Chapter 105 - DIAMOND



"SISTER Sienna, thank you for your high regard of me," Astrid said gently.  "But I don\'t really want to be presumptuous and think that I\'m someone a company like Polaris would want."

Sienna\'s two assistants who were sitting on the other table and were listening to the two\'s conversation glanced at each other.  They were actually quite worried when Sienna suddenly invited Astrid to signed to Polaris. 

It should be known that the actors and actresses in Polaris were all known for their acting skills.  The president and founder of Polaris really only had one requirement in signing artists to the company – they had to have talent.  He didn\'t care if one was beautiful or handsome, what he cared about was a person\'s talent. 

What\'s more the president hated hyping things up.  For example, making fake stories or rumors just to make the artists in his company popular.  He also hated backroom deals.  He never allowed his artists to \'sell\' themselves in exchange for a movie or a show.  It\'s one of the major rules in Polaris.  Once an artist was found to break that, they would immediately release from their contract.

It\'s the reason why the president was given the nickname, \'old-fashioned grouch\'.  But despite the strictness, many up-and-coming artists in the Empire still wanted to be part of Polaris.  In that regard, they wouldn\'t lose to big companies like Kaleido and Sonare.

It\'s just that, Polaris was very picky in comparison to the two who treated artists like mass-produced products.  For Polaris, they didn\'t need that many, all they need was the diamond among the shiny fake ones. 

Thus, even with a few artists under their name, their reputation was still one of the best in the industry.  Just simply being a part of such company could give one the reputation of being \'good\' at acting.

They were worried that Astrid would take advantage of Sienna\'s kindness and just shamelessly asked the other to take him to Polaris\' company building.  They could see that their artist really liked this teenager.  With Sienna\'s good temper, she would definitely not refuse him. 

That\'s why they were relieved and also a bit surprised when they heard what Astrid said.  They didn\'t expect that he would actually refuse Sienna\'s symbolic offer.  But they were truly glad that he did. 

Yes, he was indeed quite good compared to other newcomers his age.  But one must know that Polaris usually scout the top graduates of prestigious performing arts colleges.  Really, how could this barely adult teenager be compared to those top graduates.

If Sienna brought Astrid to the company, the one who would be scolded was her.  As assistants, how could they let their artist be scolded?  It\'s a good thing that this teenager actually wasn\'t greedy or shameless. 

Their impression of Astrid became even better.  At least now, they knew that this teenager wouldn\'t just take advantage of their artist\'s kind heart.

Sienna pouted when she heard Astrid\'s response.  "What being presumptuous?  You\'re certainly not!  I\'ll tell my agent to watch our filming tomorrow.  She will surely have the same opinion as me."

Astrid only smiled helplessly.  "It\'s okay, Sister Sienna.  I\'m not really in a rush.  I\'d probably be busy in school and stuff anyway."

Of course, he\'s just saying that to appear humble.  No one liked people who openly showed their greed.  Not that he was.  Well, maybe in some aspects of his life.  One example was his career.

He was a very ambitious person.  If there\'s a good opportunity that could help him in his career, he wouldn\'t hesitate to take it.  Of course, that didn\'t include him being taken advantaged of – sexually or otherwise.

Sienna wanted to say more, but the young man – who he now knew as Astrid\'s twin brother – returned and sat opposite them.  Although the other was way younger, she couldn\'t help but feel a bit scared.  Well, not really scared.  Probably more of apprehensive. 

Maybe because she could feel that the other had a higher level of physique and mental strength.  She\'s a bit sensitive that way.

And so, the three just continued to eat peacefully.

It didn\'t take long before they finished their lunch. 

"Thank you, Sister Sienna for treating us to lunch," Astrid said.

"Thank you," Reas also followed.

Sienna waved her hand.  "It\'s nothing.  It\'s just right for me to pay.  I\'m older and a working adult after all."

They walked out of the restaurant and got on the land vehicle that brought them there.

"Oh, before I forgot, since you\'d probably be filming your scene tomorrow with the person who plays the villain in the movie, I think I should warn you a little about him.  He\'s kind of flirty, so, he might flirt with you and stuff.  No, he will definitely do that.  But it\'s all harmless.  So, I hope you wouldn\'t be offended or affected by it."

Reas frowned immediately when he heard that.  He was about to grumble and probably even say something now so respectful when he felt Astrid suddenly grasping his hand.  He looked at his brother.  Astrid was still looking at the actress, as if listening attentively to what she\'s saying.  But Reas could feel that his brother was silently telling him not to say anything.  Astrid probably knew how he would react just by hearing such a thing.

Even though he didn\'t want to, he knowingly shut up.

Astrid was relieved when he didn\'t hear Reas complaining.  Once again, he\'s thankful for their natural tacit understanding. 

"Is Sister Sienna friends with him?" he thought of asking.

After all, she surely wouldn\'t tell him that this \'flirty\' person didn\'t really mean him any harm if the two weren\'t friends.

"In a way," Sienna said, laughing awkwardly.  "He\'s actually a fellow artist under Polaris.  He just debuted five years ago.  He\'s the closest in age to you.  If you just ignore his affectionate attitude, I\'m sure you\'ll get along well.  But if he ended up pestering you too much, just tell this sister.  I will handle him for you."

Astrid chuckled when he heard the \'affectionate attitude\' description.  "Okay.  Thank you, Sister Sienna."
