Who would imagine having a relationship with a famous model and CEO big agency? Olivia, a make-up artist of SN Entertainment Group agency, who was treated like trash did not expect a meeting with Axel Hansel Johnson-the CEO of Kaistha Entertainment agency company and a famous photo model at the United States Fashion Week to lead to the next meeting. What's even more surprising is that Axel offered to become a contract lover! Olivia's life changed instantly as she felt like the luckiest person in the world. But that didn't last long. The deeper she sinks, the more Olivia faces Axel's dark secrets. How will Olivia survive after falling into a black hole?
Backstage of United States Fashion Week, 2021.
"Remember, this is a fashion event for top brands that is heavily scrutinized by the media. We can't afford to make mistakes. Don't tarnish the name of our make-up artist agency! Got it?"
"Understood, ma'am!"
After a brief briefing conducted by Mrs. Victoria, the head of SN Entertainment Group's make up artist agency, the few make up artists gathered dispersed. Among them, Olivia was seen carrying two make up suitcases with a grimace on her face.
"Olivia, get a move on! We don't have much time before the models arrive!" From two steps beside her, Jane, called out with a furious look on her face.
"Yes! You can't move slowly like that!" Then from beside Jane, Laisa, chimed in.
Olivia, who was struggling to carry two suitcases of makeup, just nodded. But in her heart, she was actually furious. How could she speed up her running when she had the weight of two heavy suitcases in both hands?!
'It's already fast, for heaven's sake! Can't you see I'm carrying your suitcases?!' Olivia thought to herself, cursing the two of them.
Olivia had been working in the cosmetology field for almost five years. Before being at SN Entertainment Group Agency, Olivia had worked at JM Entertainment Agency. Unfortunately, she was forced to leave for a cliché reason: because of the system of working overtime but not being treated well. In fact, her hard work often went unpaid.
"Olivia!"
"Yes, I'm coming right away!"
Did you think that Olivia's fate was different after moving to the SN Group agency? No, she didn't. As they say, out of the crocodile's cage but into the tiger's.
It's the same fate. Olivia was kept as some sort of perpetual trainee even though it was over a year and a half ago. She was only allowed to work with clients in their makeup room. Not the clients of models at events like this US Fashion Week.
Also, Olivia was not allowed to choose her own clients. As a result, it was often the case that Olivia, who should have been the main make-up artist, was still the assistant to the main make-up artist. For one year-oh, it will be two years soon.
It's so sickening.
Ting.
The elevator opened and Olivia hurried to catch up with her two seniors. Down the corridor that was crowded with staff, both the staff of the models who would later appear and the staff who organized the United States Fashion Week event.
As she walked, Olivia was nudged on the shoulder several times by the crowded corridor. This is a big event. It was not impossible that there were so many people taking care of the event.
"I apologize! Continue your work, you've worked hard!" That's what Olivia said every time her shoulder collided with staff or models who had arrived.
Finally, Olivia arrived at a very quiet room. It was vast and filled with tons of make-up artists from other agencies. Passing by carrying clothes, tidying up the makeup tables that were placed in straight and parallel rows, or discussing with fellow makeup artists about what the hairstyle or makeup would be.
Olivia was dumbfounded for a moment. Her steps gradually slowed down. Not realizing that her two seniors were already slowly away from her.
Olivia's eyes lit up as a smile of admiration spread across her face. Especially after seeing a number of models already filling a row of dressing tables on her left side. This was the first time Olivia had seen them.
"Oh my gosh. I used to see them on my phone, now I see them..." Olivia couldn't even finish her sentence because her throat was choked.
It's really hard to describe Olivia's amazement at seeing famous models in person.
Although she didn't memorize all of their names, Olivia knew four of them by heart. Their faces were often seen on social media, and Olivia admired their beauty. Like.
"Hey, do you want to keep standing in the middle of the street?"
Olivia gasped when a man's voice suddenly sounded from behind. Suddenly, she turned around with a look of shock.
In that instant, Olivia's whole body froze after seeing someone beside the man who reprimanded her. Olivia blinked repeatedly to realize that what she saw now was not a dream.
It was Axel Hansel Johnson, a famous photo model who is also the owner of the agency Kaistha Entertainment.
Axel Hansel Johnson was in front of her eyes!
"Hello? Miss?" The man next to Axel waved a hand briefly in front of Olivia's face
"OLIVIA!"
Olivia suddenly woke up after the shrill call came from behind her. There was Jane who had just arrived, running a little closer to Olivia. The look on her face showed annoyance.
"It's you! What are you doing here?" Jane asked Olivia in a sarcastic tone. Her eyes glared in warning. But the next second she smiled when she saw Axel, the photo model.
"Oh, please excuse my assistants, Mr. Axel Hansel and Mr. Jonathan-manager Mr. Axel."
Axel only gave a small smile before looking back at Olivia. Olivia secretly bit her inner lower lip because she felt so nervous. She bowed, making a Korean gesture of apology.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Jonathan," Olivia said to the man beside Axel.
While next to Axel, Jonathan nodded his head briefly. He laughed a little. In contrast to his voice that seemed to exude an intimidating aura, Jonathan's face actually looked so friendly.
"Ah, no problem. Everyone is nervous today, I'm sure your assistant feels the same way," replied Jonathan, Axel's personal manager.
Olivia just realized that Jane, her senior, had called her an assistant. Even though Olivia had also been able to assume the role of the main makeup artist!
"But still. She should be professional. Now, is Jungkook ready to be made up?" Jane asked with a curved smile that looked like a grin.
Jonathan nodded his head. Axel was the first to walk away from Jane, Olivia, and his own manager. He didn't look at all indifferent as he walked towards one of the dressing tables.
"Come," Jane invited Jonathan with a gesture of courtesy.
Jonathan followed after Axel. Before Jane caught up with the two men, she changed her expression to a flat, sharp look. Whispering something to Olivia
"I told you not to do anything that risks tarnishing the agency's good name!" hissed Jane, putting full emphasis on her sentence.
Olivia winced and was slightly taken aback. Her hands were clasped together and placed in front of her body. She lowered her head as she was reluctant to raise her face to look into Jane's eyes that were glaring at her.
Unnoticed by Jane, from a few meters away, Axel stopped stepping and turned his body backwards. He had noticed Jane pointing at the makeup assistant with an intimidating aura.
Axel frowned, tilting his head slightly. "Mr. Jonathan, is he going to do my makeup later?"
Jonathan was already standing next to him, following the direction of the gaze. Seeing Jane's figure walking over, Jonathan nodded.
"Yes, that's right. She is. You mean the woman who walked towards us, right?" asked Jonathan.
"No," Axel evaded. "The woman behind her."
A look of doubt crossed Jonathan's face. "You want her to do your makeup?"
Axel nodded confidently. Jonathan, who looked like he wanted to protest but decided against it, talked to Jane. During their conversation, Jane seemed unable to agree. But Jonathan brought up Axel's agency name
As a result, as soon as Olivia, who seemed to be struggling to carry two suitcases of makeup in her hands, arrived, Jane stopped her.
"Hey, Olivia. I'll leave Axel's make-up job to you."
Suddenly, Olivia was wide-eyed. "What?"
When Olivia's eyes turned to look at Axel, he gave her a lopsided, meaningful smile. It was small and brief. Before waltzing away just like before.
What is this dream?!
