Chapter 55

• Kayla’s [POV]
• "Welcome, Miss Brandt. They're waiting for you in hair and make-up whenever you're ready. We'll save fitting you into your wardrobe for last. I’m Margie, and I'll be your personal assistant."
• The young intern was fresh-faced and perky with her brown hair pulled back in a ponytail and wearing a cheap suit comprised of black polyester. At first, I had been nervous about coming to the studio that morning. Was it really a good idea to go through with the modeling job and risk seeing Ethan again? Did I even still have a job? But seeing how empty my checking account had become and knowing that rent was right around the corner prompted me to go through with it. Not to mention, Mick's gentle urgings.
