The Billionaire's Secret Lover
Chapter 20: Modeling Shoot
I can't believe I've been running for an hour now, since I couldn't sleep a wink last night. I've been up since 5 am, thinking about the clash with Deborah Melton at my office a few days ago.
I jogged up to my apartment to see Lillian standing there in all her glory. She smiles immediately she saw me approaching“Hey beauty" she calls sweetly to me. I know what she's trying to do, anytime she uses that tone at me she wants me to do something for her.
“To what do I owe your presence, her royal majesty Lilian,” I said as I bowed playfully in front of her.
“Well, well, let me see” She placed her hands and on chin thinking “ Oh yes!, I'm here concerning our discussion yesterday,” She said happily jumping up and down.
“Yesterday?” I ask her shocked, as I search my brain for possible discussion but came back empty.
“Ah!” Lilian exclaims bitterly“ Don't tell me you've forgotten what we discussed yesterday night?” Her smile fell as she pretended to cry. She can be whiny when she wants something badly.
“About what?” I ask her as I push her gently from my door to punch in my passcode. The door clicks open and we both walk in.
I walk to my room, Lilian follows behind me trying to convince me that I need to consider what she was saying.
“Please! Nina, you are beautiful and this is your only chance of being accepted by Michael's parents” She pleaded desperately. I froze, she might be right, if I become richer than Deborah Melton, they might consider me worthy enough for their son.
I walk out of my closet smiling“ Ok, I will do it”
“Really?” She asked not quite believing that I can change my mind in the span of two seconds.
“Yes,” I replied shrugging.
She smiles as she took out her phone to dial a number while I quickly send a text to Divine, telling her that I won't be coming in today and that she should handle all my schedules at work then I walk Into the bathroom to shower and dress for wherever we were going to today.
We arrived at Lush Beauty to meet numerous reporters gathered in front of the building. That could only mean one thing, either Michael is here or something newsworthy is going to happen here today.
I walk out of the car closely followed by Lilian, thank God we brought her Lamborghini. I don't what I would have done if I brought my a Honda CRV here, as I look around the parking loot seeing lots of expensive exotic cars.
A lady walks out to where we stood, she was beautiful, tall, and light in complexion with short red hair which falls below her shoulder in a bob cut.
“ Hi!, which of you is Nina Miller?” She asked looking from Lillian to me. Lilian pointed to me smiling. I nodded at her.
“Please!, follow me,” She said and turn to walk back into the building as we follow her.
Immediately, we entered into Lush Beauty. It was like we've entered into another world of beauty products ranging from fragrances to makeup and everything you could ever think of.
Lillian gasps beside me as I turn to look at her“ Wow! Nina, this is so beautiful!!” She exclaims excitedly “I'm so jealous of you right now”.
I huff at her, as our beautiful model like escort has stopped in front of a door and knock which reads ' Managing Director' from the closed-door we could hear laughter.
