[At Renner Studios]

 After the conversation with Mason, Ian was in his own office room, accompanied by Murphy. 

 “Sir, tomorrow 2 pm to 6 pm your schedule is free, is there anything you’re planning?” Murphy asked. 

 This was the first time that he noticed a blank four hours in his schedule. Because as far as he was concerned, Ian was busy with one thing or another. 

 “Oh, yes. I do have something in mind,” Ian said and smiled. 

Murphy gave a weird eye at his smile because that was another first. He had quite a journey being Ian’s assistant, but he also knew that the director was an open book when it comes to his schedule. 

“Okay, I’ll just leave it as it is then. Oh, and the interview for Home Alone 2, on Saturday Night Live, is the day after tomorrow, the producer Mr. Danny Leos called in today.”

 “Oh, I’m pretty sure it’s just to remind us right?” Ian asked back curiously. 

 “Yeah… Yes, it is, it’s already time for lunch, may I go down, sir?” Murphy asked as he stood up and straightened his blue shirt. 

 “Yeah, sure. Oh, also don’t forget to email the producer about the theme and the pictures. I remember Mr. Leos saying something like that,” Ian said while Murphy nodded.

 “It’s already on my list. I’ll do it the first thing after lunch, is there anything else?” Murphy asked.

 “No, it’s okay, thank you.”

 Ian watched as Murphy left the office room. 

As soon as his assistant walked out, he took the tablet and logged into his Nwitter to check what was happening. 

He logged in, and saw thousands of notifications. Immediately, he was aware that the entire chaos are about the article that was spreading through the internet, and some were still on and on about the trial and the child. 

 ‘Here goes nothing!’ he thought to himself and lowered the temperature of the air conditioner. 

 Scrolling down, there were two trends that caught his attention. One was #babydaddy and the other was #Illegalcar_racer. There were also semi-trends like, #Iangotcaught and #Ianinjail going around, but they weren’t as aggressive as the initial two trends.

Ian Renner must be the hottest director out there. Like literally I’m so speechless by this man’s abilities. One, he directs. He wrote songs for a movie. He is absolutely a hotty. And now, he is a street racer; that too, illegal? Like, how hot a man can be:

Ian; YES. #babydaddy #illegalcar_racer 

 | @Hollywood.owned 

I never thought that my life would come across something like this. Fuck! Check this meme out, and say we both aren’t in the same position!

[In the meme, there was a cartoon character of their world burning a paper which had, ‘Ian only directs’ burning down to ashes]

 |@Beloved.RyanGosling 

He looked pretty hammered. But let the man enjoy his life. What’s wrong with illegal racing? Just it’s illegal. LOL #illegalcar_racer 

 |@Mariah.Marrys.Joshua 

Heard there’s something new coming from the director. Let’s hope it’s not a fucking car sale or a racing car field. Because we expect movies, but boy imagine Ian with a child, and racing cars in the middle of the night. 

Must be my next fanfiction. Aahaha #babydaddy #ianrenner #attentionseeker #racingcars #illegalasf 

 Ian kept scrolling down and down until he finally found some more memes that were created originally for him. 

 /.\

A man was looking at the screen with a smile: *IAN RENNER’S name popped up!*

 His expressions changed entirely after seeing: *IAN has a baby!*

 /.\

 When everyone found out that Ian was already a father: *sad noises!*

 When everyone found out that Ian does illegal streetracing: *Cheers!*

 /.\

 Ian couldn’t hold it in anymore longer.

 ‘Some of this shit doesn’t even make sense…’ He huffed under his breath and took the tablet along himself to meet Mason knowing that if this sort of things continued, there’d be no in way that he’d get peace.  

-

 “Uncle, may I come in?” Ian asked loud enough for Mason to hear. 

 “Yeah! Ian!” 

 Mason’s loud voice was enough for Ian to gain the approval he wanted. 

 “Ian, have a seat,” Mason said and Ian sat.

 “Uncle, I think it’s time.” 

 Ian’s eyes were serious, and it showed from the way he spoke. Mason who was eating his submarine kept it away and leaned in closer to the table. 

