Hollywood Zenith - Chapter 572 Getting ready for the Party-2
Chapter 572 Getting ready for the Party-2
” Here sir, I think it will look perfect for the occasion.” She pulled out a three piece suit that was full black with only the waist coat giving it a little lighter color. But with one look no one would notice it if the jacket was buttoned.
Seeing Samuel unimpressed by it, she said,” Vicuna fibres makes for the finest fabric with unequalled softness and beauty. I am sure it will be best fit for you.”
” It’s not that I don’t like the material. It’s just that I have been wearing all black for almost all my public appearances. This time, I want to try something more lighter and upbeat.” He wasn’t just saying it. He knew what sort of questions awaited him, with him being more pleasing to the eye, he hoped to mitigate their initial fan’s perception.
” I also think some lighter color would look best on you, young master.” John commented. He didn’t know much about suits, he was only giving them his first impressions.
” Perfect! I thought you liked darker shade which was why, I showed you this but if you are willing to try lighter shade I have perfect suit for you!” She said excitedly.
” Mariam empty the dressing room! This way sir.”
” Do you want me to try it out? Should I look at it first?”
” No, you have to wear it to know. It’s a very rare suit even in our collection.” She insisted on him trying it out. Samuel decided to follow her advice, it’s not like they were pandering him to buy something expensive.
Soon, someone brought the suit and delivered it to him inside the staff’s changing room. WIth store’s being occupied, it was the only place left where he could get some privacy. He went out wearing shirt and pants after which they quickly dressed him up with remaining parts.
” Wow!” Someone exclaimed. Samuel looked himself in the mirror and he had to say it was indeed a nice suit.
” I can see why you suggested it.”
” Yes! Even though we need to do some fitting around here and here.” She started taking notes. With his abrupt visit they didn’t have anything specific to his body measurements.
” What is this fabric? It doesn’t feel like Vicuna.”
” You noticed? There are six type of different fabrics mixed in this piece with everything meshed together with white gold threads. The designer put a lot of emphasis on making it almost unnoticeable to others but the wearer would feel the difference.” Samuel nodded feeling that her explanation perfectly fit his situation.
” Who designed it? It’s not the usual authentic Armani that I usually get. It feels more modern with several inspirations blended together from the past.”
” He is relatively new to the fashion scene but his skills are top notch. The company recently hired him to design few pieces for us.”
” Well, I would love to meet him someday.”
” I am sure he would like that.”
” Alright, I will go with this. You already have my measurements, please deliver it to the estate before the premier.”
Before changing he went out to show John who also said the same things as everyone else. He didn’t know about fabric but only gave a overall assessment. The origin of this chapter’s debut can be traced to n(0)vel(b)(j)(n).
” What about getting one for yourself too?”
” Please stop teasing this old man, with my belly, they would only be wasting it on me.”
” Come on, buy one for your anniversary dinner or something? I think she will like it.”
” No, my wife-”
” will kill you I know. Aren’t you tired of the same boring excuse?”
“….” Seeing his expression, Samuel knew he couldn’t change his mind on this so he left him alone and went back to change.
When he came out, he heard some commotion from the front of the store and asked,” What’s happening?”
” I don’t know sir. I should check it out.” The manager left leaving along with other staff leaving him and John alone.
” Are we heading back? I have to say, I never liked shopping.” John asked.
” Probably, I was thinking about visiting some watch stores and also get a couple of shoes that matches the suit.”
” It’s up to you, should I bring out the car for you?”
” I don’t know.” he wanted to hurry back home to spend more time with the girls. If he was gone for too long and they knew he was going shopping, they would literally fight him. In the end he decided it was best to avoid a three on one fight and head home.

” Miss, if you are looking for ladies section then it’s upstairs.” The staff stopped two girls trying to enter at the back of the shop.
” No we are looking for someone.” One of them said.
” Are you sure he is here? We only know that he went out shopping, there is no way to tell where he likes to do that right?” The other one whispered.
” Don’t worry, I know him better than anyone. He should be here, why the shop is still open is a little odd. Normally they would close it but them blocking this section means he is here.”
” Miss you can’t be here this is a closed section.” The staff saw them whispering to themselves and reminded once again.
” See? It’s closed.” She paused and turned toward the staff again,” We wanted to look at your stocks. I heard there are new designs that have yet to be displayed.”
” We can’t do that Miss. You can come by later this week, we will have fresh stock then.”
” It’s urgent. It doesn’t matter if you charge us extra, just let us through.”
Just then the manager came into the room and started talking with the girls.
” We don’t charge extra for anything. If you are in a hurry, you can wait upstairs.”
” We can choose here, it will save some time.”
” That won’t be necessary.” The manager was stern not to let them through.
” We should just call me no?”
” and ruin the surprise? Don’t forget we are here on a mission.” They started talking to each other again.
The manager waited for them and looked at their attire more closely. From the first look, they didn’t appear to be lacking money, top quality clothes and even designer bags? She knew they were from rich family especially the meek one, just looking at her watch, she knew her family was beyond wealthy.
Which meant the reason why they were here were specific. She had heard that someone recognized Samuel at the entrance, maybe they were fans trying to meet him?
” Alright, let me put it to you straight. I know you guys are his admirers but stalking him inside the shop and even arguing with my people when you are told that you can’t be here is just too much. If you truly want to meet him, do it in normal way!” She knew she was about to lose some potential customers but protecting Samuel was her number one priority.
” I knew it! Let us through!”
” You can’t!” A shouting match began between one of the girls and the manager.
” No one could stop me from seeing my own brother!”
” Brother? That’s the worst excuse! He doesn’t have a sister!” The manager was sure that Samuel didn’t have any sisters because his identity was made up to begin with. Unless he employed someone to act as his sister and she didn’t know about it. That seemed like someone that he would do but that didn’t mean she would let strangers inside without confirmation.
” What are you even talking about? I am his sister!”
” We should just call him. There is no point in fighting with them.” The other girl tried to put some sense into her.
” I already told- brother here!” Suddenly she started shouting because she saw Samuel enter the room.
” Hannah? What are you doing here?”
…
…
…
Samuel had been waiting, before leaving he wanted ask them to send some matching ties if they had anything good but he kept hearing people argue outside the room.
” Should I check it out?”
” No, leave it. It must be some fans trying to get in. I did accidentally revealed my identity outside the shop.” He told him about the little girl that he took pictures with.
” That’s why i said, you should enter from the back. Everyday you are getting more and more reckless.”
” Not you too? Why does everyone keep calling me reckless?”
” That’s because you are always in limelight every few months for something ridiculous. I almost fainted when I saw the news about Paris.”
” That was a one time thing!” Their conversation got interrupted when they started hearing some shouting again. Samuel thought they would be able to handle it but in the end he decided to check it out himself.
If it was indeed a fan, he could take a couple of pictures as fanservice. He was feeling a little generous because he didn’t go out as actor Sam often. It could also help him create some buzz right before the movie release.
But when he went out, he saw Hannah trying to strongarm the staff and Princess Kiko standing behind her facepalming looking at the situation. To say he was surprised to see them was an understatement!
