Chapter 59 Waiting for you

RENEE

Disinterested in further conversation, addressed the staff, “Isn’t there another product endorsement available? I’d rather

switch.”

I had no desire to make those who harbored ill feelings towards in appear admirable by my own hands.

The staff hesitated, “Well, but it’s for a lesser–known video gaming player. The project isn’t as prestigious as this one. Miss Hudson, you are KM Group’s cooperative stylist, so we will d do our best to provide you with the best resources.”

I glanced at Alyssa to find her doing me but I remained calm, Lknew that she was probably thinking that only a fool would willingly diminish their own standing by taking the initiative to style a video game enthusiast’s appearance.

“Then I will change to that side,” I said irked at her dumbfounded expression.

Publicly mentioning her cosmetic procedures was a direct hit to her pride.

“Really? Perhaps, but my natural beauty is surely more appealing to him than yours.”

I didn’t even hesitate in my stride.

I was never one to attack someone’s looks, but I felt compelled to respond to Alyssa’s provocation.

As I left, I messaged Sarah, “I ran into Alyssa today. She was hostile for no reason, acting like a rabid dog.”

My next assignment was in the styling studio next door, for the “Nighthawk” series of computer products by KM Group. The spokesperson, a 16 or 17–year–old boy named Ivan James, lay on the sofa, his expression sullen.

“Miss Hudson, meet Ivan,” the staff introduced. “Ivan, this is Renee, your stylist for today.”

Despite my limited knowledge of e–sports, I could tell Ivan was nothing like the stereotype of an antisocial gamer.

His features were striking, his eyes captivating, and he exuded a mix of adolescent vigor and the mischievousness of a child.

Intriguingly, he bore a slight resemblance to Marcelo.

“Hello,“I greeted.

Ivan, lifting his eyes to eyes, asked bluntly, “My family thinks e–sports isn’t a proper career. What do you think?”
