Before leaving Damon had predicted she would be flying the very next day and just as he had said, she was leaving. She quickly forwarded her flight details to her husband, she wasted no time. If he wanted to spend some time with her before she traveled, it would make her happy. Jane could not help but think of what her life would have become if she had not come in contact with someone like Damon Miles. He was her strength, she could face Leslie and her cheating ex with so much confidence because she knew deep down they had been the ones to lose to her long before she started plotting to get back at them. She not only had a caring man but one who would do anything to see her smile from dust to dawn. Damon was sitting at the conference table when his phone beeped. He glanced over to it and it was from Jane. he needed not to excuse himself as the meeting was over and he was the only one left in the conference room. He quickly placed a call to Edward who was packing to get on his fligh
Jane had woken up from her nap and Damon was nowhere to be found, she quickly glanced over at the wall clock and it was past midnight. ‘’He should have returned by now’’ She had not intended to sleep for such a long time. She walked over to the bathroom to relieve herself when she noticed a suitcase close to hers. It was that of Damon, if this was here that meant he was over-rounding up on some work in his study. Jane knew he had not made use of the one in the room so as not to disturb her. She went in and did her business before stepping. She still felt so sleepy, that rather than going and disturbing him, she decided to go back to bed. She made a mental note to ask about her travel destination first thing in the morning. But what she had not anticipated was waking up to an empty room. His luggage was gone and the maid had confirmed he left when she was fast asleep. Jane was afraid to interfere in his work so she decided not to call. Her flight was in a few hours hence she headed
‘’They….?’’ Regina could not find words to finish the statement. Her reaction was rather pleasing to Pamela who watched in amusement. ‘’Yeah I know, I was shocked same as you when I found out.‘’ Regina quickly glanced over at her phone and typed some words then turned to Pamela and displayed a good number of sites all saying Damon Miles was single and very much available. ‘’How can they be married, I mean when did it happen?’’ every word that left her mouth was unfiltered. Regina did not just react. She has been her manager all this while and only thought she fooled around him. Now she almost digs her own grave. Who would want to get on the bad side of Damon Miles, staring at the ruthless king of the entertainment industry being so tender and caring towards Jane was enough to know Dave and Leslie were practically idiots. ‘’I know right, well let's say she got married on the same day she was to wed Dave, he had been so busy with his mistress that he postponed the wedding yet aga
Finally, the long flight was over, and they all left the plane together. On arrival, Kelly was already waiting. Dave practically ran into her arms like some 2-year-old kid. Kelly was not the type to be considered the main attraction. She looked nothing like her brother, with broad tiny legs and a slender waist, she could easily walk her way into the entertainment industry. Her dream was to pursue a career as an actress or a model, however, she did not grow to be the face the entertainment industry served hence she settled for managing those qualified. ‘’Oh hello there Jane, it's been a very long time since I heard from you’’ She did not go in for her usual hug which she had given her the few times they had met. Since she chose to settle for a handshake, Jane had no problem granting her wish. ‘’Indeed it has been a long time Kelly, hope you're doing well?’’ Jane asked, trying as much as she could to keep the conversation civil. ‘’’ Well I must say, work has been taking too much of
Kelly had arranged for a good dinner with Dave and Leslie. They were going to stay over for the entire trip. Leslie could not help but act weary of her. They've known each other for a very long time but not one had it because she was her brother's side piece. ‘’I am not totally in support of what the both of you did to Jane, but since you are one my brother has settled on, I will do my best to see you through’’ Leslie was satisfied, all she ever wanted was her support and recognition. ‘’Big sis, I feel bad for her and we did not intend to hurt her. But we all know the heart wants what it wants and she is not ready to forgive’’ Leslie has always portrayed herself as the victim. Playing the victim has always been her greatest card. ‘’I know that yes I do not agree with the steps you two took but I did not see I was happy with her as well. She should have done better regarding the last stunt she pulled.’’ Kelly sighed. Jane was a good model, to her she was the perfect match for Dave,
Regina stared at Jane with so much meaning. ‘’Jane, is it very clear your purpose has been served and they want you out’’ The message was loud and clear. ‘’Leslie and Dave are taking too much, how dare they want to get rid of you after using you to bring that slut over to Belgium? If not for one thing a well-deserved slap would be how I welcome them tomorrow’’ Pamela was furious, she did not like it as they used her friend at every given opportunity. While Pamela has worked with Jane for a good length of time, she has never gotten the chance to come in contact with Kelly. She had no idea of how scheming Kelly was or how controlling she was towards her artist and any artist in general. Jane was indeed right from the very start. Kelly liked controllers and she began to see her manifest it over Leslie. ‘’This is with the support of Dave and very little say from Leslie, but it is all the doing of Kelly… Pamela, I know how bad your temper is but for these very shoots, you will have to
Ever since the outburst of Jane, Mrs Carter has not been herself. She was still to look through the other artists' portfolios, given by Kelly but something within her wouldn't let it through. She felt she did need to and Jane was more than Kelly had mentioned. She quickly dialed her assistant who rushed in. ‘’Clara, I want everything and anything you can find on Jane, and also do book a venue for my lunch with Mrs Cobswell.’’ Clara rushed out in a daze. It was a busy time and Clara had barely gotten any meaningful rest. Lookious was at its busiest moments and every employee flight the stress cut through their bones. While models could not wait to begin shooting, employees like Clara couldn't wait for it to be over. She wanted to rest, her body craved it. When Jane and the others arrived at the house, Pamela was trembling in anger. She had expected Dave and his mistress to do something but not as vile as this one. Not only were they good at freezing Jane's jobs but they had not provi
‘’What are you talking about? Isn't she just some newcomer?’’ Mrs Carter asked, visibly panicking, she was dumbfounded, how could a newcomer know Miss Cobswell? She has never seen her friend so red from anger. ‘’What newcomer? I hope you treated her nicely for how you could. Do you know just how many companies are willing to work with her just at the mention of her name? Tell me who dares to call her a newcomer?'' Mrs Carter wished at this point the ground would open up and swallow her. How could Kelly have lied about something as important? If Jane was to be the best student of her friend, that means she did not fall under the newcomer category she was given. Indeed she had said she would regret it before the end of today. Well, she was already regretting her decision. ‘’You should be happy she is willing to sign with you. She is such a rare talent and I can proudly tell you she will do a wonderful job. More than anyone and it will be an even bigger hit’’ Mrs Carter could not brin
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
