Scarlett cupped her cheeks, she was embarrassed because she knew that her face was blushing red right now.
She kept glancing at Kazir who was looking at him worriedly...
'As expected. He's really handsome. Gosh! I want to squeeze his cheeks. He's so cute and handsome!'
The corners of her lips curled up without her knowing. She had been facing this feeling for years now. She had to admit it, Kazir was indeed handsome.
At first, it was just a crush, but the attraction grew stronger the more she knew him. Kazir was probably the best man she ever met. And it would be such a waste if other women acquired him.
You know, even finding love was a competition. Since you're going to find a long-life partner, why not settle for the best out there?
Scarlett met so many men in the industry but no one could compare to Kazir and the achievements he achieved. That was super attractive, and there was nothing wrong with that.
"Scarlett? Are you okay?"
Perhaps being curious, Kazir decided to touch the woman's forehead and Scarlett felt like she was struck by lightning. Her already red face turned even more red. She looked like a tomato at this point.
"I- I'm fine."
She took a step back. Afraid of what she would do.
She took a deep breath. She was an actress for god's sake. Her blushing face returned to normal and her demeanor also turned to usual.
Now, she was staring at Kazir normally. Although she knew deep inside that her heart was beating so fast.
"If you know my type. Then you probably know that I like men who are older than me."
"Yeah, I know about that," Kazir replied without a problem. He already read the article and he respects people's preferences.
People are allowed to have preferences after all.
"Hm, that's good."
She smiled and passed him the half-empty bottle that she had drunk earlier.
"Huh? Why are you giving me your bottle? I have mine."
"Nothing, that's my gift to you. You pass."
She giggled and returned to the training. She was more happy and active.
"... I have no idea what's going on in her mind. But I'm happy that she's happy."
Taken 3 would continue their training this month. They would start filming in February.

The list of the highest-grossing movies of 2004 was a bit surprising. Who would have thought that the Green Ogre would actually dominate the worldwide box office?
1. Shrek 2. The movie almost surpassed 1 billion! The movie grossed $935 million. DreamWorks Animation is surely celebrating right now. And Jeffrey Katzenberg was probably giving the middle finger to Walt Disney right now.
2. Harry Potter and The Prisoner Of Azkaban with $795 million. Well, there's nothing to be surprised about here. Harry Potter has been a strong franchise since the start. The Prisoner Of Azkaban was the 3rd movie of the franchise and it had a solid fan base who would watch the movie every year. Warner Brothers was surely happy.
3. Spider-Man 2. Compared to the first movie that created history, the second movie had a lower box office, with $783 million. Well, the movie suffered from scandal. Both Tobey Maguire and Kazir Grey received criticism because of fake allegations. But overall, the result was positive since $783 million was never a small money. Also, the biggest profit came from merchandise sales so Sony-Colombia was not disappointing at all.
4. 2 Fast 2 Furious. As always, Grey Pictures solidified its position in the industry. This studio kept releasing blockbusters every year. 2 Fast 2 Furious grossed $751 million at the worldwide box office.
5. The Incredibles. Created by Pixar Animation Studio, this movie grossed $631 million at the box office.
6. Mr. And Mrs. Smith 2. It is the second Continental Cinematic Universe movie on the list. The movie just ended its screening with $624 million. Now that CCU was getting more relevant, studios were seriously studying the business structure of the Cinematic Universe as a whole.
7. The Passion Of The Christ. Directed by Mel Gibson, this movie based on Jesus Christ's crucifixion garnered mixed reviews all over the globe because of controversies. Overall, the movie grossed $612 million.
8. The Day After Tomorrow was a disaster movie about climate change that caused a second ice age and covered the world in snow. This science fiction caught the interest of people and grossed $552 million.
9. Troy was produced by Warner Brothers. A historical epic movie starring Brad Pitt, Eric Bana, and Orlando Bloom. It grossed $497 million. This was Brad Pitt's second movie that reached the top 10 this year. The actor's popularity surged together with his salary...
10. Shark Tale was another DreamWorks Animation movie. It grossed $374 million. Again, DreamWorks Animation was going to have a celebration and Jeffrey Katzenberg was probably giving the middle finger to Walt Disney.
This was the top 10 highest-grossing list created by Forbes Magazine. However, this list was still incomplete since some movies released late in the year still haven't completed their screening, such as Ocean's Twelve and La La Land.
The top 10 movies this year were occupied by:
DreamWorks Animation: 2 movies (Shrek 2, Shark Tale)
Warner Brothers: 2 movies (Harry Potter and The Prisoner Of Azkaban, Troy)
Sony-Colombia: 1 movie (Spider-Man 2)
Grey Pictures: 2 movies (2 Fast 2 Furious, Mr. And Mrs. Smith 2)
Pixar/Walt Disney: 1 movie (The Incredibles)
Newmarket Films: 1 movie ( Passion Of The Christ)
20th Century Fox: 1 movie (The Day After Tomorrow)

[Author's Note: I realized that Harry Potter released a movie in 2004, and it was not in the usual December, so I thought they didn't release a movie in 2004. Anyway, I already edited chapter 441 for that.]
[I'm also not sure if Forbes Magazine actually makes a box office list every year.]
