Chapter 659 (2/2)
It's hard to say whether it will be counterproductive to speak for the sake of her husband's work, which is too small for that young man.
Although she only had a very short time to get along with each other, although he was always very gentle in the process of getting along with each other, because of the woman's keen sixth sense, she could feel the indifference and alienation under the gentle appearance, even the indifference to the whole world.
Thinking of this, grace at the table couldn't help taking a deep breath.
The mysterious temperament of that little man, which is like a dark abyss, is not resisted by women. On the contrary, it is very easy for women to step in and be trapped in that world and never get out again.
Ray's voice suddenly rang out at the dining table. The child asked if the family could go to the cinema to watch Batman: the rise of the Dark Knight again tonight. Grace was interrupted and woke up. She thought that there was no other arrangement for the evening. She looked at her husband again and nodded her consent.
After breakfast, she takes her husband out first, and grace tells the nanny that she needs to buy some daily necessities. Then she drives her two children out of the apartment on Morton street.
It's eight twenty in the morning.
Drive 15 minutes to a private training center in midtown, where two children take three days of French lessons every week during summer vacation. This is to prepare the children for entering a better private high school in Manhattan. French has always been regarded as the language of upper class society. In Manhattan, French is a necessary foundation for them to enter some top private schools.
The campus students in Hollywood movies and TV works are always ”carefree”, love, drag racing, drug abuse, fighting, party, Carnival Wanton frivolity, squandering youth, this is indeed the life state of many American middle school students, however, are basically public schools.
Most of these people will enter the society in a ”carefree” way and become the bottom of American society. They are destined to be like ants all their lives, doing nothing, and often become the most direct victims of the economic downturn in the United States.
The United States is an elite country.
If you are not a born elite and want to enter that circle, you are doomed to give up the carefree. Even so, many times the climbing of generations is not necessarily accepted by a certain circle.
Grace still remembers two children going to kindergarten.
At that time, the couple wanted to send their children to a famous private kindergarten in the western district with a long history. Originally, they thought that they could do it with more money. As a result, their children had to be interviewed when they entered the kindergarten, and it was absolutely not a symbolic interview. Therefore, she even had to take her daughter Rita, who was only 3 years old at that time, to attend preschool training, and then watch her daughter be arrogant The interviewers in the garden conduct and manipulate like little animals.
As a result, he spent thousands of dollars on training and was still rejected after the interview.
Grace is not reconciled. A year later, her little son ray tried to sprint again, but still failed.
At that time, the couple also figured out whether they could get tickets by donating a sum of money to the kindergarten. They gritted their teeth and proposed a donation of $100000, but they were refused.Then understand that this is the threshold.
A barrier between the upper class and the ordinary elite in the United States.
Small Manhattan, just ten kilometers deep, is divided into Upper East, Upper West, middle and lower urban areas.
Grace later learned that the main reason their children were rejected was that they were not residents in the upper west side. This condition does not mean that you can only rent a house in the upper west side. You also have to have fixed real estate and corresponding social status.
Otherwise, families with rich wealth and certain prestige do not want their children to get along with some inexplicable children. So even if they write a check for $100000, which is absolutely insignificant, they will still be rejected.
Since then, both husband and wife have been holding a breath in their hearts.
However, as her husband's career has not improved for many years, it is impossible for her as a woman to make great achievements in the modeling industry. Some of her former grievances and ambitions are unconsciously fading away, and the rest are also pinned on her two children.
Take the two kids to the training center and explain. Grace drives to elite headquarters a few blocks away.
Although her application for promotion has not yet been approved, the number of personal assistants has increased to three during this period, helping her deal with a sudden increase in various affairs.
During this period, many models who have heard the news, whether they are elite internal or other company customers, also hope to be transferred to her name.
Grace was not greedy. She just picked and accepted five or six of them, but cut off more than half of the original 30 customers and gave up the girls who had little potential and were doomed to waste her energy. In the past, these customers could bring her some income. Now, if we continue to hold on to them, the energy and meager input will become very unequal.
In this process, there are some girls who beg for help and hope to stay with her, but grace is not soft hearted.
This is the way of the world.
After the adjustment, in addition to the three members of the Graaff family who have been quietly removed from her heart, grace still has 21 models in her hands, and the overall quality has improved a lot.
Among them, the baby face girl named Tracy Goff has been confirmed as the new Weimi angel, and the other two places are still uncertain. Grace also believes that the little man will not break his promise. After this period of careful selection, grace will pass another list to westero's assistant today.
At least one more quota can be confirmed this time.
Arriving at the company and about to start the day's work, John Casablanca's assistant called for her.
In the president's office, John Casablanca is on the phone from behind his desk. Another model, Karen Mulder, is sitting in the reception area.
Seeing grace enter, Karen Mulder stands up with obvious ingratitude.
Grace smiles, shakes hands with Karen Mulder, nods to Casablanca, and sits down on the sofa in the reception area, chatting with Karen Mulder in a casual, low voice.
Although not as good as Cindy Crawford and Linda evangelinsta, Karen Mulder is one of elite's supermodels since the 1980s. Unfortunately, from the beginning of the first Weimi show, the super model who used to have a strong momentum was ridiculed. Last year's second show was still like this.
Having missed the strong exposure platform of Weimi and the rapid rise of so many underachievers, Karen Mulder soon showed a tendency to die on the beach. The girl has lost three endorsements in the past two years. If there is no improvement this year, it is estimated that her last two niche brand endorsements will also leave her.
There will be no chance to turn over.
The reason for all this is now well known in the circle.
And it's simple and crude.
Simon westlow doesn't like thick lipped girls.
