Hollywood Zenith

Anastasiya discussed him with Mayra and Kayla like old pals. Although, Anastasiya was a stranger to them they knew Samuel wouldn't get close to her if he didn't trust her.

She was upfront and the story collaborated with what Helga told them. When she asked about Helga they told her, everyone was away choosing the evening gown for the party.

Only then, Anastasiya knew that he would be attending the party which made her form a plan in her head. She never told them her plan because she wanted to keep it a secret.

Later that day when she was playing with Elise, the sweetest girl she had ever met the Helga, Katarina, Roberta, Alana, Genevieve and Lucie came back.

They were already semi ready with proper haircut and a visit to spa to tone up their skin. Lucie was through with her preparation, she prepared the best stylist in the country even paying them many times over because of the time restraints.

They were a little surprised finding a strange girl in the house especially more so seeing her goth like appearance as she played with Elise.

Helga discreetly told them about her identity which only made them furious. By now they knew what Bratva did to Katarina amd Helga's life.

What followed was a heated conversation among the girls. Mayra and Kayla chose to defend Anastasiya while Helga and Katarina were supported by other girls.

So as to not let Elise witness the fighting, Lucie promptly took her away to another room to find Kayla's grandmother. She had to discuss the arrangements of the party's evening with her and told her about her plans. Since Elise couldn't come to the event Grandma would be tasked with looking after Elise.

When she returned, she was relieved to see the tension die down a little. Anastasiya told them about her safety measures which would lift up both russian girl's restrictions of going back to the country. She also promised their families wouldn't be harassed by anyone in their small town.

The tiny branch which was responsible for dealing in that town vanished overnight after Anastasiya informed her mother and grandmother about her problems. As she said, the women in her family were precious and special.

Soon, Samuel's name started coming up in their conversation again. After what Kayla and Mayra scolded them the other night, it was evident they were still struggling with the decision.

Anastasiya decided to stay out of their conversation. She never really understand their difficulties. She had travelled the world enough to see some people were not born to live a normal life. If they couldn't accept it, it was best for them to carry on with their life and forget him for good.

He might be unique but everyone knows time heals all wounds beside they barely got to know each other, it would be easier for them to move on. The fresh wound might be painful but there was something much bigger awaited them.

Like usual their talks went no where, in the end everyone decided it was best for them to focus on the fashion show than to dwell on these things.

Lucie was quick and set up some ground rules. She told them about what to expect which made them nervous. Only Mayra and Kayla chuckled because they had experienced such parties before, just not on this scale.

Lucie assured them that they would have some help that's when Kayla and Anastasiya interjected at the same time. They reassured them, if anything bad happens they would be there to support them.

Both had different intentions, Kayla thought she knew what lies in their heart and soon they would come to their senses and understand their inner feelings about Samuel while Anastasiya thought it would give them some perspective to look at things differently.

It was obvious to her these girls were naive and innocent especially Katarina and Helga. Since she promised to help them, she would open their eyes to new possibilities. It would be good for them in the long run to juat forget about him and focus more on their career. Read latest chapters on empire

After few years they would realise how foolish they were and would find someone noble to spend their life with. Since they only knew one man, it was hard for them to make a decision. She would help by doing some discreet digging to ensure they wouldn't suffer or get with the wrong people.

With that out of the way, they started preparing for the party in two days. There was a lot to do. Anastasiya thought it would be a great idea to tease Samuel. She was a natural redhead but she always died her hair to match her mood. Which was why this time, she thought about imitating Samuel's hair colour.

Mayra told her that it was his natural hair colour but she couldn't believe it. She only heard about such type of situations when she read online, most of it described as being some kind of Albinism.

That too was false since his skinf pigment was intact, it's just looked deathly pale. Normally it would have some shades of pink but his look permanent and like any healthy adult.

Nonetheless, she didn't care about it. She modelled herself as a snow white princess and asked other girls to follow the theme.

It worked, everyone looked like exotic princesses in their gaudy attire. The transformation was so severe that some of them who never really experimented with makeup felt like completely different person.

It was a huge boost to their egos, when people would constantly glaced at them among the sea of people. True to Lucie's words, they were seated in prominent seats alongside important fashion figures of this era.

Kayla and Mayra talked effortlessly as they introduced everyone. Their charm started rubbing on other girls as they also started talking with some models who were in their shoes.

Only then did they found out how much each one had to sacrifice just to be here, the most important event in fashion world!
