2024-10-29 19:42:56Damon Miles’ assistant stood unmoved by the words of Jane, he was not only shocked by how brave she was but also proposing to a man. Damon turns his attention to jane. A petite figure, long slender legs.
“Good for modeling” he compliments her inwardly. He raises his eyes brow at her indicating she repeats herself.
“Your bride isn’t here, and my groom won’t be coming” it took her all her courage to remain standing infront of him without batting an eyelid. Damon takes off his sunglasses revealing a pair of deep blue eyes. This made him look even sexier, he continued staring at her intensely as if wanting to fish out the truth from her soul.
“Details” he turns to his assistant who quickly handed him the iPad he was looking into. He was swift and knew just how to do his job right. The assistant recognized Jane at first glance, she was the envy of so many and on the top hence it would have been very difficult not to know her since she was in the same industry with just a difference in the company.
He did a quick search on what the ex-model has been doing in the past two years and was indeed pleased. Damon goes through the details and nods slightly, he hands the iPad to his assistant.
“Let’s go” he takes her by the hand and walks her inside. He was not only known in the entertainment industry but all over the country and abroad, everything was carried out swiftly and soon the couple walks out.
Jane felt meeting Damon is the greatest luck she has encountered in her life for such a long time. She held her marriage certificate tight. She was no longer single, she was now a married woman with a fire of vengeance ready to burn down her ex to ashes.
“President Damon, may I have a word with you?” Jane asks. Damon puts back his sunglasses and leads the way to his car. Jane follows closely behind him not daring to walk fast. It was more like a servant trailing the steps of her master. After the got into the range rover, she looks up at him nervously.
“I wish to say thank you for accepting my request. If you need me for anything please do let me know” she fidgets with her fingers, this altitude of hers caught the attention of Damon, he understood that was not all she had to say so he kept quiet urging her to continue talking.
“I do have a small request to ask of you”
“Hmm” Damon nods his head. “I dont want our relationship out on the public for the time being if that’s okay with you. I want to take care of my private affairs, and I will be faithful and stay away from other men” she was straightforward with her request.
“I will give you 6 months to have your personal affairs sought out, a marriage trial of 6 months. Our marriage will be publicly announced after 6 months.” Jane noted in the approval
“Thank you” she genuinely felt grateful towards him, she nodded slightly at him and stepped out of the car. Damon’s assistant who has been listening to the couple from the front seat, looks at him from the review mirror, president are we heading to the company or the mansion?” he asked. They had to inform the old man about the marriage and also handle a couple of meetings set out for the day.
“Follow her” Damon knew Jane, he was a famous model and it was no doubt he knew her. He knew something must be off with the sudden marriage proposal.
“President” his assistant called making sure he heard him right. A pair of cold eyes stared back at him intensely. His assistant instantly regretted his words. He could feel him even with his sunglasses on. he has been working with Damon for so many years yet those set of cold eyes still makes him flinch for the first time.
Damon walks out of the car and walks to another car while his assistant drives away closely after Jane. Damon stare into space on his drive back to the office, he still remembered she had a love relationship with Dave Jones. He was the fall of her career. The ride home was a quiet one.
Jane did not talk nor did she dare to breathe, she could not believe what she just did. She had no idea where the courage came from. This was a new feeling and the fire of vengeance burned even harder. She is interrupted by a call from, she picks up the phone, and it’s Dave. how she wishes she could curse him and swear at him. She puts the phone on speaker.
“Babe” Dave’s voice echoes from the speaker of the phone.
“Yes,” Jane replied coldly, Dave knew she was angry and her anger was justified.
“I am sorry, I promise I will make it up to you, we will fly out for our honey mood next time” Jane smiles bitterly. There was no next time, she was already married.
“What’s wrong,” Jane asked again. Dave knew she knew him too well so he stopped beating around the bush.
“I know I said the last time it won’t happen again, however, Leslie is hurt and she can’t perform in the Galaxy Arts tonight,” Dave explains. Jane knew what was coming up.
“So let me guess, you want me to fill in for her yet again?” fat round tear balls fall from her eyes. He just missed their marriage and instead of being apologetic, he was having her fill in for his mistress.
“Babe, you know she is the star of the company, and we can’t disappoint. It’s a mask show and you just have to be present”
As always he was ready to give up on her than have his mistress suffer even a scratch, but not again. it had to stop at a point and since no one said when anytime is a perfect time.
“Okay,” Jane smiled bitterly.
“Everything is ready I love you”

