New Life: A Second Chance

Kyle and Sam went to the first venue for the interview. It was for a Satellite TV Channel, and it was one of the top entertainment news portal of the country. 

"How did you manage to get this gig anyway?" Kyle asked Sam as they headed towards the venue, "I mean, this is a rather obscure part of the world."

"It's not that obscure," Sam said, pushing the glasses up his nose, "Chad did want to penetrate the Asian market and this is a good spot as any."

"People would normally go to Country Sg though," Kyle pointed out.

"Yes, but you would have preferred Country M, right?" Sam replied.

Kyle couldn't say anything to that, other than, "Thanks, Sam."

He was also grateful that Sam didn't ask why Country M was so special to him.

It wasn't because he didn't trust Sam or that he didn't want to tell Sam. Rather, he wanted to tell him at the same time as when he told Ali. After all, Ali was the last of the Elite Five to know about his other life, so he felt it was fair that when he finally revealed everything, there would be something that Sam hadn't known as well.

In truth, Kyle was beginning to feel like things were unraveling a bit. Or rather, things were going slightly beyond his control. He may have made his plans since his conception, but there were just so many variables and changes that have happened since then. 

Not only that ...

But ever since he came to Country M, there was a restlessness in his heart that he couldn't quite contain.

They were so close!

All this time, he could withstand the feeling because they were so far away. Across the other side of the globe. Now, however, he was here. He could just get a cab and go to their school, just to watch them.

15 years. He had to endure for 15 years. Worse, he has to continue enduring for another 4 more years.

The funny thing was, his son is only 9 years old this year while his daughter is 7, just entering primary school for the first time.

He had been missing his children even before they were born. The torture for the first year had been unimaginable. He could only live with their memories in his head and heart, as he slowly built up his 'empire'. 

He had to lay out the foundation first. 

Kyle had filled up his mind with work, training and of course, Kay. Thus, by the time his first son was born, he had the basics to start monitoring them covertly. Unfortunately, the really proper monitoring could only begin after Agent Oreo had been recruited formally but even then, it was enough.

There were MIB that had been recruited here though they didn't know at first they were MIB. Later on, MIB infiltrated Rex Industries and were deep undercover, only to be activated after Kylie's death.

Slowly, slowly at a snail's pace, he was getting there. 

Things were gaining traction, getting closer to that point in time when he died.

At the same time, Kyle was also beginning to notice that he was also starting to have some sort of personal 'crisis'. He had always been in complete control of himself and he knew what he wanted. However, he was beginning to lose his sense of self as he grew older. 

Kyle figured it was his male hormones clashing with his female mind, more so since his male side was becoming stronger as his female 'death' was approaching. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.readwn.comfor visiting.

Kyle knew he had to figure this out. Figure himself out, before that time. 

For now, though. He had the interview to get over with.

✿.✿.✿.✿

The set-up was supposed to be the relaxed type, with sofas placed in a semi-circle. The interviewer was at one end while Kyle was at the other. 

Kyle wasn't the only 'celebrity' here, and he took the opportunity to get to know them before the shooting began.  

The first was Shahdee, an actress that was rising in the local scene. She had that fresh look that screamed 'victim' so Kyle guessed she's typically the type of female lead that would be bullied by a rich and spoilt heiress, and rescued by an equally rich and handsome CEO. 

The second was JJ, an up-and-coming rap singer. Something unusual in the local scene as doing rap in the national language wasn't common. Still, he had a decent following. 

Both did not know who he was, which was fine by him.

He was the only foreigner here, and thus, his treatment was slightly more special. They didn't want him to have a bad impression of their country, so one person had been assigned to stay with him and explain things.

Kyle was the youngest there, and everyone was surprised that he was there unsupervised. Unlike some of the foreign actors that came, he did not have an entourage or an agent with him. They found that strange, but didn't ask.

"So ....," began JJ, looking at Kyle, trying to start a conversation while they were waiting for shooting to begin, "Promoting a movie?"

Kyle nodded, and responded accordingly, "Congrats on the new single."

"Whoa. How did you know?" he asked in surprise.

He had guessed Kyle was an actor rather than a singer, for foreign singers would normally go to radio stations for exposure. JJ would have done so as well, but since his song was the background music for a movie, he thought of expanding his base more.

With that, Kyle jerked his head at Sam, saying, "I have a capable assistant."

As if on cue, Sam started reciting all the information about JJ - his life, career, albums and even played the latest single that he had bought on Spotify. Without being asked, he did the same for Shahdee.

"You're an assistant?!" JJ said, his eyes wide open, "How old are you again?"

Sam answered stoically, "14."

Their jaws dropped.
