2024-10-29 19:42:56As Jane could guess, the inauguration event went smoothly. There were no hitches with any of the showcased collections. The fan meet-up and the event with journalists concluded as planned. And now, they welcome the arrival of the banquet night.
"I actually miss my bed," Ursula complains. She already has a can of potato chips that Brina brought a moment before the woman disappeared with Nico. They have to meet someone in the lobby, supposedly related to one of the famous magazines in the Northern Region.
The sound of Ursula starting to crunch her chips is heard. Not many guests have arrived yet. The four of them are on the third floor, where they can see the entire activity on the ground floor. Besides waiting for the event, their presence is also used by some SEO juniors to get to know Fabian's colleagues. Building business relations has its benefits, even if it's just small talk.
"Not just you, Sula." Harvey leans comfortably. "I'm sure tonight's dinner will be

"At twelve o'clock, sitting with the bourgeoisie," says Giselle with a smile, waving slightly towards the opposite crowd. The statement is immediately responded to by Harvey and Jane, focusing on what Giselle said."Oh my gosh, I'm really disgusted looking at her."Giselle chuckles. "We have to get used to her now. If she's with Kate Don William, it means she could easily become a loyal SEO customer. You know what that means? She won't hesitate to be in the middle of us."Harvey grumbles again. At the same time, a waiter approaches the three of them."Miss Olive," he calls half-whispering. "You're requested at Mrs. Kate's table over there.""Thank you," says Jane. The waiter is left alone. "I think it's time to meet Calysta.""You're right." Giselle smiles broadly. "That woman is waving at me.""Where's Ursula?" Harvey asks while scanning the area. "I need to be with her so I won't say rude words."Jane giggles. "You don't need

"I didn't expect everyone to gather here," Fabian says as he approaches the table where the four main pillars of SEO are also present. No, his words are not for the four of them but for the guests surrounding them.SEO's loyal customers. Their desires are many, but they never ask Fabian for just a little when it comes to making dresses or outfits for special events. Fabian has long recognized their faces, and, if he may say, SEO always receives full support from all of them. That's why Fabian also makes a serious impact in appreciating loyal customers."You're too busy chatting with others, Young Man," Danisa grumbles with a disapproving tone. "Have you met my husband? Usually, he's with the police and tax officials.""Yes, Ma'am." Fabian laughs, briefly approaching the displeased-looking woman. He extends his hand as a form of apology, and when it's received, Fabian gives a quick peck on the back of her hand."You're too good at charming." Finally, Danis

"Do I have to congratulate you too?" Jane asks casually, leaning back. She adjusts the chair she's sitting in to make her back a little more comfortable."No," Fabian laughs. "I've been getting that congratulations since two days ago.""Your event is quite successful for the opening of this branch." Jane smiles faintly. "Compared to when you opened a branch in Hills Flower, I think the public's interest is more towards Long Island.""You should understand that Long Island is not just a stop before entering other cities in this Western part."Jane understands that. Long Island is also known as a tourist destination with many unique and interesting attractions. This makes tourists always decide to stop for a while and enjoy the day here.Although not a fashion center like in other big cities, Jane believes that Fabian has his own calculations for why the SEO boutique is here.

"Should I congratulate you too, huh?" Jane asks, leaning back. She adjusts the chair she's sitting on to make her back a little more comfortable."Nah," Fabian laughs. "I've been getting those wishes since two days ago.""Your event was quite a success for the opening of this branch," Jane smiles thinly. "Compared to when you opened the branch in Hills Flower, I think the community's more into Long Island.""You should understand Long Island isn't just a stopover before entering other cities in the West," Fabian remarks.Jane gets it. Long Island is also known as a tourist destination with lots of unique and interesting attractions. That's why tourists always decide to stop by and enjoy their day here. Even though it's not a fashion hub like in other big cities, Jane believes Fabian has his own calculations for why the SEO boutique is here. Looking at the collection sold exclusively on Long Island, it's a bit different in terms of price. Fabian doesn't co

Calysta waves her hand over her face. Repeating it again. Just to get rid of the heat and anger that's been haunting her. The feeling doesn't diminish even though she's tried to divert it."Damn it!" Calysta throws the glass she used to enjoy her favorite wine. This is the third glass, but her anger still hasn't subsided. Making her engulfed in an edgeless irritation. "Watch out, Jane!"She breathes heavily out of emotion. "And you too, Giselle. Especially you, Kate!" She clenches her fists. "Damn it! Damn it!"She then collapses onto the soft couch available. Leaning back while supporting her head there and letting her eyes stare at the ceiling of the room. The shadow of the dinner earlier comes back. Especially when the words of a Jane Oliver, made anyone at the table silenced."Don't you think? When your marriage spread throughout the country, where previously Austin had just divorced his unworthy wife, didn't your status become a question? Were you pr

