"Lea, come on tell me who are you going to bring as partners in this video shoot?" asked Eloise urgently. She almost gave up trying to get information from Lea's mouth who would be her partner. Lea laughed and patted Eloise lightly on the shoulder. "Just bear with me, my dear manager, in a little while I will prove to you that I am worthy of being the model you mentor and will not embarrass you." Eloise pouted, but the up and down movement of Lea's eyebrows teased her so Eloise finally smiled again and nodded. "Okay Lea, I trust you. You've proven to me before that you have the ability, so I'm not worried." Lea and Eloise head to a photo shoot for Harvest Weekly Magazine. This time the shooting was done in an open space. The models will bring their respective partners who will be their partner in the photo shoot and when finished the best couple photos will be on the front cover of the magazine for the special anniversary issue. The news that the models will bring with them fig
A new and limited edition Harley Davidson motorcycle, shiny black with red stripes on the sides, stops with a soft thud halfway through the driveway. The driver, a tall and athletic man, wearing a full-face helmet with glasses, a leather jacket, and knee-high boots, got off his motorcycle quietly. Everyone who saw him was deeply impressed by his dramatic appearance. The men admired the big motorbikes which were extraordinarily expensive and the women were curious about the face of the Harley Davidson rider. They guess which celebrity or socialite likes to ride that big, luxurious motorbike. Lea walked quickly towards the motorcyclist who still hadn't taken off his helmet, followed by the surprised and curious Eloise, Fely and the three models, their partner, Nina, and several other staff. The biker seemed to see Lea walking towards him. He took off his helmet and immediately a new commotion blared much more merrily. "Oh My God, it's Jonathan Issac!" "Oh my god, how handsome he
"Let's make a fair arrangement," Allan said impatiently. "There are five pairs of models here and all brought pairs that are clearly not just random people who have a lot of free time to waste. Everyone is busy and in a hurry. So to be fair, we will be doing the photoshoot by lottery numbers. For each model and partner, there will be three photoshoots and one video shoot, so the order will rotate like clockwork." Allan motioned to one of his staff to distribute papers with the numbers 1 to 5 written on them and each model had to take the paper at random. Jonathan winked at Lea before taking the paper from the female staff who was looking at him with big eyes. "The middle number I think is good for us," Jonathan whispered. Lea nodded."Has everyone taken the numbered papers?" Allan said again. "Now please open it and tell me your number."Fely cheered when she opened the paper and got number one.Nina gave a thumbs up. "You will always be number one, Ms. Fely!" Nina said happily.Fe
"This is good." Caitlin pointed at a photo. "This is also good. This is not bad, this is not bad. Here! Look at this, and this, and this, and this. Awesome!" Allan and several of his other staff all agreed with Caitlin's choice. "Allan, please have a word with me," Caitlin called Allan. She led Allan to the corner of the room. "Why are the photos so bad?" asked Caitlin in a low voice. "It doesn't look like she is a professional model at all and look at her partner! They are like a couple who are ready to part ways, but still have to pretend to be warm at a party." Allan scratched the nape of his neck that didn't itch. "Look, Mrs. Caitlin, I understand what will happen if we don't handle this properly. But don't worry, I know how to deal with this," Allan replied with a grin. "How?" Caitlin asked. "Look, in an hour the social media team will put out the clips of the video we made earlier and we can measure the popularity of the models as a yardstick for us to determine who deserv
Jayden turns off the laptop just as Liam walks into his room. "You should start learning how to knock on doors, bro, really," Jayden quipped as he stretched his aching body. Liam laughed and stretched his body lengthwise on the sofa. "I was walking through the finance manager's office when I saw through the window you were here," Liam says. "I haven't seen you in a long time and longing makes me want to say hello to my handsome cousin." "Tsk! You make me want to puke, Liam!" Jayden said. "What is it?" "Have you seen Grandma again lately?" Liam asked. Jayden's brow furrowed. "Grandma? What's wrong? You were told to drag me to her with the bride? Again?" Liam laughs. "You haven't seen her in a long time, have you? Busy with your lost mate? Oh come on, bro, you have to see her, so she will quit disturb me." "She's no longer lost Liam. My mate. I've found her and am in the process of bringing her up and down the aisle." "Yeah, yeah, yeah, and how's it going?" "So far so good, I
"Where are we?" Lea asked.Jayden was driving with one hand while his other hand held Lea's hand tightly and every now and then he raised Lea's hand to his lips for a kiss.Lea felt embarrassed but pleased because of Jayden's slightly possessive behavior. She thought, this must be because of Jonathan."What did you do today? You look messy," Lea said. "Much work to do?"Jayden squeezed Lea's hand. "Hm. My boss today is a bit cranky and told me to do this and that. However, because he was satisfied with the result, he paid me handsomely, double or triple.""Owh that's great, Jay, but you still have to look out for yourself. Don't push yourself too hard or you might get sick.""Yes, I know."Jayden brought the car into the parking area of a mall. "Mall?" asked Lea in surprise. "You need to buy something?" "I need to buy some more casual clothes and there is an Italian restaurant inside this mall. They have great pasta," Jayden replied calmly. "You want to help me choose clothes?" L
Lea stared at the dishes served on the table. Jayden touched Lea's arm gently and slid spaghetti from his fork. This Italian restaurant is not the best restaurant that Jayden usually goes to, but still, the food they serve is good and clean.After all, he was with Lea and all food tasted delicious when eaten with someone he loved. Jayden was a bit surprised because since arriving at this restaurant, Lea seemed to be quieter and more gloomy. He thought, should he take Lea to eat at another restaurant?"Try it, it's delicious," Jayden said.Lea opened her mouth and took the bite from Jayden's hand. Suddenly an old event flashed through her mind and her eyes became teary.Jayden looked at Lea in confusion. He quickly put down the fork and took Lea's hand."Hey Baby, what's up? Don't you like that spaghetti? Shall I get something else?" Jayden asked softly. He touched the corner of Lea's right eye. "Why are you crying. All you have to do is say if you don't like what I'm giving you, don't
"I've forgotten that pseudo now," said Lea with a sweet smile. She waved her hand."I was only two years at the orphanage, but I got so many things there, including friendship and new insights. When I met Jonathan, I also learned to understand that blood relations had absolutely nothing to do with love. People who have same blood with you, parents, brothers or sisters, cousins, uncles, aunts, they could be the most dangerous people for us. They can willingly let go of our hands for something that is unreal, while other people we have never known before even will be the bravest defenders and guardian who stand by our side selflessly."Jayden looked at Lea who was smiling broadly. He knew that Lea was telling the truth, but his instincts still caught the bitterness in Lea's voice and the faint tremor in the corner of his girlfriend's eyes.Jayden didn't understand how a woman as beautiful and elegant as Lea had gone through a lot of painful things and could stay calm and strong. It's cl