Jane sits back in her car, trying to figure out what the hell she has been doing with her life all these years. Now it made more sense, she was now up and aware he has been using her and taking advantage of her all these years. But it all came to an end and the end was near and she was seeing it. She hits the engine and drives off, she is followed by Miles's secretary which she isn't aware of. Every news outlet in the country and abroad is broadcasting about the Galaxy ARTs festival. It is seen as a celebration to bring forth new gems in the industry and to make them known nationwide and internationally. This was looked upon by so many D-list models and Leslie was no exception. She could not afford to miss out on the chance of becoming a B-list model or being acknowledged as one. Dave sits close to Leslie trying to south out her pain. He is more relaxed, unaware of the dangers which were to happen in a couple of hours. Jane has always given him everything he has asked of her in the

Every other staff left the hallway leading to the models and dressing room while Nathan stayed behind to ensure everything went well. The door opens and Jane walks out in a slit dress, the same clothing which was meant to be worn by Leslie. It looked, even more, prettier on Jane than it had looked on Leslie when she did the fitting. “Miss Cowell, you ….you look breathtaking, however, I would like to point out you got the wrong dress.” Nathan could not hide the blush on his face seeing Jane in her dress. “I know, I love this one. Or don’t you want me to stand in for Leslie again?” “oh no…no miss Cowell. It hasn't gotten to that. I appreciate you going out of your way to help her at such a time.” “I feel comfortable in this dress so I wear it. I will have a mask on so why border?” Jane walked past a confused Nathan, he did not want to hear her angry at a point like this knowing very well, it was the last minute. The runway was filled with so many guests and models from other agenci

Everything seems to be going just how she wants it, heading back she gently pulls over the dress to reveal her slender legs, it was more of a flash. She inwardly prayed this attempt of hers will be enough to reveal who she really is. dave Continued searching online, on the Galaxy Gala, webpage, but none of the comments mentioned anything or compared Leslie to Jane which was a relief, it was only covered with pictures of the models but most especially Jane. she was the talk of the show and everyone was already speculating about her being the winner of tonight's event. He searched for a while to see if any of the comments mentioned her to be who she really is, but no one had said anything. Dave leans back on the chair with a heavy sigh. “Why are you so worked up? She has been out of the industry for quite

“And who says you are free to leave? my dear after causing so much trouble and as a once famous model, how dare you try to take away Leslie’s job? It all seems you are trying to take advantage of her being injured to rise back to fame” Everyone was stunned, yes they were aware Leslie was injured but seeing Jane replacing her not only makes sense but puts everything in its place. The reporters were not letting her leave, and she was getting question after question, unable to answer any, the crowd was getting even thicker making it very hard for her to breathe amidst everything. With the questions, came insults and the insults targeted her directly, they were fierce with their words and their looks did not look, friendly at all. “Leslie should be the spokesperson, not you….. that's her crown take it off” Jane was swiftly forced to withdraw as reporters surrounded her, some even pushed her at this moment adding to the insults. “I am going to sue Davious Entertainment, I wanted Leslie

It was clear to all Jane was digging her own grave but Damon was not going to stand by the side and let her fall without helping her up halfway through the tunnel. It was his own little way of showing his wife, I've got your back no matter the circumstances. Everyone who had spoken badly and left bad comments about her in the present and online began to delete and retrieve their words. They could afford to destroy, Jane within the blink of an eye, but they couldn't not afford to go on the bad side of Damon. His company was not only the biggest in the entertainment industry but also internationally. Gain’s designer turn to Damon and said with a little smile, trying so much to hold back her tears. “I am so sorry for my outburst and incompetence sir Miller” She was trying so much to hold her tears that the veins on her forehead were popping up, clearly visible and capturable by the cameras.

