"We've been trying to assess the situation, but it's quite devastating."I followed my assistant gaze and turned to look at the once vibrant fashion store that now stood before me.

The scent of smoke lingered in the air, a stark reminder of the destruction that had taken place.The damages were extensive, but I felt a surge of gratitude that the fire hadn't spread to engulf the entire building.

I then moved on to applying a light, natural makeup look that enhanced my features without overpowering them. A touch of mascara, a hint of blush, and a swipe of lip gloss were all I needed to achieve a radiant and effortless glow.As I brushed my hair, its strands cascading smoothly through the bristles, I considered how fortunate I was to have Carla's assistance.I knew she had already organized my styling equipment and hair spray, which awaited me downstairs.

Our footsteps echoing through the terminal. I followed closely behind him, a mix of excitement and anticipation coursing through my veins.

My breath caught in my throat, and my steps faltered as recognition dawned upon me.

"Ignacio, meet my wife, Brielle," he introduced, his voice filled with pride and affection. My heart raced, an
