Jane smiled with all grace, she couldn't say a word nor make it obvious she wasn't the real performer of the night. She walked towards the applauding audience and gave a gentle bow. Everything seems to be going just how she wants it, heading back she gently pulls over the dress to reveal her slender legs, it was more of a flash. She inwardly prayed this attempt of hers will be enough to reveal who she really is.
dave Continued searching online, on the Galaxy Gala, webpage, but none of the comments mentioned anything or compared Leslie to Jane which was a relief, it was only covered with pictures of the models but most especially Jane.
she was the talk of the show and everyone was already speculating about her being the winner of tonight's event. He searched for a while to see if any of the comments mentioned her to be who she really is, but no one had said anything. Dave leans back on the chair with a heavy sigh.
“Why are you so worked up? She has been out of the industry for quite a while and it will be hard for people to notice her just based on her legs. Well, I must say she is doing a good job, making you even more popular and recognized. I know after the Galaxy Gala, every designer in the country and some abroad will want you as the face of their products.”
Leslie could not help but smile from ear to ear. She has been hoping for the day she will be able to stand on the runway and no one will have to compare her to Jane, that will be her biggest achievement, and looking at it, it was soon to be realized. dave smiles seeing how excited his girlfriend was. He settles down with her.
Everyone was still searching on random websites for clues about the mysterious lady with long legs. No one for one believed it was Leslie, and why will she change from wearing a spectacular outfit to something so nice yet ravishing at the other? This thought kept the netizens up and searching. Comparing photos of previous models and event who had retired and was living a quiet life away from the media.
Damon Miles walks up to her with a straight yet friendly face. “Wow, since Miss Jane has the same outfit as mine, I wouldn't mind taking the honor of being her first dance partner.” no one understood what he meant, but soon it was all clear as the ball floor, soon was lightened up, and slow classic music played.
This was not just amazing but as well beyond belief. He seldom attends events as such and does not take it easy with fake hyper using him as the target. “May I have the honor?” he gives his hand, which she gladly receives with a sweet smile.
To others it was just a coincidence, however, this newly married couple couldn't help but take the opportunity to have their first dance as husband and wife. When they were done, Damon bent to his knee and put an ankle bracelet around her leg. ‘I'm sorry I am not so good at dancing reason why I made you lose it” he walks away from her to let her savor the moment, it was his way of helping her get what she wanted without having to dirty her name.
“OH MY….IS THAT THE MODEL WITH THE LONG LEGS FROM EARLIER? I KNEW IT, IT HAS BEEN OUT J BABY ALL THIS WHILE” one of the audience screamed which drew the attention of others, and indeed her legs said it all.
It was rumored that after she got blacklisted, her status completely deteriorated. She was even worse off than unsigned models. Reporters surrounded her each asking several questions which left her at a loss of words.
“Hello everyone, I am so sorry but I dont think I am the model you are searching for?” her words were heard but no one was taking it to be true, if she wanted to clear her name then she will have to put in more effort.
“If Miss Jane is sure and certain she was the model from earlier on representing Leslie, which coincidentally your best friend, then you wouldn't mind putting on this mask, it's the only way the world wants you to clear your name and it will be an injustice to the other models it's your best friend wear a crown which is originally not hers”...........”........... I wouldn't say she deserves it as well” another Reporter chips in.
“I really am sorry for the blow-up in tonight's events” She takes the mask and wore it with her slender hands. It all fell into place and just when everyone was about to go into another Frenzy.
The guards of the wealthy heir and founder of key light entertainment. He was late and had promised Leslie he was going to be there for her, no matter the circumstances. He just arrived from a business conference and had no idea, the models had taken off their masks. He walks up to Jane taking her for Leslie.
walked up to her, extremely impressed with her performance. He wasn't aware Jane was the one behind the mask hence he went with a hug. He is a man of noble character and has had meals a couple of times with Leslie. The crowd exploded with shock, it was speculation they were dating, but seeing he could not tell the difference as well only made matters worst.
“Thank you for a spectacular performance, Leslie. Be rest assured I will be waiting to take your hand on the international runway” he pulls away from the hug. Jane felt uncomfortable, but wouldn't say a word. She had this adorable smile plastered all over her face which made Kenric, even more happy.
“Jane, it's actually Miss Jane”….a reporter said and the others could not stop taking pictures of the moment in no time. The headlines all were flowing with her and pictures of years ago and now, RETURN OF MODEL, DIVA JANE COWELL, HITS SPARKS ON THE GALAXY ART NIGHT GALA.
“Miss Jane, could you please explain what's happening, why were you in the place of your best friend? Did your fiancee force you to????/The speculations were never ending and as such Jane just gave a simple bow.
“I'm extremely sorrow to the community for my actions today” She walks out but the questions did not stop.
