Hollywood Zenith-Chapter 967: Easily solved!-1
" So." She said as they sat down on the gazebo facing the small river. It was a ideal place to spend relaxing time while enjoying the greenery surrounding the estate. To block winter winds, they even installed some wide windows.
" So?"
" You are not sure about my weakness like others right? Unlike them, I don’t have a hobby which I feel strongly about or anything here that could tie me long enough for you to escape." Miranda said as she took one sip of the Americano maid’s prepared for them.
" Don’t you think you are reading too much into it? I am just trying to make their stay more comfortable." He said with a blank look which made Miranda laugh.
" Come on, we all know what and why you are doing this? There is no need to hide it from me. Even they might know that, you are not a very good actor."
" Contrary to your belief, I can vouch that I am a great actor. You just don’t know it yet." He smiled back. He had to admit, her bright grey eyes couple with two huge dimples when she smiled was a captivating sight still, he didn’t look at her in any weird way, just admired her beauty for a moment.
" Fine, say I believe you but I can’t seem to understand why? Don’t you find us attractive or is there a big secret you are trying to hide by interacting with beautiful girls?" She said with a smirk which sent a chilled down his spine. He knew what she was implying!
" No! Absolutely not! I can’t believe you would think of me like that, haven’t you know about me enough to notice I don’t swing that way?" He vehemently denied her ridiculous aquisations.
" Calm down buddy, I don’t know what people do behind closed doors but from what I heard about you you seem to be keeping up appearances more than trying to tie down any one woman." She felt amused seeing him flustered.
" I don’t know what Anastasiya told you about me but I never agree to any of this. I am flattered though but I don’t want all of you to go through with it as it would only bring harm your way." Hearing his answer, she tilted her head in confusion.
" Before that, you can you tell me what you talked about and what’s the condition for this agreement?" He asked.
She sighed and told him everything. How Anastasiya approached her and the truth about their relationship. They knew each other which was why she got curious about why Anastasiya was going so far as to help someone like him.
" You know, I always wondered what’s goes in crazy head of hers. Many people fear her because of her past associations but all I see is a free spirited girl trying to do whatever she could to enjoy her life to the fullest. I heard few bits and pieces of her past and I know that these things are only a mask to protect her true feelings. Even then, I never saw her with a man.
Hell, I thought she was into women because few times I saw that she brought dates who were women to the party but she never displayed any affection in public."

" I never knew you two knew each other." Samuel added.
" I don’t know how to describe our relationship but I do know that she could be trusted when I need help. She helped me plenty of times to drive away few people who started to behave overtly sexually during few of my shoots. Beside I was still fairly unknown at that time so whatever she did with them helped a lot." He just nodded.
He had seen with his own eyes how such a thing could happen when he met Nathaniel and helped the girls few weeks ago.
" She said you needed some comfort after your terrible breakup but I don’t see you sad. There is some hint of emotions you are trying to bury but I don’t know what to call them. Overall, you don’t look like someone who would lack female company. I saw how your maids looked at you, especially what was her name? Nicole right?"
" You could say that we have a special relationship. We practically grew up together, she was my exclusive maid since I was eleven."
" Wow, I never thought these things happen in our day and age. By special, do you mean you two.."
" Yes but only recently." He shrugged feeling like he could trust her. He didn’t feel any ill will or hidden intentions from her and it was nice to have someone to talk to especially about these things.
" Then, what’s the problem? Is she trying to bury her nose into something she shouldn’t have?" A terrible realization hit her. Anastasiya was known to be spontaneous, what if it was one of her ploy to do something illegal? She knew the normal Anastasiya but she also knew that her work was not all sunshine and roses.
" No, I think she is trying to help me in her own way. I don’t like her approach but I can see where she is coming from after all there is a lot on the line for her." He said softly.
" I want to know. Can you tell me everything?" She asked.
Samuel thought about for a second and decided it was best to come clean about his and Anastasiya’s situation. He started from their first meeting at the Fabian’s restaurant and also explained Helga’s situation.
Miranda would sometime exclaimed and sometimes grimace hearing his story. He knew he made a lot of mistakes while handling her situation. He could have asked Helga first and tried from there but at that time, he was angry and wanted to scare Anastasiya and her goons and find some way to resolve Helga and Katarina’s trouble back home.

But what it did was to open the floodgates to several other issues. He still remembered Helga’s pained face when she left without saying a word to him. The last thing he wanted to do was to get involved with new people but Anastasiya thought it was best way for him to overcome the barrier he placed around his heart!
