All Chapters of Pearl of his Heart: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Alya was staring at everything around her in wonder. The fast paced world of fashion lay bare in front of her in shades of various colors and elegance. The pillarless hall was glittering with red and blue lights which hung from the ceiling while a purple U-shaped ramp was placed in the middle. Chairs were lined along the ramp in neat series.  The floor under her feet was glowing in a soft pink color. Several posters hung from the ceiling to the ground showcasing many of the fashion highlights of the season while a large 8x8 foot television was placed at the back of the ramp which was showing old clips from various fashion shows and interviews.  But Alya was more interested in the people around her. Most of them were elegantly dressed but each person followed a distinct fashion style which intrigued her. Unlike Jason’s

Cain and Jenna were seated at the front row alongside other VIP guests who were attending the show. Several celebrities had graced the event and Cain was talking to some of them regarding investments while Jenna sat beside him, quietly sipping wine. She kept on glancing to a spot to her far right.  Jason was seated there, talking to a fellow investor. She was eyeing him, longing for him. Seeing that Cain was busy, she got up and slowly walked towards Jason. “So, our company is projecting a growth of 20 percent this year,” Jason was telling the investor. “The upcoming fashion show we’ll host will-” “Hello Jason.” He paused and turned around to find Jenna seated next to h

Many of them were attracting interested members who gathered around all the stalls except for one. A girl in her early twenties was sitting alone at a stall, disheartened by the lack of response for her Comic Club.

“Who’s that hottie?” Some of the girls were whispering and pointing at the new member of Comic Club. They were eyeing the hot dude who was wearing the club’s t-shirt. He was smiling like a professional which was quite charming to their eyes. “Are you a part of the club too?” one girl asked Cain, giggling like a school kid. “I am a part timer here,” Cain lied smoothly. Behind him, Malorie flashed a thumbs up. Nice! She thought. Now I’m gonna get a lot more people to join! True to his words, Cain had attracted around twenty people to enter but all of them were girls. Malorie doubted any of them had any act

Alya was in the car with Jason, lost in her own thoughts. She was staring outside the window, thinking of what Malorie told her. Jason noticed her absentmindedness. He was driving the car but kept on glancing at her every few minutes. The day’s events really took a toll on her, he thought. “You’ll get used to it,” he said.  “Huh?” Alya blinked. “I said that you’ll get used to the criticisms people are throwing at you,” he repeated. “Don’t beat yourself up over it.
