Gina’s POV

Hearing my uncle’s words, Mum and I looked at each other and burst into laughter. It was the funniest thing we had heard. Did he think he was talking to teenagers he could command?

“Gabriel, it seems your memory needs to be checked,” Mum said. Her voice was cold, and even though she was not speaking to me, I felt a chill.

I noticed my uncle lower his head.

Aunty Winter, of course, would not let it go. She always felt that my uncle had been controlled by my father when he was

    Gina's POV The perfume project was divided into three different shoots. The Lopez Group took the launch very seriously, so every detail was carefully planned. More importantly, my identity as GG had to remain hidden. Apart from Mum, Karl, and Lisa, nobody in the production team was allowed to see my full face. Even during filming, most of my face remained covered with my signature silver mask. Karl had ensured this mask was made. It covered enough to keep my identity hidden but exposed enough to cause discussions. The production team knew that GG had strict privacy rules written into the contract. On the first shooting day, we filmed the teaser video. The studio was darker than I expected. Golden lights reflected softly across the black walls while perfume bottles were displayed inside glass cases. Before leaving the makeup room, Mum carefully adjusted my silver mask one last time. Only the left side of my face was visible while the other half remained covered. "You look beau

    Grace's POV "You can. Frankly speaking, if you were not her mum, she might fail to invite you to be her makeup artist. Usually, because of keeping her identity hidden, she does not use makeup. This time we would let her do some, as a part of her face is to be used," Karl said. Actually, I had mixed feelings about the entire situation. These past few days, I had been looking at news about the Lopez family. There was no doubt that the current chairman was my younger brother, and he had been for over ten years now. If he was back in the country and had taken over power, why had he not come looking for me? I understood that our family was special, so I wanted to find an opportunity to investigate. Hearing that the couple took this launch seriously and might be present, I decided to take the chance. Perhaps I would investigate quietly. After all, it was possible my brother was being manipulated by those uncles and had no real power to protect himself, hence he did not bother to reconn

    NarratorA private room in a restaurant."Mum, why did you suddenly ask to see me?" Mrs. Peterson asked.An elderly woman was sitting across from her. This was the same woman who had shared a table with Grace and Gina at the anniversary party."She is back," Leah said.Mrs. Peterson frowned. "Mum, what are you talking about?" she asked."Ellen Lopez," Leah said.Mrs. Peterson, who had just picked up her teacup, suddenly froze."What do you mean?" she asked. "Did you not say that as long as Brother never searched for her, she would not return on her own?""I did say so. Back then, Madam had given her those instructions, but who can predict everything in life?" Leah looked helpless.Mrs. Peterson frowned. "What now?" she asked. She did not want anything that could affect her life."I do not know if the siblings will meet, but I asked you out to remind you to stop being unreasonable. You have spent the last twenty years by his side. That should count for something. But if you keep causin

  • Innocent scandal with Mr PR    192 Coincidence

    Gina's POV I did not go to the office on Wednesday, instead I went straight to Karl's studio. We went over the contract the Lopez Group had sent. "This offer is quite good, it is almost the same price they would pay a top star," I said. Karl nodded in agreement, "But with this, you can't endorse any other products for the next half a year," he said. I nodded my head, but still felt that this offer was indeed too good. "They also want to know your real identity. With it, they promise to sign confidential documents. Only about four or five people in total from their side would be aware," Karl continued to explain, but I did not mind much. I had already made up my mind to step out of the mask, so it really no longer mattered how soon. After going through other minor details, we set out together with my assistant to the Lopez Group. I had my mask on when we arrived. The front desk was already notified, so we were led straight to the board room on the tenth floor. "Welcome," a man

    Gina's POVI did not expect someone to post the argument with Mom online, neither did I think it would help me clear my name."I think this is the best opportunity to relive your identity as GG," Roland came over to visit that evening and made the suggestion."I know," when Mum noticed the trend, she had also said the same thing. The only problem was that I wanted to wait.Since Emily and Ethan were trying to investigate, I wanted them to make a move first. Actually, it is not that I am vengeful, I just know Emily. Besides if she makes a hug mistake now, Ethan would also be implicated."Then, should I ask Karl to organize a press meeting?" Roland asked."Not yet," I then explained my thoughts to Roland."Even if they are going to make a move against you, it would have to be after the movie premiere. After all, anything that affects you now can affect the movie outcome," Roland said. I felt he had a point.This movie was Emily's comeback and Ethan's work. Nothing can go wrong. "I say w

    NarratorThe next day, news about the incident trended online, especially Grace's words about Emily slandering Gina.The hall the previous night had been filled with reporters and bloggers, so videos of the argument quickly spread across the internet.The discussion online became heated.People who did not know about GL before wanted to find out more about the brand and the mysterious makeup artist behind it.At the same time, the rumors from almost a year ago were dug up again."That is Mrs. Williams. If she says Gina is hardworking, then Emily has always been the thief.""True. She dared to steal GG's song because she mistook the handwriting and thought Gina was the writer since Gina was also in the office.""I have always said she was a thief."Back then, many people had doubted Gina because Emily had brought evidence of registration, but now that the same event had happened with GG, it raised a lot of doubts.But now, things were different.Mrs. Williams's words carried weight.

    Gina’s POV I did my best. Now I could only pray that there were more people who cared about good music. I knew a lot of people might still vote for Emily because they were her fans. I went back to my seat. Roland suddenly took hold of my hand. “Don’t worry, your performance tonight was good,”
