Chapter 569 Meanwhile in LA-1

" Are you seriously asking me that question? Of course we have to aim for the best in the business!" Rosaline said with conviction.

" Isn't it just modelling? What even are you guys planning to do?" Paige asked because she still didn't understand what they were actually aiming for.

" Been there done that, being a model is good but to get to the top you have to sacrifice a lot. I am a prime example of how rotten this industry is." Liliana replied solemnly.

" Let's not talk about that,. It's been a long time since we gathered together it would only sour everyone's mood." Maia added. Most of them were already aware about her past.

" This cake is delicious! I didn't know we had good food in our cafeteria!" Sybilla the glutton was in her own world enjoying the snacks.

" That's because it's expensive. It's the only place where I can spend some money around here." Paige said grumblingly. They had to stay around the campus because of increasing amount of mandatory classes.

" Right, getting back to the point. There is a reason why we are gathered here right?" Rosaline added. She felt like a leader trying to keep everyone's attention on the main topic.

" Yes, you said you two are creating some sort of media company? It's great the you guys are doing something on your own." Maia was surprisingly supportive. She started young and now manage a small portion of her family's assets.

It was the same for Paige, with the Hedrick's hotel empire she wanted to do something that best suited her which was why she was actively involved in the supercar club trying to make it into a top club in the country.

" Thank you for the encouraging words. We already have a rough plan, first to make Liliana more famous then starting either a clothing brand or a cosmetic line that will be completely online because I feel that's where the market will be in few years. Sami also agreed to my idea but the problem is the initial push. I wanted to get some ideas from you guys."

" I still think modelling is the best course of action. Even you Rosaline could do it because you have a natural beauty that would go great with Liliana's cute persona?"

" Cute? that's not how I would describe her." Paige said rhetorically.

" I disagree, I think everyone is cute. It's one of the reason why he is so smitten with you guys." Sybilla added while eating her food.

" Why are you bringing that womanizing bastard in this conversation!" Maia fought back but she felt a little happy hearing her praise.

" You don't need to get so worked up about it. I was only stating the obvious!"

" Forget it. I am not doing that shit again." Liliana refused the modelling route.

" Oh, I know! What about an online persona? An alter ego type of thing. You know his video service is getting a lot of traction in recent years. You guys could do something in there? Record some videos and post them online." Paige gave a great idea.

" That could work. You can also strong arm him to promote your channel if now we can directly storm the headquarters and blackmail their CEO. When they see what we have on him, they would surely push your channel to the top!" Maia grinned which made her look evil!

" Isn't that basically taking advantage of him? He already invested substantial amount of money establishing the company, I don't want to get any help from him." Rosaline didn't like the idea of exploiting Samuel.

" Advantage? While we are slaving away with our college's final weeks here, he is out there enjoying himself in the arm of those two other bitches! Just think about what that bastard did to your older sister! We still haven't gotten back at him!" Paige opted for violence.

" I don't think it's his fault." Suddenly a voice of reason entered the conversation. It was Sybilla who was already aware of everything when she met Samuel last time before he left LA.

Everyone looked at her, she didn't falter under their menacing gaze and continued," It's not my place to judge how anyone live their life but he has been nothing but honest with each and everyone of you. What happened with her sister was unfortunate but did you even talked to her about it? No, but I did only because he asked me to look after her."

" I stopped by the hospital where she worked a couple of times and she opened up about it. Do you know she feels more guilty not what because of Sami but because she feels that she let everyone else down! If you guys didn't push him away and made him leave LA suddenly, she would be in a much better place right now! At least they could have talked it out in private!"

" Unlike you guys, I find Iblis and Adele much more appealing because they already know what they are getting into and doesn't pile on him because of their own choices. It's your life, if you so dislike him then feel free to not speak to him but don't ever disrespect my friends in front of me!" Sybilla was especially passionate with her speech.

She was angry because she saw people being hurt because of their puny prides. No one forced them to be with him and the one encounter they had was under heavy intoxication. It was hard to realize if anyone even remember what happened that night!

Everyone looked at her with pure shock on her face, not knowing what to say in response. Even Paige who was brash with her mouth didn't know how to reply to her accusations.

" Just stop thinking about it and get back on the main topic. I have a suggestion, start both the cosmetic and the clothing brand first. Start wearing them whenever you are on camera, it would be great if you could send out few samples to other known creators asking them to feature it on their channel. You don't sit around waiting for fame to come first before making your move." Sybilla changed the topic not to make the atmosphere anymore awkward than it already was.

" She is right, you would already have a established channel. It's a bit of gamble but since you have enough funding, it a calculated risk." Maia added. She was relishing in the fact that someone stood up to Paige.

They started talking about fine details and Sybilla went back to enjoying her meal. She was happy inside and thought." Sami, I have done you a great deal of favour! Once I report back to him, he would have to reward me handsomely for taking his side on this!"

None of them ever suspected that, Sybilla was the imposter all along!n-)o.)V-.e--l-)b(-I()n
