Chapter 137 - Sweet Sixteen (1) (1/2)
In a blink of an eye, six years passed quickly. Orita had gotten used to not having Wilmer around as often but when her children started to grow up and become busier, the lady of the house decided to return to America to the main Wilde mansion where she had a higher chance of at least bumping into her children while they were travelling for work.
Joyville was sad without Danny around and things just weren't the same anymore after that year. Elfie left the Special Class and the Special Class never did have another meeting like the one they did at the barbecue with the E.C. Class. The new replacements teachers for the Special Class were boring enough that even Alex decided to skip class. The three Wilde children spent their years self-studying in the library and graduated high school ahead of time. At the tender age of fourteen and fifteen, all three children had their diplomas and started focussing more on their chosen paths in life.
Now at sixteen, all three children were experiencing the peak of their success.

”Ms Wilde! Can you spare five minutes for an interview? Ms Wilde!” a bespectacled reporter asked and hurried after a beautiful blonde androgynous beauty. For Alex Wilde, this has become a common occurrence.
The successful teenage model and actress smiled at the crowd and waved at them as she got into the car waiting for her. Her manager was no other than Claire who glared at the reporters before getting into the car after the Wilde princess.
Six years passed by too quickly. For Alex who wanted to become an artist, it shocked everyone when she put down her paintbrushes to focus on studying for the national exams. Alex was twelve when she made the decision to accelerate her studies and graduate early. At the same time, she started asking Orita for more modelling and acting jobs. Orita did what she could and pulled many strings for Alex to get a strong head start in the showbiz. Thankfully, the girl matured quickly and was sensible. She ended up excelling two years into the industry and had her first big break as a child actress with a hit film as the main star.
Orita still remembered the day Alex came back with Claire from the casting auditions to tell her mother the great news. Alex had been taking on small roles as supporting characters for small films while going for acting classes to help better her skills for only six months. She only started her journey as a novice actress after a long year so the news was rather unexpected. The movie director wasn't someone Orita knew personally but he saw Alex's talent and wanted to give her a chance. The heiress was ecstatic about the news and everyone celebrated it the same way they celebrated her small commercial shoots. While nothing much has changed within the Wilde household, the world had started looking at Alex differently just like how the Wilde princess wanted. Modelling jobs came flooding through the mailbox and Alex had to enlist the help of someone capable to act as her manager. Claire volunteered for the role after Scarlet's continuous persuasion. The main reason why the head maid was recommended for the role of Alex's manager was because of the increasing amounts of harassment cases. With the fame that Alex earned from her achievements, there were many people who hated her success or envied her. These people often resorted to underhand methods to harm the girl so to give everyone a peace of mind, Claire volunteered to be Alex's manager and full-time bodyguard.
”What's next?” Alex asked and sighed once the car had driven far enough. It was only three in the afternoon but Alex was already exhausted. She was currently in Paris for a fashion week showcase. The Wilde princess had just ended her fitting session with the designer and tried on the outfits before the practice runs tomorrow. However, her day was far from over.
Claire looked at her phone and ticked off one more agenda from the list. Alex was tired and Claire was glad that she worked as a maid previously. With her years of experience, Claire was now adept at making some snacks and seeing to Alex's needs now that there weren't other servants around to help. She passed the model-actress a sandwich prepared that morning. Knowing that Alex was on a strict diet, she made something filling but low in calories.
”Eat this and then take a nap, I'll wake you up once we arrive at the next venue. You'll be having a talk show event next and then a gala later in the evening.”
