The next morning, Maxin published Ian's point of view based on what people were doing and sharing on social media. And the responses were quite the opposite of what they had expected.

@Maximoni.ltk

Ian Renner is a true icon! He made me break up with my boyfriend… But on the brighter side, he also talks about how relationships are different. Still, won't take the man back, be happier than ever!

@Lewd.Lulu.9

Been in the same toxic relationship for seven years. After watching Kiara, I realised that she and I always chose each other, and we were actually in love—to the point it became toxic. Ian clarified this and thank you for that! Still not gonna get back together #period

@Mariah.Mariah.O.Oh

What Ian says is true. As a relationship therapist, I can assure you that this holds the certificated truth. It is also good that he clarified the message he sent to the public. Because I've seen over fifty notifications of breakups. #KiaraBreakups

@Limaiah

I've met Ian and Raelynn irl once. I don't know about the media portrayal, but they looked happy to be with each other. So I believe everyone else should stop breaking up and posting crying videos all over the internet. Wouldn't look good if your parents found out.

@Brad Crutchfield ✔

Hello, everyone. I'm Brad, the director of Kiara. As I can see, the team and I've agreed to say something here. My message from the movie was just to show how pure, meaningful, powerful and very heartfelt a hint of love can be. And it meant or showed no one to harm their private relationships. But after answering so many questions from the media, I realised that people got the wrong context.

It is fine to take an example from a movie, made out of fictional characters and a fictional storyline. But it is not okay to choose your relationship based on that. So, please, do not misunderstand the director's AKA my intentions.

Thank you! And glad everyone enjoyed Kiara! #Kiara

Even after the post that was shared by Ian, people still argued about their relationship statuses and what romance meant to them. And since Ian portrayed the lead role, people had admitted how his words were true and how genuine he was to the world.

On the other hand, Brad's words held more authority in people's minds. He knew that as the director of the movie, people would believe more in what his intentions were.

And just like how he had been preaching the same thing to the media, his post on Nwitter trended for the rest of two weeks.

[Brad's studio - CA]

"Next month it'll be 100 days of shooting, and after three weeks, the movie Kiara will be screened. What do you feel about it?" The question was pointed towards Ian and Brad Crutchfield who sat next to Natalie, who played Kiara.

"May I go?" Natalie asked jokingly.

"Yes, please!" Ian replied.

One thing people had complimented the movie a lot was for how good of chemistry they had on set.

"I can proudly say that it was a very nervous ride for me. Ian Renner is a very well-known, talented director in the industry. Although I've an experience, the setting made things very… unsettling. But-"

"But?"

"But working with Ian was a wonderful experience. And it turns out to be something even greater than I had expected," Natalie said and gave a smile.

She looked back at Ian and winked at him from the eye that the audience didn't see. But Brad caught Natalie winking.

Ian smiled back at Natalie and focused on the presenter.

"Ian Renner, is it true that all the girls want a boyfriend like you?" the interviewer questioned and looked at the camera.

The interview was taking place in Brad's studio. And in Ian's schedule, it was the last interview he had to attend that was on the contract.

"Hahaha… Apparently… But, Sean Davidson in the movie was a bit toxic for Kiara at first, but Kiara played a big role in changing him. And if we're not romanticising and being honest here, I could say that a woman should not always try to change men. Because that would only lead to something you don't want. But yes, to answer your question—-sorry, I sidetracked. To answer your question, the internet wants me these days."

Kiara and Brad laughed at his statement.

"Sir Crutchfield, the last question was highly asked. This movie seemed personal because many youths grasped it thinking that it is, is it true?"

Brad's elbow was on the side hand of the couch as he thought for a moment with his hand on his chin.

His eyes were on the camera as he paused before answering. "Well, if I'm being honest, yes. And no."

"Yes and no? W-what does that mean?"

"Well, this concept of love, the characters are from a real-life experience. But the character traits and everything else that was a bit too beyond believable level, they're not. The characters from my experience are way different. But as I mentioned a lot of times, my thought simply was to give a good idea about what love is."

"Thank you so much for the interview. With that, we're looking forward to seeing more from Mr Crutchfield and Mr Renner."

With that, the interviewer and the channel started packing their things.

Ian, Brad and Natalie's microphones were getting off.

"Mr Crutchfield, ah, it was one heck of a media op," Ian said, mentioning how hard it was for him to play the field as an actor. He had gone countless days without sleeping just to prepare for interviews, or fly across the country.

"I'm glad it was you, Ian. Couldn't have done this with anyone else. And you can finally focus solely on your next project."

Ian nodded, agreeing with him.

Although the hype was low for Kiara, Ian still had interviews that he had signed up for. But with the last interview, it was the end for Kiara and all the promotions. Nevertheless, Ian was about to turn a new page in his life.

A/N; I checked all your suggestions carefully and make the adjustments with the Star Wars first movie. Thanks :) And I'll increase the word count in the upcoming chapters! The pace will pick up again as there are lots of more movies to make + I'll end the Goofy villain arc after Star Wars. That's it! Give up suggestions for anything, I'll be reading through comments!
