"Thank you to all my media friends for coming," Celine said with a faint smile. "Thank you also to my agency who came to accompany me. I didn't expect to be this enthusiastic." She laughed."We are looking forward to your clarification, Miss Celine.""Can we start the Q&A already?"Celine dissolved into laughter even more. A crisp laugh, which soon filled the meeting room, which was filled with many journalists. Celine was deliberately relaxed, why should she be tense and look stiff? She was used to all this."I forgot something important. Maybe it's because I don't see each other often because I'm so busy," Celine chuckled but her eyes were on Jacob's left side. "My family... and my future husband's family."Immediately, the reporters became rowdy. Some gave Celine a standing ovation and congratulated her."I've known Jacob Desmond for a long time. Maybe ten years ago. At that time, I was just amazed and thought, can I have a man like J

The question just now made the eyes of Cristine, Grace, and Edgar look wary. To counteract this, Cristine chose not to give any response. "As a mother who loves her son so much, I want them both to have a happy ending. After all, you can see how passionate the love between them is, right? For things beyond their happiness, I choose to remain silent. I just want simple things as a mother."But Cristine's eyes remained fixed on Grace with wonder. While Grace herself did not take her eyes off the questioner. A man wearing thick glasses, with a notepad in his hand and a pen that didn't stop scratching ink on it. One of his hands directed the recorder while occasionally fixing the small mic attached to the collar of his clothes.Wearing a hat bearing the insignia of one of the news media, which Grace immediately paid special attention to. She would find out who had told the man to come here. And whether the news media had received an invitation from Cristine, the owner of t

"Are you sure you don't need to be escorted?" Jacob asked once again. Although Celine's attitude had changed drastically since then, the man understood. What had happened at the press conference had clearly caused concern for the girl who now preferred to keep a straight face.Even the invitation to lunch that Jacob offered her did not get a response at all.This time, Jacob's question did not get an answer. Celine instead chose to pull the lever of the open door but Jacob swiftly held back."Celine," he said, half pleading. "I know you're still thinking about the worst possibilities but trust me, we won't stay silent.""Really?" asked Celine with her eyes squinting suspiciously. "Desmond can't even find out who the journalist is who asked the question that made my heart stop beating. Isn't he? Where is your influence then? And that's what you call having a lot of supporters?" Celine chuckled. "I misplaced my trust. Even though I have no problem going bac

"Don't you still want to activate your cell phone?" asked Karen with a grumble. She folded her arms across her chest with her eyes never far from Celine's antics which she found annoying.Why do they have to date on their cell phones?!"Do you mind?" asked Celine with a spoiled whimper."No," Karen said with a long sigh. In the end, she couldn't prevent Celine from dominating her cell phone. Using it as she pleased to chat intimately with Bryan. She didn't know what they were talking about, but Karen guessed that Celine was thrilled when she got a reply from a man who Karen recognized as handsome.But unfortunately... too risky to approach let alone reach out to.

It was flooded with congratulations because their love story was epic to follow - the story of a long-lost, unrequited love, a secret admirer, who was suddenly reciprocated. But many also have doubts because Celine is currently at the highest point. Many of the questions were directed at Jacob Desmond.And because of that, Celine was amused. Especially since since morning, Karen has been supplying her with various comments coming from Celine's fans in the comments column of Jacob's account."I wonder, if Celine wasn't a popular model, would Jacob Desmond still accept Celine's love?""Jacob looks good, he deserves to be with Celine. I congratulate you on your relationship. Take care of our Princess always.""I'm sure, if Celine wasn't the current Celine, Jacob wouldn't accept her anymore. Celine was just a grain of dust in his eyes. But now? Celine is like a star. Lucky Jacob."

On the way to the set, Celine chose to enjoy her apple peel. Occasionally noticing the bracelet that Grace had given her this morning. the pearls as decorations in between the gold bands were woven so perfectly, they fit perfectly around Celine's wrist. "Grace always knows the best quality. I wonder where she got such an expensive gift."Karen, who had been watching the worksheet on her tablet screen, while occasionally shaking her head in wonder at Celine's childlike behavior, could only say, "Don't you have a similar bracelet? I remember you got it from Mr. Johansen at the banquet one year ago."Celine spluttered. "Don't you remind me of that old man with many wants." But then, Celine smiled cheerfully. "You know, the most expensive quality pearls in the world come from the South Sea? They pay attention to every detail of the Pearl making process which takes quite a long time. Once they have enough and know when the harvest is best, the pearls are selected in various qualities. And

The filming process that Celine underwent did not encounter any obstacles at all. If anything, there were only a few and they were quickly overcome. Mostly because the weather was quite windy. Making shooting a little constrained. Some of the properties that were supposed to be used had to be ensured that there was no danger to the models who collaborated.And as Celine predicted, her arrival was immediately greeted with congratulations because the news spread in the mass media so widely. Not infrequently, Celine also received special congratulations addressed directly to her agency. But for the time being, Celine could only respond with a friendly smile.So that the charade continues to go well. As if the announcement of her relationship with Desmond's family made her happy."I didn't realize you were from the Langham family," Tia said. One of the models who participated in the same filming process as Celine. Although Tia's part in the process this time was not too much, but for a ju

One time... Celine still ignored.Twice... Celine chuckled in annoyance.Three times ... Celine couldn't help but answer the phone call that was directed at her."I told you, my cell phone should be off," Celine said with an annoyed look in her eyes to Karen. Although Celine was on a break after such a fun photo shoot, it didn't mean she wanted to interact with her cell phone. Especially the cell phone where Jacob often contacted her.Karen just grinned innocently. "You better talk soon. It's not good for Jacob to know anything about you. He might get even more suspicious."Actually, Karen's words had a point, but Celine was most reluctant if she had to hear Jacob's voice and deal with the man. It was enough that in front of many cameras she acted and acted, even though she was originally very disgusted and did not want to be too close.But ... never mind, Celine had no choice but to swipe the green icon that appeared in the background. "Hello, darling," she said, smiling brightly. Ev

"Are you still upset?" asked Bryan as he glanced at the girl sitting casually beside him. The choice of clothes that he thought so reflected how Celine looked like, made Bryan not satisfied just looking at her for a while. But what else could he do, he couldn't drive in a distracted state.He might crash into a divider and end up in the news."A little," Celine says with a long sigh. "Karen does go too far sometimes.""I guess she does worry about you."Celine just shrugged in response. "Is it far enough away? We've been through this hilly area for almost half an hour.""Just a little more."Celine frowned. "I'm not a Matilda you can lie to."Bryan laughed at that remark. "Speaking of Matilda, next week is her first performance on the school stage. I hope she's not too busy with meetings.""You should come, Bryan. A child's main support is their parents. No matter how busy you are, if you can spare the time, Matilda will never forget it in her life."Bryan listened carefully to Celine

Karen stretched out her arms. Inhaling the air as freely as possible because it was so fresh and soothing. The breeze of the afternoon plus the view of the orange-colored sky, really spoiled the eyes. She had changed into more casual clothes, sitting on one of the chairs available in the back garden area. She tightened her woolen cardigan slightly as the temperature began to drop. "It's different for rich people to buy a house to rest in," she said as she sipped the coffee she had just made. "Um... it's delicious. Especially the snacks provided in this house. Gosh, maybe if Celine asked me to stay here for a week I wouldn't mind."But... Karen spluttered. "It's delicious." The coffee she had just savored tasted a little, placed immediately on a nearby table. "I might get scolded by Justin's boss." She quickly took out her cell phone and checked her notifications in case there was a message back from her boss. Thankfully, there wasn't. The last piece of news Karen gave Justin
