IT'S NOT BAD.
I'VE WORKED AS AN ACTOR'S ASSISTANT BEFORE, BUT...
WHO ELSE COULD EMBODY THE WORD "BEAUTIFUL" AS PERFECTLY AS CHASE MILLER?
CHASE MILLER
THE ACTOR WHO SHOOK ALL OF NORTH AMERICA WHEN HE DEBUTED,
RECEIVING AN INSANE AMOUNT OF ATTENTION.
HE'S STEADILY GROWN HIS FAN BASE YEAR AFTER YEAR,
AND NOW EVEN HIS ACTING IS BEING RECOGNIZED.
THESE DAYS, HE'S AT THE TOP, ENJOYING THE PEAK OF HIS CAREER.
PEOPLE EVEN SAY THEY'D DO ANYTHING, ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING,
JUST TO SEE HIM IN PERSON ONCE IN THEIR LIFETIME.
OF COURSE, IF THEY KNEW HIS REAL PERSONALITY, THOSE WORDS WOULD DRY UP REALLY FAST...
WE'VE ARRIVED AT THE VENUE.
ALRIGHT, PLEASE BE CAREFUL. THERE'S A HUGE CROWD GATHERED AROUND.
AHHH!!
HEY, STEP BACK!
DON'T PUSH!
AT THE JEWELRY EVENT, A SUDDEN SURGE IN THE CROWD LED TO SEVERAL INJURIES.
ACTOR CHASE MILLER WAS IN ATTENDANCE, AND...
HONESTLY, ISN'T IT A BAD IDEA TO INVITE SOMEONE THAT FAMOUS TO AN EVENT LIKE THIS?
DO YOU KNOW HE DIDN'T EVEN SAY
A SINGLE WORD OF REGRET ABOUT THE COMMOTION HE CAUSED?
...IS THAT SO? I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT CELEBRITIES.
OH, I SEE.
HERE'S MY CARD. JUST CHARGE IT.
OH, YES! RIGHT AWAY!
WHY IS IT TAKING SO DAMN LONG TO PROCESS THIS PAYMENT?
DID YOU SEE THE GUY WHO JUST LEFT?
HUH?
HE'S DEFINITELY AN ALPHA, RIGHT?
...NO IDEA. DIDN'T CATCH ANY PHEROMONE SCENT.
LOOK AT HIM. HE'S WAY TOO HANDSOME NOT TO BE AN ALPHA.
AND THAT BODY.
REALLY? HIS BACK WAS IMPRESSIVE, I'LL GIVE YOU THAT.
HAA...
I'M NEVER COMING BACK TO THIS PLACE. PAYMENT TAKES FOREVER.
AND ALL THEY DO IS GOSSIP.
DO YOU KNOW HE DIDN'T EVEN SAY
A SINGLE WORD OF REGRET ABOUT THE COMMOTION HE CAUSED?
EVER SINCE THAT INCIDENT, I HAVE HEARD ABOUT CHASE MILLER MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY.
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO AVOID HIM IN THIS COUNTRY.
NO MATTER HOW MUCH I TRY, LIVING WHILE IGNORING HIS EXISTENCE
IS STRAIGHT-UP IMPOSSIBLE.
DADDY!
PETE!
YOU'RE BACK?
JOHN, THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR HELP TODAY.
NO PROBLEM, PETE'S SUCH A GOOD KID THAT BABYSITTING IS EASY.
YOU'RE ALWAYS A HUGE HELP.
YOUR EXAMS ARE COMING UP, RIGHT? LET ME KNOW IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT ANY DAY.
OF COURSE, I'LL TRY NOT TO MISS A SHIFT.
SEE YOU NEXT TIME, PETE!
BYE-BYE, JOHN!
ALRIGHT, LET'S GET DINNER READY.
NO BEANS!
PETE, BEANS AND POTATOES ARE FRIENDS.
DON'T YOU THINK THEY'D BE HAPPIER TOGETHER IN YOUR BELLY?
UGH...
BUT I STILL HATE BEANS!
OH, GREAT. LOOKS LIKE TONIGHT'S DINNER IS SHAPING UP TO BE ANOTHER BATTLEFIELD.
