Chapter 66 Divorced But Still a Stunning Pair
Thrown into the deep end without a chance to say no, Sylvia was hustled by Jessica into the makeup chair and wardrobe like a duck to water. Once in the outfit, Sylvia looked like it was made just for her Jessica was delighted, and everyone else was wowed.
“My word, you look incredible!” Juliet gaped, never having imagined Sylvia could look this stunning. Yet, something felt off knowing Sylvia’s partner for the shoot wasn’t some male heartthrob, but Cyril.
Hearing this, Jessica, who had just walked in with a puzzled look, asked, “Why wouldn’t it be suitable for Sylvia and Cyril to do the shoot together? Aren’t you a celeb too, Sylvia? Or are you choosy with your partners? You two look absolutely perfect together. Trust me, I’ve shot so many pairs, and I’ve never seen a duo as perfect as you two. Did you two know each other before?”
Sylvia had been swept up in the rush since her arrival, with no time to clarify anything with Jessica until now. Sylvia finally said, “It seems you never asked if I was here to find a solution for you or become the solution myself.”
Jessica appeared lost. To her, both options simply meant resolving the problem.
Sylvia explained, “I’m here from headquarters to find a solution, not to provide one by stepping in. And as for your comment, we’re divorced–have you ever heard of ex–spouses posing together for such a shoot?”
Not wanting to hide anything since her relationship history with Cyril was out there for anyone curious enough to look, Sylvia made it clear she wasn’t the solution Jessica was hoping for.
Jessica gasped, realizing he’d mixed up roles. She just thought Sylvia was the ideal fit for the theme, and after seeing many female celebs fail to measure up to Cyril’s look, none had satisfied
him–until Sylvia
walked in.
With Sylvia looking just right and eager to not let this chance slip by, Jessica playfully said, “If you’re here to resolve a problem, as long as it gets resolved, that’s all that matters, right? And what does it matter if you’re divorced? You both look perfect together–a divorced pair who are still completely stunning C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
together.”
Jessica, unaware of their history, just saw a match made in heaven and hoped they’d work together. To her, they were a photogenic pair that seemed a shame to have parted ways–forget the emotional stuff;
she was all about the visuals.
Sylvia and Juliet were at a loss for words, perplexed by Jessica’s bold attitude.
“Alright then, let’s get started. When we begin shooting, just relax and don’t think about your past. I’ll make y sure you look fabulous,” Jessica told Sylvia, whisking her away to the set to start a new round of photos.
Although she had other matters to address, Sylvia’s current task was to finish this magazine shoot. After years of marriage with hardly any closeness, it was ironic that a magazine shoot was what brought them together so intimately.
When Cyril found out he’d be pairing with Sylvia for the day’s shoot, he felt a rush of nervousness, unsure how to face her. It was crucial for him to be at his best around her. Yet, Sylvia appeared calm, unaffected
by their history.
During the shoot, Sylvia’s natural poise shone through, while Cyril repeatedly fumbled–after all, he was not a professional, just someone Jessica had roped in to help after doing him a favor in the past. He hadn’t expected to encounter Sylvia here.
In the end, Jessica was thrilled with the shoot, despite Cyril’s less–than–perfect performance. As an observer, he could see Cyril still held feelings for Sylvia, hinting at a potential reconciliation, despite the
divorce.
As insiders, Jessica and Luke were dumbfounded, having no clue how the situation unfolded into this scenario. After shooting for several hours, Jessica was more than satisfied, convinced the magazine was going to be a hit and break past the industry’s barriers.
“Goodness, I can’t believe how things turned out. You and Cyril end up as magazine shoot partners, and by the time I process it, you’re done! Cyril’s gaze on you was so strange,” Juliet remarked, still trying to make sense of it all.
