Renee was signing some files when Raymond walked in. She looked up and smirked like she was expecting him.
“What’s with that face?” Raymond asked, roughing his hair.
“Isn’t it obvious why you are here?” She replied.
Raymond sighed.
“Your motorcycle gas needs a refill?” Renee asked, still looking down at the document.
“Yes…you got that right” Raymond replied cooly, looking down.
Renee sighed and took some cash from her cupboard, she dropped a bundle of it on the table and watched him take it.
Raymond muttered a thank you and made to leave.
“Raymond? Stop acting so strong and apologize to Dad…
Raymond quickly turned
“Even if I apologized, He would still want me to sell the bike which I won’t. I adored it for so long before getting it. I can’t just throw it like it’s some pile of sand”he said
“Raymond, I’m your sister and I’m trying to..
“Then behave like one! Don’t worry, like I said before I’m gonna get a job” Raymond uttered before finally walking out.
Renee sighed deeply and shook her head, disappointed.
“Yes, lift it below your lower lip now. Hold it like it’s fragile. Look away from the camera….Yes, that’s it!” The director said as the photographer took pictures of Bella who kept posing in different ways.
She was contacted that morning for a modeling work. She was asked to model for a new lipstick company.
Bella made few more poses with the beautiful dress and sweet makeup she wore.
“It’s a wrap, guys…Let’s call it done from here!” The director said to everyone.
The crew all shouted a thank you and ran to and fro, trying to get things and everyone in order.
“Here” Bellaās manager ran to her and placed a thick black jacket on her shoulder.
“Thank you, can I have my bag?” She asked.
Her manager nodded and handed her, the bag which she took from him. She opened it and took out a tissue.
“Oh goodness. What kind of lipstick is that, really?” Bella asked as she wiped the pink lipstick away from her lips, with the tissue.
“It’s a new product. What’s wrong with it?” Her manager asked.
“It doesn’t have a good fragrance. They had better work on it. Did any people, organization, company or magazine call me in? I haven’t been getting lot of orders since…Am I getting old or what?” Bella rolled her eyes.
“Bella?” Her manager, Mike called.
She stopped walking and turned to him. He also stopped walking and turned to look at her back.
“Mr Armani asked me to get you?” He said.
Bellaās eyes widened. She looked anxious and a little shocked. Mr Armani is the CEO of her agency which owns her. Her agency, AM Entertainment also houses lots of models, actors, actress, soloist, bands etc.
“I don’t understand? Why did he call for me? Did I do anything wrong? Did anything happen?” She asked.
“How would I know? He saw me rushing into the agency this morning and called me. He asked where you were and I told him you are busy with work. He said he hadn’t been able to reach you since last night and told me to call you in whenever you are available” Mr Mike replied.
“Is that all? Hope he didn’t..
“That’s all, Bella. He didn’t say anything else. If he did, I would have told you” Mike interrupted.
Bella sighed and slowly began to walk away.
Mike followed her. They went outside and he quickly opened the car which she entered.
Mike hopped into the driver’s seat and started driving immediately. Bella who was in deep thoughts kept biting her finger nails.
Bella knocked the door
“Who’s that?” A husky voice sounded.
“Bella” She replied, aloud warmly.
“Oh…Isabella. Come in,, the door is opened” His voice came again.
Bella inhaled, and exhaled deeply,, did the holy trinity sign before pushing the door open. She walked in stylishly.
Armani smiled when he saw her and stood up from his desk. He walked further to the sofa in front and told her to seat in the opposite chair which she did.
He sat down as well and placed a document on the table between them.
“You know what today is?” He started.
Bella lifted her eyes up for a moment and looked down at him.
“I wish I did, sir. Remind me” She replied.
“Well, today is the day your contract ends with AM ENTERTAINMENT
“Oh my! I thought it was next week”Bella gasped
“No, It’s today”
“I forgot absolutely”
“It’s fine. The main reason I called you here was for you to renew your contract with my agency. What do you think?” He asked.
