Turning towards the door, a familiar figure enters.
"Hello, Miss Montes" "Hello, Mr. Simon" Lexie replies with the greetings of the all-smile Gabriel Simon."What sorcery have you done to make yourself this small CEO Lucien Wright" he turns to the boy on the couch who is gaping up at him."Mama, is he a silly man?" Lucy whispers to his mother after he averted his gaze away from the visitor."No, baby. He is papa's friend" softly, she assures the boy who looks afraid of the man."Hello there young CEO Lucien" Gab continues with his playfulness despite hearing what the boy called him."I am not my papa. I am Lucas Alexander Montes. You are acting silly. My papa is a grown man, I'm just a boy" Lucy exclaims, incredulously confused. "Ohhh, is that so? But you look exactly like CEO Lucien. Are you deceiving me kiddo? What have you done to my best friend? Why did you make him shrink?" confusion reflects on his face while he closely scrutThe rumor continues to float around but Lucien or any Wright ignores it like it doesn't exist. It has receded by the inattention of anyone from the family. The cold shoulder added to Ellen's resentment.Lucien did not bother to take down the document. He left everything unanswered and unverified. He left the decision to the public to believe it or not.With all his hectic schedule, he has no time to be bothered by insignificant matters, more so Lexie.She has become busy with the preparation of her brand and the design she will be launching. She has become too focused on her dream career and their family to mind gossip. Lucy's health has been immensely improving and she was so happy about it. That's all that's important to her and Lucien, Lucy's good health.She had just come out of the vehicle still several meters away from Silhouette Designs office when she was startled by someone's greetings."Hello, Lexie, wow great car! A limo!" Emily'
As the summer event is nearing, all the teams were becoming busy. Lexie, together with Jason and Eve went to the venue to finalize the reservation."This place is gorgeous" Jason raves excitedly as he lounge on the comfortable chair. A huge tree shades them from the sun.Waiting at the poolside with served fresh fruit drinks, they enjoy the serenity. The massive size of the area complies with the requirement of the event."Wright Hotel and Resort is the biggest in the capital, perfect for huge events" Eve explains before sipping her drinks. They are waiting for the final quotation. Madame Levinia Wright had approved the discount for Silhouettes Designs upon knowing their reservation the previous months."With great accommodation. Madame Levinia Wright has been very strict with the management" Eve continues."I feel like I'm so rich whenever I'm here. The relaxing atmosphere is superb" Jason added with closed eyes.They were
Ellen's departure has been quiet. No media had known of her plans of leaving the country. But Lexie knows about it from Lucien. His men reported Ellen's flight together with her parents and it's doesn't look like a short vacation."It would help her to leave for a moment," she said to him."Yes, it will do her good. I wonder what made her decide. She was a brat and spoiled to be convinced by her parents" he mumbles."Miss Ellen is a smart woman. She might have some realizations to make her life better" she smiles while snuggling close to him with closed eyes."I hope so" he mutters with a shrug.They just finished making love and they are ready to sleep while having a casual conversation. But too tired to stay awake, Lexie no longer had the chance to reply as she enters slumber."I tire you again, my doll" he whispers while caressing her face.After placing a gentle kiss on her forehead, he gathers her in his arms and closed his e
Lexie went back to the main room and she paused at the door, sensing the tensed atmosphere while all eyes were on her.She looks around and she could see different expressions, which confuses her. She was trying to assess the situation when she noticed her makeup kit."Oh my...my kit" she mumbles as she rushes to pick up her stuff on the floor."Lexie..." Jason called.Turning to Jason, she turns to look at him and she narrow's her eyes upon seeing Jason's grim expression."What is it Jason?" she asks. She could sense everyone's hostility towards her."Someone lost a ring" Jason seriously stated.Earnestly listening and looking at him, she mulls with something."Oh...I found a ring in the powder room during lunch... it's here in my kit..." she immediately checks the bag and looks for it."This?" Mariz raises the ring in her hand."We've been looking for this thing the whole afternoon" she added.Turning to the model, she s
The day of the event has come and everyone was all scrambling on their feet even at the break of dawn. The previous day's tension was temporarily forgotten as everyone becomes focused on making the summer event successful."Today is your launch in Silhouettes Designs, right?" Lucien mumbles against her cheek."Yes," she replies with closed eyes, enjoying Lucien's kisses."Shine bright like a sun, my doll. I know you will blind them with your beauty and your talent. I'm so proud of you" he continues as he trails kisses all over her face."You haven't seen my designs, Lucien..." incredulous but amused, she retorted."I don't need to see, I know you are great in your craft. I believe in you" he firmly counters, gently biting her skin.Giggling, she tightens her arms around his waist."Thank you for the faith, my love" she smiles and kisses him back. He enjoys her lips on his before moving away to cup her beautiful f
Just like what Levinia said, minutes before the start of the show, CEO Lucien Wright arrived.Arvin and Eve rushed to meet the man amid the hushed surprise of every guest. And as the most famous among all famous guests, everyone stands to greet the CEO, though no one could come close to even shaking hands with him."Welcome to Silhouettes Designs summer launch, CEO Wright. We are greatly honored by your presence" Arvin firmly shook hands with Lucien and Eve followed."I have some spare time, President Arvin" he casually responded before turning to Eve with a smile."Welcome, CEO Wright" Eve smiles despite her nervous nerves. She hasn't met the CEO this close aside from seeing him afar during events she accompanies Arvin. Indeed, the CEO is dangerously handsome. His strong prominent profile is paired with piercing eyes, enough to intimidate with just a stare. His powerful intimidating aura fills the entire place and she bet everyone had felt it.
The instant she steps outside of the stage, she felt his presence. She doesn't need to see him to know he is watching.Looking straight ahead, she saw him directly afar, in front of the stage. Together with his family whom she saw subtle surprise reflects on their faces as they stare at her. But one of the things Wright was good at is maintaining their expressions controlled. No one had even noticed the surprise they have upon seeing Lexie onstage.Discreetly, she spares them a fleeting glance, especially with Lucien. Too quick for anyone to notice their gazes lock. But the fleeting moment is all they need. They already understood the unspoken and it made her more confident. He is watching her and she will give him a perfect show.During her previous modeling career, she had not been given the chance to model in an event as huge as the summer event of SD, but she has been doing great in modeling even before. She just had no chance to showcase how she could own t
As expected, Lexie was called to be introduced to Arman Varce and Sandra Corsino together with the Wright family amid jealousy from the other models, especially Mariz and her circle of friends.The after-party has started and everyone enjoys the overflowing drinks and sumptuous buffet dinner while enjoying the twilight. The dramatic indigo color showers the sky seeming to join the celebration of the success of Silhouettes Designs.Led by Arvin, Lexie approaches the group with a reserved smile. Boring envious gazes from the others followed the two as they walk towards the most prominent group in the after-party."Lexie, meet Mr. Arman Varce, the owner and designer of Varce Designs" politely, she accepted his handshake."Nice meeting you sir" with a reserved smile she looks straight into his eyes."My pleasure is mine, Miss Montes" amicably, the man kisses her hand."And this is Madame Sandra Corsino, the owner and Editor of Fashion Toda
