“Everyone in their circle has been acting strange lately,” Adele thought, as she headed to her friend and longtime colleague, supermodel Alice Jolie, for a private shopping trip.
Now that Eugenia thought that Agnes might be courting Alice, she couldn’t shake the feeling that Alice was making up a bunch of excuses for why they weren’t seeing each other.
No one knew that Alice was dating billionaire playboy Alexandre Beaumont-Duran. And since Alexandre wasn’t exactly single at the time, their relationship was very secretive.
To make matters worse, Alexandre owned a conglomerate of luxury brands, including fashion houses, luxury accessories, and even cosmetics.
Alice tried to limit her work so as not to create too much conflict with Alex, as she called him, and his collection of brands. And she also didn’t want to accidentally say anything that might expose her affair.
Elise was no good at keeping secrets. While she was excited to spend time with Adele, she was also worried that she would accidentally spill the tea about herself and her… flirting.
Elise was already in the studio’s private VIP suite, surrounded by shopping bags, when one of the attendants led Adele into the room.
“You started without me! What a shame!” Adele joked, kissing Elise on the cheek and admiring her chic denim suit.
“I’ll definitely borrow it,” Adele said, pointing to the well-tailored look.
While the staff brought Elise a row of shoes to try on, Adele made a little small talk before getting straight to business.
“Elise, you haven’t been doing much for W lately. We need you to come back with a big splash,” Adele said.
Despite the fact that there were many hot young models on the catwalk and on social media for NU. Face, Elise was still one of the most respected models of all time. Having her do a new big campaign would definitely spark conversation and make the AvW press a little critical of her opinion.
Elise tried to talk to her friend, but Adele was too smart for that.
“Elise, what are you hiding from me? Do you work with AvW?” Adele asked.
Elise laughed, tossing her long hair back. “Can you imagine me working with Agnes? Really, my dear…”
Then Elise’s gorgeous designer bag fell and her cell phone fell out and flew across the room.
Adele ran to pick it up for Elise, who ran after her, not wanting her friend to touch it.
Adele reached the phone first, and as she handed it over, she saw the wallpaper on the home screen—Elise in a tiny bikini with Alexander on his yacht, hugging.
Adele’s jaw dropped.
Elise just knew she was going to screw it up, and she did.
“Adele, please, you can’t tell anyone…” Elise pleaded.
“Of course, your secret is safe with me,” Adele said. “Now about that campaign…”
Elise nodded. She would think of some way to calm Alex down. read more