Bella sighed.
“Do you wanna think about it?” He asked.
“No, I…I think I need a change…
Armani laughed.
“Don’t tell me you want to leave my company?”he asked
“Sort of. I’ve been working for you here, for years now. I can’t be stuck in one place. I need a change just like the rest, don’t you think?” Bella asked.
“So, you won’t sign the document? You won’t renew the contract with us?” He asked.
“No sir. I’m going to just look for another company. Thank you so much for your hardwork, care and everything” She said and stood up.
Bella gave him a bow before turning to walk.
“No one is gonna sign a single f*cking mother like you! You know I’m just managing you, right?!. You’re worthless. Other models are better and younger than you” Armaniās husky voice came with deep harshness.
Bella scoffed.
“And that’s the reason why I would love to change my agency. The CEO is a big sore in the ass” She thought, shook her head and walked out of the office.
Bella went outside and opened the car which she entered.Mike was still there.
“So, what’s up? What did he say? What did you both talk about?” He asked.
Bella kept quiet. She was thinking hard.
“Hello….?. What happened in there. Talk to..
“Mike?!” She suddenly called, almost triggering fear into him.
“Yes? Yes? What’s it?” He asked.
“Do you know any good agency recruiting and signing new and old model?” She asked.
“Huh? Why are you asking?”
“Can you answer my question!”
“Uhm…There are a lot but for now. I would prefer either PECULIAR EntertainmentāMike replied
“Which model are housing there?” Bella asked.
“Uhm…We have kelvin Hoffman and more in other Entertainment.
“You know what, Let’s meet with the CEO in Peculiar Entertainment”
“What? Now? Why? Talk to me..
“Let’s go now! Let’s drive! I’m gonna talk to you later, okay?”
“Urgh! Okay…Here I go” Mike uttered and drove off from sight.
Dora lifted her head from the bed and yawned lazily. She looked around in surprise.
“How did I get here? I remember dozing off on the counter after that heavy drinking” She thought.
“Whatever” She yawned again, waving the thoughts aside.
“Or did Kay take me in?” She chuckled, bringing the thoughts back.
“Wait! What happened last night after I got drunk? Hope I didn’t do a mistake?” She thought.
She tried her best to recall that night and after remembering the phone call she had with her mum, she shouted in a loud voice.
“What the f*ck! What was I talking about? NY?! What New York? Darn it! I’m in Italy,, not NY! What NY meal was I talking about? I haven’t even tasted their food since my mother gave birth to me! What’s wrong with you, Dora! You have gone mad!” She shouted at herself.
Dora stood up and began to pace around the whole room.She was glad she had the place to herself. She didn’t see Avia in there and she was even thankful she wasn’t there.
“What do I do now? No, I can’t tell her I’m in Italy anymore,, It’s too late! The only choice I have is to get another flight ticket.. Darn it! It’s too expensive! Whatever, I’m gonna use all my money in my account and get it. I don’t care! That’s what I’m gonna do. I’m gonna hurry to the bank now, withdraw all my money and hurry back to NY But why does this misfortune have to happen to me? Why? Why? Why?” She thought.
Dora sighed and hurried downstairs heading to the restaurant.
Thereās a restaurant beside the mansion,She took her phone and went there. She gasped when she saw people already in the restaurant, eating and ordering.
She saw Avia attending to them. Dora hissed and strained her eyes to look for Kayden.
She finally saw him talking to some customers kindly. She smiled almost drooling when her ringtone cut her off.
She quickly went to the room, sat on the bed and looked at her phone. It was an unknown number.
“Huh? Who could this be?” She said inwardly and picked the call.
“Hello? Who is this, please?” She asked, with the phone against her ear.
“Hello?” A manly and warm voice came in.
“Huh? Sorry…whoās this please?” Dora asked.
“Are you alone right now?” The warm sweet voice came again Dora to swallow hard
