She worked hard with her team to produce very good designs. She spent several nights at her company and Michael didn't bother since his company was the first in fashion companies and he was also working late.
Michael was engrossed in the stack of documents on his desk. His secretary barged in and asked for his signature on the names of the model who would represent the company in the upcoming event.
Michael glanced through with a grim expression and asked why Ava's name wasn't among. The secretary hurriedly apologized and included Ava's name. He didn't know the relationship between His boss and Ava but he could tell she held her a special place in his heart.

Ava was oblivious to all the trending topics as she was focused on sketching a design. Her assistant dashed in with her phone in her hands, her eyes sparkling with joy. She didn't know Anna was Married to Michael but she was aware Ava was Anna's younger sister and seeing Ava's post she rushed to share the good news with Anna.
Anna stared at Julia who's face was shinning and wondered what got her Soo happy. Seeing the confusion on Anna's face, Julia quickly shared the news.
"Ma'am your sister just landed a collaboration with MacDelvis Fashion and tomorrow is the signing. Isn't ur Sister amazing??"
Anna smiled at Julia's words. Even though she had a fall out with her sister, she still loves her and hearing her succeed made her happy.
"Yh she is," she replied to Julia's words before continuing with her sketch. She made a mental note to prepare sweets for her sister tomorrow. It was a tradition in their family, to eat sweets on such good occasions.
Back when they were young, their mother would make sweets for Ava when she got a good grade in school. Now that their mother is gone, she has to do it in her place. She promised her parents she would take Care of Ava.
Anna woke up early but she didn't rush of to work, she made her way to the kitchen. Michael didn't come home last night and she was quite happy. Seeing the happy smile on Anna's face, Miss Sarah's heart swelled with joy.

Anna spent hours in the kitchen, making lots of sweet, one would think it was a wedding day. She made it with Soo much love that when she finished, her heart was swelling with joy. She packaged the one for Ava and asked Miss Sarah to give the rest to the maids before she dashed out.
The atmosphere at MacDelvis Fashion was lively. Usually doing such signings, only the models show up but due to Ava's post which trended on the internet, several media outlets were present for gossips and more trendy topics. Fans of the various models were present, shouting the name of their idols.
There were also argument among fans about who the best model is?? The competition was between Ava Gray and Bliss Pink. Unlike Ava who entered the scene few years ago, Pink has been in the industry for several years, earning her a beautiful reputation as well as a solid fanbase.
She was the sweetheart of several netizens and she was on the front page of every beauty magazine. But ever since Ava showed up, Pink's fanbase and love dwindled somehow as people found themselves torn between the two, not knowing who to choose. Pink has been the model representing MacDelvis Fashion for years but for the first time, she found herself sharing the spotlight with Ava who was also chosen.
This made Pink hate Ava deeply and she promised to prove to everyone at MacDelvis Fashion that she was better than Ava. As models, beauty, body and dressing style was everything and Pink came prepared.
The luxurious ball room was abuzz with excitement as the who's who of fashion was gathered for the most anticipated signing day of the models at MacDelvis Fashion.
The room was transformed into a dazzling spectacle, with a sprawling red carpet, stretching from the entrance to the stage. The crimson hued carpet adorned with intricate gold patterns that served as a backdrop for the glamorous afternoon.
Paparazzi and photographers jostle for position, eager to capture the perfect shot of the stylish attendees and models.
The creme de la creme of the modelling world sashay down the red carpet, turning heads with their stunning looks and impeccable style.
Each model is dressed to impress, showcasing the latest designs from renowned fashion houses. The atmosphere was electric as they pose for photos, flash dazzling smiles and share laughs with their peers.
Now, everyone was looking forward to the two hot models, Ava and Bliss to make an appearance.
As the lights shone brightly on the red carpet, all eyes were on supermodel Bliss Pink. She arrived before Ava and her stunning appearance immediately commanded everyone's attention. Pink's raven haired beauty, porcelain skin and piercing emerald eyes sparkled like diamonds against the backdrop of flashing cameras.
She wore a breathtaking, custom made gown by renowned designer, Maison Margot. The dress was a masterpiece of silk and satin, intricate, hand beaded lace that shimmered like the stars on a clear night. The fitted, mermaid silhouette hugged Pink's curves in all the right places, accentuating her toned physique and showcasing her flawless, sun kissed skin.
As Pink struck a pose, the paparazzi rushed toward her like a swarm of bees, cameras clicking furiously as they vied for the perfect shot. Photographers shouted her name, begging for just one more smile, one more glance over her shoulder.
Pink lapped up the attention, basking in the admiration of the crowd as she worked the camera like a pro.
Her confidence was palpable, her mesmerizing. She was the epitome of glamour, the very definition of super model. The crowd was entranced, hanging on her every move, her every gesture.
But just as pink was about to take her final bow, a commotion at the entrance caught everyone's attention. The paparazzi's heads swiveled, their cameras at the ready as Pink's arch rival supermodel Ava Gray, made her grand entrance.
Ava was a vision of loveliness, her golden locks cascading down her back like a river of sunset hues. Her Sapphire eyes sparkled with a hint of mischief, and her flawless, alabaster skin glowed with a subtle radiant sheen. She wore a show - stopping, one of a kind, gown by the illustrious house of Azure. It's delicate, crystal- encrusted bodice shimmering like the night sky.
As Ava sashayed the red carpet, the crowd's attention was torn between the two supermodels. The paparazzi went into over drive, cameras flashing wildly as they struggled to capture the perfect shot of the two rivals. Pink's smile faltered for a moment, her confidence wavering as she realized she was no longer she was no longer the center of attention.
In the top floor of the building, Michael watched Ava with a smile on his face. To him, Ava was a goddess, pure and innocent unlike the ugly Anna he had at home.
The models were welcomed in a large office, where the heads of the fashion department attended to them.
Ava shot Pink a victorious smile, her once innocent eyes now filled with Malice making Bliss boil with anger. Just then Ava's assistant approached her and whispered something in her ears. Whatever was said made Ava flare up with anger.
After giving a stern warning to her assistant, she clenched her fist. Her action didn't go unnoticed by Pink who ordered Her assistant to find out what was going on. Minutes later, her assistant rushed back with a smile and reported to her. Bliss lips curled with a malicious smile and she made her way outside. Anna was feeling anxious and embarrassed, she had rushed here to give Ava the sweets she made only to be turned down by her assistant that Ava was busy and that she should leave. Anna refused to believe Ava would send her away like that so she chose to stay, waiting for a chance to see Ava herself. Just as she was lost in thoughts on how to get in, a very beautiful woman approached her making Anna embarrassed.
Standing beside a beautiful woman like Pink, she looked uglier and people were already casting disgusting glares her way. "U want to meet ur sister right?? I can help you" Pink informed and Anna smiled as she followed Bliss into the large office. Standing among very beautiful models with good figures, Anna stood out with her heavy make up and worn out dress with Boots. Laughter erupted in the room and whisperings echoed.
Who is she?? I've never seen someone Soo ugly.
Isn't she embarrassed, I wander what she's doing here.
Is she a mad woman??
In the entertainment industry where people fed on gossip, media men began taking pictures of Anna while people pointed fingers at her, riduculing her loudly. Anna's hand tightened around the flask she was holding and she lowered her head wishing she could disappear.
Pink had a satisfied smile on her face, this was exactly what she expected, now, what will be people's reaction if they find out, that this ugly duckling is the sister of their beloved goddess Ava Gray.
