Doctor Annastacia's Love Scandal
Interlude

Max Brury, manager of JC felt the change in the temperament of his artist. Previously, JC was always cheerful and enthusiastic about all his activities. However, lately, he seems to be moody and tends to be introverted. Finally, Max Brury tried to get JC to talk heart to heart to lighten the burden on the young man's heart.

"Boy, tell me the truth, what's bothering you?" Max said as he puffed his cigarette smoke.

JC also smokes with Max, he recently really likes to smoke alone to relieve the pain in his heart due to the end of his love story with the beautiful surgeon from Grenada. "I like Annastacia, Max. The surgeon who treated me after the accident. Unfortunately, she's engaged, she turned me down," said JC glumly.

Hearing JC's story, Max was silent. JC's position as a top idol in all of America is very difficult if you want to have a relationship with an ordinary girl. His career will be at stake, most of JC's fans who are women of course will have an antipathy to Annastacia and will probably stop idolizing JC.

"I'm sorry to say that Anna did the right thing. She must be thinking about your career as well, besides being engaged. So what are your plans? Maybe it's worth starting a new special relationship with another beautiful girl. I'll try to sort it out with management. artist," said Max Brury trying to give JC reasonable advice.

However, JC shook his head languidly. "Look, Max. I can't forget her, she has stolen my heart. I want her to be mine," argued JC stubbornly.

Max Brury sighed tiredly, he couldn't force JC to go along with his wishes. Meanwhile, he also has a secret love story with Doctor Annastacia's older sister. They are both figuring out how the relationship should be continued or ended. A doctor has a time-consuming work schedule, while he has a responsibility as a JC manager to follow JC's artistic agenda.

"Uhm... JC if I may be honest, actually I'm dating Doctor Anna's sister," said Max bowing his head while playing Jack'D Cola in his glass.

"WHAT?!" exclaimed JC surprised to hear his manager's words. He laughed like he couldn't believe it. "Is she pretty like Anna? What's her name, Max?" asked JC curiously.

The 35-year-old man blushed as he replied, "Her name is Jocelyn Brighton, of course, she is very beautiful. She is an Obstetrician at Wyndham International Hospital. The whole Brighton family works at the hospital, JC."

JC punched Max's arm while laughing saying "You're moving fast, Max. How did you get Doctor Jocelyn's heart? You have to teach me the trick!"

Max chuckled at JC. "Hey, we've known each other for a long time. She's my junior classmate who was 2 grades apart in middle school. I used to live with my grandparents as a teenager in Grenada, before finally going to college in LA," said Max.

"Ohh, that's right, Max. I thought you were that good and could conquer a doctor's heart in a week," said JC and took a sip of his drink.

"I'm thinking of persuading Jocy to move to California with me. If she's willing, I'll immediately propose to her parents," Max said calmly as he gazed up at the night sky on JC's luxurious swimming pool terrace.

"I envy you, Max. If only I could seduce Anna like her older sister. She's a very stubborn girl. Many times I was shocked by her response, I kissed her she disliked it and got angry. I asked her out, she turned me down. Millions of girls across America wanted to go on a date and kiss me, but Anna reacts negatively. That's so weird, Max!" said JC while shaking his head still feeling Anna so strange.

Max patted JC's back in support. "I don't think she's ever been in a relationship, you have to be patient with Anna. Maybe she needs time. Keep in touch with her via WA messages or messenger, JC," he suggested and said goodbye to go home.

***

After a few months passed, JC's work was so busy that the young man began to forget his feelings for Annastacia. While his popularity is skyrocketing, everyone knows JC when they cross paths in public.

The reason is that the young man became the star of advertisements for many products, from snacks, soft drinks, coffee, electronic devices, clothing, shoes, perfume, toothpaste, and luggage, all goods traded in America as well as several Asian and European countries, the majority of which were starred by JC in his advertisements. Not to mention his songs grace the American Billboard charts every week non-stop. Shops playing JC's hits made it even more popular.

In Grenada, North America, where Annastacia lives is the same. Everything about JC is so popular there. All young old ladies adored the pop star. JC's posters decorate shopping centers because he is a brand ambassador model for famous brand products. Even Annastacia, who had not recognized JC at the beginning of their meeting a few months ago, now recognized JC.

In fact, to the point of getting tired of seeing the man's face everywhere. That afternoon Anna went to the Mall to shop for daily necessities with Jocelyn, her older sister. After they finished shopping, they sat relaxing at the coffee shop at the front of the Mall while chatting. Jocelyn is planned to be proposed by Max Brury, JC manager next week.

"Jocy, are you serious about moving to LA? Are you sure you can practice in a big city?" asked Anna trying to shake her sister's confidence while blowing on her coffee cup which was still steaming hot.

Jocelyn fiddled with her plastic iced cappuccino while glancing at Anna. "What do you mean by that question, Anna? Max and I are serious, you are the one who is too cold and selfish. Sometimes I feel sorry for John, he is like a stray puppy replaceing his helper when he looks at you... so adoring. While you don't pay much attention to him," said Jocelyn sarcastically sneering at her sister.

"Hahaha... you're ridiculous, Jocy! John really cares about me and I also pay attention to him even though I may not be as expressive as he seems," replied Anna with a laugh.

From behind her chair, a manly and handsome man approached Annastacia and kissed the top of the girl's head. "Hi Honey, sorry for the long wait. Doctor Benedict wanted to talk to me before going home. So can we go now or do you still want to talk to Jocelyn?" said John attentively looking at Anna's face while sitting in the chair next to Anna.

"Jocy, I'm leaving now. I hope the proposal goes well, I'll come the night before the event. You know I have a busy schedule. Send my greetings to papa and mama at home," Anna said as she packed her groceries and stood up.

Quickly John helped carry Anna's groceries without being asked. "Thanks, John. Let's go," said Anna, smiling sweetly at her fiancé.

"Remember what I said earlier, Anna!" Jocelyn's message suddenly got a glare and a shake of the head from Anna.