“And who says you are free to leave? my dear after causing so much trouble and as a once famous model, how dare you try to take away Leslie’s job? It all seems you are trying to take advantage of her being injured to rise back to fame” Everyone was stunned, yes they were aware Leslie was injured but seeing Jane replacing her not only makes sense but puts everything in its place. The reporters were not letting her leave, and she was getting question after question, unable to answer any, the crowd was getting even thicker making it very hard for her to breathe amidst everything. With the questions, came insults and the insults targeted her directly, they were fierce with their words and their looks did not look, friendly at all. “Leslie should be the spokesperson, not you….. that's her crown take it off” Jane was swiftly forced to withdraw as reporters surrounded her, some even pushed her at this moment adding to the insults. “I am going to sue Davious Entertainment, I wanted Leslie
It was clear to all Jane was digging her own grave but Damon was not going to stand by the side and let her fall without helping her up halfway through the tunnel. It was his own little way of showing his wife, I've got your back no matter the circumstances. Everyone who had spoken badly and left bad comments about her in the present and online began to delete and retrieve their words. They could afford to destroy, Jane within the blink of an eye, but they couldn't not afford to go on the bad side of Damon. His company was not only the biggest in the entertainment industry but also internationally. Gain’s designer turn to Damon and said with a little smile, trying so much to hold back her tears. “I am so sorry for my outburst and incompetence sir Miller” She was trying so much to hold her tears that the veins on her forehead were popping up, clearly visible and capturable by the cameras. It was not an easy apology knowing fully well, her career was basically over as of the moment she
The couple drove in absolute silence, Jane had so much going through her mind that she dared not say out loud. Amidst the chaos of the day, Damon has put a little something in place for her, he was not sure of her taste hence it was nothing particular. She thought for a while and finally spoke up. “I know you want to take me out of this, but it is my mess and I want to clear it up alone. It does hurt and it will not bring me any satisfaction if they are let off the hook so quickly and easily. I want you to be in the dark, let me rise up and defend my name.” Damon could not help but admire the woman sitting right next to him. He did not object to her, he knew just how much she was hurting. No woman marries a man out of spite she must really be bottling so much in there. “I'm so honored you did not reveal our relationship, I know how important you are within this circle and things will definitely take a new turn if people should come to know you are my husband.” she was interrupted b
Damon and Jane got home in no time, the traffic in the district area wasn't as bad as that of center town. She was amazed at what her eyes could see. It wasn't just beautiful but breathtaking. A quiet neighborhood, well guarded and secured, the gate guard gave a simple bow to them when they drove by. Jane could not resist the urge to roll down the windows and let the air hit her in the face. It felt so good to be free, thinking of how her life has been in the last years, only fueled her anger even more. He felt good seeing her all relaxed and free-minded despite her Present situation. Damon soon pulled up to the driveway of a huge mansion, well-designed and spacious from the outside, she could see the extending garden from a mile away and the turn which led to the backyard. She stepped out with him, a maid came forward taking whatever was in the car and leaving without a sound. “Welcome home” she heard him wipers right below her neck as he pulled her in for a hug, to others this was
Jane could feel herself getting wet, with every inch he took, her breath seemed to seize ten times faster. “I will take my bath” She runs into the bathroom, and Damon smiles sheepishly behind her. He knew he had to take things slow with her, however, with the way she looked and how beautiful she was, it was going to be a hard journey. The phone goes off, right close to him, he takes a glance at the caller ID and it reads Dave. He picks up the phone and places the call on the loudspeaker. “Jane, what have you done? Where the hell are you? How can you make such when you know Leslie can't handle stress at the moment? Jane for fuck sake, she is your best friend and has health issues at the moment do you want her to die?” Damon listened carefully, he so much wanted to smash this bastard in the face however he had to play cool. E had made a promise to Jane not to interfere with the situation. “Hello sir, thanks for calling, Miss Jane is drunk as of the moment and we are closed, and trying
As the king of the mighty entertainment industry, Damon wondered how his wife would turn situations around in her favor. Jane knew just how dangerous her problem was, she waited for a while and soon Pamela arrived. Both ladies had a good chat while heading to the company, it was time for a good show.50 minutes Pamela and Jane arrived at the company just in time to see the legal committee of Dave Entertainment leaving Dave’s office. She was quickly approached. “Miss Jane, we are so happy you could make it today. In favor of the problem caused at the Galaxy show, we would like to chat with you in President Dave’s office.” The head of the Legal team, walked her to the office, while Pamela was refused access. Dave knew she was the one who leaked most of the information about Leslie online however he had no evidence to support his claims, he was ready to learn if she was in cohort with Jane or not. Jane walked through closely followed by others. The conference room was filled with the le
Every word that left Dave's mouth made Jane regret the years she had to spend on him even more. This was a man who promised to take care of her, a man who promised to love and no other, the same man she had to leave her loved ones for and fight against the world just to be with him, yet she is nothing but a sacrificial lamb in his eyes. On looking at her Dave realized the impact of his words and stretched out his hand to her but it was shoved away with so much strength making him struggle to keep his balance. “I know you are angry, but Jane you and everyone know just how we started, We have gone too far to lose everything we have gained over the years. Your career is over and we will soon get married so I really dont want you to ruin my career as well. Remember no man wants to marry a woman who will ruin his life” his words were quick, sharp, and peicing. Every inch of it hit her harder than the previous one, she was nothing to him but a punching bag, a player always to fall back on
Jane turned to Dave who looked more like a ghost, this was not what he wanted, his aim was to clear the name of the company and not have Jane break down in tears before the media. “‘Do you care to explain? She is my best friend, Dave, she is my friend, a sister, and you, my fiancee, choose to sleep around with her? How could you, how dare you, after everything we've been through”’ Jane held her heart as tears streamed down her face, Dave took out his and saw everything. It included pictures of him and Leslie, he had no idea someone had been following him secretly. “‘I …….I did not do anything, this is …..this is photoshopped”’ Jane laughed, yes she knew Dave better than anyone else, of course he was going to say such, she expected him to say it was all fake and such she was ready and prepared to handle everything. “‘Okay, I trust you and Leslie, there is no way you will betray me, we can test the authenticity of these photos. Please anyone can help”’ some of the reporters and viewer
