While tossing her hair, Claudia shook Celine's hand, not meaning to show off, but Claudia was fickle. That's why many producers are after him. A natural talent that can follow the storyline makes anyone will choose it.
"Hehe, because this is the first time, of course, I'm very nervous, Miss Celine. Just pray that the wider community will accept the film. If so, may I excuse you? See you again."
He was sure tomorrow morning, the female secretary looking at him right now would come to his agency or at least call Jacob. Claudia's instincts have always been strong. If not for the handsome widower, she would not have come this far.
Because his business was finished, he left the restaurant and hailed a taxi. Sometimes, tired people must also look closely and wear masks, glasses, and hats. In order not to make many people come to him.
"To Prijs Anvargreen's apartment."
"Yes, Miss."
The taxi took off quickly, and Claudia's eyes shifted to her cell phone, which suddenly lit up. Celine Alena is following you.
There was a notice that the woman he had just met was following him on social media. Her account has a blue tick, indicating that Claudia has many followers on her social media account. She often posts her activities, product collaborations, or daily life with beautiful photos.
Such was Claudia's life. If I'm honest, sometimes he wants to have time to enjoy his vacation without being looked for, let alone busy shooting. But, it has become a habit that is work, work, work.
"Where are you?" was Gina's voice from the phone. Claudia got out of the taxi, walked over, and got into the elevator.
"After meeting the person who will give me a shortcut to be in direct contact with the handsome widower. Great, right?"
Ha? How come? Gina, waiting for Claudia to arrive, shouted, asking for an explanation.
"I saw him after, yeah, I did follow him, and he was at the restaurant. I pretended not to know he was there. I'll explain more concretely later. By the way, Jacob's home already?"
"Not yet. Think about you, hurry up. The food has arrived."
Claudia hung up the phone, and she accidentally ran into Willy and his wife, Wina. It was as if the man didn't even know him. It sucks! Even though I used to like sweet promises.
"You are Claudia, right? That famous model?" guessed Wina. Willy would show off if he ever dated a top model. But why should it be in a situation like this anyway!
Reluctantly, Claudia only faked a smile. Willy looked uncomfortable as if Claudia's presence would be disastrous. Hey, I don't care anymore! In the past, he was just thrown away without hesitation and immediately looked for a replacement.
"Yes." answer as a formality.
"Honey, he's your ex. I don't think we will meet here. Do you live here? Darling, why didn't you tell me Claudia lives in this building?"
Willy was silent with an awkward face. "I also just found out now."
"Thank you for coming yesterday to our wedding. Even though Willy was hesitant to invite you at first, I persuaded him. And your arrival made a scene, and many don't know about you. I just happened to be here because I was meeting a friend." explained Wina.
Should Claudia still pretend to care? The woman was standing while waiting for Wina's talk to finish.
"Okay, I'll go first. Nice to meet you, Wina. Congratulations on your wedding, excuse me."
Claudia immediately took off first, even half-running. He let his feet hurt a little from wearing high hills, deliberately to make Miss Celine judge him more qualified. Ah, because I met my ex, my mood immediately became fragile. No! Claudia had to get up.

At the mention of a name, Dave was shocked. That name is not even part of the people he worked with. But why did Celine even choose that name?
"Sorry if I was impudent suddenly changed everything. However, I think Andrea feels more alive when paired with Claudia. The woman has four faces. Like four seasons in one country. Cold, warm, autumn, and spring. Yeah, that's how I rate it, Dave."
"But, Miss,"
"Yes, if there is one better, don't we have to be more responsive to quickly select and contract it so that no other agency offers a job like this apart from our team? Dave, I have been in this world for a long time, and from the beginning, this woman was amazing with her charms, and the results of some of her photoshoots were not fake." cut Celine.
Because they didn't want to make Celine leave the collaboration they had been working on for several months, Dave finally agreed. He couldn't understand why he could work with that woman and deal with Claudia again. The world is so narrow that it has to take time to meet them again and again.
"What can we do about it? Later my team will contact the manager to reconsider this final decision and take it as fixed capital to partner Andrea."
"No need. Coincidentally, I bumped into him yesterday, and he gave me his business card, and after that, I called his manager immediately. Even now, he is on his way here."
Wow! What a coincidence. In Dave's mind, he just has to wait and see how Claudia works in the shooting world and product marketing. Because Dave very rarely finds out, too much entrusts everything to Josh.
And sure enough, the door to the room opened, and Claudia's figure became the center of attention. Dave looked at her with a deadpan look as if he'd never seen her before.
"Hello. Sorry, Miss Celine, I'm late."
"It's okay, Claudia. I understand how busy you are. So, before starting the cooperation contract, I would like to introduce my friend. Mr. Dave, this is Claudia, the model I recommended. Surely you have heard the name Claudia Belzia Margareth, right?"
They both shake hands. Claudia was overjoyed. Wow! Dave was cold and asked to be defrosted. He was so excited to come here as if it felt like getting two billion.
While receiving an explanation. Occasionally Claudia glanced at Dave. The man still looks firm, authoritative, and economical, to speak. Won't join in unless Celine calls his name.
"Just a moment. I'll pick up the phone first." Celine left the room.
And now, there were only the two of them.
"You look uncomfortable?" he asked.
"Ah, my leg hurts a bit. Usually, a model demands to look beautiful wherever they are, right? Image is everything."
Pretending to be tough, Claudia hid her heels. Sure, Jacob seemed to have the wrong size for his high hills. They were a little too small and made his heels blush.
Without warning, Dave got up from his chair and took something from a drawer, then came closer and even crouched in front of Claudia. He was removing the woman's beautiful legs from her high hills and applying hansaplast to cover the wound on Claudia's heel.
Ah, it feels like Claudia can't wait to have a man in front of her now!
