Being at the peak of her career allows Celine Princessa to freely pursue her goal; the destruction of Desmond's family. She didn't care about the label that would continue to be attached to her forehead; the home wrecker. All she cared about was that Desmond knew she still existed. "Are you sure you're doing this?" The man's forefinger played on Celine's seductively exposed shoulder. From the reflection of the mirror in front of them, Celine smiled. The model said, "I'm sure. But can I ask for conditions?" The man slightly twisted Celine's body. There was a melodious squeal from Celine's sexy lips full of temptation. also, a crisp laughter that made his heart tremble even more. Desiring. Because it's been a month since they met. He made sure; this room would be full of sighs from both of them. "Whatever you want, Baby." "Turn off your cell phone, Uncle. I don't like your wife calling." The man laughed. "That's it?" "That's all." Unfortunately, Celine had no idea that she was trapped. In a love that burned with passion and also shouldn't exist. Where that feeling made Celine feel alive and no longer empty. How will Celine get through this, when she falls under the spell of a married man and is suddenly selfish about wanting to possess her?
View Morecoolness. And most importantly, the burden and dislike for what she was facing, was reduced considerably.After meeting Bertha earlier, with a lot of small talk and a shy admission that she was indeed the future wife of Jacob Desmond, she was finally able to take some time alone. Away from the hustle and bustle of the mini banquet. Even though it was wrapped in a dinner that was quite indulgent because a famous chef was lined up to take care of this banquet event, the real core of the banquet this time was political interests.Also... business.Politics without business is like a steak without the original seasoning when the steak is served. That's why, at this banquet, most of the guests were from the government. Some Ambassadors from other countries were just announcers of the cooperation between countries and businessmen who had the power to steer the economy behind them.Celine was reminded of the talk about Grace Langham, who arrived half an hour aft
"You do have that starry-eyed charm, darling." Jacob couldn't take his eyes anywhere else. Ever since he picked Celine up at the hotel lobby, his eyes were completely unblinking looking at Celine from toe to head."You should have realized a long time ago." Celine grinned. Accepting Jacob's helping hand that greeted her. "You don't have to bother bringing flowers like this." He also received a red rose that was arranged quite beautifully. "I just knew you could be romantic."Jacob laughed happily. "A lot has changed between us during our absence, right? I guess I have a lot to learn about the new you."Celine tugged the corner of her lips slightly. "I don't need to learn about you, Jacob. If there are any new attitudes that I've noticed since we've been back together, I'll take it as a process of maturation."Jacob chuckled. "You're right." He extended his hand to Celine. "Come on, let's not be late. The ambassador is a bit of a pain in the ass if any of
Cristine's taste for fashion had not been forgotten by Celine. In fact, she had learned a lot from the woman about mixing and matching the cut of dresses that suited her body. Unfortunately, Cristine was also an annoying person when it came to making requests of the people around her. Celine used to consider it a normal thing to do because of the position they had.But as time went on, Celine realized that it was not part of a good attitude."I think I just wanted to wear a simple dress," Celine said, making sure there was nothing wrong with the dress she was wearing. Black was the choice Celine immediately requested once several dresses were shown to her."I think the simple one you want will definitely stun a lot of people." Lisa, the person who was asked to accompany and help Celine prepare for the party tonight, said with a sparkling look in her eyes. She matched some of the beautiful jewelry in her hand one by one in case there was something that suited the girl.Lisa herself had
One thing that Celine had missed amongst all the rather suffocating schedule. The dinner with the Ambassador where most of the guests were influential businessmen in Manhattan, as well as some government officials who had authority in many matters."I just remembered that event." Celine tapped her forehead with a puzzled look."Why are you worried? I've already prepared your dress and everything for you to attend the event." Karen looked at Celine with astonishment."On the same day, Jacob invited me to attend an equally important meeting." Celine rested her head on the dining table. Her eyes glazed listlessly at the dishes in front of her. "Both events are very important and... gosh, why do they have to coincide?"Just as Karen was about to encourage her, the bell on the door of the hotel unit where they were temporarily staying rang. Making both of them stare at each other."I didn't order anything. the laundry was also delivered last night," Karen informed before being questioned f
