VALERIE'S POV

"Pleasure to finally meet you! the top spot has been specifically reserved for you after we saw your application" she gushed.

What just happened???

"Huh? how did such a spot get reserved for me" I asked in confusion.

"I don't know about the details, I'm just following instructions" she replied curtly.

"Whoes instructions?" I questioned.

"Quit the multiple questions, no one has time to answer all this. Just take this top spot badge and kindly exit the room" she said, a tight smile on her face.

"Okay, thank you" I said and collected the golden badge.

With that I exit her office, now in the waiting room where the rest of the girls were seated. I can't help their curious gaze watching me expectantly.

"Did you get the top role?" one of the girls questioned.

"Fat chance! why bother asking her, a big spot like that couldn't possibly be reserved for someone like her" Cherry said mockingly.

"Actually… you might want to see this" I said, a wide smirk plastered on my fa

    CHAPTER 32VALERIE'S POVThe next face I saw seated at the front row also made me almost lose my posture during the runway, just barely escaping making an obvious stumble. I could feel myself boiling in anger.What was she even doing here???That was Lia, the most adored and loved model in the country…Aka my very own mother who abandoned me without a second thought. Now she was here watching me with a wide smile on her face which was really pissing me off.Keeping my calm facade, I continued my multiple turns until it was finally the end of the show. I was exhausted! but this was totally worth it considering I was going to get my name out there in the fashion industry community. That would help me in getting more jobs in the future."Valerie, someone wants to speak with you" Dia told me as soon as she entered the dressing room where I was currently seated. Since we were done with the show, me and the other girls were already changing to our original outfits preparing to go home. I ha

Before I knew it, I leaned in closer to him and did the unthinkable…I smashed my lips against his, wanting more of his divine lips. it didn't take long for me to actually realize what I was doing. I parted my lips away from him and looked away in embarrassment.What the heck was I thinking?"I'm sorry, I don't know why I did that" I apologized, still too embarrassed to look his way."Don't apologize" he replied, softly caressing my cheeks and making sure I was staring at his eyes also.He captures my lips to an intense kiss, making me lose my ability to think right at the moment. I run my hands through his incredibly soft and silky hair, messing it up in the process.Stephano had such pretend hair it made me jealous. I had always imagined what his hair would feel like and had to fight the urge to run my fingers through his hair multiple times. Now I was doing it and damn! It felt good, that wasn't the only t

I asked quizzically.Was I seeing things now? The shadow was so fast it was hard to make anything off it but I was pretty sure it was a man's shadow. But how did he get in here? it didn't seem like that could be one of the guards, because then he wouldn't have needed to hide from us."No, what did you see? was there someone there?" he asked, his countenance becoming more serious immediately."I'm not really sure, I guess I'm too tired so I imagined it. I thought I saw someone but your security is too tight for an intruder to be roaming around" I explained.I honestly wanted to believe no one was there because the thought of someone watching me made me feel uneasy, that felt scary… what if I get attacked in my sleep?? No! that can't happen, it's very unlikely for someone to

Her mom and Eric's wife Esther were there with her. She went out to show her critiques who sat regally on the chair sipping lemonade. She eyed them dubiously and mouth "really??" With an arched eyebrow. They were only sitting there, enjoying a glass of lemonade and scrolling through the magazine while Fiona was made to endure the prickling and prodding of the stylist. "What do you think??" She asked without much enthusiasm. She felt beautiful but she wanted to hear from them. She gasped, stood up and walked towards her with beaming smiles on their faces."Oh my! You look adoring." Esther squealed into her hand and giggled excitedly. Fiona rolled my eyes as her mum and Esther passed a secret look at themselves.
