Hollywood Zenith



" That's a good idea. I will first talk with him, but I think it is bad if we don't tell them about Samuel's identity."

" Why? Did you tell you not to do it?" Leeteuk asked.

" Not specifically, but it will be bad for us. Just know that his identity is special and will only harm us if we carelessly tell others about it." Manager Kim, who knew about him from Jean, was adamant.

" If you put it like that, you know I will only get more curious." Leeteuk didn't realize what he indicated, so he joked about it.

" You will not hear from me; if he decides to tell you guys, I am fine with it." The manager refused to say anything about it.

Leeteuk wanted to take it further, but someone interrupted their talk; Kim Bo-mi came in looking distressed.

" What happened?" Manager asked.

" U-unnie is g-gone."

" Catch your breath for a while; you are not making sense!" Leeteuk led her to a chair and handed her a water bottle. She immediately drank it, and some life returned to her face.

" I can't find them anywhere; I checked every room!" Bo-mi returned to her distressed demeanour. 

" You mean Mi Sun and others? Weren't they with you guys?"

" They were but they sneaked back an hour ago. I was busy with Shindong oppa and others with fan signing, but when I returned, I didn't see them anywhere!" She panicked.

" Hold on! No need to be like that, have you called our hotel? It's getting late; they must have gone back to rest?" The manager was quick on his feet; with a six-hour show like this, it was obvious that they were dead tired.

It was a little weird because he had arranged for them to eat out tonight at a fancy restaurant, and by the look of things, he knew they were hyped about it, too. From all the time he had spent with them, they never missed such opportunities.

" You are right! I will ask them immediately!" She called, but unfortunately, they were not seen in the lobby. Just to make sure, the staff also called and checked the room for them as they were VIP members, but the results were the same.

Now, the restlessness was started to set in; even Leeteuk, who had seen their shenanigans, found it strange that they couldn't reach them. Everyone started to call individual cell phones, but coincidently, their phones were turned off.

Shindong, Yesung and others also found the chaos inside the room. When they learned about the Grace Generation member's disappearance, they panicked, too! As famous media people, it was one of the worst things that could happen to them.

There were many instances of idols getting into tricky situations; sometimes, fans would rent identical vans and wait outside the concert hall, waiting for them to enter it by mistake. It was mainly harmful kinds of stuff but one time one man tried to kidnap an idol on stage in front of thousands of people!

It had only been a year since that incident, and it was not a laughing matter that the same thing could have happened to the girls. Especially since they were in a foreign country. Who knew what kind of shady people were out here?

" Police!? Should I call the police?"

" Idiot! Police can't do anything fast; we must first call the embassy! They will know what to do!" Everyone started racking their brains to find out the solution.

" What is happening here? Why are you making such a ruckus late at night?" Jean, who still hadn't gone home, came in and asked.

He was informed by the guards that something seemed to be wrong as every member was running around the venue without a care in the world, shouting some names. Some male members even went to female washrooms, which scared some guests.

They immediately told him what was happening, and after listening to them for a minute, Jean asked a simple question.

" What about young master Samuel? Have you called him yet?"

" Sami?"

" Yes, he already left and judging by the time they exited, they likely went with him."

" Now that you mention it, Samuel was indeed in a hurry. But why did they leave with him without saying anything to us?" Manager asked.

" I don't know. I have his number; let me call him." It was fortunate Jean had Samuel's personal number due to circumstances; otherwise, they had to contact Lucie or send someone to his house to confirm if they were really there.

...

" You are good! I didn't know you were this remarkable!"

" Right, here, this one is for our newfound friendship! This really tastes delicious!"

" Of course! It is courtesy of Samuel, who has been caring for my cabinet! It's a shame he doesn't accompany me like you!"

"Haah, you two! How long are you going to keep this up?" Samuel was astonished at how quickly Kayla and Red became friends. It only took a few bottles of high-quality Romane Conti, and now they were laughing and drinking together like two long-lost buddies!

