"I didn't expect you to move on so quickly with someone else."Jane almost dropped the plate she had just finished washing. She never anticipated a time when she would be alone with the man who didn't want to see her anymore. Though... it's tough. Since his arrival, Jane has been keeping her distance, avoiding direct interaction. Occasionally, she just responds with superficial chatter.The beautiful woman tries to compose herself. She can't let herself be affected by his presence. Through the corner of her eye, she notices that he's not far from her, just behind her back. The small kitchen and the arrangement of furniture, so different from her previous home, make their proximity uncomfortably close."What do you need?" Jane asks, trying to keep herself calm. She mustn't let her hands tremble, even though her heart keeps praying for Austin to leave her alone soon.The intimidation Austin imposes on her life makes it hard for Jane to forget that he has no

Fabian grinned widely after once again, going through each page of the contract that had just been signed. His dreams were coming true. He could predict it, but finding the approval signature from the person willing to carry Lavender, it's just so delightful. The euphoria reminded him of what he did with Ursula, Giselle, and Harvey. Just like when he got their approval, the joy that enveloped his heart, everything in his mind and strategic plans, realized and... Boom! They all received such a fantastic reception. His instincts as an art performer rarely missed. That's why when Jane agreed, he was sure this year's show would belong to SEO Fashion. Closed very well, and Fabian also felt like his four pillars were standing. Not standing completely, well, because one of them he'd just started to train to stand up against the world. "You look so happy, Boss." One of the finance division staff entered the room, carrying some documents that needed Fabian's signature

Jane reads the sheets that Brina handed out, outlining the schedule and preparations for the upcoming show. Since Jane has never been familiar with the modeling world, the schedule she has is quite packed and tight. But despite that, she can't complain. All the beauty is at the other end, and it won't be easy to navigate."I'm only giving you a pass today, Olive." Brina speaks to Jane after dealing with the three super noisy girls, which have given Brina a throbbing headache. There's constant complaints ranging from reasonable concerns to what Brina thinks are just their excuses. But no, Brina won't back down.Everyone's had enough fun. Harvey already has a schedule for next week. Giselle is gearing up for a grand event in the Western State. Meanwhile, Ursula has her own agenda as an influencer on a fashion channel. Since the event is broadcast live, Ursula's appearance must be in top condition."Did you hear that, Giselle? Even Olive isn't spared by Brina," Har

The heat hitting him today didn't deter the man neatly dressed in an expensive suit from stepping out of his car. He didn't need a hat just to ward off the sun that could give him a headache. The issues that came his way were much more troubling than just avoiding the sun's heat.His steps lead to a grave he had visited not long ago. The bond formed years ago made occasional visits feel like no trouble amidst his busy work schedule.Once again, he checks his belongings. "Hey, Uncle," he softly greets, placing the bouquet he guarded throughout the journey. "How are you?"No response, just the whisper of the wind. Cool, but it sends shivers down his spine. Did his greeting receive a response? Who knows. Richard didn't want to find out."Does Austin visit often?" He chuckles. "I don't think so. He comes when he needs you. But don't worry. Austin still can't accept your departure. He's still filled with regrets, but sadly, your son is foolish, Uncle."

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
