Chapter 984: Melanie

"Uhm... excuse me?" James rushed outside, following the mysterious beauty. He wore a nervous smile as the woman stopped in her tracks and looked back at him. "My name is James. I’m Slater’s manager. I’m sorry for what Slater said just now."

The woman smiled and nodded. "Don’t worry. It’s fine since it’s true."

"No, it’s not!" James exclaimed, shaking his head profusely. "You’re beautiful, Miss. Slater is just... he’s just a little blunt, but I’m sure he didn’t mean it!"

"He didn’t mean it?" the woman chuckled. "Whatever you say, Manager James. Thank you for apologizing, but it’s fine. I didn’t take it to heart. Still, I appreciate it."

James smiled at her and took out his business card. "If you ever want to enter the industry, you can always call me. Our company would love to welcome someone as beautiful as you."

The woman arched her brows as her eyes fell on the card in his hand. Her red lips curled up into an amused smile as she took it from him.

"I never thought of it, but I’ll consider it. Perhaps when I have more time," she remarked. "Thank you."

He wouldn’t mind managing that woman as well. After managing Slater’s career for years, James had already gotten used to it, along with his work as the CEO of the company. Besides, it would be good for his portfolio.

"Uh... Slater...?" James moved toward where Slater was. "There’s one more, and then you’re done for the day."

Slater was stretching his neck when James whispered to him. He snapped his eyes open and nodded. _{freewebnσvel.cøm}

"I just want to finish this," he said. James quickly signaled for someone to let the last woman join Slater. Once the woman was seated, James walked away to give Slater and the woman "some" privacy.

"Name?" Slater asked, lazily dragging the album in front of him, not bothering to look at the woman’s face since they all looked the same to him. Moreover, he was a little tired of smiling and entertaining all these girls, even though today’s numbers were nothing compared to his official autograph signings.

’I guess I’m getting older,’ he thought. ’I’m tired after just a few girls? Well, I haven’t worked for almost a month now.’

After a minute, Slater still hadn’t heard the woman speak. He raised his head and repeated,