Celine gulped down the water in her mineral bottle rather hastily. Several times her foot tapped impatiently on the floor she was standing on. She also sighed several times as she endured the frustration that had plagued her throughout the shooting process for this shoot.She had been waiting for this day to come because the filming process that would be carried out, mostly contained scenes for her. Celine has practiced a lot about some of the expressions and scripts requested. Although it looks haphazard, Celine never considers her job a trivial job. She needs a lot of concentration while doing this job.But all the fun she was waiting for ended up being annoying like this."Is it still a long time to set up the camera?" asked Celine, who was now sitting leaning on the chair provided for her, in the room that was specially provided for the models and people involved in the process of making this promotional video.Usually, Celine doesn't mind if she has to wait because of technical d
"I didn't expect you to pick up my call."Celine laughed at the voice on the other end. "In that case, how about I cut the connection?""You're breaking my heart," joked the male voice on the other end. Which made Celine sink into laughter even more."How's the Manhattan air tonight?""You want to find out?" Celine chose a cup of Jasmine tea as her companion for the evening. Not forgetting the sweet buns, she had bought just for her before she went back to the hotel. Karen was waiting for her in the lobby with a scowl on her face. Complaining that Celine had been out for so long, she froze in her tracks.The complaint was met with a cheerful laugh by Celine, while Jacob gave Karen a displeased look."Why should Celine have to wait anyway? She's an adult, free to do whatever she likes," Jacob said with a tone of emphasis. The aura of hostility between them was thick. Which made Celine actually welcome the excitement. At least their debate became entertainment for Celine."I don't need
Grace leaned back in her oversized chair. Several files regarding the financial statements of the small company she managed were scattered there. They didn't attract much attention because she didn't really need the details of the reports. The company she owned was just a tool to spend the large amount of money she managed behind her leadership as one of the big companies working with the government.Including the central government's project on infrastructure development that was being carried out.But his eyes were focused on the CCTV layer which he had watched the footage twice. There was nothing strange except for the figure of Celine's assistant who seemed silent, standing in the same position, as if waiting for whatever it was, Grace was very curious. While the other part, did not show anything except when behind the wall where her niece's assistant was waiting, Celine's figure came out while grimacing.“Why can't I see the CCTV footage in this room?
The night air was cool for those walking along the banks of Battery Park. The lights around the street were brightly lit and the occasional hubbub of street users made Celine pay attention to them. Dressed in a loose T-shirt with calf-length pants and a wide brimmed hat, she looked like any other casual visitor enjoying the evening here.“You haven't changed much about your taste in spending time together,” Jacob said with a laugh. He pulled Celine slightly as someone else almost nudged her.“Really?” asked Celine with a soft laugh. Trying to release the grip of Jacob's hand that was still there.“Am I not allowed to hold your hand?”“That's not it,” Celine said with a grin. “I'm not used to being close to other people. You know, our relationship ended a long time ago and it took some adjustment from me about this status.”Jacob nodded in understanding. “Okay.” He let go of her
Steak and cola, two things Celine loved to accompany her in a state of excitement. Ah, no. Not only when she was happy to be able to enjoy a meal like this but sometimes, the menu, which was easily found in some of the leading restaurants in Manhattan, accompanied Celine when she was upset. But this time, Celine ate it with great joy.A few shopping bags are already by her side, as is Karen, who faithfully accompanies Celine wherever the model goes. Except inside the boutique where Celine was engaged in a conversation with Sella. Actually, Karen was curious as to how Celine would subdue that damn insolent woman.But seeing Sella coming out of the boutique with a bent look and a hurried walk, and Karen assumed that the woman was in the middle of holding back the surge of anger in her chest, made Karen believe that Celine always knew how to make her opponents submit.At least, Karen was satisfied to see that Sella was no longer acting so much. Let's hope so.
