35 Unbuttoning (1/2)

”You might not be aware of the show but it will give you a lot of exposure and also a lot of opportunities to actually get a couple of endorsements and a designer might actually take a liking to you and you'll get a chance to actually walk the runway” Julia explained.

”Interesting, but there might be an issue,” Marcel said to Julia.

”What is it?” Julia asked.

”Well, I have to go pick up my young brother for the weekends from the orphanage, so that might interfere with filming,” Marcel said.

”Don't worry about that, there's no filming during the weekend, the staff would also need to take a break and edit their footage” Julia explained.

”That's great,” Marcel said in relief. He did not want to jeopardise his career but he also did not want to disappoint Marcel.

”Well, we'll talk more tomorrow at your house and you'll be able to meet your assistant and driver then. If you can think of anything you are curious about you can ask me now, or tomorrow” Julia said.

”Ah, that reminds me. Is it alright to open a social media profile on my own? Or will that be handled by the agency?” Marcel asked.

”You can open your profile and then it can get verified by the agency. Just be careful about the things that you post on it. If you're too irresponsible you'll have to consult me with your posts before posting them. I'd rather you didn't give me more work” Julia said.

”Oh, that's alright then. If I can think of anything else then I'll ask you tomorrow” Marcel said as he stood up.

”You're going for filming?” Julia asked as she too stood up.

”Mmh, I'll see you tomorrow,” Marcel said with a smile and left the room.

Julia stood where she was with a smile. She felt like she was being compensated for managing an airhead before.

She was glad the boy seemed to have some sense in him, and it didn't look like he was someone who acted recklessly. It meant he would get into less trouble and she would have little mess to clean up in the future.

If he was stupid she would not have tolerated him after Damien recruited her from her old company, she was curious as to why he had wanted her as a manager, but it seems that he had decided to invest on Marcel, and he looked like a worthy investment.

Marcel made his way to the practise room that they practised in and saw that most of the people who would get involved in the filming were already there.

”Okay, now we just have to wait for Sherry to arrive,” Ben said to the director.

”Can you go and prep him?” the director said.
