Chapter 76 Her birthday

*RENEE*

I was beyond surprised to see that I made the interview.

I know and believe in my skills but sometimes I get scared when I see people with strong connections vying for the same position as me.

Of course I know I have a strong connection which is Marcelo but I do not permit him to interfere unless I’m being wronged.

I like to participate in interviews fairly and I am always overjoyed when I’m accepted because of my hard work.

The disbelief was evident when I heard the news. “I am offered the position of deputy director of the makeup group?” I echoed.

From the other end of the phone, a staff member from the “Peerless Grace” personnel department confirmed, ” Yes, Miss Hudson. We’re eager for you to join us. The cast and crew convene next Friday for set photos. I’ll forward the details to your email.”

After the call, I turned to Sarah, excitement in my voice. “I’ve been named the deputy director of ‘Peerless Grace‘.”

“Congratulations! You’re the best.” Sarah beamed. “Isn’t today your birthday too? What a day for double

celebrations!”

My smile wavered. “Actually, Sarah, today might not really be my birthday.”

With a comforting hug,Sarah reassured, “Sweetheart, any day can be your birthday if you want it to be.”

I found myself agreeing. “Then let’s celebrate today.”

:

When Grace and Rocco found me as a baby, they said I was about a month old but they didn’t know the exact day I was born.

And so,even if they had chosen a random date as my birthday, they never celebrated it, especially because, coincidentally, the following year, they had Catherine on the same date and month that they had randomly picked for me.

We were just a year apart.

They always celebrated Catherine’s birthday but they told me I didn’t deserve to be celebrated.

They were wrong!
