Giselle invited Jane Olive to join the group.
At first, Jane hesitated about whether she should accept Giselle's request to join the chat group that might have been created a long time ago. Who was she to suddenly be in their social circle? But honestly, Jane was thrilled to be warmly accepted by the three of them.
After Fabian's departure, she wanted to rest, knowing that tomorrow would be a long day to get through. She couldn't close her eyes immediately; her mind was focused on Giselle's request on her phone.
(Giselle: Why did it take so long for you to accept?)
(Giselle: Are you already asleep? Oh, you must be tortured by Step-Mom Brina. I feel sorry for your fate, Olive.)
Whether she liked it or not, Jane chuckled. Her hands instinctively replied to Giselle's message.
[Jane.Olive: You're right. Brina is indeed a bit cruel.]
Giselle responded with many eye-rolling emojis. (Giselle: Quickly accept my group join request. It'll be ea

It's been a while since he felt the joy of sitting at the dining table, relishing the served dishes, and filling his stomach."Maria made all of this special for you, Austin," Kate smiles faintly. Her gaze never leaves her son, who has been eagerly waiting for dinner."I haven't had Maria's cooking in a long time."Kate grins thinly. "You rarely have dinner at home, Austin."Austin looks at his mother with an unreadable expression."But I'm glad that you're finally coming home more often and sitting here. Keeping your old mother company for dinner."He sighs softly. "Can we go through dinner comfortably tonight, Mom? Can we?""I won't start anything that makes you uncomfortable, Son.

Jane didn't want to end up in Fabian's car again. She had declined several times, but Fabian always found a way for her to sit there, including using a bit of a threat regarding the results of her recent training. Yet, Jane vividly remembered the praises from Brina and Nico about what she had gone through. Jane restrained herself from complaining because this was the path she had chosen. There was no turning back. Moreover, even if she turned back, the question of how she would support herself kept haunting her. "At the end of the road, there's a popular bakery. Want to stop by?" Fabian broke the silence between them. This ride home, Jane preferred to keep quiet. Not that she didn't want to share her complaints, but she realized one point: Fabian was now her boss. He generously gave her rides for many reasons. That's all Jane could think of. She didn't want to speculate too much weird stuff because... the show wasn't over yet. There was a growing sense of wor

"Even though I think tonight's dinner is ordinary, the impact of your arrival is definitely not ordinary."Giselle sighs. "Alright, let's go. I don't like lingering there."The assistant, who is with Giselle, quickly follows. She makes sure to inform the driver to be ready in the lobby. Giselle doesn't like waiting for too long there.

Although parts of her body are sore from the intense pre-weekend workout. She had to wear numerous dresses and accessories, apparently as an experiment to train her body balance for walking on the catwalk.Not sparing any effort, a crown with many crystal strands resembling dewdrops is placed on her head. If it were fake, Jane might not worry too much about slipping. However, Brina casually mentioned that the crown is made of genuine Swarovski crystals. Its wide surface is polished with gold and adorned with other beautiful gemstones.What if Jane and the crown fall?

Calysta places the wine glass down with a smile that refuses to fade. Her eyes gaze joyfully at the conversation partner who just provided crucial information."You really are reliable, Aunt Samantha."The middle-aged woman smiles proudly. "I'm much happier when you can rely on me.""Why would I reject your help?" Calysta chuckles. "You've always supported me for a long time, Aunt. There's no way I could just forget you."Samantha waves her hand with a blushing face. "I always felt you were the most deserving to be Austin's wife, not that burdensome woman. Why would my nephew be foolish enough to accept her just like that?"The smile on Calysta's face disappears, replaced by a look of sadness and melancholy. Even her shoulders seem to sag weakly, as if Samantha's words had genuinely hurt her deeply. "Austin said he did it all reluctantly.""You're right. It's all because of Kate's persuasion! That woman is no different from Jane. Just a burd

"Why are you awake?""Thirsty," Harvey replies, squinting a bit suspiciously.

Her training session is nearing its end, and she needs to master the stage quickly. Brina mentioned that Jane's mistakes have been decreasing.Brina herself is amazed; Jane quickly grasps everything she directs. Could it be because of the week Jane spent with those three noisy models? If it could bring such a drastic change, maybe Brina would loosen the training schedule a bit.