"You're not sleeping yet, Sula."Ursula scowls in annoyance. The man she's been waiting for finally appears at the door. His face looks tired but the mischief in his eyes is still there. Even so, Ursula is very relieved and actually very happy to see him. At the dinner party earlier, they couldn't really chat freely."You took too long, Rich. Does your boss really can't handle his own work?" She covers the joy in her heart with harsh words."Don't you want to ask me in first? I've been struggling with numbers and endless reports," Richard complains with his shoulders slumping weakly. Intentionally. Baiting Ursula with a mournful face is his specialty."You're exaggerating." But then, Ursula opens her room door wide. "Come in. I didn't make coffee if that's what you want right now."Richard chuckles. "No. I need to sleep early. What time is our flight?""Are you really able to take time off?" Ursula asks, surprised. "I'm not doubting you, but

The journey back from Long Island, for some reason, makes Kate's smile not want to leave. Even though she only met Jane during the dinner, at least she made sure firsthand what the woman was up to. And how those around Jane accepted her. Kate is truly grateful for what happened.She doesn't care much about Calysta. Her son's new fiancée is just following for the sake of profit. And sure enough, Calysta really took advantage of that position perfectly, even though... ah, if Kate could laugh freely, she might have done it since the dinner.Jane is starting to show her fangs."You look happy, Mrs.," one of the guards says. After making sure the lady is comfortably seated in the car picking her up at the airport. He's tasked with accompanying the great Don William's wife while she's away from her home."Yes, you're right," Kate smiles thinly. "I'm feeling happy."The car speeds through the road towards the airport exit. Heading straight to her r

"I've talked to the journalist you're supposed to meet," Hans says after placing his report on Fabian's desk. After yesterday's inauguration event, almost all layers of the SEO staff were at their busiest. There was a lot to be done, especially in the marketing and publicity division. Two big SEO events that were almost back-to-back significantly contributed to increasing sales turnover.Hans has been overtime countless times due to the workload and emails from Fabian."When can I meet them?" the boss asks without looking at his interlocutor. His hands and eyes are busy examining and reading the report that Irena sent via email."In a week. I've also heard about their reputation; they're very good at twisting facts."Fabian's hand movement stops briefly. Then a chuckle escapes uncontrollably. "Isn't that good?""Um, but, Boss, I think you also need to know one thing. He's too extreme in writing news. Many say he's an ambitious journalist who wants

Jane tightened the coat she was wearing a little. The road she was walking on was a little slippery, even though she was wearing boots and watching her step, she still had to be very careful. The air around her dropped a few degrees from what she expected."Are you okay?" asked Fabian as he fixed the scarf Jane was wearing."That question is for you, Fabian." Jane chuckled. Fabian's face was already very red from the cold that hit them."You're really out of your depth when it comes to the place you'd most like to visit." Fabian spluttered. Rubbing his hands even though he was wearing gloves."But this place is exotic, right?"Fabian could not disagree with Jane's words just now. Especially seeing the twinkle that wouldn't leave since they arrived at the airport closest to this place. no. not close, but within reach of the place where they spent their days and time together after becoming husband and wife.The trip to Tibet was tiring but Ja

Jane couldn't help but laugh. "Forgive Fabian then.""No!" Rosalyn shook her head. "After you are married, you must stay at our house. There's a lot we want to hear about your relationship. Oh, my God! Fabian was really testing my patience. Why else would Zephyr have such a troublesome brother like Fabian!"The woman wasn't really angry. Just grumbling about her brother's behavior which she thought was a bit out of line. More than anything, Rosalyn was happy and touched. There was nothing she could do but wish them both happiness. Although the relationship between her husband and Fabian was not blood, couldn't a brotherhood be formed because of the setting? After all, Zephyr's affection for Fabian was not a trivial matter.Rosalyn realized that."We will definitely visit often, Ros. I promise. I'll make Fabian obey me in visiting you."Rosalyn smiled brightly. "Ah..." she felt like pulling Jane into her arms but it was impossible. She might get ang

"Quiet look on your face, Olive," Ursula said casually, but at least this redheaded woman's arrival came with the mineral bottle Jane needed."Hey, you're talking out of your ass," Harvey retorted with a disapproving glint in his eye. It's so representative of Jane's expression that he has to keep his smile and the outfit he's wearing this afternoon. He wants to talk a lot but the tension that's engulfing him doesn't go away easily."Did you forget how tense you were before the ceremony to legalize marriage?" Harvey spoke again with a look that had not been released from Ursula. The insinuated one, meanwhile, just shrugged her shoulders without feeling guilty. His hand skillfully unscrewed the bottle cap and handed it to Jane.As she said, "Drink first, relieve the tension. It's even more tense in front of the priest. You're about to take your vows for life with Fabian. You know, that's the moment when you have to convince your heart whether you can live togethe