 “It’s time for lunch?” Mason said and gave an odd look. 

 "Oh shit. I’m sorry I disturbed you-”

 “No, it’s all right. Tell me, what is it?” Mason asked without joking this time. 

“Well, it’s the media and public perception of my image. If I really think about it uncle, if I ever got any sort of a challenge while I was in the industry, we’ve always faced severe criticism from the media, unnaturally so. It could be due to how aggressive the audience and the media are. But, that seems unlikely, I can clearly say that there are a lot of people behind it,”

 ‘People’s names who shouldn’t be said’ Ian thought to himself. 

 “You’re right. And, what are we going to do about it?” Mason asked back. 

 “I was thinking, maybe we can buy shares of huge media companies. At least to have enough power to change or build stories up. As sly as it sounds, I want it to happen, and it would be easy to make deals with MSNBC, ABC news, SkyNews, Sun TV or HK,” Ian said firmly. 

 “I’ll make the arrangements within two days,” Mason said and nodding knowing that he was right. 

 “Honestly, enough is enough with all the rumors. I need to buy 20% shares from Nwitter as well,” Ian said making Mason raise his eyes up in surprise. 

“Wherever this spirit came from, I like it,” he said and smiled. “I’ll arrange, and let Murphy know the details about everything. You can join me for meetings as well, it won’t be much of a hassle, to be honest,” Mason said and took another sip from his drink. 

 “Yeah, okay,” Ian said and walked outside the office.

 [At SunFM - 6pm]

 “Welcome back, New Yorkers! It’s 6.02 in the evening, and you are now listening to Sun FM, your favorite radio show, with your favorite host, Jenna, and Sam! How is it going, Sam? This is the third time in the week that you’re wearing the same t-shirt! Are you sure, your wife didn’t kick you out of your house?” 

 “Ahahah…. Funny thing, not yet. If I did, well, I know your place is open, always. So, New Yorkers, today we have a weird deal breaker of the day, but I’m pretty sure Jenna and I are late to the party-

 Jenna: As always!

 Sam: As always!

 "Sam, I guess we just shouldn’t mention it. It’s always a pleasure to bring the news, at the latest possible time. But, after the entire news of Ian having a baby is around, the next thing you know is an article by Mr. Imraan is around the internet! With, of course, proof of Ian holding a helmet and winning a little trophy in street racing… Outside of Los Angeles!” 

Sam: Jenna, are you sure that, this is what we’re supposed to be doing right now? Talking about illegal street racing?

 Jenna: Not really, I have more exciting news! But the entire scenario was pretty popular in the internet. Memes were almost everywhere, and even the director, Ian Renner had reacted to some of them and he had talked about how it was just a one night thing. 

 Sam: I guess we shouldn’t jump to conclusions, but it is rather interesting in my opinion. Somehow, we have the biggest news of the week! ‘RED BALLOON’ movie is finally out! This is a production by Manetala Studios and was directed by Mr. Galon Ameer. What’s new in the movie according to Jade who starred…

 ….

 “Ian Renner? Is that true though?” a lady who was listening to the radio while eating her dinner in a small restaurant asked looking at her friend. 

 “Who knows, the young man is weird anyway. I don’t think the rumors are false about the kid being his,” the lady gulped down the last drop of beer that was on her glass and shrugged.

 “I heard it was proven that the kid is not his. And, Ian himself in my eyes is a kid, so what are the odds that he really isn’t a father?”

 “Events are in favor. He sleeps with every woman I heard.”

 “Hmm… Who are to blame? Kids this age…” The other lady tsked. 

 “Ah, but Home Alone was too good, and it was the only movie I watched that was directed by him.”

 “TOO BAD TO YOU, MARY! Every movie directed by Ian is good. If you’re more interested in such movies, I guess we’ll have to wait till the sequel is out! But… it’s funny how ever since he came to the industry people are talking only about the bad side!” the restaurant owner jumped into the conversation as they were his loyal customers. 

 Thus, that was how people had different images of the resident director, Ian Renner, which also was the hot topic of the night for the two ladies.
