DOS Ch-330
Rod Meyer glanced down at his watch, only to reel back in surprise. Nearly 2 hours and 45 minutes had already passed since the movie began. Most films would have wrapped up by now, yet this one still had several major plot points left to cover. The strange thing was that not for a second had Rod felt bored or thought the film was too long. He didn’t have time to dwell on that thought because the movie, aided by its tight editing, immediately surged back into motion. This time, the perspective…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“But General Motors is considered one of the worst stocks to invest in right now,” Patricia said with a small frown. “I may not be as savvy an investor as Richard, but even I know that.” Troy smiled faintly, leaning back in his chair lazily. “Exactly. It’s hovering near its all-time low of the last decade. I had a meeting with someone very high up in the government a few days ago and received some information about what’s happening behind the scenes, things not yet known to the public.…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“How was your day, love?” Scarlett asked as soon as I got home. I kissed her before bending down to kiss the heads of my two sons, Ace and Ian. I was so used to calling them by their nicknames that I had stopped using Atlas or Damian. The two were in the middle of a play session, but as soon as they saw me, their faces lit up with big grins, and their babbling increased. “It was okay-ish, I guess,” I answered Scarlett’s question after a beat, hoisting both my sons against my chest. “It…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

The movie opened with the characters played by Steve Carell and Julianne Moore on a dinner date together. Steve's character asked his wife what she wanted for dessert, and she responded with something completely unexpected. “I want a divorce.” What seemed like a happy couple suddenly found their marriage falling apart. The strange part was that Cal, Steve's character, never even tried to convince her not to go through with it. He agreed almost immediately. He didn't even ask for a…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

February 2009, London, UK Emma Watson felt like she was finally free after such a long time. As much as she loved the world, it was high time that she moved on. Her time at Oxford University had been some of the best of her life so far. That was another reason she was happy to leave behind. She had taken a year off from her education to finish the last movie, and now she could finally do what she wanted to. The grand ballroom sparkled with chandeliers and gold-trimmed walls, filled with laughter,…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“I hate this job,” Olivia groaned, slumping against the counter as she spoke to her colleague. “Who even buys flowers this late at night?” “Surprisingly, many people do,” Christine replied with a straight face, casually rearranging a bouquet of white lilies. “This is only your first week, and it’s been relatively slow, but you’d be surprised how many men suddenly remember their anniversary or their partner’s birthday at night. Some just want to surprise their girlfriends or wives.…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

@FireStarter12: WTF!? Someone just tried to kill Troy in his own home! It’s all over the news… 😭 This is beyond messed up. I get that people are mad at him, but this doesn’t mean they can try to kill him. @LunaBliss: OMG! I hope he’s okay. I can’t believe our people would stoop so low as to attempt murder on a teenager who just made some money. @SereneDreamer: When will people grow up and get a life? I hate those people who take the law into their own hands. If you have such a problem…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“Please welcome the biggest superstar on the planet. One of the best singers working in the industry right now, and the recipient of multiple Oscars, Grammys, Tonys, and Emmys. Troy Armitage, everyone!” The studio exploded the moment my name was announced. I walked out from behind the curtain, lights flooding the stage as the band struck up its familiar tune. I waved enthusiastically at the crowd, their cheers crashing over me in a wall of sound. The standing ovation was honestly a little too…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

Flashback “That’s a great idea,” I said, genuinely impressed by the concept. Bruno, the representative from the Recording Academy, lit up at the praise. “Thank you! I’ve been working to bring together old and new Grammy winners for quite a while, and the golden anniversary seemed like the perfect time to do it. It feels validating to hear that from someone at your level.” I could see the flattery from a mile away. It was the kind of polite ass-kissing I had grown used to, especially…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

@SereneDreamer: If you still think Troy’s wrong, then it’s obvious you’re missing a few brain cells. You wouldn’t blame a bookie for making money off the loss of your favorite team. Sure, Troy made money, but at least he’s giving back to charity instead of hoarding it. Most of you have no idea how much $4 billion actually is. No other billionaire has ever made such a generous donation. This will probably go in the Guinness Book of World Records as the biggest donation ever. @NovaKnight: Love…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
