41. A Supermodel Contract
Our company produces models, artists, and musicians. "If you've never heard of ST Agency, you might know David Lucas, Mylen Virginia, or HugeSpike. They are some of our celebrities." Mr. Tryvon explained."I think I've never heard of any of them," Adro said, trying to recall."Oh, well," Mr. Tryvon chuckled in annoyance. Then he cleared his throat to continue, "Anyway, I'm confident to say that almost all of our celebrities are at the top. I hope you'll consider our offer. At the very least, would you be willing to accept my invitation to our office for a look around and a quick coffee?""How much can you pay me? I'm not familiar with modeling work; it has never caught my interest. I want to compare how much I can make as a model compared to working here." Adro inquired.Mr. Tryvon raised an eyebrow and grinned. "Well, if you want to know the payment scheme, I suggest you accept my invitation to our office. However, rest assured, the payment for being a m

42. Somebody's Man
"Becoming a model?" Grace's eyes widened.Adro nodded. "Today is my last day working at the restaurant. Starting tomorrow, I'll undergo training and stay in their agency dorm for five days.""Well... this is honestly quite surprising," Grace murmured.'Why didn't Adro tell me this before he actually signed the contract? But do I even have the right to think like this? We're just friends, aren’t we?' Grace pondered.Then, she smiled at Adro. "That's awesome, Adro! From what I know, Sky Talent is a well-known agency. I'm sure you'll make a lot of money and be able to buy anything you want, like the celebrities out there. I'll continue to support you until you succeed!"

43. Naive Boy
"Good luck!" Grace said after pulling her car.Adro smiled, then briefly stroked Grace's head. "Don't be late for meals, and don't stay up too late."Grace chuckled. "I'm not a kid, Adro. Even before you came, I've been taking care of myself alone.""But now that I'm here, I’ll be part of it!" Adro stared at her with risen brows and a tilted head, eliciting another chuckle from Grace."All right. Thanks for driving me here. Call me if anything happens!" Adro said before exiting the car."Bye..." Grace waved as Adro smiled at her before closing the door."Phew..." A long exhale escaped Grace's lips as she watched Adro turn away from her. "Why does it feel kind of heavy, although he's just going to stay overnight for five days?"A slight heaviness pressed on Grace's heart. She thought it would only be temporary, but now the sun had set, casting her entire living room in warm orange. Why does the feeling still haunt her?Sit

44. Realizing
Adro's forehead wrinkled. He moved from his working chair to the edge of his bed, facing Elvis directly. "Why did you say that? What's wrong with me?"Wiping his tears, Elvis continued, "Let me guess. The girl named Grace, she's your friend, isn’t she?""Yes, she is." Adro nodded.Elvis burst into harder laughter, holding his cramping stomach. "Oh my God, Neptune! I didn't expect a grown man like you to play such childish games. Fake brother and sister, yet treating each other like husband and wife? Haha! This is insane! Even high school kids will find it cringeworthy!"Elvis' words sent a wave of heat over Adro's face. He cleared his throat to manage the unexpected surge of embarrassment. "What do you mean by treating each other like husband and wife? I've never considered Grace to be my wife. If I had a real sister, I would treat her just like I treat Grace.""Well, maybe you're right," Elvis said, folding his arms across his chest. "But I

45. Source of Courage
Grace zoomed in on the picture, which contained three male models and two female models. Those five models posed on a luxurious black granite staircase illuminated by golden spotlights. Just as Bella mentioned, one of them was Adro.A radiant smile spread across Grace's lips. She had imagined it before, but the reality was more dazzling. He looked like he wasn't from this world in the picture; he appeared angelic. Indeed, Adro was not from this world. However, who would have thought that Adro, who usually cooked for her, now looked radiant, even among the twinkling stars?"He's amazing," Grace murmured, still staring at Adro's picture."What a disgusting girl!"Flinching, Grace shifted her gaze to the source of the v

46. Unrequited Feeling
"Two days of losing contact with Grace nearly drove Adro insane. His sleep was disrupted, and he struggled to focus on work, constantly worrying about her and missing her. Never in his life had Adro thought he would feel like this only because of someone."If you keep this up, you'll ruin your photo session tomorrow. It's your debut—your first professional photo released to the public," Elvis said while scrolling on his phone on the bed he'd been lying on for the past fifteen minutes.Adro ignored his roommate, remaining seated at the edge of the bed with his head hanging and staring at the floor. At work, people like Adro and Elvis were called rookies. Tomorrow, the rookies would have their first photo shoot for a famous women's perfume brand. Elvis was right; he couldn't mess it up.'I can't deny it. It's clear; I like Grace. No, not just like her, but genuinely care for her and love her. I never even missed my mother in my whole life.' Adro thought.

47. Standing Beside a Celebrity
"If you don't mind, you can sign the contract today. However, I'll give you time to read its content first and time to think," Mr. Tryvon said."I remember you mentioning it once. So, their name is Margaze? I'll read the contract now. It's our agreement from the beginning, so I should be able to sign it today," Adro replied."Good. No need to rush; use your time." Mr. Tryvon winked before rising from his seat to take the contract from his desk. "By the way, may I ask why you didn't join the others at the bar to celebrate your debut last night?""I had something more important, so I didn't," Adro answered."Well," Mr. Tryvon nodded before sitting back on the sofa, placing the contract on the table. "Adro, I understand that family is important to you. I also understand that you seem to dislike chit-chatting, but I hope you're willing to occasionally socialize with others because relationships are crucial in this industry."Sliding the contract letter

48. A Bloomed Lotus; A Bloomed Feeling
Adro squinted slightly at the phone screen shown to him. It was indeed a photo of him wearing a glimmering maroon suit without an inner; that was the outfit he wore for this afternoon's solo debut photo session. From what he heard, they would publish those photos tonight."It’s just one hour ago," Adro mumbled while glancing at his watch. "This world is amazing.""I'm sure you're Adro Groendez." The girl stated.Adro nodded and gave a faint smile. "Yes, that's me. It looks like my agency just uploaded that photo."An instant, bright smile appeared on the faces of the two girls. "ST Agency announced your debut around 6 p.m. They posted it on all their social media accounts. It's also reported on some celebrity n

49. A Top Model in The Campus
Like other visual art students, some of Grace's best artwork during her college years earned a spot in the university art exhibition specifically for graduating students. Although the exhibition lasted only two days, coinciding with the graduation party and ceremony, she was proud that her work could be seen by many people.However, the art exhibition was less crowded compared to the entertainment art performances and fashion shows held in one of the campus auditoriums. The show aimed to showcase the final works of the art and fashion design departments. The event also served as a competition for all participating departments.In this event, the fashion design and modeling departments collaborated on a runway show and announced the winner of the fashion design final project. What added excitement to the event was that the top five designs would be worn by real models during the runway session.“We collaborate with Sky Talent Agency and renowned clothing br

50. A Prince Charming For A Loser Girl
Until the show almost concluded, Adro still couldn't find Grace. He hadn't actively searched for her among the numerous spectators because, as a model, he needed to keep his gaze straight ahead during the runway. Only when the picture-taking session came could his eyes scan every seat around him. ‘Why hasn't she come yet? Why is she taking so long?’ "Committee! We also want to take pictures together!" shouted some female students from below the stage. "Sorry, that can't be done." One of the committee members guarding the stage replied. However, Adro approached one of them and said, "I don't mind taking some pictures with my fans. Can you filter them so it won't be too many, please?" The male committee widened his eyes. "Are you serious about this? You won't impose any extra charges on us, will you?" Adro chuckled and shook his head. "This is a personal request. It seems some of the spectators below are my fans. I just want to briefly g