" Waah, don't be like that! Come here, I didn't know you were so bad at drinking! Since you provided such good stuff, this Noona will teach you how to drink!" Mi Sun raised the glass, trying to invite Samuel to sit by her side.

" No! You can't have my Sami! Anything but that!" Kayla vehemently refused her. Their faces were flushed, but it looked like Kayla was getting more drunk because Mi Sun still had some wits to her as she spoke English.

" Leave those two drunkards. I have heated the food; you should have some." Mayra emerged from the kitchen carrying a few plates, and surprisingly, Yoona was there helping her. Ningning and Soo-jin were waiting at the dinner table, looking at the leaves of food with their hungry eyes.

" Honey, don't be like that. Can you prepare some more Comte cheese for us? We are running low on snacks." Kayla said with a cute tone, but it only infuriated Mayra. 

It was their usual dynamic: Mayra wanted to take care of the guest and refused to show her embarrassing side, but Kayla, on the other hand, didn't care. She was wearing skimpy clothes and crudely having drinks with Red without a care. Even though they both had to leave early the following day for their jobs!

" Stay right there! I will bring it to you in a moment!" Despite her harsh tone, she agreed to do it. She knew her nature; Kayla would only make more fuss about it if she said anything.

" Woo, I've never seen dishes like this before."

" Right. We planned to visit a traditional French restaurant, but everything here looks delicious."

"Hehe, thank you, but I couldn't have done it without Miss Yoona. This fried rice was specially prepared by her."

" Unnie! I told you to just call me Yoona. You are older than me!" Yoona was feeling embarrassed. It seems like she was the type that couldn't take compliments head-on.

" I see you added a few things hastily. I asked you if you needed my help; it must have been hard." Samuel asked.

" It's alright; it's good that you can keep them company," Mayra said with a smile. Others looked at their blissful atmosphere; they looked more like a couple than Kayla and Mayra. Despite their curiosity, they refrained from asking about it.

" Please enjoy." They started enjoying the food. Mayra went inside again to prepare some snacks for the other two; it didn't feel that they would last another hour, so it was better they passed out soon so they could stop being so noisy.

" I have been meaning to ask, why are you guys dressed like that. Aren't you embarrassed?" During their chat, Samuel opened another topic. Just as they reached home, everyone took a shower, but the clothes they changed into were too short. 

Mi Sun was only wearing a long t-shirt that barely hid her lower body, and the way that she sat shamelessly, he could clearly see her panties! Ningning was a little formal with a shirt and a pant that she borrowed from Samuel, but Soo-jin was the most shameless one; she was wearing a proper nightgown, but judging by a few bulges, it was evident that she was wearing nothing underneath!

Moreover, she was not even embarrassed when her clothes jiggled due to her movements. It was outrageous, but Samuel had to keep himself from controlling it. But it was getting out of hand!

" What? Is our little Sami embarrassed?" Soo-jin said seductively. She was usually charming as it was, but now, due to her attire, her effects were tenfold!

" I told you not to call me that!" Samuel said with a bashful face. They were clearly treating him like a child!

" Hahaha, so cute! I missed Elise, but our little Sami is not bad either!" She drank the wine and said with a chuckle.

" Hey! Stop being shameless!" Yoona came to his defence.

" My, my, little girl has finally grown up. Do you want to keep him to yourself?" Ningning piled on. She was usually quiet, but it looked like she was drunk too.

" That's enough! It looks like I have to teach you a lesson!" Samuel stood up and walked in Soo-jin's direction. She thought he was bluffing, but he didn't waste any time and grabbed her hand.

" Ehh??"

" What happened? Do you want to do it here? If so, we don't need this, right?" Samuel took off her shirt and exposed her upper body. His majestic, toned body shone with light as his hair fluttered over his ears.

"..." Everyone was shocked and didn't know what to say.
