Zander woke up the second night after being unconscious for a day and a night. When Darnell and Zander's family heard the news the next morning, they cried and hugged each other, staging a grand reconciliation.
Initially, Zander's parents couldn't accept his sexual orientation. But Zander and Darnell had known each other for a long time, almost since Zander graduated from graduate school, completed his military service, and joined a construction company. They met at a topping-out ceremony on a construction site. Darnell, then a novice makeup artist who was willing to take any job, had been hired to do makeup for the small models invited to the ceremony. Zander recognized that they were kindred spirits, and it wasn't long before they became a couple.
In the turbulent years that followed, they supported each other to reach this point. Zander had carved out a successful career in the north without relying on his family, but deep down, he always yearned for his loved one to be accepted by his family.
Now, due to an accident, Zander's dream had unexpectedly come true. Life's unpredictability was aptly demonstrated by this turn of events!
The filming of "Spring City Dawn Dream" was nearing its end. Cierra's stay at Basil's house would eventually be exposed, so she decided to confess everything to Cynthia in advance. This included her current pseudo-cohabitation with the famous director for therapeutic purposes. What therapy? Of course, Cierra added some embellishments. In her description to Cynthia, Basil wearing the green hat who was traumatized by Lettie's two-timing and developed a fear of love. As a professional and strong-willed love manager, Cierra felt obligated to help her employer heal his emotional wounds.
She remembered that when Cynthia heard this, she almost went online to search for a "chastity belt" to buy for her. She was terrified that her beloved daughter would fall into the clutches of the famous director and constantly warned her, "Handsome and wealthy men are the root of all evil," and other such things.
Sometimes she thought that having two moms had made her see and experience a lot. The pre-transmigrated Cynthia was an eccentric who loved writing stories, and the post-transmigrated Cynthia was just as imaginative. It was as if they shared one body with two souls, and she loved both of her moms dearly.
That day, after returning from visiting the hospital with Basil, they found out that Zander had been transferred to a regular ward. His condition was very optimistic. The doctor estimated that it wouldn't be long before he could start rehabilitation, and within half a year, he should be able to walk normally.
"Cici, what are your plans after finishing '"Spring Dream In City'?"
"I don't know, I just want to rest for a few weeks first!" This time, the income from being a love manager was enough for her to take a break on an island for a year without worrying about her livelihood. "By the way, when are you going to terminate the love manager contract?"
Since Basil last mentioned terminating the contract, it's been another two or three months!
"Are you so eager to get rid of me?" Basil's voice sounded rather displeased.
Cierra wasn't afraid at all. "I'm just worried about you spending money. Aren't you planning to sign a second artist? You'll have to pay me double the salary. Won't it be a burden?"
"Not at all," hearing that Cierra was worried about him, Basil smiled, his tone softening.
He actually wanted to say that supporting his future wife was no burden. He had long decided that Cierra was the one he wanted to spend his life with. Even if she didn't feel the same yet, he was Cierra—what he had in abundance was patience, perseverance, and endurance. He believed that Cierra was different from Lettie.
"Let's terminate the contract first. I might resign after the Christmas," Cierra coughed, trying to hide her nervousness. Did Cierra catch her meaning?
"You're not going to be a love manager anymore?" Basil was taken aback, then asked with concern half a second later, "Why? Are you unhappy working for me?"
Cierra rolled her eyes.
People always said Mr. Logan was smart and well-educated. How could he not realize that she was trying to tell him she just wanted to stay by his side, whether as his artist or in any other capacity? Basically, she intended to stick with him for life!
