Paul picked his keys up taking one last sip of his soda he dropped it on the table. He walked to the television to turn it off when he saw Jessie's picture come up. He paused and looked at the television waiting for the news.
'Early last morning the body of the actress Jessie Marin was found in the woods by a passerby. Police investigation have concluded that it was a suicide. The investigation says that the actress was guilty of murdering her driver and running away because of the guilt. The motive for the murder is not known but it is concluded, that her death was a suicide. They have received a series of incriminating evidence such as the gun used to kill the driver and a recorded call sent to her co-star Patricia Lee.'
Paul stared at the television in awe, what the actual hell?! Jessie Marin was dead?
'The entire country is in complete shock as this beloved icon has not only taken her life but has also committed the worst of sins. Her fans are in outrage and are protesting outside her residence and agency. The agency, King entertainments is yet to release a statement.'
Paul pulled out his phone and went online, the entire internet was blowing up. Everywhere comments of what a witch she was, how she deceived and lied to so many people. But here and there he saw messages of people saying it was fabricated and someone was trying to pin the murder on her since she was dead. Even some other celebrities were supporting her.
'If Jessie Marin is dead, who the hell did he see this afternoon?' He thought. "I've got to call Jason." He ran upstairs quickly and grabbed his jacket and ran downstairs dialing Jason's number as he ran out of his house.
"Pick up, pick up!" He said as he got into his Lamborghini.
"What? Have you gotten Katherine from my apartment?" Jason said from the phone.
"Ahh I actually forgot about that, I'll go now. But that's not why I called." He put down his phone and it connected to the car. So he spoke through the car as he drove, realising that Jason would probably be doing the same thing he asked.
"Are you alone?"
"Why?" Jason asked.
"Just answer it's important." He sighed.
"No, I'm taking Jessie home." Jason said.
'Shit!' Paul cursed internally.
"Where are you going to be afterwards?" He asked.
"Uh, I have a date."
"You have a date?" Paul asked.
"Yes. Can't I meet women?"
Paul laughed and shook his head "It's your Fiancee right? Of course it has to be?"
"You have a Fiancee?" Paul heard Jessie's voice through the phone.
"Look Paul I'll call you later." Jason said.
"But wait..." the phone disconnected. "Where the hell is he going to be?" He sighed.
"Call Kat." He said as the phone dialed Katherine.
"Paul?" Katherine said from the speaker.
"Katherine! Where are you right now?" Paul asked.
"Where do you think? I'm in Jason's building. The jerk had my car towed!" She huffed.
"Can I ask why?" Paul asked.
"Huh... that didn't sound as sarcastic or annoying as I thought it would be, you didn't even laugh, are you okay?" she asked.
"Yeah, just learned something big. About Jessie or the woman pretending to be Jessie Marin."
"What the hell are you saying? What do you mean the woman pretending to be Jessie Marin. Paul?" Katherine asked.
"I'll tell you when I get there, I'm almost at the building. I'll tell you when I arrive." He said.
"Okay, I'll be waiting." Katherine said disconnecting the call.
Paul swerved switching lanes, he speed up and drove to Jason's building. Something was incredibly wrong.

"What the hell is this?!" Director Martin yelled slamming his hands on his desk. "Look!" He pointed to the television. "Look what that woman has done, how the hell are we supposed to come out of this situation! Tell me!"
Tony bowed his head and stared at his feet, he himself had not been able to come to terms with the news. It honestly didn't make sense to him, he was beyond shocked. He didn't even know where to go from here, how to feel or how to think. Jessie was like a little sister to him, and she was dead! He didn't even have the opportunity to mourn her and now they were blaming her for murder? He couldn't believe it, he wouldn't believe it.
"Director, I don't know, I have no idea what's going on." He said.
"You incompetent fool! She was your responsibility, did you not know she was doing all this or was such a person?" The director asked.
"No I did not. Because she is not this kind of person, regardless of what anyone says I refuse to agree that Jessie was that kind of person." Tony said firmly.
"Aigoo look at his attitude, of course. Do I look like I care what you think? What are we going to do now? Look at where we are meeting? Nobody can even go close to the building. She is not our only star, where are the musicians going to rehearse? Our trainees? What where you doing when this news was getting published?!" The director asked. "They media, her crazy fans are harassing our other stars and workers. I'm sure very soon the celebrities would be asking for termination of contracts and the trainees would be running to other companies. What now?"
"This was too fast, before I had that opportunity to even ask the police what they had it had been released to the media." Tony said.
"Stupid excuses!" The director yelled. "Fix this our you're getting sued in her place!"
Tony looked up at his director in shock, what could he do?
"And release a statement apologising to the public for having a murderer as part of our agency-"
"Director!" Tony gasped.
"What! What! What else are we to do? And can't you see? She is a murderer, we can't be associated with her right now much less support her. Tell them we won't have such mistakes repeated."
"I won't." Tony said.
"What did you just say? Look Tony I understand you cared for her like your own family. But look it doesn't matter if she is innocent, she is dead now. The living keep living. Are you going to throw away your job for her? It not as if she's suffering any of this right now. So do as I say, remember your wife is pregnant with the third child. Don't throw away your life Hmmm?" The director said. "Now do as I say."
"But director."
"Fix this, we can't go under for someone that is not even alive anymore." He said.
"That doesn't mean we should tarnish her whole image." Tony argued. "She deserves respect, after everything she did for this agency. She was the one that picked it up from the ground. Even during the hard time she refused to leave and go to another company. Don't do this director."
"She might have as well let us go under that time. Because we would have at least have had some hope. Look Tony, I understand this is hard but I'm done negotiating with you. Do as I say."
"Director please, at least let me alone support her. Even if the company isn't going to, let me alone support her." Tony pleaded.
"Fine, for old time sakes. But King entertainment has nothing to do with Jessie Marin. Not anymore at least."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
