Chapter 65: The Doctor
After finalizing the endorsement agreement with Athena, Sasha and Bella left the Goddess Elixirs Cafe. However, before parting ways, Athena discreetly handed Bella a souvenir notebook with her autograph, a token of appreciation for being her devoted fan. Additionally, she extended an invitation for Bella to join her for lunch the following weekend.
That day, Bella felt like she won the lottery. Sasha’s treatment toward her shifted noticeably, although Bella remained unaware of the specifics of Sasha’s discussion with Athena. She got worried for nothing, thinking Sasha would deliberately offend Athena so that she wouldn’t accept their offer.
She was surprised to see the changes in Sasha’s mood which softened considerably, making her more friendly and approachable. However, Sasha remained unapologetic for what she had done to Bella. She didn’t apologize to her.
"Director, the Product Launch will be held two weeks from now. When are we going to gather the four endorsers for their photoshoot and rehearsal?" Bella opened up a conversation with Sasha. They were riding in the company car.
"We can start in the next three days. The other three celebrities are arriving tomorrow. Book three suites at Jones International Hotels and Resorts. They’ll have two days to rest before the shoot!" Sasha instructed Bella on the next steps.
"Got it, Director!" Bella replied with enthusiasm. Today, her spirits were high, buoyed by Athena’s encouragement. With determination, she vowed to perform her tasks flawlessly, ensuring the success of the upcoming product launch.
"Director, if you don’t mind, can I ask you a question?" Bella fidgeted with her fingers, awaiting Sasha’s response with a hint of nervousness.
"Sure," Sasha shortly responded.
"What is your impression of Miss Athena?" Bella asked her with anticipation. She wanted to hear Sasha’s opinion.
To her surprise, Sasha let out a soft giggle. "She seems nice. I believe we’ll get along just fine."
Two factors contributed to Sasha’s change of heart towards Athena. Firstly, she discovered that Athena posed no threat to her relationship with Dominique, as Athena appeared to be more interested in Ashton. Secondly, Athena shared Sasha’s disdain for Melody Williams – as the saying goes, "the enemy of my enemy is my friend."
Bella was elated when she heard Sasha’s response. She was glad that her director liked her idol, Athena. "Thank you, Director. I promise I will do my best to make our event a success!"
