Episode 637 leon (2)

After working out, Jane talked to her friends in the shower room.

Emma Mills and Jennifer Kinema said in surprise.

“If the men come, please tell them you’re coming.”

“that’s right. If I had known it would be like this, I would have decorated it a bit. “I just came because I heard I was going to exercise.”

Jane shook her head.

“I had no idea either.”

I never thought he would suddenly appear here!

I was so happy, perhaps because it was an unexpected meeting.

“Are you two friends?”

“I’m close with Miru, and I saw Seonwoo once at the Ice Storm party.”

Emma Mills and Jennifer Kinema expressed great interest in Kang Sun-woo.

“You are the CEO of SW Games. “Isn’t that a really big gaming company?”

“that’s right. “You took over Ice Storm.”

SW Games is great in itself, but it is more famous for acquiring Ice Storm.

Through a series of events, Kang Seon-woo’s name became well known not only to developers and gamers, but also to the public.

“Are you saying you’re a genius developer who makes every game you make a huge hit?”

“It’s been on the news a lot this time. Is it UDT? “Didn’t you fight there?”

As he was a very successful man in society, I naturally became interested in him.

There is no harm in becoming friends even if you are not of the opposite sex.

“The person who came with me works at Continue Capital?”

“So are you two close friends?”

Jane told me about their relationship.

“They say we’ve been friends for a long time since we were kids.”

Miru Han is not just an employee, but a co-CEO of Continue Capital.

But Jane didn’t tell her friends.

‘It seems like he doesn’t want to be known either.’

If he liked the attention, he would have published reports and given media interviews under his own name rather than David Lockhart’s.

When I first met her, I thought she was an employee, but I was surprised to learn later that she was a co-CEO.

I wasn’t very interested until then, but as time went by, I became more and more curious.

‘What on earth is this man doing?’

Most of the men around her are anxious about not being noticed.

Moreover, everyone was very pretentious and extravagant.

My previous lover was like that too. She doesn’t put in any effort and always boasts that she will succeed.

But Hanmiru was the complete opposite.

There was no pretense at all.

Yet, every time he made an investment, he surprised the world and made a huge amount of money.

Every time a story about Continue Capital comes up in the news, Han Mi-ru’s face automatically comes to mind.

Jane thought to herself.

‘A man who works hard at his job is cool.’

After dinner, we took a quick tour of the house under Corey’s guidance.

The spacious mansion has everything you need for living. I feel like if I live in a house like this, I will never have to go outside.

We sat around and drank coffee.

Jane’s friends showed great interest in Sunwoo.

“I love that game so much.”

“I’m a developer… … “It’s so cool.”

“me too. “Then you’ll be good at games, right?”

“Let’s play a game together!”

Since game and film companies are concentrated in LA, game developers often date actresses.

Even so, I never thought Kang Seon-woo would receive this much attention from women!

Well, there are a lot of actors in LA, but star developers and CEOs of game companies are rare.

Jane saw my expression and asked.

“What’s wrong?”

“no. “I just didn’t feel well for a moment.”

“are you okay?”

“yes. what.”

It is normal for true friends to feel sick to their stomachs when they see the other person doing well.

“Now that I think about it, you didn’t come with that reporter this time.”

“ah! “Trish?”

“yes.”

“You seem very busy these days. “I’m also currently writing a biography of Allen Eberhart.”

She was surprised by my words.

“really?”

“yes. Allen Eberhart himself asked for it.”

“Incredible. “I heard she also co-wrote the movie script this time.”

“yes.”

I had no idea Trish was so talented at writing.

Jane and her friends got up because they had work to do.

She said regretfully.

“See you later at the birthday party.”

“is it so.”

After the women left, Seonwoo also got up.

“I’ll just go now too.”

“Where?”

“I have to go back to Korea.”

“Go already?”

“What already? When I came here, I didn’t know I would stay this long. “I have to go back to work quickly.”

Well, I was away from the company for a while.

No matter how much you work remotely, there are limits.

“bye. Let’s call later.”

“huh.”

Corey shook hands with Sunwoo.

“See you again.” “Come hang out anytime.”

“yes. Thank you for deciding to appear.”

“what. “Let’s make the best drama together.”

Sunwoo got in the car and headed straight to the airport, leaving Corey and I alone.

“And what about your family?”

“My wife and children are in England now. “I decided to see it this weekend.”

“okay.”

Corey opened the refrigerator and took out a beer.

“It’s a little early, but would you like to have a drink?”

“Good.”

We sat on the sunbeds in front of the pool and drank beer. As I was doing this, I felt like I was at a resort.

“Are you close with Leon Laclair?”

Corey thought for a moment and then spoke.

“If you’re friendly, you’re friendly.”

It’s a subtle answer.

“We’ve never filmed a movie together, right?”

“Not yet.”

