Chapter 11

These three people beside her are not the typical ordinary friends that a person can have.

Wendy Mercado, the woman sitting on Francheska's left side, is the owner of the biggest fashion house in this city. Her fashion house, The Fairy Factory, produces the most expensive and glamorous fashion items per year. Even though she is considered one of the richest people in the country, Wendy is a very low-key person. She never shows herself in public.

No one can guess that she owns a fashion house since her style is always simple. Wendy never wore something that she designs or her company produces. But Wendy prefers to wear different accessories and jewelry. Wendy once told Francheska that collecting limited-edition and rare jewelry is her hobby. That's why when Francheska saw the limited-edition necklace from abroad, she used her connection as an international actress to buy the necklace and give it to Wendy.

The woman with curly blonde hair who is sitting on Francheska's right side is Cindy Lui. She is one of the owners of the restaurant 'The Blue Phoenix' that is famous for its exquisite food and high-class dining services. Her restaurant was also the place where the higher officials always dine. Not only that, but Cindy Lui once received an award as the best entrepreneur in Finrel City.

Just like Wendy, Cindy Lui is also a low-key person. She hates showing herself in public that is why no one knew her identity. The award she got before was received by her secretary who attended the event to be Cindy's representative. So everyone in the food industry was actually curious who is the real owner of 'The Blue Phoenix' restaurant.

And lastly, the man sitting on the opposite side of the table is none other than Leon Gutierrez. He is a famous investor and businessman. Leon was known in the business world as the man who possesses a lucky koi. It is because whatever business he chooses to invest in, that business will surely become successful that earns millions of money every month.

Unlike Cindy Lui and Wendy Mercado, Leon is a famous personality not only in their city but also abroad. His name is very well-known even though he is not a celebrity. He has millions of followers on his social media accounts. With his handsome looks and his lavish lifestyle, he became one of the youngest successful businesses in Finrel City.

Who would have thought that these three powerful people in the country are all sitting in one room?

And all of them are Francheska's loyal and faithful friends.

Whenever Francheska meets with these three, she always has the thought that maybe she is just dreaming. Her life before she became a celebrity is very simple. A very different lifestyle that these three people experienced in their life. Her fame as an international artist can never be compared to these three.

Francheska never imagined that she will have them as her friends. But one fateful night in Finrel City makes it all happened. After that night, Francheska gained not only three powerful friends but also loyal and loving friends.

Francheska encountered these three people in different scenarios. It was also because of her that Wendy Mercado, Cindy Lui, and Leon Gutierrez got a chance to know each other and became friends too. Without Francheska, these three people will never cross each other's paths.

"Oh! By the way, Cheska. Why don't you become the ambassador of my fashion house next year?" Wendy asked. "I have new designs that will be launch next year. My designs will surely look good on you."

"I refuse." Francheska answered without even thinking about her friend's offer.

"But why? Do not tell me you really hate my fashion house that much?!" doubted Wendy as she crossed her arms on her chest.

"Maybe your designs really sucks. Just be grateful that Cheska is too kind to tell you that fact." Cindy commented without removing her eyes on the gift she received from Francheska.

"Shut up! I am the greatest fashion designer that you can ever find in Finrel City!" Wendy huffed. And then she looked at Francheska again. "Please become the ambassador of The Fairy Factory, okay?"

"Hmm... Nope~! Don't wanna~!" Francheska answered in a singsong way.

"But why?!"

"Because I do not want to abuse the power and authority that my friends possessed."

"That again? I told you many times that you are not abusing or taking advantage of us. I am asking you because I want you to model my designs!" Wendy stressed as she tried to make Francheska understand her words again.

"No. I am not changing my mind."

As much as she can, Francheska wants to become more successful without the help of her friends. It is nice to have powerful backing from these people, but she does not like it. Francheska did not become friends with them because of their status and money. She became friends with them because of who they really are. Having their support as a friend is enough for Francheska.

"Stop persuading her, Wendy. If Cheska decided on something, even twenty heavy bulls can never stop her from doing it." Leon joked.

"Hmph! You are always like that." grumbled Wendy. "Just say it. You really hate my designs, don't you?"

"You know that is not true. I am a big fan of your designs."

"And I am your fan too! My goddess, just accept my offer!" Wendy persuaded Francheska again.

Though Francheska is smiling, she still refused Wendy's offer again which made her friend pout in annoyance.
