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
Dave came back just a minute after leaving. Jane and Leslie both turn simultaneously towards him. ‘’The next shot will have both of you in it. Jane, I expect you not to cause problems and the same goes for you Leslie’’ Dave warned both ladies sternly. ‘’Of course, Jane had been the one causing all the problems so I will surely keep an eye on her,’’ Leslie replied arrogantly. Dave did not like the attitude he was getting from Jane. She was quiet throughout and wouldn't spare him a word. He had expected her to say something after seeing them together or have sought some reaction but nothing came. She rather turned to the Makeup artist asking for some stuff he was careless about. He was enraged. She had said she loved him, she was ready to marry him a few months ago and now seeing him with another woman did not make her react at all. Dave could not help but question himself. had he been the one using her or could it have been the other way around? Jane was fast rising and so was her
Jane and Leslie continued with the shots. It took a good number of posts and captured closure for them to be finished.Once they were done, Leslie hung around and took every praise showered on Jane by the crew. She did not understand French and hence could not tell every word said by the crew and the photographer was not for her but for Jane. She held herself up high, according to her, it was her time to shine. Jane did not insist nor did she push her out of the way, on the contrary, she let Leslie make a continuous fool of herself. Her translator was too embarrassed to tell her the true meaning of the words. Nothing they said was for her, it was all Jane and not Leslie. A high pompous model like her would think the poor translator would be lying if she were to be told the truth. Jane sat back down patiently waiting for her to be done. Once Leslie had enough of the compliments she quickly ran back to the fitting room where Dave was waiting for her. The photographer did have the tim
Dave looked at his sister like he would eat her if given the chance. Watching Jane walk ahead of them all, proud and composed, made his blood boil even harder. Unlike his Kelly was not herself. She had made sure of it; she had taken care of Jane, but now here she was standing with them like nothing happened. Her thoughts were going wild trying to figure how the hell things went wrong, but no matter how much she thought, she couldn't come to a concrete conclusion. “What did you do? I thought you said there was no way she would get out of it?” Dave half-barged, keeping his voice down, and Kelly only squealed from within. She too was at a loss for words. “She must have known from the start. I told you not to put anything past her, but you did like you always, and now here she is.” Kelly couldn't protest. Just like her, Dave was angry. Today had to be their day to shine. It had to be for them to put out the person they wanted, but again, Jane stole the light so effortlessly they did not
Galaxy night was not only a gathering of superstars but the very best of them in the industry. A red carpet was laid out at the entrance and the media took their position. Every camera is ready to take snapshots of the best and worst dress. It was not only a place to receive awards but a gathering of competition of style, creativity, efforts, and designs. While most top models and stars promoted luxury brands as an accessory to this event, others would rather have their designers make them something unique and creative. Everyone wanted to be the show of the night, so efforts were made. By the side of the attendance board, superstars stood with microphones, answering a few questions and waving to their fans as they held light boards carrying their names. It was a busy night even for those who could not make it, as their eyes were glued to the TV, watching and waiting for the stars of the night. As stars swamped in and the chaotic screams of their fans, Dave held on to Leslie while K
“And why would we lie about something like that? Jane, don't think too highly of yourself. Since you were handed no invitation, it only means there was never one for you? Don't tell me you want to go so badly?’’ Jane sneered in her heart. She loved just how swiftly the words were flowing off her lips. Dave walked closer to Jane with a pitiful look. ‘’Jane, I heard from you that you still have some work to take care of tonight. Why don't you focus on that and we can discuss everything afterwards?’’ Dave tried holding on to her hands but Jane was quick to step behind and pull away. ‘’Jane stop acting out, since we say there was no invitation for then there isn't, you weren't invited so stop making a fuss about everything’’ the words of Dave hit harder. Jane did not feel angry not one bit. She knew the truth and she was going to attend, but looking at them and being very much aware of what she had planned for them made her feel relieved and amused. To say they were putting in so much e
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
