"Don't worry dude. I'll take good care of your life. You'll never have to suffer like that as long as I'm here." Alex patted his shoulder as if trying to reassure the previous soul.

He looked around and found a phone on the nightstand. Picking it up, Alex began to scroll through his contact list until he stopped at 'Manager'. His manager is Amelia, she was the one who scouted Alex and brought him into the modelling world. They've been together since the beginning, so the amount of trust Alex put in her was to the point as seeing her as family. Toying with the phone a bit, he contemplated what to do next.

"Hey parasite. What's Eric Quincy's schedule for this week?"

[...]

The phone vibrated a bit; it was a text message from 'PARASITE'. Pressing on it, a whole document full of dates, times and places were organized in an orderly fashion.

"Good. You have some use."

Parasite was quite offended and feeling indignant in his Hosts opinion on it.

Looking over Eric's schedule today, he found him having dinner at La Roché. La Roché is a very high-class and luxurious restaurant that was rated five Michelin stars. It's been around for a few years and became popular only after a few months after it opened. It was frequently visited by high ranking celebrities and influential people, so this restaurant has made quite the name for itself in the past years. Eric Quincy also wasn't a simple man, he's made quite a lot of connections, both in the business and mafia worlds, and had achievements that made him have easy access to the restaurant. Thankfully, Alex also had quite an influential man in the modeling industry. Although he had only begun his career a few years ago, his popularity and ranking have been rising at a frightening pace. Deciding on that, Alex finally gave Amelia a call. After a few rings, it picked up.

"Hello."

"Amelia, what're my plans today?"

"You have a photoshoot in 2 hours, so you called at a perfect time. Make sure to get ready. The rest of the day you need to attend an interview with Starling Magazine and after that...." You could hear several pages being flipped in the background as Amelia told Alex his schedule for today. The whole month was packed in a tight schedule, but Alex was expecting it. After all, it was a critical time in Alex's career. He needed to get as much exposure as he could get.

"After another photoshoot at Sun Ridge Hill, you're pretty much done for the day."

"Mmh, then...we'll have dinner at La Roché tonight."

"Ooh? Fancy~ Got a girl your meeting?"

A deep chuckle resounded from Alex's throat, "was I just rejected? I ask a girl out to dinner and she asks if I'm meeting another girl? Ouch."

"You've grown so shameless over the years *sob* this sugar mama can't take it anymore!" Amelia was in a way a sugar mama, after all, she had all sorts of connections and a massive amount of wealth. When Alex was first recruited, he was completely depended on her until he was experienced enough to leave her wing.
