Chapter 1462 Signing Up Julian smiled. âFeeling the heat?â Jessie nodded. She was really nervous. Coming here meant her life would take a new turn.
The path ahead would be laden with challenges.
He took her to the thirty-eighth floor and entered an office before he handed her over to one of the managers around. âBrief her about the contract.â
âOf course, Master Julian.â The manager smiled. She called him Master. Julian then turned to Jessie and said, âJust go through the process. You'll be getting everything an A-lister gets.â
âHuh?â Her eyes went wide with shock. | get what an A-lister gets too? But | donât even have any work produced yet. The pressure was mounting as she was worried that she might let him down.
âCome with me, Miss Silverstein,â the manager said.
Julian left soon after as Jessie followed the manager. She printed out the contract and gently told Jessie where to sign her name.
Aside from that, she said nothing more.
The signing took about ten minutes. Jessie took a rough look at the contract and was shocked to see the sign-on bonus being 1.4 million dollars. She felt her heart thumping furiously. How am | supposed to make that kind of money in a year? She wasnât doubting herself; she just didnât feel confident enough.
After signing the contract, Julianâs assistant served her snacks and coffee. She asked Jessie to wait around.
At the same time, Julian was on the top floor. He was sitting on a sofa with his legs crossed, his eyes on his brother.
His brother, Louie Gilmore, was about thirty years old and looked like Julian, albeit a lot more mature than he was.
âYou sure you want to help her out?â Louie asked, his voice deep and calm.
âI can make her famous.â Julian cocked his eyebrow slightly. He was confident in the matter.
âSure. | won't object to this.â Louie closed the document on his desk. Coolly, he said, âBut you know the rules. | donât need useless people on my team.â
Julian narrowed his eyes. âI know.â
âDo you like her?â Louie asked.
Julian stretched his arms as he responded, âI donât have to tell you everything, do |?â
âWell, I'm your brother.â A smile tugged on Louieâs lips.
Julian languidly picked his teacup up. âAnd thatâs the reason you tried to butt into my life since we were kids. Canât | have some privacy?â
âFine. | won't ask.â Louie stood up and straightened his collar out. âTime for a meeting.â
Julian looked at the time and thought, She should be done signing by now. He then went downstairs.
Jessie was sitting before the French window, staring at the view outside. She felt a lot calmer now. She spaced out as she was deep in thought and didnât notice Julian was already standing behind her. So, it gave her a shock when she finally noticed his presence.
He stared at her in amusement. Sheâs simply adorable. âDone with the signing?â
âYeah.â
âYou'll start working tomorrow. From now on, weâre going to create your persona and market you to the public. Be prepared.
Everyone's going to see your photos, and you're gonna make the news.â
Jessie nodded. âSince | have decided to debut, Iâve been prepared for this.â
âDonât worry. No matter what happens, I'll stand by you.â Julian sat before her. He looked at her like she was not a sculpted gemstone. All she needed was some work, and she would shine bright.
Suddenly, Jessie had the urge to relieve herself and stood up. âI need to use the bathroom.â
