The Number One Star in the Interstellar Era

Chapter 104 - CUTE SISTER

”AHM, Astrid, is it really okay to bring your, well, boyfriend here in the set?” Sienna said to the black-haired teenager sitting beside her. She did so as soon as he saw the young man with ice blue hair stood up and excused himself for a while.

They were at one of the restaurants nearest to their film crew set. She wasnʼt scared that they would be filmed or photographed because thereʼs a rule in any filming studio planet against paparazzies or reporters. Itʼs was made that way so that the possibility of any filming leaks wouldnʼt happen.

Sienna glanced at the back of the young man with ice-blue hair who was walking towards the direction of the restroom. When she invited Astrid, she didnʼt expect that this one would also come along with them. She had naturally noticed the otherʼs presence on the set. She thought that he was some kind of intern or something. She didnʼt expect that he was here with Astrid.

She knew that the teenager was a newcomer. He probably still had no idea how this whole industry worked. No matter how attractive or talented he was in acting, he could easily be destroyed if he was involved in any scandal this early in his career. As his senior, she felt like it was her responsibility to at least warn him about a few things in the industry. Especially if he wanted to continue this career path.

”You know, even though people are not allowed to discriminately take pictures of the things here in this planet, some people in the set with loose tongue can still talk about the things they see on the set,” she started again. ”Once the movie is released, I have no doubt that you would rise in popularity. Many people will start to pay attention to you. And many would want to know your information. It would be bad for your fledgling career if people spread the news that youʼve brought your boyfriend during filming.”

Astrid, who heard this explanation, blinked first. And then his eyes were filled with amusement. He could feel that the other was really sincere in saying these things to him. She was truly worried about him bringing his ʼboyfriendʼ in the set. He couldnʼt help but think that this older sister was kind of cute.

”Donʼt worry, Sister Sienna. Heʼs not my boyfriend. Heʼs my brother, a twin brother in fact,” he said, clearing the otherʼs misunderstanding.

In fact, none of her worries would happen. Because Director Trevane had already explained to the crew about Reasʼs presence. Besides, even if something like that would happen once the movie was released, it was easy to debunk it. After all, he and Reas were really brothers.

Sienna felt like she just heard an unbelievable joke. ”Youʼre… twins? Haha... even if Astrid was kidding, you should have made up something more believable.”

Even if theyʼre fraternal twins, surely the difference in appearance wouldnʼt be this big. Even normal siblings had at least one common trait between them. But with the case of the two, she just couldnʼt see it. Itʼs like the difference between night and day.

”Itʼs true, Sister Sienna, weʼre really twins,” Astrid said. ”We can buy a portable DNA kit if you want. The result will tell you that Iʼm telling the truth.”

Although he said that last one in a teasing tone, his face was filled with enough sincerity. He believed thatʼs enough to show that he was serious about what he said.

Of course, Sienna saw that. Her disbelief just simply turned to shock. How could there be twins with that much difference in appearance? But she also quickly accepted it. It not like he knew much about genes and stuff anyway.

More than that, she probably should change the topic to the reason why she invited Astrid to lunch.

She cleared her throat. ”Anyway, Astrid, do you already belong to an entertainment company?”

Astrid shook his head. He kind of already had an idea where this conversation would lead. Sure enough, Siennaʼs next words confirmed his guess.

”Then, how about signing as the same company as me?” she said, smiling brightly at Astrid. ”The entertainment company Iʼm signed in is called Polaris. Weʼre just a small company in comparison to the bigwigs like Kaleido or Sonare. We might not have that many artists but you can be sure that you will be taken care of. The company gives a lot of benefits to its artists. Of course, thatʼs under the condition that you would also give the equal amount of effort. If you do that, then Polaris would never do anything sorry for you. So, what do you say? Itʼs a pretty good deal, right?”

Astrid was a bit surprised hearing Sienna endorsed the company sheʼs signed in. And she was also doing it so actively. Of course, he had heard of Polaris. In fact, itʼs one of the entertainment companies he was considering even before the other mentioned it to him.

He had long heard of Polaris. It was indeed just a small entertainment company. But despite that, it was still pretty well-known. The majority of their artists were on the top 100 of the Star List. Which was pretty damn rare for a small company. They also didnʼt have any history of taking advantage of their artists. They even let their artists to set up their own studio as long as they had enough ability and popularity to back it up.

That last one was very attractive to Astrid. Because he also wanted to set up his own studio someday. But he also knew that he couldnʼt trust anything he read or saw online. For all he knew, there might be shadows lurking behind such a clean fa?ade.

”Thank you for the offer, Sister Sienna,” he said first. ”But is Sister allowed to make that offer?” he asked, acting like he was worried that the other was offering her that without the permission of Polarisʼ president.

Which actually made sense in a way. After all, this was the first time they met. Itʼs impossible that someone from Polaris had already asked her to make this offer to him.

Sienna only laughed. ”Of course, itʼs okay. Once my agent sees you, she will surely make the same offer. I only advanced the process.”

Astrid wondered how the other ended up with such a conclusion. But he also couldnʼt help but chuckle in amusement. This sister was really kind of cute.
