Feilan checked whether the camera was on and in a convenient position in the hand bag and she slowly made her way into the main building.
For this photoshoot...the magazine had paid to utilise every inch of the gardens so as to reduce chances of leakage of the magazine's photos before the release date but also as away of being able to utilise the various locations in the garden.
Feilan lowered her gaze and looked around. There were support staff moving here and there wrapping up the finished shoots.
Feilan happened to see Shao Linua's personal assistant–Sora Sakuze a native born Japanese. She had been Linua's PA from the very start of Linua's career.
Feilan braced herself and walked up to her.
"Miss Sakuze.." Feilan called out in a neutral tone. Though she wouldn't have wanted to be enemies with people...the fact was that this was still Linua's assistant so ofcourse...Feilan didn't see eye to eye with Sora.
In the end, Sora had definitely also played role in making her life hard since was Linua's assistant and did most of Linua's bidding.
Sora was surprised to see Feilan but her gaze soon turned cold and arrogant.
"What are you doing here" she asked coldly.
Feilan didn't react towards her coldness and she instead answered in an even more indifferent voice "I'm here to see Linua...we need to talk"
Sora scoffed "Who do you think you are to speak to Miss Shao...you're not qualified...so you can leave before I contact security
"Anyway...I don't think you're supposed to be here anyway"
But Feilan wasn't moved and she said "Then I guess I'll have to find her myself"
Feilan then walked away but Sora quickly tried to stop her.
Suddenly a lady came walking gently and confidently with her head held high. She was making her presence known and indeed the hint of arrogance in her eyes couldn't be hidden at all.
She walked like she owned the place.
She was just from a photoshoot. She walked towards Feilan and Sora and she first ignored Feilan and asked Sora "I thought you were supposed to be bringing me my celebratory drink"
Sora quickly bowed apologetically and subservantly said "I'm sorry Miss Shao...it was this good for nothing nobody that was keeping me here...she was forcing her way to meet you and I had to stop her since she wasn't qualified enough to even breathe the same air as you a superstar"
Feilan rolled her eyes at this show...this PA was the true definition of boot licker. Feilan ignored her and turned her cold gaze to Shao Linua.
After being praised, Linua looked at Feilan condensingly and said.
"My PA is right....you aren't allowed to speak to me but since I'm a magnanimous person...I'll give you ground to speak...
"You have one minute"
Feilan wasn't even bothered by this level of arrogance "Over the years...she had become accustomed to Linua's character"
Feilan then calmly said "I think it's best we speak in private considering the fact that what I want to speak about may harm your career Linua...we don't want that...now do we"
Linua's frowned lightly but she didn't retort cause indeed she was still a model and had to maintain an image so she couldn't have a show down with Feilan here...especially if it was about what she thought it was about.
There were people who would take the chance to ruin her. She couldn't risk it even though she could deny any claims so she turned around and headed for her changing room knowing Feilan would have to humbly follow.
In there she could truly bask in the glory of ruining Feilan without having to worry that someone would see her.
She felt smug knowing she had taken the most precious things to Feilan.
The dumb PA and the even dumber Linua didn't even consider why Feilan would be so considerate of Linua's career as to make their conversation personal.
Wouldn't it be best to make a show and drag Linua's name in the dirt. Models were easy to ruin so this privacy...what was it for.
Feilan smirked internally. These two had the lowest IQs in the world. They couldn't even see through her obvious plans 'Protect Linua's career....what a joke'
But Feilan also knew that Linua would never publicly admit to her wrongs so Feilan knew that inorder to squeeze out all the poisonous juice from Linua...they had to be alone.
"She'd give Linua the pleasure of gloating but she'd soon learn the hard way that her–Shao Feilan was not an enemy she could handle.
Feilan had already been through enough and she wasn't going to let the last precious thing in her life die without a fight....there was no need to restrain herself.
Linua had already taken everything from her. This was the last straw. She was now gonna teach Linua a lesson.
Previously she'd never do anything because she'd wanted to impress Suzen so much that she'd done everything for him but now he had betrayed her like this....with the very person she hated the most.
Suzen had always told her that he'd give the revenge that she wanted but they were all empty promises he made.
But she had been too blind to see. Truth was Feilan gave up on an even greater dream of hers just because Suzen had suggested that this was the only way she could get back at Linua.
Feilan clenched her hand. It still hurt how she had given up her dream of becoming a model so that Suzen would help her.
But now Feilan knew how stupid she had been for the man.
What kind of revenge would Suzen give her by eliminating her from being Linua's competition.
Feilan knew that she was even more capable than Linua. Way before she set up Feilan Fashion...she was a popular young uprising teen model but because Suzen told her to leave modelling...she did so because she thought he'd never lie to her and would fulfil all his promises.
But look now....he'd probably been lying to her from the very beginning and had secretly been helping Linua but the thing was he had lied to her so well that she had thought his love was real.
He'd always acted kind towards her though he was still indifferent at times especially when she refused to sleep with him.
How had she not noticed....Linua gave him what he wanted and naturally....she got what she wanted.
Feilan calmed her heart...she may have lost her chance to become a model and that was a forgotten dream but she wasn't going to lose Feilan Fashion which she had also grown fond of.
She had raised it like her only child..her only hope of indirectly sharing her modelling passion with the world.
She loved everything Fashion and this....Linua would never have the joy of snatching.
She'd fight her if that was what she had to do but Feilan knew she had to be capable enough to win this all out fight with Shao Linua.
She had the way but did she have the backing to stand firm and hold onto Feilan Fashion.
Linua had Suzen to ruin her with pleasure and ease....she had herself and a strange but seemingly powerful boyfriend.
Question was 'Who was more powerful'
Feilan hoped Lushan was as powerful as he looked..it would help alot.
But if only Feilan truly knew whom she had involved herself with.
