Chap. 12 Marry's Suspicious

For a moment, April was surprised to find her heelpiece broken. Last night's impromptu practice was helpful, too, she thought. She managed to keep her balance. Logan saw something wrong and immediately ran to the runway and confirmed it. He smiled in front of the runway because April managed to master the atmosphere.

April took off her shoes and threw them to one side of the stage, which received much praise and applause from the audience. The other agencies also looked at each other and nodded. Benedict was amazed to see that. It wasn't something a newbie like April could do, but he saw April more than he imagined. This woman has a natural talent as a model, he thought. April continued walking without noticing the reactions of the people around her. Gracefully and elegantly, she accomplished her task.

Logan, who first came to see April from afar, was now cheering her on up close. April knew it was Logan's voice, and she grew more confident.

"Cheers, Apr," shouted Logan.

Hearing a familiar voice, Annette came out of the dressing room. She sees Logan cheering on April, the new model she thinks is the cause of the end of her relationship with the painter. Annette, seeing her ex-lover from afar cheering on another girl, who, unfortunately, is her rival, fosters a grudge in her heart. She approached Logan.

"Logan," calls Annette.

"Ann?"

"I already know that woman who caused the end of our relationship?"

"April? That is not true; we really can't be together anymore. Trust me, she has nothing to do with our problem."

"Should I believe in a man who left me for no reason? I don't think you're that stupid to know I don't trust you anymore," Annette said with a sly smile.

"What did you do to April?" Logan investigated her; Logan understood that as someone who was once close to him, Annette planned something terrible.

On the runway, the models took turns walking. Loud applause and camera glares did not stop capturing the fashions and the models.

Bob saw Logan and Annette and walked over to them.

"I guess you two are back?" said Bob, shaking his body slightly and patting Logan on the shoulder.

"Don't be stupid, Bob," Logan smiled.

"I'm not stupid either to want to take you back," Annette said fiercely.

"Aahhh, hold on, Mr and Miss. I don't want to get involved in your past reunion. I wish you the best, bye..."

Bob then danced and left a peck on Logan's cheek.

Annette laughed, "You seem better suited to Bob than that woman."

"Her name is April, Ann."

"I don't care if the name is August, November, September, October, December, and even March," Annette curtly replied.

"Ann? Was this incident you're doing just now?" guessed Logan.

"Do you think I have a reason not to? Come on, Log." Annette smiled wryly.

Logan regrets his past evil attitude. He realizes his playboy attitude has been bad for the people he loves. A little regret was in his chest. He knows that what he reaps now is what he sowed before. But April does not have to experience it. Logan daydreams, worried about April's future.

Annette, who returned to the dressing room, looked at Logan again before entering the curtain. "You'll get what you deserve, Log. If it's not you, your loved ones will suffer. Get ready."

"Next up, April Archer from Mois Entertainment."

The MC's voice broke Logan's thoughts. He remembered that April showed off two outfits today, which was the last. Logan approached the runway entrance. He looked at April proudly.

"Light up, April," he said after seeing April in her dazzling red dress.

April smiled; that was enough to explain to Logan that she would do her best. Annette was furious to see April fine from backstage. She promised to destroy April's career, which was just started.

Johanson Corp, New York City.

Since morning, Sean has been busy with some complicated work. Incomplete files, troubled financial reports, and now his collaboration with several companies is on the brink because he didn't attend an important meeting a few weeks ago. He was busy thinking about the whereabouts of April, who suddenly disappeared without news. Plus, he disputes his mother over his relationship with Camila.

"Surprise!"

"Camila?" Sean said and immediately hugged her.

"I put off some commercials just for you, honey," said Camila, who immediately sat on Sean's lap.

"You make me fall in love again and again, Cami." Sean kissed her red lips.

Sean had asked Amy to keep his relationship with Camila a secret from Marry. Amy understood and kept it as secret as possible. After all, Amy doesn't see Marry often; she feels safe and doesn't get too deep into her boss's problems.

Camila put her arm around Sean's shoulder. Their lips touched. Camila's hands were already ruffling Sean's hair, and so did Sean; his hands made Camila's back shirt wrinkle. Camila broke the kiss, then stuck her tongue into Sean's mouth. Camila plays her tongue soft and mischievous. Tempting the young CEO to be provoked to touch her body more.

Camila was pressed against the wall of Sean's study. She started to feel the centre of Sean's core from outside his pants. This makes it always difficult for Sean to be separated from Camila. Camila seduces Sean and asks him to make love to get what she wants. Unfortunately, Sean liked it.

The shirt button Camila was wearing was three open at the top. The red bra she was wearing seemed unable to accommodate her luscious breasts, the part tempting Sean to enjoy it longer. The cold air conditioner in the room means nothing. The two lovers in love had been hot since Sean kissed Camila on the lips.

When Camila just unzipped Sean's pants, they were surprised by the arrival of Marry, who suddenly knocked on the door. Sean and Camila panicked. Camila grabbed the blazer she had placed on the table and buttoned up her shirt. Sean pulled up his zipper and brushed his hair back. They both panicked and didn't know what to do.

On the outside, as Sean's secretary, Amy knows what to do. Amy greeted Mary. She had to give her boss and his girlfriend time to tidy up.

"Hello, Mrs. Johanson. Long time no see. How are you?"

"I'm fine, Amy. So you're alone?"

"Are you looking for Mr. Sean?" Amy asked in a deliberately raised tone so Sean and Camila could hear it inside.

"Yeah. I want to ensure that Camila still likes seeing him and continuing their relationship. Have you seen her here?"

"No, madam. I haven't seen her here since you two fought yesterday."

"Good. Get back to work, Amy."

"Yes, madam."

Mary opened the door.
