When Ryn returned to her hotel room, she was beyond exhausted. She crawled to her bed and went to sleep immediately, forgetting to inform the latest developement to Mei Li, her manager. She even forgot to eat her fried bread and cola!When she woke up the next day, she spent almost half an hour dazing at the white wall. Was it all a dream? She must be dreaming, right? How could it be from just the "extra" to become the spokesperson?It was too good to be true!She sighed and reached for her ringing phone blindly. She must be dreaming..."h.e.l.lo, Ryn? Where are you?" it was Mei Li and she sounded weird."Still at the hotel. Why?" Ryn asked back. She scratched her head and made a beeline to the toilet without bother to tell Mei Li what she was doing. She placed the phone on the counter and put it on speaker."I received an e-mail from SS," Mei Li said."What about it?" Ryn turned to flush the toilet. Then, she washed her hand with the soap provided by the hotel."You... what have you done?" Mei Li choked out."What did I do?" Ryn asked back in a puzzle. She did not make the connection between what happened yesterday with the email Mei Li received."You... what have you done?" Mei Li repeated her question.Ryn simply squeeze the toothpaste onto the toothbrush. She narrowed jer eyes at the phone, "Maybe you can explain to me what you mean by that before I can answer your question."Ryn started to brush her teeth."You... you... what did you do yesterday until you became the spokesperson? You didn"t do anything weird, did you? You didn"t follow any man, did you? Catherine, are you alone?" Mei Li gasped in horror.Ryn"s face darkened when she heard the questions. Who did Mei Li think she was? Someone who would do anything beyond work just to get job? It was even rare for her to have lunch and dinner meeting now. She did not even care how many jobs she got. The ones she received from Mika"s brands enough to last her for years to come. She only took jobs that interest her. Even the perfume gig, she agreed to do it because she liked the scent from the brand. "Mei Li," she muttered her manager"s name slowly and warningly."How come from just being one of the models you manage to be the spokesperson?" Mei Li was so confused. Of course, she was happy when Ryn managed to grab the chance to add to her portfolio but this sudden? She did not want her charge to do something weird just to sign the contract. How could she explain this to Ryn"s parents? Not to mention, Jeremy. How could she explain it to him?"How do I know? You should ask them," Ryn spat the bubbles and replied. She continued brus.h.i.+ng her teeth while listening to her manager getting fl.u.s.tered. "Besides, I"m meeting them later. Please book another flight for me.""What time?" Mei Li quickly opened the apps for the flight company. She checked the time."I don"t mind," Ryn replied after was.h.i.+ng her mouth. She then took her face cleanser and made a quick work was.h.i.+ng her face."Then, I"ll send you the detail once I"ve confirmed the time," Mei Li said. Ryn said okay and disconnected the call. She wanted to take a quick shower to freshen up herself. She waa still sleepy!She checked the time and slowly put on another set of clean clothes. There was a huge budle of clothes she needed to wash. Hopefully she had the time."First thing first, breakfast," she muttered under her breath and reached for her phone and the hotel"s key card. Her stomach was growling in hunger. "Did I have dinner last night?"She could not remember what she did last night. Did she have breakfast? But the way her stomach was behaving, it looked like she did not have anything at all. Sigh.Yesterday was a long day.When she reached the restaurant for the buffet for breakfast, she found there was a lot of people there enjoying their breakfast. She handed the breakfast voucher to the boy in charge and then made a beeline to the food. She licked her lips hungrily seeing so many delicious food in display. Without wasting another moment, she took the toppest plate and scooped a huge serving of sausages. And then, she looked for eggs. She wanted to eat 3 sunny side-up eggs. And a bowl of porridge. And pastries. And brownies. And maybe some noodles. Ryn ate everything except for greens. She avoided those like she was avoiding her enemy. Her worst enemy."You again..."She frowned when she heard the now familiar voice. Not again.She lifted her head and looked at the two women, then, lowered back her head to enjoy eating her porridge. It was such a waste of waiting facing these two crazy women. It was better for her to ignore them and enjoy her breakfast.Jennifer s.h.i.+vered angrily. Without thinking, her hands reached for the gla.s.s of juice to pour onto this hateful woman. Luckily for Ryn, her manager managed to stop her."Jen, no. We"re in public," her managed hissed, holding her hand tightly."Let me go. Let me go," Jennifer struggled to free herself. Her temper went up to the sky when she realized her own manager was on this hateful woman"s side. She turned and without warning slapped her manager"s right cheek.The loud slapping sound made everyone stopped their chatting and looked at both Jennifer and her manager. Even Ryn lifted her head and looked at the duo in shocked.The manager covered her bruised cheek and pushed a weak smile. "I"m sorry. It was a slipped of a hand."In order to salvage the situation and protect Jennifer"s reputation, she again tried to pull Jennifer away. It was important to leave this place quickly before someome recognized her and took her picture to post on the internet. It would be a PR nightmare if it happened."What are you doing? Let me go," Jennifer did not realize how her action could ruim her name and career. She was too angry to care about anything else.
