Chereads / The Senator's Wife / Chapter 25 - Her Career

Chapter 25 - Her Career

Rosa fills her days and nights working. Her schedule is full with her prior commitments of fashion photo shoots and modeling stints in Ronia. Brie strives to seek more works for her as per her instruction. Rosa aims to drown herself with work to set aside her turbulent emotions. Madam Desta cannot easily put her on a job in Ronia because she's already married and have to take the consideration of her political responsibility as a senator's wife.

She requested that she wants to go abroad. Madam Desta helps Brie with this. The Madam calls Quaint Fashion's CEO dropping hints that Rosa is available to grace their shop launches all over Europe. Brie meets with Skin Au Lait to finalize their agreement. Its marketing manager has been hounding her to let Rosa go on an Asian tour campaign as their products' lead ambassador. Brie also receives a very long time offers for Rosa for a fashion and magazine photo shoot in Australia.

As much as they want Graysen and Rosa to reconcile, they must give in to Rosa's demand for a while until her anger finally dissipates and her mind is willing to receive reasons. Rosa seldom gets angry but once she gets irked it's like a silent tribulation. Nobody can predict her moods with the person who angers her and if she is going to speak to that person again.

Rosa flies to London for Quaint's shop launching kick-off. Then Quaint brings her and Brie to Paris, Madrid, Rome, Amsterdam, Berlin, Vienna, Moscow, Bucharest, and Budapest for a series of shop openings before going back to Ronia. The Quaint business gives Rosa an excuse to be away for a whole two weeks.

When she arrives at the Andrei's villa entrance she greets, "Hi Nana Amor, how are you?"

"I'm good Madam Rosa. Welcome back. How was your trip?" Nana Amor replies. She calls for two helpers to carry Rosa's luggage upstairs.

Rosa leisurely gaits following her luggage.

"I'll bring you some refreshments upstairs," Nana Amor asserts.

Rosa twists her body as she steps up the stairs and smiles at the old lady.

Rosa lazes on the sofa when Nana Rosa hands her a warm fruit tea.

"Thanks Nana. Anyway, where is Athena?" she inquires.

The old lady wonders from her sudden question about Athena. "Madam, she's in her bedroom."

"Please bring her here."

Nana Amor fetches Athena.

Rosa has been sorting her luggage when they come in. "Hi Athena." She tells the little girl.

Athena smiles timidly. She speaks, "Hi."

"Come here. I got this all for you." She shows Athena the dresses and accessories she collected from the different cities she paid a quick work trip to.

Athena's eyes light up. She sits touching a traditional Dutch costume. She looks at Rosa and briefly says, "Oh, thank you." Her eyes flashing with delight on all the goods in front of her.

"Nana Amor, I also have something for you." She hands the old lady a tasseled shawl she happened to see in Madrid.

Brie picks her up the following day. They are traveling to Singapore for the onset of Skin Au Lait's Asian endorsement campaign. They spend almost a month hopping from one airport to another city hub of Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Seoul, Tokyo, Manila, Taipei, Hongkong, Shanghai, Beijing, Canton, Saigon, Jakarta, New Delhi and Dubai. From Dubai, Rosa and Brie flies straight to Sydney for her fashion and magazine photo shoot.
