Jacob. D :
I didn't expect to get your cell phone number, Celine. It's like getting a treasure, you know. Sounds like an exaggeration but I don't think so. By the way, are you still in Yazeran? Your agency told me that you're still engaged in cooperation there. I arrive in Yazeran tomorrow morning, I have something to take care of in the Yuen Peninsula. Can we meet? If so, I'll arrange for a driver to pick you up.
The message came in while Celine was still doing some photo shoots. This was followed by a short interview for an exclusive magazine spread featuring the product she was advertising. Karen, the assistant who was asked to accompany Celine, only glanced at the message and put it back into Celine's bag.
Celine's time in Yazeran was drawing to a close and there were no significant obstacles. Celine was very easy to work with. Maybe it was because she wasn't joined by her best friend, so she was a bit professional. But if the four pillars of S

Jacob was amazed, damn it wasn't just him who couldn't take his eyes anywhere else but at the figure of the woman who was descending the stairs. Her flowing black hair fell perfectly on her head, not to mention the additional accessories that matched the clothes she wore. Yazeran is rich in color but the choice of gold and red are two things that characterize luxury. Plus Celine's body shape is beautifully sculpted, showing curves that are seductive but graceful at the same time.Indeed, a super model like Celine Princessa is a magnet for many people, both men and women.“Celine is really outrageous,” Jacob cursed while putting down his wine carelessly. He stood up and got rid of some people who were suddenly in the way. Wanting to look further, Celine's figure suddenly became the center of attention.Coinciding with Jacob's attempt to be at arm's length, Celine smiled at him. It was very thin, but it made Jacob's heart skip a beat.“Am

“I'm surprised at the nickname that people have for him. What's the word? Successful young businessman? Handsome? Charismatic? Tsk!” Jody chuckled in annoyance. “He's a new player in the business in Centralia, just lucky to be asked to continue the movement of the luxurious Hotel Alden although I must admit, since being managed by Bryan, Hotel Alden has been on top. Besides being famous for its facilities and privacy concerns, the Alden is also spreading its wings far and wide. I heard that he is currently handling a reclamation project to create a floating resort on Hondu Beach. Do you know?”“I've never been there. But I heard that Hondu Beach is the third most beautiful beach in the world?”“Yes, you're right, dear.” Jody smiled meaningfully. “You want to visit there with me?”Celine replied with a faint smile. She was still not done listening to all the information about the new Desmond that she did

The scorching sun did not stop Celine from staying by Jacob's side. She occasionally responded to Jacob's remarks about the project. The construction of the Yazeran culinary market had received quite a lot of attention. Apart from the public, the Yazeran city government also fully supports it because it can be used as a new tourist attraction when visiting the city.“I feel bad for you, Celine,” Jacob said as he gave special instructions to his workers. He fixed the large umbrella that shaded the head of the girl who looked elegant in a floral print dress complete with a hat and heat-shielding glasses.“Why?” Celine's eyes were only focused on one point; the culinary market design plan posted on the bulletin board. It looked detailed and clearly illustrated if the work was completed later.“I should have taken you to a more comfortable place. Spend time together to become more familiar. Let's just say, I did it to make up for all my

No one knows when a bad day will appear. It usually comes without permission, and is often accompanied by embarrassing events. It depends on the individual who will make the event truly embarrassing or favorable.For Celine, it was both.Damn these feet and footholds that turned out to be as fragile as her heart. When she finished sitting and her business with Justin, she decided to catch up with Jacob. Not wanting to stay here too long, besides the dusty wind, the heat that was quite stifling and made her uncomfortable, she was also suddenly the center of attention.Actually, it didn't matter, but most of the workers there made him uncomfortable. Rather than throwing the shoes she was wearing at the group of people, Celine stepped aside. Unfortunately, as her feet treaded on the rocky area, her feet slipped. Making her body unsteady and falling... yet.“Are you okay?” asked someone who hadn't taken off his sunglasses.The rock Celine s

“Oh my God!” Karen was wide-eyed in disbelief. Immediately helped Celine to sit on the long sofa available. Her eyes clearly looked at Celine with a look of relief but also demanded an explanation. “You gave me a heart attack!”Celine only grinned faintly. “But you still welcomed me here, so I guess you're okay.”“Celine!” screeched Karen unhappily. “You have no idea what's been going through my head since you've been out of the room!”“It's alright. I'm sorry,” Celine said as she leaned back comfortably. She raised the leg that had been wrapped in support to the other side. “At least this is better.”“What happened to you?” Karen immediately sat on the opposite side to Celine. her eyes looked in horror at Celine's leg. “What would I tell Justin if I knew you were like this.” She massaged her temples repeatedly, a sign of excessive frustration at Ce

“You.” Justin no longer knew how to deal with Celine. Compared to Giselle, who liked to wrestle him with spoilage, or Ursula, who often whined because of the luxury goods she had to get, Celine was the only one who was draining.The man had to cancel a meeting in Milan to see Celine's condition firsthand. who wouldn't be shocked to hear the story that Celine shared so lightly. What did she say? Slipping and breaking a bone? And stuck in a sandstorm for almost an hour?Is there anything more terrifying than that?There is.Celine was with someone Justin just met and when he found out who it was, he couldn't tell you how many times he rubbed his chest. In order to keep his sanity because of all Celine's above-average behavior.“But I told you honestly, didn't I?” Celine said, blinking innocently. “You shouldn't have put on such a horrible face.” She went back to enjoying the baked potato she'd ordered from the hote

Celine continued to calmly enjoy her lunch. Which she was forced to do in the restaurant that the hotel where she was staying provided. There was no way she could talk to the man who seemed to be casually chewing his food, as if his visit was expected.“Don't you have to take care of your health to recover?” Bryan asked with an appraising look at the girl sitting in front of him. Ever since they sat down in one corner of the restaurant, Celine had little to say. Although she still responded well to Bryan's questions, the man knew that Celine objected to being visited.Celine sighed softly. She put down her spoon and fork and chuckled. “I'm not used to receiving kindness like this.” She immediately looked at Bryan with reluctance. “What business do you have to see me?”Bryan smiled slightly. “Just wanted to make sure you were okay.”“How kind of you to take the time like this.” Celine chuckled.

Celine sat back down to enjoy how the Yazeran sky was this afternoon. the sun that began to sink on the horizon, looked so beautiful together with the expanse of the desert. As far as she could see from above, Yazeran was indeed filled with sandy plains. But really, the exotic value of this place deserves a thumbs up. It's true what Ruby said, there is a sense of wanting to return to this barren land even if you have to struggle with grains of dust.Accompanied by a glass of refreshing orange juice, Celine still didn't want to leave. She let Karen get busy fixing things in her room. This was their last day in Yazeran. Her leg was much better and she could return to Centralia soon. Recovering there was much better than here.Although it was an argument because Justin did not agree to Celine's request to go home immediately, even though the doctor's recommendation was that Celine needed two more days to get used to the movement in her leg. For some reason, Celine half ur
