Chapter 24
Victor wrapped a towel around himself and turned to kneel in front of Eleanor, gently tilting her chin up as he spoke softly, “First, I want your heart. I want to be the only
it before you completely become mine.” With that, he began to rise, but Eleanor reached out and tugged at his towel. “I’m not upset with… us… this way. You still
Victor reached out to caress her hair, taking a moment to regain his composure. “I want you… you have no idea how enchanting you are right now. But I want all of you, bock and said. I wait until you’re sure.”
Eleanor nodded grasping Victor’s left hand. “It’s been a long time since someone respected me like this.”
Victor understood what she tacant. Though the temptation to crush Percival was strong, he believed she would find a way to achieve everything she desired through her own
The next morning, the scandalous headlines about the two models at Heavens Arts Entertainment had already been overshadowed by a trending topic in the social section Percival and Celeste’s rumors were temporarily masked by a press release. Such entertainment news often burst onto the scene, only to fade quickly. However, Eleanor’s proactive stance in accepting responsibility had gamered her a significant new fanbase, with many starting to delve into her past works.
Little did everyone realize. Eleanor was quickly experiencing a sort of renaissance.
Especially after her performance at Crown Star, where her portrayal outshone any other model in the spotlight. New followers were reluctant to see Eleanor fade once more, so they spread various versions of her performance video and reached out to Highland Fellowship. Upon viewing the footage, the designers at Highland Fellowship were astonished by Eleanor’s beauty. Particularly, the one who had previously berated her was captivated by the way she harmonized with the jewels in her photos, as if she were born for them…
The designers at Highland Fellowship were hesitant. Initially angry over Heavens Arts‘ deception, they reconsidered. Reflecting on it, they recognized that Eleanor’s grace and professionalism were more in line with Crown Star’s vision
Additionally, due to Eleanor’s humble apology, Highland Fellowship felt a degree of trust toward hier.
Consequently, Highland Fellowship executives swiftly convened a meeting to discuss the potential switch of brand ambassadors, and ultimately, they reached a decision–to call the office of Heavens Arts Entertainment’s president.
“Mr. Eugene, Celestes injury will heal quickly and shouldn’t hinder Highland Fellowship’s upcoming product launch……..
“No, Mr. Percival, it’s not acceptable like that. We demand a replacement for the ambassador. We want to substitute Celeste with Eleanor.” The voice on the line spoke fluently in English.
Percival was left utterly confounded. “No, Mr. Eugene, that’s inappropriate.”
“We haven’t signed any endorsement contracts yet. If we can’t switch to Eleanor, we’d rather seek collaboration elsewhere.”
We have other models, and they’re even more famous than Celeste.”
“We want Eleanor.”
The demand was final, leaving Percival no room to argue. Yet this endorsement was intended to elevate Celeste’s status, and he hadn’t anticipated Eleanor would benefit so significantly from the situation. Celeste’s team was bound to go wild.
Seraphina had also caught wind through her channels that Highland Fellowship was on the line with Percival’s office, insisting on a change in the endorsement. Speaking with Eleanor, she was upbeat: “Eleanor, Eleanor, you have an endorsement!”
“Don’t celebrate too soon: Celeste won’t let this go lightly.” Eleanor replied, unfazed by the news. Because, in reality, everything was under her control.
