NARRATIVE "One, two, three...yes. Give me another, that's good. Awesome." Arsenio said as he took shots of the model in his private studio. Some top clients wouldn't work with his agency except he's the one to take the shots of them. Few minutes later, he was done for the moment at least. "Let's take five, everyone." He said, giving the camera to an assistant while he collected his phone from another and walked out of the studio, placing a call to someone. "Hey beautiful. How's the work coming?" He asked smilingly, stopping and leaning against a pillar outside the studio. "You can pretty much guess that. It's overwhelming Arsenio but I'm quite sure we would be able to meet up with the demands, soon." Adele poutingly replied from her end, while working her hands through the material before her. Her phone pressed between her shoulder and her head. Arsenio smiled on hearing her words. "I know you can. How about hiring some more hands to aid in making the work a bit fast

ADELE'S POVI stared at the brown leather wristwatch I had left on my vanity. I still had it wrapped up in the little box with the pink ribbon around it. After several attempts to discard it failed__as I felt bad to throw it away given how expensive it was, I finally made up my mind to give it to Mira, my sales manager.Dragging my feet away from the vanity, I walked to my closest and picked out a simple outfit to wear. I still have tons of work at the company and I'm not in the mood to be all dolled up when hundreds of halfmade designs are screaming my name and begging for my attention.About thirty minutes later, I drove myself to work. Given my personality, I love driving to work myself so I didn't bother hiring someone; except I'm attending a show, gala or the red carpet.The security at the gate of my company welcomed me respectfully as usual and I stepped out of my car the moment I drove in and instructed one of the guards to park it carefully. I have fleet of cars but of course,

NARRATIVE"Carlo Rodriguez!" Adele spat, her expression getting clouded by rage instantly. She made no attempt in covering her spite on seeing him again_the handsome man who once meant everything to her. Looking at him, she wouldn't deny he was more matured, more masculine and much more dreamy. But now, all her heart saw was a monster appearing before her. "How dare you show your face to me again!"Carlo couldn't help but smile sadly, even though she uttered his name in hate, he was strangely glad to hear her say it again. He was impressed by her moves just now against the gangster who wanted to molest her. She was no damsel in distress again and somehow, he knew he caused it. She had built a tough wall around her and wouldn't let anyone hurt her easily again. She saved herself before he even got to her side and that was something Carlo felt strangely uncomfortable about.He was glad she was able to defend herself but at same time, he was sad because she didn't give him the chance to

NARRATIVE Adele looked between her friends, eager to know what's up. What was making them so edgy. "Actually, we recently found out about Carlo. He was alive unlike how we assumed." Lu Cheng finally announced as they keenly watch Adele's reaction to this news. Adele had a blank expression on her face such that they couldn't read what she was thinking. Adele finally let out a sigh, leaning backwards and running a hand through her hair. Her friends have been so sincere and had stayed true with her despite all the years but she was the one who hadn't been sincere. She didn't tell them about getting Carlo's packages or even meeting him. She couldn't bring herself to tell them again as she worried that she had troubled them a lot already with her issues. Also, she didn't consider it much of a big deal as she already told him off and it seemed he obeyed. How was she to start apologizing for her insincerity with them since several weeks now? However, Adele knew she had to star

NARRATIVE In a black van speeding down the highway towards Washington DC, two young men_Claire Rock's subordinates, were singing loudly and vibing along to the pop music blasting from the van speakers totally oblivious of the black sedan car tailing them. Not long afterwards, they arrived at a checkpoint and on looking out the window, one of them sighted the police and almost panicked but his partner was quick to give him a warning glare. "Be cool! Remember what the boss had said. If we are found out, we'll be the ones going down not her. Do you understand?!" The second guy swallowed and hurriedly nodded, pushing his uneasiness aside and keeping a straight face. The car behind belonged to none other than Carlo's subordinates. They've been instructed to make sure things fall accordingly as they'd planned. Some minutes later, it was their turn to get inspected. The first guy lowered the glass of the Van's door. "Good day, officer." They greeted the policeman at the side of the
