Wendy felt a bit self–conscious under Skye’s gaze. Her figure was voluptuous, with curves in all the


    right ces that looked sexy in real life, but she feared it mighte off as bulky on camera.


    She loved eating and feared losing this precious opportunity if she couldn’t slim down.


    Shirley nced thoughtfully at Wendy, then clenched her fists. This was her chance, and she couldn’t


    afford to miss it!


    Sophie, from the sidelines, caught this scene in her peripheral vision,


    “This aftemoon, you’ll head up to the second–floor studio for a promotional photoshoot,” Skye


    announced, then turned and left.


    “Wendy, you might want to skip lunch today with the photoshoot this afternoon.”

    “What’s to worry? They can just airbrush the photos, Wendy retorted, already starting to work out.


    Shirley said, “Wendy, you still need to eat, or you won’tst through the intensive training.”


    “Captain, are you just scared I’ll slim down and steal your thunder?” Wendy sneered. “After all, among


    all the trainees here, only a few stand out. And I’m rated just as highly as you in thepany.”


    Jean chimed in, “Yeah, if it weren’t for Mr. Devin worrying about nepotism, Wendy would probably be


    our captain


    “Exactly! Wendy has the background, the looks, the talent, and the figure. Logically, she should be the


    captain,” another voice added.


    Shirley responded coldly, “Are you challenging me? If so, feel free to take it up with Skye. If Wendy has


    what it takes, I’ll dly hand over the captaincy!


    The others realized Shirley was angry and fell silent.


    Wendy red back. “Of course, I have what it takes! If it weren’t for worrying about my dad’s


    reputation, I’d already have your position!”


    Then, Wendy stormed off.


    Sophie watched with a cool detachment.


    The rtionship between these three had seemed solid, but the moment interests shed, it fell apart.


    Such fake sisterhood.


    Wendy and Shirley’s cold warsted until the afternoon.


    For the photoshoot, there were only two makeup artists and two stylists avable due to thepany’s


    limited resources.


    “Can’t we each have our own makeup artist for the promotional shoot? How stingy can thepany


    be?”


    “Save it. We’re just trainees, not celebrities. Being assigned makeup artists and stylists for our first


    show is already a luxury. What more do you want?”


    There was clear dissatisfaction among them,


    As captain, Shirley was the first to have her makeup done, with the makeup artists and stylists


    scrambling to attend to everyone.


    Wendy, growing impatient, snapped, “Back off! Don’t touch my face!”


    The makeup artist, intimidated by Wendy’s outburst, didn’t move.


    Wendy made a call from a corner, and upon returning, she sat down arrogantly, watching Shirley being


    made up, and said, ‘Poor people can only afford such low–level makeup artists. I’m different. I have my


    personal makeup artist and stylist take care of me.”


    Shirley ignored her while Sophie, witnessing the makeup artists and stylists being hectically bossed


    around and insulted, took a seat at the makeup table and began doing her own makeup.
