With this opportunity, Amelia would be able to really put Gianna in her place too.

Stealing Nygard Group’s people and then watching those talents they had looked down on actually win? Amelia was sure it was going to feel amazing.

Rocky’s dead–tired eyes suddenly lit up at Amelia’s words, like a pond breaking into ripples after a stone hits.

He clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles went pale, and his breathing got all shaky. “Seriously? You actually trust me, and you’ll let me design however I want?”

His voice shook with excitement, eyes wide with both disbelief and hope.

“Of course. That’s the whole reason I brought you in. And honestly, I can’t stand those Nygard brothers either. Let’s work together, beat them, and win side by side.”

“Alright, then! I’m in!”

Rocky made a silent promise to himself–this was his shot at a comeback, and he wasn’t going to blow it.

“Besides the model contest, you’ll also handle styling for our signed artists and the characters Tony creates for our projects.

“You’ll have tons of chances to show what you can do and push yourself further.

“And if you need anything, just say so.”

Amelia wanted to run things differently–she’d be the kind of boss who listened, not some control freak.

“Honestly, just having this chance already means the world to us, but … ” Tony hesitated a little.

“Our contracts are still with Nygard Group. We’d have to get those canceled before moving

over.”

“Don’t worry about that. If you’re fine with it, I’ll let Josie handle the whole termination process.”

For Amelia, ending contracts was no big deal.

“And what about penalties?”

“Doesn’t matter–I’ll cover it. You just focus on the work and let your skills shine.

“My rule is simple: If I trust you, I trust you all the way. But you’ve got to stay loyal.”

Amelia believed that if she was going all in on helping them grow, then loyalty and teamwork mattered most.

Everyone had to see each other as partners fighting on the same side.

Without that bond, a company was just a pile of sand, impossible to build anything on.

She didn’t care about having a big team–what mattered was quality.

“We’ll stick by you. At the very least, we believe in keeping our professional integrity.”

“Yeah. You pulled us out of a bad spot–we won’t let you down.”

“Selena, why so quiet? Got something on your mind?” Amelia asked.

It wasn’t jaw–dropping at first glance, but her features were refined, and her eyes carried a unique spark.

Hearing everyone else get their shot at chasing their dreams freely, she felt left behind.

Because she felt like she couldn’t–she was Gianna’s ghost singer.

Even now, though she didn’t have to lip–sync anymore, she couldn’t sing openly.

If she did, people would accuse her of copying Gianna.

The Nygard brothers would never let her rise on her own. They would do anything to shut her down.

If she succeeded, that would translate to Gianna failing.

They would never let that happen.

And Miguel, from what she knew, was also a ruthless lawyer.

He’d sue her into the ground just to protect Gianna.

“I know exactly what you’re worried about, Selena. And that’s the very reason I want to sign you. I can help you deal with all those problems.”

Amelia understood why she hesitated, but to her, these weren’t real obstacles at all.
