Michael huffed indignantly, then turned back to the mirror and grinned foolishly. "You don't understand fashion. This is a limited edition, a one-of-a-kind piece that's hard to come by."
"Are you going for a photoshoot? Isn't that scheduled for the afternoon?" The sleepy-eyed manager glanced at the wall clock in confusion.
"No, I'm going on a date."
"With whom?"
"Ms. Chloe from Exotic Star." Michael smirked. "I guess she wants to ask about Noah."
The manager's facial features twisted in disbelief. He sprang up from the sofa, looking startled. "Are you serious?”
Because of that guy's interference, Michael’s schedule was pushed back for a whole month. Does he really want to stir up trouble again? Does he want to ruin his career?
Michael nonchalantly fixed his hair. "Well, I finally found someone I'm interested in. If she wants to meet up, how am I to refuse?"
"Just be careful not to say anything inappropriate, and definitely don't try to meddle in Chloe and Noah’s relationship. This is a crucial time for your career. Don't get involved in unnecessary drama," the manager advised, feeling his work being jeopardized as well if Michael was left unchecked.
Michael shrugged and chuckled. "No worries. I can go home to help my dad raise his livestock. After all, there's no one to take over the ranch."
The manager sighed, feeling exasperated. 'Rich kids are a different species. They’re so troublesome!' he thought.

In a cozy cafe, Chloe arrived to find Michael already seated with coffee on the table. As soon as he caught sight of her, a warm smile spread across his face. He gallantly pulled out the chair next to him and said, "Have a seat, Ms. Chloe."
