Regina was more than confident in the decisions of Jane. She knew just the right way to bring trouble to herself and how to remove herself from it, trapping in those she wished she to be trapped in. Of Course, such a model is not easy to find. As soon as they got home, Regina placed a call to Dave. ‘’hello.. Yeah, Regina, do let Jane know her flight is to be by morning and she won't be picked up from the airport hence she would have to arrange for her ride’’ Dave spoke so nonchalantly through the phone like he had been the one to call. If he had so much to tell Jane, why didn't he call earlier? The more time she was spending with them, the more she was beginning to share in the hate Pamela had for them. President Dave, I did call to let you know Jane has decided to stay back and wait for the official release of the cover before heading home’’ She waited as the silence from the other end gradually turned to heavy breath. Regina was quick to cut the call, Dave was exploding with ange
Jane glanced through a copy of the magazine Regina had gone out and bought and it confirmed her thoughts. Just like the fans and speculations online were saying, Lelsie had indeed turned herself into a backdrop. Jane did not feel proud, she had done everything expected of her and now that Leslie had become her backdrop, she was eagerly waiting on the next move they were ready to pull on her. ‘"We have dinner to attend. Everyone's search is about you and Lookious, you have outdone yourself on this one. There is no way she would have done better or what you have done’’ Regina says, glancing over at the magazine. ‘’To think Mrs Carter had almost listened to Kelly and gotten rid of you, now they would have been suffering the unprofessionalism of Leslie. Such a model as she did not deserve to be compared to the big supermodels of Damon's entertainment.’’ Pamela laughed. Jane had been right to ride her on, but now her overconfidence was certainly going to kill her. ‘’Remember the articl
It was time for the celebratory dinner. Pamela was all dressed up in a peach color gown with black heels. She looked even more stunning. Tonight was also her night, Jane did not want her to be left behind. Her victory over Leslie did not come as a surprise, but that of Pamela did. Just a few photos of her by her side and the mention of her as her previous manager made her blow up. She was proud, very proud to be her friend and a model for her. Jane has always had faith in Pamela but seeing everything come to reality, now she was certain Pamela was going places. She just made history. The very first manager to top the billboard as her artist. Every new outlet and magazine both home and abroad was talking about the success of Pamela and Jane. They step out of the car just in time to see Leslie, Dave, and Kelly gorge on them. Leslie still had the arrogant look, while Kelly was acting rather weird. She was the type to stare at her nastily but Jane could tell she was holding back, what
Everyone was staring and listening to the confrontation on stage. Those that could not understand the language, asked for help. They were invested, no one wanted to leave without hearing the full gist. Indeed the circle lived for the gossip, the scandal, and everything defaming each other. ‘’Leslie, don't you think you consider yourself rather too important? Why would I waste time and energy on someone like you?’’ Jane asked, her lips curved in a smile. She did not have much time to pull such a nasty trick on someone as low as her. Her actions and everything had brought her to this point and she was not willing to be yet another stepstone she used to clear her name. Jane was done helping, yes she had never wanted to or wished for it but her presence alone had helped Leslie, she had confirmed it. But that was about to end. Leslie stepped back, the lights shining in her eye did not make her good. Since no one knew of her or was talking and praising her like they did Jane she was more
Leslei was still on stage trying so hard to wrap her head around everything. It was an unbelievable situation she found herself in and a disgraceful one at that. While everyone thought the saga was over. It was indeed far from being over. Dave walked up the stage taking Leslie fully into his arms. He pointed at Jane who looked like she had been expecting his reaction for the longest time. ‘’Jane, how could you do such a despicable thing to Leslie? I know you are angry and you want revenge, but it should be directed at me and not her. Why would you not give up the thought I am no longer yours?’’ ‘’revenge?’’ Jane is smug. ‘’Dave, I dare you to say revenge one more time. How can a person like myself want revenge when I did not get anything? She should have been able to pull through even if I wanted to take revenge on her, after all, she was the one with top management to see through everything.She was highly promoted and a fan base was established for her despite the oughts of us bei
‘’You Are ruthless’’ Jane watched as they walked away. To Kelly this was ruthless but to Jane, it was not enough, she wanted every one of them crumbling to their feet. She wanted Dave out of the industry and Leslie pushed them to a point of no return. Since they both had not reached such a point, she did not think she was ruthless at all. When security was sure they were out, they left the three to find their way around. The environment was too quiet allowing Leslie to digest everything, her legs suddenly giving up on her as her knees came crashing hard with the hard floor. Tears streaming down her eyes, this was a pathetic scene, and Damon Miles who had just arrived took a perfect picture of it. It was something he would need and just like that, he sent a voiceover to someone on his phone. They wanted Jane on her knees but here she was crying and kneeling. While others were celebrating inside, Leslie, Dave, and Kelly all stood outside as dejected beings. Their faces said it all.
Leslie and her crew went home. There was not much to be said and individually they were cursing Jane in their minds and hearts. Leslie could not settle for the fact that Jane had nothing to do with what happened to her neither Dave nor Kelly. They all blamed Jane for everything. ‘’I can't believe someone as insignificant as Pamela has been recognized while there is nothing about me”’ Leslie cries into the arms of Dave. They had been so busy preparing for their engagement and the relaxation had given Jane so much time to do a lot behind their backs. Dave was still to come to terms with the new contract. He had been the one to sign over the right to negotiate her contracts, but now he was beginning to regret that decision. Never would he have thought Jane would go behind his back and discuss things with the board without him catching a glimpse of it. No one had called to inform him and he had to find out in such an embarrassing way. ‘’Why don't we see if we can get help from one of
Kelly did not look at herself. She couldn't take it. She was from having a cold bath but nothing made it change. The reality was still so cruel. She not only lost her job, but she was now blacklisted and for breaching her contract she had a huge fine to pay her company before ever leaving the country. She was too shocked to figure out everything. Her hands went straight for the nightstand pushing everything to the floor in the feet of rage. ‘’Why is this happening now? Why does it have to be now, when I have given my best and done so much?’’ Kelly questioned herself over a thousand times but no matter what she asked, deep down she knew it was all gone. Gone never to be recovered. She was not as fortunate as Jane who could come back and be doing so well. Dave and Leslie had just finished taking their baths when they heard the shattering noise that came from Kelly’s room and rushed over. They had no time to knock. Dave walked in on his sister's miserable state on the floor staring b
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
