“‘What is the meaning of this Mrs Carter, how can you cancel Leslie just without an explanation?’’ Kelly roared. How could cookies be going back on their words when they were so close to signing the contract?

‘’I do understand your frustration with what happened with Jane yesterday however I promise you she won't be a problem and as we speak she will be leaving back home tonight’’ Kelly was panicking and was visible all over her. She has never been the type to beg, but that was what she was doing.

‘’Is she a newcomer? Kelly all I had asked for was the truth you chose to make me look like a fool’’ Mrs. Carter sneered. She did not want the family drama affecting his company more than it was already.

‘’I. I, ‘’’ Kelly choked on her words. She had no way of defending herself by saying Jane was indeed a newcomer. At this point, there was nothing to say.

‘’Kelly, you are a friend I have held close for a long time. I wouldn't have thought you would do such or is this how you treat your f

    Jane was intentionally taunting Kelly and everyone could see me. Kelly’s ears were bright red from embarrassment. Indirectly Jane was telling her, I won't be controlled by you, I can't be controlled by you. “‘Jane do not push your luck?’’ Kelly tightened her fist. She wanted to appear cool, but with every word of Jane, it was even more difficult to do that. ‘’Why? Are you scared of something Kelly? You had been the one to tell Mrs Carter I was not capable, how could I not be capable? I have not only been to many countries but I have also worked with Chanel and Louis. I have been on the Paris runway and that was done with my capabilities, so if I am not qualified and can be tagged as a newcomer then Leslie is not worth walking even in my shadows. Not to mention this is her very first shoot out of the country, yes I know all about it, she has always been traveling but not for work, you made all that happen so why dont you pull some of those strings right now?’’ Jane was not afraid t

    When the eavesdroppers heard Kelly’s reply they could not help but jump up in joy. Mrs Carter has not gone far with Clara. The joy of Pamela and Regina said it all. Whatever outcome Jane was aiming at was not now hers. In all her life in the entertainment industry, she has met just one person with so much intelligence. Yes, it was none other than the big boss of Damon Entertainment. To see a woman stand up so high and mighty made Mrs Carter feel so bad for how she had treated her to begin with. Indeed Miss Cobswell was right to say she was her best student. Who wouldn't want her as the best when she did everything so well? Now the odds were no longer in their favor. They had come in ready for contract signing but instead, they were served. The same way they had served Jane on the very first day. Regina could not help but be so proud to be called her manager. Not only had they been misled from the first day, but her image was tarnished before the client but all that did not stop Jan

    Leslie stared at Jane confidently. The man she wanted did not only hate her but there won't be any more chances in the future. She was indeed pleased. However that does not seem to be the case, it was all in Leslie's head. Having someone as mighty as Damon Miles was too much already of an accomplishment for Jane. She did not need anything more and even if she was forced to choose another, it would never be Dave in a billion years. But Leslie was not aware of such, jane stared at the cheating family before stepping into her car and driving away.‘’Time is something you do not have’’ Leslie read Jane's lips as she muttered word after word. It was not meant for the hearing of others hence she had said it very low. Leslie turned to Dave who was too focused on what Kelly was showing him on her phone. She suddenly felt cold. How something about Jane's words scared her. Yes, no one aside from Nathan, Kelly, and Dave knew she was pregnant. She not only needed the award as Jane thinks but sh

    When Damon and Jane were alone within the enclosure of their room, she pulled out the contract and handed it over. They had prepared it in advance, but it was all on if. It was a big gamble to think they fell for it did not worry Damon. ‘’Just as days go by and times we can't control or change the outcomes of events, so is the entertainment circle. They won't be giving you control for a long time, at least that is what they are thinking. Kelly should not only be hoping for a comeback for Leslie but also for devious entertainment. She would do all it takes to see you go down’’ Damon words were calm. Dave and Leslie have never wanted to let Jane go in the past and now are no different. ‘’I also feel the same way. The news online is more like a rap battle, everyone is voting. Every job I have ever taken is now the talk on all lips. They can't help but compare us, the only difference being my legs. While others say I was not fit to be on stage with her’’ Jane did not fear the rumors.

    The battle had finally begun. Jane woke up as Regina Pamela got her ready, they chose her style of clothes very casual. Since Leslie was the one over-hyped, Jane did not want to intentionally seek out attention on herself. She wanted Leslie to have all this time for herself. It was her way of helping her maybe for old time's sake. She was going to stay in the back so she killed herself just well enough to realize something can not be gained overnight. They arrived at Davious ' site where the shooting had to be carried out. Since they were in the middle of April, the weather was cold and windy. Jane had a fur coat over, she would have to stay much longer in the cold hence, Pamela made sure to cover up as soon as they got a chance to get her some warmth. ‘’Wow, look over there, Leslie and her crew are here and they are going all out for her sake’’ Regina was first to notice the team of hired reporters. The very professional makeup artist who was already attending Leslie. Everything t

    Leslie smiled, leaning and giving him a quick kiss. She was very much aimed at taunting Jane since she had mentioned she climbed up to his bed, she might as well show her how much gain she had for climbing on the right bed. ‘’You know everything will be okay,'' Leslie tells Dave after their short shared romantic moment. Leslie turns to Jane with a proud smile on her face. ‘’I will try not to disappoint’’ Jane tells him with a cheeky smile. Her words were not entirely true nor were the lies. She was indeed willing to put up with Leslie and do her best to cost them another scandal, but it also meant she would not disappoint in giving them the result they did not want if Leslie stepped hard on her toes. Dave stared at Jane intensely but he still could not figure out what was on her mind. A few months back he would have boasted to anyone how much he knew her, but the woman standing before him was not the same as a few months back. She was very good at masking her thoughts and the calme

    ‘’Leslie trust is not the issue here. I want you to understand I do believe in and trust you. But this battle is such that you can't afford to lose’’ Dave's words carried so much authority and determination. With all she had just said losing shouldn't be an option. ‘’I know I can do it, you don't have to worry all the time. Jane is no match for me’’ Leslie was proud, she had the confidence Kelly had mentioned she was missing, however looking at her situation one could tell the confidence was indeed wrongly placed. While Jane was getting ready, her phone rang. Regina and Pamela quietly excused her after seeing the name on the screen. ‘’Hello,’’ Jane answered casually through the phone. She was on set and Damon understood she could not address him the way she pleased. She still had a long way to go before telling the world she had been taken by him. ‘’I saw the interview and I must say I love my wife,” Damon praised her. His ways of doing things were rather too different. Jane flushe

    Leslie flaunted her beauty, no one could resist praising her and giving her good compliments, she was shining as the stars of the night. Everything Was just perfect, whereas Jane was not the same. She sat so quietly making some forget she was even there. She did not see the need to talk or hold small chats. Leslie was not the same, she held long conversations with literally everything and everything. It was even easier for the staff to term her the easygoing one amongst the both of them. While Jane had no emotion on her face, they could not say if she was happy or just proving arrogant, but of course, they all went with she was just arrogant. ‘’Miss, Leslie since you appear to be done, why don't you join the photographer and have your solos taken first?’’ the photographer's assistant said, ushering her in. She was a young lady of better 19 or 20. She had good command over both the French and English language which was impressive for someone of her age. Leslie stood up giving Jane a

    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