The difference in the acting styles of the two also plays a role in this.

Corey Duncan mainly films family-oriented or highly entertaining action films, while Leon Laclair mainly films heavy, serious films with artistic value.

Corey smiled slightly.

“Honestly, when I first came to Hollywood after quitting professional wrestling, it was really difficult. I got a lot of ridicule, asking what kind of acting a professional wrestler does. In fact, I wasn’t able to act that well back then.”

Corey Duncan is now a top star that everyone recognizes, but in the beginning, he was criticized for being a muscular person and not good at acting.

Because my acting spectrum was narrow, I always took on similar roles.

It took constant effort to get to where I am now.

“Shortly after my debut, one after another the movies I appeared in flopped, and there were times when I received all kinds of harsh criticism from critics and the public. She seriously considered quitting acting and returning to the ring. It was then that she met Leon LaClaire by chance. “I thought he would be arrogant because he was a top star, but he wasn’t like that at all.”

This is the common opinion of people who have met him.

It is said that he is always kind and friendly to not only actors and directors, but also junior staff members.

Maybe that’s why love scandals break out once in a while, but there hasn’t been a single controversy about his personality for decades.

“I thought he was going to laugh at my acting, but he told me he was enjoying the movie. He encouraged me never to give up because he thought I would definitely succeed. Thanks to you, I was able to gain strength.”

After that, the movies starring Corey Duncan became huge successes, and he has now become a star on par with Leon Laclair.

“If it weren’t for his words then, I might have given up. So, you can also say that he is a benefactor to me. Even now, I am always grateful.”

“So something like that happened.”

This is a story that hasn’t even been mentioned in the media.

I never thought there was such a connection between the two.

Corey hesitated for a moment and then cautiously opened his mouth.

“So, actually, there’s one thing I’d like to discuss.”

“What is it?”

His expression looked slightly serious.

Are you trying to say something important?

Corey asked me.

“Do you know anything about Leon Laclair?”

I nodded.

“I know you’re a famous movie star.”

“and?”

“You like blonde models under the age of 25 and are interested in environmental activism?”

“Right.”

This is a story that not only me but everyone around the world knows.

Corey took a sip of beer and said:

“Leon is friendly with many people, but only a few are really close. What can I say? “He has a certain line?”

“ah! “I think I know what your style is.”

Should I say that I am the type of person who is friendly with everyone, but doesn’t become deeply friendly with anyone?

I understand why.

Leon Laclair has been a top star since he was a teenager.

There must have been more than one person who had approached him since childhood, and among them there must have been many who tried to take advantage of his fame.

I guess I have no choice but to be cautious about human relationships.

“But it seems like there’s a friend I’ve become very close with since last year. “They say they almost stick together these days.”

“is it so?”

“I met him once too, and I felt something…” … .”

“How is it?”

“It’s hard to explain in words, but it’s okay anyway.”

Perhaps because he has been involved in martial arts for a long time, Corey has a good sense of touch, almost like an animal.

There must be a good reason for saying this.

“That’s why I want you to take a look and decide.”

I was taken aback by those words.

“yes?”

Corey said as if it were obvious.

“You’re good at looking at people.”

“Me?”

It wouldn’t be unreasonable to have this misunderstanding.

“Just meet him once. “I will definitely come to the birthday party today.”

Hearing this makes me a little curious.

“What are you doing?”

“I think it would be better to meet in person and judge that rather than talking about it. “You might have some unnecessary prejudice because of me.”

I nodded.

“All right.”

Well, it’s okay if I just roughly tell you what I saw and felt, right?

* * *

After the sun sets.

I got in the car with Corey and headed to the party.

The location of Leon Laclair’s birthday party was his mansion in Beverly Hills.

There were already numerous cars lined up at the entrance.

Looking at the size of the mansion from the outside, it feels like a medieval European castle.

It seems bigger than Corey’s house.

Well, Leon Laclair’s personal fortune is known to be over $1 billion.

There is a clear difference between the wealth of a millionaire and a ten millionaire, but the difference between a $1 billion rich person and a $10 billion rich person is actually the same.

There is no problem in living your life doing whatever you want.

Rather, compared to stock rich people who only have a lot of stocks and cannot sell them due to management rights, actors who receive tens of millions of dollars for each movie can live more luxuriously.

We got out of the car and went inside.

A friendly face was waiting there.

“Are you here?”

“Darian!”

None other than Darian Harrelson.

I said happily.

“I heard you couldn’t come.”

“I thought I couldn’t come too. Fortunately, my filming ended a little early, so I was able to save some time.”

It’s been a while since we met, so it’s nice to see you again.

The handsome guy next to Darian greeted me.

“hello.”

“uh! “Eden has also come.”

Edin was also happy to see me.

“yes. how have you been doing?”

“sure.”

Darian told us.

“Follow me. “I have to go see today’s protagonist.”
