"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

coolness. 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

There was a pause given by Bryan for them to replenish each other's oxygen supply in their lungs. They should not run out of breath just because of the meeting of two lips that refused to separate. Their eyes had already said many things without their mouths needing to say them. There was still a trace of their closeness left because of the saliva thread between them, slightly noticeable."Are you... kidding me?" asked Celine once she found a bit of sanity. Although her heart was no longer beating normally, at least the brain she had could still be used to think clearly. Although..."What part of me is the middle of a joke?" asked Bryan with a gaze that only focused on the girl in his arms. I don't know how the man did it, but now their position was much more protected behind the balcony's side wall. The original place where Celine had spent a moment. Although a little hesitant, Bryan's hand reached out and rubbed Celine's cheek, which seemed to be blushing.Fro

Jacob, who had been driving and trying to break the ice, felt that all his efforts were useless. Celine remained silent, only talking as needed, preferring to play the cell phone as if it was more fun than anything else. Including the presence of Jacob beside her."What ... are you sick, honey?" Jacob asked, glancing at Celine who chose to close her eyes."No," Celine replied briefly. "Instead of worrying about my fine condition, wouldn't it be better for you to pay attention to the speed of this car? Don't let anything get out of control and give me a bad reputation."Jacob laughed. "Well, that's the Celine I know. Talks a lot."Celine's eyeballs rolled in annoyance. She closed her eyes again on purpose. Putting the highest limit on the closeness of the two of them. She had had enough of pretending to be the future wife of Jacob Desmond. The son of someone who was about to enter politics but the support given was really great.Celine could feel th

"How was the banquet?" asked Karen as she carried Celine's bag. Although it wasn't heavy, Karen forced herself to carry it for Celine. In the end, the model relented and let her assistant carry the bag for her. They waltzed through the lobby area at a light pace.Celine occasionally returned the greetings directed at her. The tail of her eye caught sight of the special staff covering her presence at the hotel as part of the promotion. She had not received any reports of an increase in visitors or guests coming to this hotel as a result of her arrival in Manhattan.Perhaps the video of Celine spending time at the hotel would be broadcast a month before the annual SEO Fashion Show. Justin plans to use the hotel's main hall as the venue for the big event. Hence, during Celine's stay at the hotel, there are many benefits that she gets and feels."As you know, there are many important people attending." Celine sighed softly. "If you had come with me, I wouldn't have

"I didn't expect you to see me personally." Grace put down her teacup slowly. The look in her eyes from the moment she entered the cafe that gave off a cozy and calm atmosphere, was due to Celine's request to be provided with enough privacy like this. Grace had to admit that Celine's taste had risen to a fairly high level. Perhaps it was the association as a professional photo model whose name could not be taken lightly, that forged Celine to such an extent."Was it a mistake?" asked Celine casually. The spaghetti carbonara that was the choice of lunch this time was quite appetizing. The creamy sauce mixed with ground meat tingled in her mouth. It made her want to finish her portion immediately.In between Celine's filming activities, she invited Grace to meet her. It was not difficult to get the woman out of her activities. Celine was sure that the horrendous news this morning was enough for Grace to be in this place."No." Grace looked at Celine while consider

"Andrew is really making spectacular news!" squealed Giselle once their phone line was connected. It was a little difficult to reach Celine today when she wanted to gossip about the news. Unfortunately, the time difference and the tight schedule between them were the biggest obstacles.Fortunately, Karen is always available. Letting her know when Celine's schedule was over so that Giselle could adjust when to check in with each other. Giselle's activities today were not as busy as last week. Just a photo shoot for the latest catalog and finishing a design that was delayed for a long time. There are so many activities that drain her time and energy."I didn't expect it to be this exciting." Celine laughed cheerfully. She got into the pick-up car which quickly drove away from the set. "Karen, have you made sure there's nothing missing after the last session?" she asked her assistant. There should be no excess problems, especially with the parts. Before the promotional ad

Celine's arrival was welcomed by many servants. They came in droves not just to welcome her, but to make sure that the granddaughter of Edgar Langham, who became a famous model, was really in front of their eyes. During the banquet that night, not many people saw Celine clearly. And Celine's arrival at that time successfully became the talk of the whole luxury house inhabited by many servants.Not without reason the house has more servants than the owner. Apart from the owner not wanting to bother himself with cleaning floors, bedrooms, or cooking, as well as doing other housework. So for one field of work, there is a special servant who does it. Typical people with abundant money are like that.And Celine has felt in a position that always gets the best service."Welcome, Miss Celine," greeted one of them.