Austin stared for a long time at the cell phone that displayed news about his ex-wife. Many things had apparently been accomplished by the woman who once lived with him in the big house that was now much quieter. Not wanting any regrets, Austin chose to put the phone back in the drawer.Their last meeting, although it left quite a deep impression on Austin, still wouldn't change anything. everything that had happened, could not be regretted more deeply. It was useless. He also didn't want to dwell on what was present in his life. He had to keep going, right? There was no way he could stay in the same spot while lamenting why he could be so stupid as to give a judgment?"You deserve real happiness, not a false one that ends horribly when you're with me, Jane." Austin let out a long sigh. His eyes were firmly closed with his hands clenched. He shook his head softly as his mind suddenly replayed the memory of his ex-wife's presence in the house."At least God is st

"How was your honeymoon?" asked Giselle without any awkwardness. She was being helped to wear a peach-colored dress that wrapped her body gracefully. On the back, there was a large, well-embroidered ribbon decorated with beautiful maple leaves."Do I have to tell you in detail?" Ursula gave Harvey an ignorant glance. "You must be curious, right, Harvey?"The girl who was wearing brocade gloves just chuckled. Her eyes looked at Ursula through the reflection of the large mirror in front of her. "Aren't you the one who requested special teaching from me because you have no experience?"Ursula spluttered but then, looked up as if she was already an expert in the matter they were talking about. "But I can honestly say, I didn't use any of your advice."Harvey stuck out his tongue. "How could I!""Ask Richard directly how I acted in front of him.""I don't think it was Richard who pounced on Sula. It was the other way around." Giselle had finished

"Looks like he's busy with his cell phone." Brina giggled in the doorway of Giselle's room. Jane stood not far from her. In her hand was a tray of chicken soup and porridge that she had made for Giselle.Hoping that the girl's appetite would return and her health would gradually improve. But it seemed, from the slight crack in Giselle's door that was not closed tightly, it could already be seen that Giselle was fine.Minus her pretty face scowling with eyes focused on the cell phone."But if you wait outside, Giselle won't eat this soup." Jane smiled slightly and knocked lightly on Giselle's bedroom door. Suddenly, the girl was slightly startled and hid her cell phone.Just like a teenage girl who was caught doing something. But so be it. As long as nothing made Giselle sad or disappointed, Jane was happy."I hope you like my cooking."Giselle smiled widely. "When would I turn it down." She prepared to sit on the back of the bed. The blanket

"I just want to go home," Giselle said in a low tone but her eyes were full of pleading. Which made Jane sigh repeatedly. I don't know how many times she shook her head with excuses, but none of Jane's words were heard by Giselle."Until your IV bag runs out, Giselle. The doctor is very tolerant of that." Harvey spoke this time. There was an unspoken but clearly audible final tone that made Giselle look away."You're so stubborn!" Harvey scowled. He was getting a bit annoyed with Giselle's childish behavior this time. It was much more troublesome with Giselle's unreasonable behavior than Ursula's indulgence that sometimes made him uneasy.Brina, who had been accompanying Giselle, could only remain silent. It also seemed like she had given up on giving many words to the beautiful girl who was lying weak."Can you leave us alone?" asked Jane which made them all look at her in surprise. Which Jane greeted with a warm smile. "I want to talk to Giselle. You do

As the grand show approached, there was nothing much Jane could do. The four pillars of SEO were specially asked to participate in the event to commemorate SEO's eighth anniversary. For most people who are familiar with SEO's signature clothing pieces, this event is highly anticipated. Because there will be many surprises given by Fabian there.Including special discounts for the purchase of certain items.Who wouldn't be tempted? Plus being able to attend the event, which for this year opened up a much wider reach."The concept is really good," says Giselle as she enjoys Jane's fruit jelly. The trip to Long Island and then to Milan and back to the city center where she lives was quite draining. She felt like her body could collapse at any moment. And it also felt like she had a queasy stomach.The effects of a long trip were quite miserable for Giselle."You'd better get some rest, Giselle."

The wedding party, which was predicted to be the most luxurious party of the year, was very well organized. Not many problems occurred because Ursula hired the services of a leading WO and was known for her very high-flying hours at major celebrity events. This includes officials and influential people living in the country.The red-haired girl's smile was beautiful as she accompanied all the events that took place a few hours after the sacred vows between them were lovingly exchanged."I don't know who's lucky to get who," Harvey says, wiping the corners of his eyes. Beside him sat Giselle and Jane. He was in the middle of his two friends. Not only her, but her two friends also seemed to be moved by the bond that was now in Ursula's life."They're both lucky, Harvey," Giselle said with a big smile. "I'm so happy today to witness the beginning of Sula's happiness.""You're right." Jane chimed in. "I pray they are always blessed with happiness.""Ca
