Chapter 1: Left with a broken heart. || 2
"Excuse me!?" I immediately rose from my seat, what bullshit were these stupid moderators saying in this dumb meeting!?
"We're sorry, Ms.Andrea. we don't need you anymore." A director said calmly in his seat on the long table. "Are you dumb? don't you know who am I?! let me tell you, my father and fiancée won't let you o-" It was the first time i try to use threats..but before i could even continue... "Shut up!" the old CEO of the company finally spoke, he was a man in his late 40s. and he hated me to the core. but he couldn't do anything about it since my father was a more powerful businessman than him.
My father,along with Cameron could've so easily wiped this company out of existence. therefore, nobody ever dared to go against me.
But,,
Now?
After I was blacklisted by my own.. Fiancé..?
The CEO of the company saw absolutely no reason to be polite to me at all, especially after i was still talking with an attitude. he cleared his throat and started to talk, with a very angered voice. "Listen,Andrea! Not even your father can help you. You were blacklisted by G.L.D.N company! Who do you think you are to oppose that!?"
Upon hearing that, I stood there motionless. with a broken yet terrified expression. My eyes widened in disbelief,
I want to cry.
I chewed on my lips and suck it up deal with to save my dignity. 'G.L.D.N' company..was no ordinary company.
It was Cameron's company.
The company of the man i loved and adored.
Looking at me, the CEO tapped his finger on the table and continued to speak. rubbing more salt to the wound. "Who told you to harm Ms.Rosie!? Everyone in this whole world knows how much she interests Mr.Cameron! Even people who are not involved in the business world, Yet you had the bravery to provoke her." He said.
Everyone's eyes were on me,
Everyone saw how pathetic I was.
Although they know that I AM his arranged Fiancée, Nobody Cared.
Why?..
"Ms.Andrea,I apologize but also nobody is willing to take you in their Agency, Either. you have offended one of the most well known men in this business era. They do not want their companies to go bankrupt was their reasoning.." A photographer said, he was being as respectful as possible,
He was one of my fans as a model. Not only that,
He was also my personal photographer. And one of the few people who knows how much my Career meant to me.
I sacrificed EVERYTHING for him..
I never used my father's influence nor my title as Cameron's Fiancée to get to the top and worked with blood,sweat and tears...i fought for it. For more than 6 long years. Alone. I never allowed my father to interfere with my Career. All i asked my family for was support. I knew how much people feared to offend me because of my backings,
So only this time I tried to threat them.
But it was useless.
"Yes. Not to mention your horrible attitude,if other company don't want you for being blacklisted,they would never want you for your stupid personality. That's why Mr.Cameron chose Ms.Rosie over you."
"Yeah."
"Totally!"
"Andrea you're horrible."
"You mean nothing to him."
So many people in the room,too many people commenting..Most laughing at me and some feeling sympathy for me.
I snatched her bag with a heavy heart and a cold face. My heels clacked loudly with each passing step i took to get out of the room while holding back my tears. Employees kept snickering and laughing at me as they saw me leaving.
"God, finally!"
"We have to celebrate!"
"Haha,who did she think she is!?"
"Isn't she a mistress's daughter?"
"How stupid. We all know that Mr.cameron only loves Ms.Rosie!"
"Third wheel in everything,Even the family!"
More and more hurtful worlds going through my skin like blades.
Ding! The door of the elevator opened and I Calmly walked in. I looked at the Employees and workers through the elevator door as it was closing. On the last bit..A tear escaped my eye.
"But.." I murmured to myself,Only that tear managed to escape. my eyes were already dry for I've cried yesterday all night thinking of Cameron. I had no energy left to cry nor to fight back, especially after that meeting. "I..never chose this." I whispered and then sealed my lips.
I had always been looked down on because of my father divorcing his previous wife to get with my mother. I was only a few months old at the time and understood nothing. Just a little baby. growing up, i watched the way my father treated his ex-wife and how my mother often fought with her when they met coincidentally anywhere. and how the ex-wife called me names.
I hated her.
But I never thought of ruining her.
I always had that feeling that something was amiss from me. Ignoring my family affairs and whatsoever, i immersed myself in studying by the time I set foot in primary school. To avoid the fights and the drama that I always had to listen to between my parents as my father's family never accepted me nor my mother due to viewing my mother as a cheap woman and I.. was an illegitimate child..which was true, as my mother seduced my father while working as an assistant for him many years ago. my mother always wanted a luxury life.
When i got into the Lian family,which is her father's family..my mother showered herself with money and never gave attention to me. My mother didn't hate me, but she didn't really care about my life either. My father, on the other hand, was the same too. I was his only child and he never had any children from his previous wife, since he couldn't really take care of me he always agreed to whatever i wanted...
Therefore, i never knew what motherly love is. Or what a warm family means. i never had anyone to talk to, No one to scream to or complain to, I was a loner all my life. i had a nanny who tried her best to look after me and she was the only person i loved dearly. Ironically, I grew up to be an independent woman. I self studied everything till i graduated from highschool with a very high mark 2 years earlier for being a very brilliant student at the age of 16.
I always had the dream of becoming a model,a public figure, someone beautiful. Whenever I followed my mother to the malls shopping, i'd look at the big lighten up banners revealing those beautiful women. And seeing how many people loved those models, wether women or men..i was determined to become one.
I often looked at myself in the mirror from a young age and pose. 'I have the qualifications to be a model! I have to work hard for it!' Is what i had always told herself as a middle schooler. I always kept a low profile, till i graduated immediately jumping into one of the most high and expensive University of the Arts in America. I left for 2 years leading a financially comfortable life with my father's monthly transference of money to my bank account in USA..
Though,I wasn't completely alone in those 2 years,I had my servants because my mother's condition to study my career was living in a villa with servants to help me so that I wouldn't do too much work..Rather, wouldn't do 'The servants work'..i took many courses regarding the entertainment. Singing, dancing, acting as well. but i focused mainly on my modeling career. My mother,' Ann' often called me to check on me monthly. but it was always a dry conversation. While My nanny was left behind back in the Lian mansion for service purposes.
With my busy schedule and a mess for a life I never had time to have friends, reading and listening to music were my only friends in life, my company. not that i cared about people but i was needy for love at some point. I was a hopeless romantic. Romance Novels, Love songs..I dreamt of it. I wanted it. I often felt envious when I dealt with her classmates whom had a life partner.
But I kept it in my heart. Apart from my busy schedule, The jealousy and envy i held for most people who had friends, a loving family or a partner made it more hard for me to socialize with anyone. I knew i'd never be happy with anyone who had any of these. so I always kept my communication with my classmates only regarding school matters, i'd help people and they'd help me back with some notes on university groups and such. that's all.
I went back to my country when I turned 18, I auditioned as a model in 'Trés entertainment company.' one of the well known companies but not the best. I started as a small model and of course had I social media account as a public figure in order to get my fame. i'd posts of my process during photoshoots, my skin routine and such. People loved me a lot on social media along with my co-workers as I had treated them with respect. i kept growing and growing with my own hard work completely ignoring my father's business. in a long depressing year, I became one of the highest paid models. An A-list model. along with the habit of singing at times and playing some instruments such as piano and acoustic guitar.
I was happy.
I was successful.
A young successful happy adult.
I was proud of myself! I knew it was worth it after all..
But it crashed down..
That day.
The damned day i decided to open my heart for someone.
