Chapter 133 - 133 - Pay
All of them stood before the small group of jurors. There were three of them: one man, Harry, and two women standing by his side.
"It's nice to meet you all! It's great to have all of you in the same room!"
Harry immediately scanned the room like a hawk as he observed everyone in detail to make sure that they resembled their online photos. Let's just say that he wasn't disappointed. He had a big smile on his face in the process.
"You're even prettier in person!" Harry said with a smile while the two girls were staring at Darius with their mouths wide open.
There was just something about him that made them completely lose their minds over him.
'W-Why does he look so hot?'
'He looks so cold… Mhm~ That's so hot~!'
Even the judges were starting to develop crushes on him. Still, they only thought; they didn't act. But that wasn't necessary for Yuna, who immediately noticed it and got to work.
"Stop looking at him like that!" Yuna said with a frown as she leaned against Darius without the slightest hesitation.
Yuna frowned as she knew how other women could get with Darius.
"Why is it that you wanted to meet us?" Darius asked Harry, skipping over the drama that Yuna was trying to create. He just wanted to know so he could leave this place at once.
"Mhm… we just wanted to make sure that you were just like on social media, and it seems that you might even be more interesting. We have some feisty ones in there, which is perfect for the show!" Harry said as he started rubbing his hands together. He could already see the cash flowing in.
"Mhm…" Darius quietly nodded as he had also come here to discuss something.
Their prices.
The salary that they would get from being on his TV reality show.
They were now stars; they wouldn't go on there for free. They would need money to do it.
"What about the money you'll give us? What are you willing to offer for our participation?"
Harry gritted his teeth at that question before smiling once again at everyone. He had hoped for Darius to skip over their prices, but it seemed that was out of the question.
"We are ready to give you as much as 100K per person for your presence."
"500K."
Darius answered right away, and Harry's eyes widened instantly.
"A-Are you crazy?! At most, we can do 200K per person. But that's as far as we will go."
Darius shook his head.
"400K."
He didn't do small talk. He named his price and wanted to see just how high this man would cave. Ariel was having a lot of fun in the back as she watched Darius make a deal. She found it funny that the human before him thought he had an option in all this.
"We can go to 300K, but that's already pushing it."
Darius shook his head again with a smirk. "400K, and we have a deal."
The man frowned and gritted his teeth. He knew that the audience would skyrocket with them on the adventure. They were all so pretty, and their personalities were great. All of them were known; they would definitely be bringing in their fans as watchers of the show.
The man thought for a few seconds. "350?"
But when he saw that Darius was starting to turn around, he immediately lost his cool.
"Okay, okay. Deal for 400K per person!"
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He couldn't miss out on it.
Darius was happy with it. "Please send me the contracts through my business email once they are finalized. How long before the casting and the show starts?"
Harry shrugged. "Should take one week. The show will be taking place in the Bahamas, so make sure to pack as many bikinis as possible. You'll be needing them."
Darius nodded. "About the casting, would it be possible for me to stay and give my opinion on them?"
Harry started shaking his head, but the two girls who were standing behind immediately smiled and grabbed the opportunity with open arms.
"Of course~ You can take Harry's spot if you want." The two of them tapped on the seat in the middle of them.
And Darius didn't waste his time as he went ahead and sat there under the gaze of Harry himself, who could be seen gritting his teeth, his fists clenched.
"Go back to our house. I'll be getting there soon!" Darius told the rest of the girls, who were sad that they had to leave Darius behind, but they accepted without much resistance, leaving Darius with Harry and those two women, who were more than interested in Darius.
Yuna had needed a lot to go, but by the end, Ariel had convinced her to leave.
After all, Darius really wasn't trying to get with the two producers. He just wanted to choose the beauties that would be coming to the Bahamas. As for the men, he couldn't care less because at the end of the day, they would be obsolete since he would be around.
None of the girls would even bother with them. Darius would make sure of it.
Right as everyone left, the two girls slightly leaned onto Darius subtly under the gaze of Harry, who was now sitting on a chair a few steps away from them with a frown on his face.
'Why were they never interested in me in the past?' He shook his head. 'Am I ugly or what?'
He couldn't help but feel jealous of the attention that Darius was receiving. Nevertheless, he indicated for the next candidate to enter.
A beautiful girl who looked very young, barely 18, walked in with a smile. She wore a tight tank top that highlighted her beautiful and ample chest.
However, that wasn't what was interesting about her. It was the fact that Darius… recognized her from the past.
He knew who that person was.
She was someone who would become Yuna's best friend in the future!
What do you think?