The couple drove in absolute silence, Jane had so much going through her mind that she dared not say out loud. Amidst the chaos of the day, Damon has put a little something in place for her, he was not sure of her taste hence it was nothing particular. She thought for a while and finally spoke up. “I know you want to take me out of this, but it is my mess and I want to clear it up alone. It does hurt and it will not bring me any satisfaction if they are let off the hook so quickly and easily. I want you to be in the dark, let me rise up and defend my name.” Damon could not help but admire the woman sitting right next to him. He did not object to her, he knew just how much she was hurting. No woman marries a man out of spite she must really be bottling so much in there. “I'm so honored you did not reveal our relationship, I know how important you are within this circle and things will definitely take a new turn if people should come to know you are my husband.” she was interrupted b

Damon and Jane got home in no time, the traffic in the district area wasn't as bad as that of center town. She was amazed at what her eyes could see. It wasn't just beautiful but breathtaking. A quiet neighborhood, well guarded and secured, the gate guard gave a simple bow to them when they drove by. Jane could not resist the urge to roll down the windows and let the air hit her in the face. It felt so good to be free, thinking of how her life has been in the last years, only fueled her anger even more. He felt good seeing her all relaxed and free-minded despite her Present situation. Damon soon pulled up to the driveway of a huge mansion, well-designed and spacious from the outside, she could see the extending garden from a mile away and the turn which led to the backyard. She stepped out with him, a maid came forward taking whatever was in the car and leaving without a sound. “Welcome home” she heard him wipers right below her neck as he pulled her in for a hug, to others this was

Jane could feel herself getting wet, with every inch he took, her breath seemed to seize ten times faster. “I will take my bath” She runs into the bathroom, and Damon smiles sheepishly behind her. He knew he had to take things slow with her, however, with the way she looked and how beautiful she was, it was going to be a hard journey. The phone goes off, right close to him, he takes a glance at the caller ID and it reads Dave. He picks up the phone and places the call on the loudspeaker. “Jane, what have you done? Where the hell are you? How can you make such when you know Leslie can't handle stress at the moment? Jane for fuck sake, she is your best friend and has health issues at the moment do you want her to die?” Damon listened carefully, he so much wanted to smash this bastard in the face however he had to play cool.

Everyone was gone as Dave was busy with getting things ready for Leslie and Kelly was rather focused on finding a newcomer who looked more like Jane and with similar features. They were going to use Jane to promote the new commercial. But while everyone was looking out for each other, Leslie was rather in a world of her own. Her paranoia had gotten to the highest level. She wanted fame at every cost and her words were enough to make Nathan stand at a freezing point for minutes not sure of how to react. ‘’Book me an appointment after the night Galaxy event, I can't have anyone getting to know of this baby”’ ‘’what?’’ That was all Nathan could bring out of his mouth. His brain suddenly left him. Secretly he was envious of Jane, she had managed to reach great heights without the help of Dave. To top it up she has not only succeeded in standing tall and moving ahead but also done so with all the troubles Leslie and Dave have put her through. Nathan did not see the same path for Leslie

Jane had to wake up alone. Damon was long gone but not without leaving a note for her. On the note he made sure to inform her of who would be walking her down the red carpet while also letting her know the relationship of Pamela and Edward may be none on that day. While Edward and Pamela were both only employees to Damon and Jane in the eyes of the public, they were more than that in private. Edward and Pamela knew of the risk they were taking and as such were more than happy to let Damon know ahead of time so as not to cause an even bigger problem for Jane. Jane stayed all day at home going through her page, it had been a while since she last logged in and her fans were more than happy to have her. While they all asked the same question, if she was attending the Galaxy event, Jane was wise enough to give short answers and only mention she would be busy that night shooting for Lookious magazine. Her fans felt disappointed but supportive. While Jane was live catching up with her

While Jane had given up on asking Pamela where they were headed and just sat in the car patiently. Unlike if it would have been another which would have made her worry, Jane was more relaxed as she closed her eyes to get some rest. She still had some shootings of Mrs. Carter to take care of before the Galaxy night event and knew devious entertainment would be on her case to make sure she was not attending. Once the car came to a halt, Jane opened her eyes not sure why Pamela had brought her to her biggest shopping mall in the country in broad daylight. She was scared her fans would recognize her. ‘’Don't worry, I had this prepared for you”’ Pamela tells her handling a bag. Jane had more than one question in the end but chose not to ask. She quietly slipped to the back of the car and put on the jean shorts and crop top with a facemask and a hoodie. The look was something very new to her as it had been years since she dressed as such. She was more of a fan of modest dressing but see

While Jane walked out, the words of Dave made him stop in her tracks but not turn. ‘’Why don't you take a break and revert from the path of vengeance then things will be even better. You will drown yourself’’ Jane could only carry her lips up. Since they knew she was going to drown, there was no need to ask for help. ‘’As I drown I want you to do nothing but watch, do not save me for you don't have the capabilities to do so’’ She turned her head slightly to the trash and her torn invitation had still not been taken out. Was it revenge she wanted or fairness? All she wanted was for them to give her what was hers but they have always chosen to double-cross her. How can he call her actions revenge, when he had never treated her with any fairness? Jane did not stop in her tracks as she went ahead. She felt it was rather amusing how they were all pretending to be looking out for her now when they were certainly the ones going to drown. Dave of all people was going to drown in the water

