Chapter 1425
"I heard from my friend that you turned down a job from an important client," said Jaylene.
Michael nodded, "I assumed that with our long-standing relationship, he would understand. I didn’t expect him to be
so insistent this time. He even called to have me back right away."
Jaylene frowned. "So you're leaving?"
"I've taken your payment and accepted your job. It would be unprofessional of me to just up and leave. I have to
complete the job. However, my client has some influence in the industry. I'm afraid I might not get the chance to do
your makeup again if he gets angry, Ms. Saun."
"You just focus on your work. The entertainment industry is vast, and no one holds all the power. As long as you do
a good job, I'll discuss with my brother about entrusting you to style every artist in Elegant Media," Jaylene assured.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis was exactly what Michael was waiting to hear. He smiled and said, "Let's talk about that in the future. Making
you look stunning tomorrow night is my top priority right now."
Jaylene smiled, "I appreciate the effort, Mr. Caleb."
Meanwhile, Stella and the gang waited for Michael to show up, but he never did. Vermont then realized that the guy
had stood him up.
"Damn it! It seems like that mutt has forgotten his roots! If I had known better, I wouldn't have given him a second
chance," Vermont cursed.
Felicity was equally disgruntled. "Jaylene must have hired him on purpose! With her looks, I bet she'd still end up
looking like a mess even if a goddess did her makeup."
"Can't we just find someone else?" Stella asked after some thought, confident in her own appearance.
"No!" The other three responded in unison.
Vermont then explained, "It's not that simple. Do you know what it means to hire a celebrity makeup artist? It's not
just about their makeup skill. For events like this, the makeup artist is also expected to attend. The more reputable
the makeup artist, the greater your status. If otherwise, Keegan wouldn’t have asked me to book a slot with
Michael."
On the other hand, Felicity said, "The Sauns are hosting a banquet to announce YOUR return, not Jaylene’s. You
can’t let her win!"
The problem now was that they did not know where to find another celebrity makeup artist this soon. All of them
had packed schedules. Sometimes, makeup artists accompany stars to international fashion events, which can take
up to half a month. They're nearly impossible to reach without an advanced booking.
Vermont had no other option but to contact his friends one by one, asking if any makeup artist had an opening.
The party had not even started, yet a series of problems had already arisen. Stella was now beginning to ponder

After making many calls, Vermont still could not find an available celebrity makeup artist. Keegan took a moment to
reflect on the situation and dialed Leighton's number.
Leighton was still on set, filming his scenes with Nicole.
While they were having their break, Estelle handed him the phone, saying it was a call from Keegan.
"Hello?" Leighton answered.
Keegan got straight to the point, "Do you know any skilled stylists?"
Leighton furrowed his brows, "The banquet is tomorrow, and you're only looking for a stylist now?"
Following that, Keegan concisely explained the situation.
When Leighton heard that Jaylene had intercepted their plans, he could not help but say, "That woman must've
done it on purpose!"
However, Keegan was not focused on whether it was intentional or not. What he wanted was to find a good makeup
artist.
"Can you find us a new stylist or not?"
Leighton thought about it but could not come up with a name immediately.
