“Uhh, Cecilia, don’t say things like that!” Rachel cut Cecilia off in a hurry, terrified the latter might blurt something out of line. She could already feel Tyler staring at her intensely.

If Cecilia kept talking, Rachel was certain she wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight.

Cecilia, completely baffled, asked, “What are you talking about? Did you forget? Last time you told me that you wanted to run that project, but we’d need a marketing hook. And what’s more eye–catching– especially for women–than men? At the time, you said we should use a few good–looking guys for the shoot. Then we’d publish it through the magazine. It’d be the perfect ad, right?”

Hearing that, Rachel finally remembered. She had tossed out the idea to Cecilia before, just casually in passing. She had forgotten all about it after getting sidetracked with other things.

It surprised her that Cecilia had remembered so clearly.

She let out a long sigh of relief. “That actually sounds good, but I didn’t get a good look earlier. Tyler grabbed my phone and deleted everything by mistake. Can you send them again?”

“That won’t be necessary. Let’s just do live auditions. It’ll be easier that way.”

Rachel thought that was a good idea. “Alright, let’s do that.”

“By the way, have you finished that project you were working on? Do you need me to help with anything?”

She didn’t mention Tyler or the project she was helping with, and that alone eased Rachel’s nerves. The whole conversation had left her on edge.
