Her niece's work in Manhattan was over. There were other jobs waiting to be done but Celine made sure that the campaigning that Cristine would be doing next week would not interfere with her schedule.
Grace was sure Celine wouldn't go back on her word. After all, Celine's attitude after the meeting with Yoseph seemed to have changed. She was no longer so annoying and sarcastic. Or making Grace feel like this girl was completely out of control. Her return home since that night, was welcomed by Grace and they talked quite intensely about what Celine wanted.
Grace still remembered what she had discussed with her father about Celine's sudden request. Grace couldn't understand how Celine could say such a blunt thing in public. Couldn't they talk in a more private setting? But what had already been said could never be ta

"Do you seriously know what Jacob is doing behind your back?" asked Karen in an amazed tone. Her eyes sparkled brightly and her smile wouldn't leave her lips. Feeling so satisfied because Celine's words really hit Jacob. The proof was that the insolent man and his brain was formed from shrimp shells, could only be stunned. Letting Celine and Karen walk away."No," Celine said casually. Her steps were so light and she looked happy. Not because she was free from all of them, but at least Celine left a few unforgettable memories before they met again."But you look so convincing when you talk." Karen gaped. "I knew you had to be lying. Your informant must not be giving out clues at random. Right?""I'm serious, Karen. I don't know if Jacob did that. What I said was just made up. But I didn't expect his reaction to be as unexpected as it was." Celine giggled. "Oh my, so it's true that Jacob does like to have fun with many women.""I think you really know and

Justin stared at his cell phone which was displaying the latest news related to Celine. His eyes were not distracted at all, only focused on the narrative contained in the news. The photo that was circulating did not show Celine and Bryan together in one frame. Even so, Celine's news immediately received an extraordinary response.Much more public attention than the intimate farewell between Celine and Jacob at the airport."Where did this news come from?" asked Justin, who had finished focusing on the news. He seemed relaxed about something that felt like it could be one of Justin's turning points."NewsPaper, Justin," informed Hans who had just gotten a profile of the mastermind behind the news that Celine Princessa had been dragged into. "What's this all about, Justin?""Are you sure you're asking me?" Justin laughed. "Has Celine arrived at Giselle's apartment?""I heard she has. Karen is in the training room, still talking to Brina.""Pl

Celine chose to enjoy her coffee cup. It didn't matter that almost all the eyes in the living room of the Langham residence were focused on her. Her arrival three hours ago was heavily guarded by the Desmond family's men. They even faked Celine's arrival in Manhattan just for the super model's safety."Is it true what's been reported, Celine?" asked Grace, holding back her frustration. Since the news broke and was widely discussed, Grace didn't know what to make of it. And she couldn't just say anything to the media who asked. Especially her niece's relationship with Bryan Desmond, who is the uncle of Jacob, Celine's future husband."My part is getting intimate with Jacob? Even escorted him home recently?"Grace clucked angrily. "Don't change the subject, Celine.""I didn't expect Celine to do such a disgusting thing behind our backs? Until now I tried not to believe it but the more, I looked into it, the more it became clear that it wasn't just hype. Am

"Are you okay?"Celine had to put her cell phone away just to see if the person she was talking to on the phone tonight was really Bryan. No matter what, that type of question seemed very strange to Celine because of what had happened between them."You... seriously asking how I'm doing?""Am I wrong, Princess?"In the end Celine could only sigh softly. "The question should have been mine, Uncle Bryan.""I don't know why every time I hear you mention my name complete with uncle, all I want to do is put you under my control. I won't give you mercy until you realize that I'm not the person you should be calling uncle."Celine laughed softly. On the super large bed that she slept on, Celine took one of the pillows. Supporting her head so that it was not in a low position. "What if I don't care about your wishes?""Do you like being under my control?"Celine's eyes wandered far away. "I do, but I don't think this is the right time

Jacob crumpled the report he had just gotten. His secretary seemed silent, not knowing what to do since everything her boss wanted to know, she had already given."Asshole!" cursed Jacob as he unhooked his tie immediately. "You better get out, Risa. I don't need you anymore.""Yes, sir."Jacob let the woman who worked for him rush out of the room. He needed to cool down the emotions that were already overwhelming him. His head was throbbing not because of pain but because he had a lot to think about how to keep his mother out of the news. Especially about Bryan and his divorce case. It shouldn't have anything to do with her mother, but the media wouldn't just sit around looking for gaps so that news about them continued to rise and go viral. Many people talk about them and create a lot of opinions, especially when it's campaign time."Damn it!" Jacob was really annoyed. He didn't care if the glass on his desk was now scattered on the floor. The glass shar

"How long until the news involving my name is finished with the media?" Celine asked casually. She was still using the comb in her hand to tidy up her hair. The styling of her long hair this morning was already complete. It only remains to give the impression of big waves at the bottom.This morning's schedule for Celine was to accompany Cristine on a campaign. The target this time was a densely populated area where there was a busy market. Getting the sympathy of the many people there, especially the minorities, was Cristine's priority during the campaign period."Your popularity is going up. Don't you have any gratitude for me?" Andrew's voice chuckled at the other end."Should I order a chocolate pudding as a thank you?""You're so annoying," Andrew grumbled. "But you still have to be careful.

Exactly what Andrew was commemorating. The place they visited as the first day of the campaign that Cristine was scheduled to do, was quite terrible. It wasn't. The location was easy to reach, it didn't take long for them to arrive, it was just that as soon as they got out of the car a lot of cynical stares and displeased faces greeted them.The crime rate in this district is high, and the social inequality and economic problems in the area are the main sources. But Cristine's survey of the district could be used to increase her popularity because of the promise she made. It will surely garner a lot of sympathy and trust that Cristine can bring change to the district."The venue for the meeting with local officials has already been prepared," said one of the campaign teams Cristine recruited to help her find votes. Several other teams had already met with neighborhood residents. They handed out pamphlets and asked them, as representatives of one of the residents, to si