Jane and Pamela had a great time just watching Damon and Edward go about with their work since no one was allowed to say a word or spread rumors, Jane was even more relieved as she lay on the couch and watched her man work. When it was time to head home, Edward drove Pamela who was visibly tired from all the work she had to take care of during their shooting. While Jane and Damon drove home, he glanced through the biggest event in the entertainment industry which was upcoming. ‘’So you and Leslie would be attending, have you chosen an outfit or do you need help with it?’’ Damon asked Jane who turned to him with a perplexed expression. ‘’What are you talking about? Where would I go be going with Leslie?’’ Jane asked not sure if she understood what her husband was hinting at. There was no way she would be willing to share a stage with Leslie again as she had done with Lookious. She was aware of how great she was and Leslie did not stand the chance to be even a backup of hers. If D

Once Leslie and Dave were at the office, Kelly was quick to present them with the invitations. “‘Why is that of Jane in the trash?’’ Leslie had noticed the invitation of Jane was not only in the trash but also torn. ‘’An upcoming artist who is too proud of who he dragged and will make it even easier for her to fall. Dave now that Leslie is doing better, I think we have a better chance’’ Kelly could not hold back herself. She was so obsessed with controlling others and saw this as a chance to step on Jane like she should have done long ago when they were in Belgium. ‘’What do you want me to do? She is the most earning artist the company has now and it is going to be difficult to convince the board to lay her low”’ Dave squeezed his hands together not sure of what Kelly was hinting at. “‘She may be the top earner, but if they get to know she has plans of leaving I think they would reconsider and go for an artist who would be here for an even longer time and also invest more into th

Despite everything Leslie did and was willing to do, not once did Nathan think of judging her. She was his employer and he understood what she was going through. While her biggest rival was having a blast in her career, Leslie's was falling at a rather questionable rate. As they drove home, Leslie looked through the window trying hard to forget, but how could she forget the hands of Mr Will on her body? She felt so disgusted and angry. ‘’I am doing all this because you've pushed me to the edge but I will get back, just you wait’’ Leslie clenched her fist so hard her knuckles turned white. While she was rather dreaming of taking her revenge on Jane and putting herself in the way of even more scandals, Leslie was unaware everything she was just doing had only made it easier for Jane to target her. Once they got home, she was quick to head for the bedroom stripping off every piece of cloth as she stepped naked into the bathroom. Leslie cried in silence as the water failed to watch

While Jane went straight to her seat, Pamela noticed Dave walking right straight to them. Pamela was worried but Jane told her to stand down. ‘’What do you want again? I thought we were over?’’ Jane asked as soon as Dave was close enough to hear her. ‘’How can we be over when every time you sit you are always thinking of a thousand ways to crush Leslie and me?’’ Jane did not want to but he was forcing her. It was not her who was thinking of ways to crush the other but the way around. If they had not stood in her way there was no way they would have gotten to the stage they are right now. ‘’Dave, to you I am the devil, you were the one to suppress me and cancel my jobs, you were the same person to push me to the wall, back in Belgium and now you say I think of ways to crush you two? I've said it before and I will always say it. I do not step on those who do not step on me first.’’ Jane had no more words for him as she walked out to enjoy the scenery of the night. The noise and th

As everyone, cleared the way and continued chatting in small groups, Kelly turned her focus to Dave who still did not get why she had not announced she was to be the new manager of Jane as they had planned. ‘’Jane would leave, devious entertainment if I should announce taking over as her manager. Dave, I have not worked with Jane for a long time but I have a little perception of the type of person she is and I can tell you this is not all she has up her sleeves. Why don't you go see her and let's hear what she has to say”’ Kelly held on so tight to her wine glass. She never would have thought Jane would find out ahead of time and threaten her so much. Dave was quick to head towards Jane who had a smile all along. Pamela had joined her by the time he got to her, since Damon had offered to drop her off, there wasn't a need for Pamela to come to pick her up, hence they had agreed on coming separately. Once Dave got close, Pamela was quick to stand in front of Jane protectively. ‘’ wh
