Morning.The Topher mansion.Felix nodded as the helpers brought in breakfast for Gemma. She sat at one end of the dining table, which had two chairs in each side and one at each end of the table.Jake walked down the stairs in his usual aura but his mother noticed something different about him this morning; he seemed happy."Good morning." She smiled when he greeted.The table was quiet as they both ate and soon, Jake stood to leave."Is that all you will be having?" She asked, because he ate just little."Yes, excuse me." He said and left for the car waiting for him out front at the entrance of the mansion.*******A mini bus was sent to the grande hotel to transport the girls to the Tn studio.The bus didn't go the same way they had taken from the airport, so the girls had a look at another part of the city.Victoria and Amber sat next to each other this time. The city was more beautiful than it was yesterday,now in daylight. The bus stopped in front of a tall building. It's entr
"Nahh, some here are actually high class, some are professionals, you'll know them when you see them, trust me."Kim said."What do you mean high class?""Well, the models with rich parents and all that.""If they have rich parents and stuff, why are they here then? Show off." Victoria scoffed and Kim chuckled at her question."Now that's one thing I love about Brown, everyone's equal here, whether you're affluent or not, a trainer or a paid model, Brown makes sure everyone gets a chance to audition for these companies.""How long have you been part of the brand, it's like you know everything around here.""Just a year, don't mind me I frain a lot." Kim smiled and Victoria could see her dimples dotted on both sides of her cheeks."Tori, just found out there's an audition scheduled." Amber came up to them."She just told me." Victoria said referring to Kim."So do you know if we're going to be part of it?"Amber asked both girls in front of her."C'mon Amber,we don't even know what the a
At the Tn headquarters."I've got the files you asked for, sir." Jake looked up when drew drop the files on the desk. "I've also sent the soft copies to your laptop." Drew stood waiting for Jake to say something but he just skimmed through the files in front of him.Drew turned to leave, but Jake called him back."Drew?" "Sir.""I want to ask you something, come sit here." Jake said closing the file, he currently looked at.Drew sat on the office chair opposite Jake, wondering what Jake had to ask him."How do you tell a woman you love her, do you just tell her?" Jake had never been with a woman, he didn't know how these things worked."I don't know...." The words fell out of Drew's mouth, he never imagined his boss ask him such."What did you say the first time you met your fiancee?" Jake was looking directly at him, genuinely eager to learn."I...um, I think I said, hey can I buy you a drink." Drew recalled."It was at a bar." He added smiling."Do you remember the lady who entered
Three cars were parked on the road side, near one of the parks in city A. Gemma sat in one of them waiting for her nephew.One of the securities with her opened the door to the backseat of the car for Brown to join her."Auntie." Brown smiled on seeing Gemma. She was okay with his informality, so she reciprocated with a short lasting smile."How's my brother?" She asked."Dad's out of the country, i thought you'd know.""I know he's not in the country, I just haven't talked to him in a while.""Oh Okay. Why didn't you just invite me to the mansion, I still would have made it even if it were urgent.""I don't want Jake to find out that we met, any of the staffs could let him know. It's about your recent private meetings with him." She replied waiting for his reaction."Private meeting?" Brown asked with a chuckle." I won't call it that, I mean his assistant was there the whole time, except for that second time when he was asking about that lady and.....""Which lady?" She had to ask."
Next day.Tn studio."Brown you asked for me?" Someone walked into Brown's office.Brown looked up from the news magazine he was reading to see Chloe."Sit." She sat opposite him. Brown rubbed his palm against his face for a few seconds before he spoke."It came to my notice that you had a little brawl yesterday with some of our new models." Brown said drumming his fingers at the edge of the desk."Brawl? I won't call it that.""What was it about?""So...this girl bumps into me, normally you'd expect a person to apologize but she didn't, I just had to explain to her how to say sorry." "The CCTV says something different." He looked at her."Okay, we bumped into each other...." She was cut short by Brown."Chloe....just stop." She looked away in shame, she had forgotten about the CCTV. "Look, I know how much your career means to you.""It means a lot." She nodded."I want to plead with you, right here and right now, do stay away from this kind of trouble because the next time my team g
"it's beautiful right?" Chloe said from behind her."Oh yeah it is.""Beautiful enough for you to want to stay forever?" Chloe asked and Victoria found it weird."Not really." Victoria chuckled, wondering why she'd ask that."What about spending a night?""Hmmn?" Victoria got confused."You find it beautiful right, I thought you might like to spend the night here." Chloe smiled again and Victoria didn't feel like having the conversation anymore so she thought she should change the topic."I like the flowers here, the colours, and how they smell....""You should take pictures of them." Chloe interrupted."I guess." Victoria said reaching into her bag for her phone. It wasn't there."I think my phone's in your car." Victoria said even though she didn't remember using it in the car."Oh that's bad, let me go get it for you then." Chloe smiled. "Just wait here.""Okay." Victoria wondered what got into her to make her act all nice like that.**********Meanwhile, leaving the Tn headquarters
Victoria sat on the train just tapping her foot. It seemed to be getting darker outside. There was a teenager sitting next to her, who was texting on his phone, so she peeped to check the time, it was 6:14 since she didn't have a wristwatch on.'Twelfth station.' She heard the train speaker announce. The doors opened and she stepped out. Climbing up the stairs that lead out of the subway, she saw a cab parked, waiting for passengers."Can you take me to grande hotel?" She said at the driver's window."You've got fare?""Yes.""Okay get in." He opened the car lock and she got in and he began to drive.*********Tn studio"Who is it?" Brown asked looking up from his tablet, when he heard a knock." Oh, it's you, Amber, right?""Yes.""Why are you still here, it's..." Brown stopped and looked at the time."It's almost seven.""I know...I was waiting for Tori....""Tori? Who's that?""Victoria, She isn't back yet, I called her phone but she isn't answering, and Brie just called to let me k
Tn headquarters.Brown walked out of the elevator when it reached the top floor. Drew was waiting for him."Is he finished with his meeting?" Brown asked as they walked to Jake's office. "Yes, and he knows," Drew said, making Brown stop to look at him."You told him?""He was there, the whole time of our call.""Are you joking?""I'm not, when you called, he was having a virtual meeting, but signaled me to take the call since it was you.""Shit." Brown slapped his forehead."Good thing you said it was your fault the whole time," Drew said in a bid to ease him.Reaching Jake's office, Brown saw someone else talking to Jake. He turned back to Drew, with a ' Should I leave' look."Evan's here to help," Drew whispered to him."We've tracked the phone's location." Evan left a tablet on the table, so Jake could see for himself.After he had looked at it, he raised his head and his eyes fell on Brown. Brown immediately looked downwards to avoid Jake's dark eyes."How did this happen? You sa
