Back at thepany, Madisyn summoned Maxine to her office.


    “What’s your take on this fashion show?” Madisyn inquired.


    Maxine nced at the fashion show details and looked up in surprise.


    “This is very high-profile, Miss Johns.


    Is this opportunity meant for me?”


    “Yes,” Madisyn confirmed.


    “They specifically sought me out to discuss a potential coboration with you.


    ”


    Maxine’s brow furrowed in confusion.


    “But I don’t think I’m that impressive.


    This fashion show…,” she trailed off, her gaze catching a familiar name.


    “Tatiana is also participating in this show.


    ”


    Madisyn tapped the table lightly, fixing Maxine with a steady gaze.


    “I’m aware that Tatiana will be there.


    ”


    Confusion flickered across Maxine’s face.


    The participation of both Tatiana and her meant the show would not be simple, as Tatiana would undoubtedly pull every string to clinch the spotlight.


    Maxine wondered why Madisyn was still interested in her opinion.


    “Maxine, you’ve often been outshone by Tatiana, yet your overall abilities surpass hers.


    Don’t you want to show everyone what you’re truly capable of?” Madisyn asked gently.


    A N G E L A ‘s L I B R A R Y


    She knew thepany’s artists well and believed Maxine could be the brightest star in thepany’s future.novelbin


    Maxine was momentarily taken aback.


    It had been Long since anyone had spoken to her with such confidence and encouragement.


    Her heart surged with renewed determination.


    She had always been overshadowed by Tatiana, whose sess seemedrgely due to her family’s influence rather than her own merit.


    Maxine’s desire to surpass Tatiana burned fiercely within her.


    However, as her excitement swelled, reality quickly tempered her enthusiasm.


    “Miss Johns, Tatiana and I are not the same,” Maxine sighed.


    “Her family’s influence is overwhelming, and I’m just an ordinary person.


    I have to face the reality of the situation.


    ”


    “Exactly, this is your chance,” Madisyn replied, her eyes sparkling with conviction.


    “The more they try to hold you back, the more you should rise above them.


    Use the obstacles they throw your way as stepping stones to your sess.


    ”


    Maxine gazed at Madisyn, her resolve reigniting at the sight of her unwavering confidence.


    Indeed, Madisyn was very charming.


    Maxine shivered slightly.


    “Okay.


    ” Her voice shook, yet it sounded incredibly decisive.


    Following Madisyn, she felt she had discovered her path.


    Even if she risked defeat, she was determined to give her all.


    Shortly after, Madisyn sent Maxine’s agent to sign the contract with the show’s organizer.


    Once that was handled, Madisyn came across a piece of news.


    The Norris family was bankrupt?


    Madisyn raised an eyebrow.


    She was familiar with the Norris family, a prominent family in Ansport, though considered to be of the lower tier among the elite.
