147 As Long As It Is Her Faul

People started gossiping, there's a new employee that was brought in.

What's more, it was the president who was walking her around, touring her to the whole building.

"This here is the technical operation center, this is where you monitor what was being thrown on air. Around here is where the IT department is, they were the ones responsible for troubleshooting on computers and TV's and laptops during events."

It was early that morning when Timothy led Alissa to the company.

Lie Broadcasting Company.

"Who was that?" one, who was inside the TOC, asked after they left.

"She seemed familiar, could she be his lover?" another answered.

"I don't think so, they look too professional," the other replied.

"She looks beautiful though," one man said.

To which the others rolled their eyes on.

"You are always like that Josh, only looking at their faces. She looks so delicate, could she be a secretary?" the first to speak said.

Just then Timothy and Alissa returned, "This is Alissa Coleman, she will be an additional to the video system team. You can just go ahead and introduce yourselves to her."

After saying this, Timothy turned around and walking towards the elevator pressing its button.

He glanced back at them and everyone was already all over her.

"Hey, are you sure? Video system? Do you know how difficult their job is?" one asked her.

"Why don't you just join me in the audio team? I can help you even more," the one named Josh said as his arm came close to her shoulder.

"I thank you for the invitation but I'd rather not put too much on my plate that is currently full already," Alissa said with a smile as she stepped on the side evading his arm.

~"Watch over her. I know this is her probationary period but since you are there, you have to watch over her."~

Before they left, Amber insisted.

'Do I look like a baby sitter? Why is everyone telling me to watch over someone?'

He saw how Alissa stayed at arms distance to those who tried to get inappropriately close to her.

Her current outfit was a lose t shirt and camouflage baggy pants hiding completely her body shape. This outfit didn't show much of her model body.

He nodded in approval to this before riding the elevator. It was a good thing that their company does not focus on uniforms or formal attires.

"AMBER!!!!"

"Woah," Amber had to keep her balance when Hayley suddenly jumped on her.

"Long time no see too," she then said while laughing.

"You… You meet up with Alissa yesterday but you actually didn't contact us," she complained as Elloise nodded with a warm smile to Amber.

Amber smiled back at her.

"You were busy yesterday, how can I interrupt that?" Amber answered back.

"You know?!?" Hayley asked her in shock.

Hayley's face turned red upon hearing this.

"See that, see that," Amber instantly teased her because of this pointing at he face.

"You turned completely red just by me mentioning that you look happy with your plan yesterday. I feel hurt," Amber said.

Hayley pouted, "Amber!! Stop teasing me."

"Enough with that now Hayley, here let me see you closely," Elloise finally butted in and pulled Amber to her.

"Look at this mask, it completely hid your face. Was the scar that hideous? Though I've seen the news, I didn't expect that it would be that much when you told us the story," Elloise added as she look at Amber worriedly.

They knew of her real identity but Amber felt like it would be better to hide it to most people even those close to her.

Their reactions are her best camouflage, it will make it even more believable.

"Don't worry, I feel much more at ease with this mask on," Amber replied happily.

"On the other hand, you look younger now. Are there admirers roaming around now?" she teased.

"Oh please, don't get me started with that. I want to stay focus on the hotel and I am very much happy with my current status," Elloise rolled her eyes and replied.

"Hey I am still here, you guys let me in on the conversation as well," Hayley commented.

Amber and Elloise laughed as the three of them walked towards Jake France's office.

Of course people were looking at Amber but compared to SNN most of those in here already knew of her identity as Ashton Wright's fiancé.

So what they're talking about was her mask and how she ended up with Ashton Wright, one of the most prominent bachelors in Celestial Country.

"You really are famous no matter where you go, aren't you?" Hayley commented upon hearing a few gossips.

"When you get used to it, you just find it normal already. Don't bother with them, two to three days from-"

"Wait a minute," Hayley suddenly interrupted her when a call came.

"Hey," her face lit up as she signalled for Amber that she will just speak to the phone, going on her very own office.

Amber blinked a few times before she exasperatedly shook her head.

"Sorry about that girl, she really…" Elloise could only sigh.

They haven't seen Amber in a while and her daughter actually chose the other more than her.

"It's fine, we are in the same company. I can always meet her," Amber replied with a smile looking back at the door where Hayley entered.

"Have you met him already?" she couldn't help but ask Elloise.

"Who? Mark? I have," she replied.

"What do you think of him?" Amber asked once again.

Elloise looked at her in an inquiring manner.

"Please don't think of it in a bad way, I too am just curious. With this long distance friendship there are things that we really couldn't talk about. So I am very much curious of who tamed her," Amber explained.

"Well, I couldn't truly say that I know his character for that was a one time only but since Hayley looks so happy I suppose it is fine," Elloise answered truthfully.

Just as they stepped in Jake's office Amber seriously turned to Elloise.

"There's another reason for my arrival here," Amber didn't want to hide it.

Elloise can see the uneasiness in Amber's eyes.

"Go on, whatever you're going to say. I'll think about it once I heard everything," Elloise urged her to go on.

"As long as she is happy, that is more than enough. But as the boss of the company, please understand that if the company would get affected then I will have to take action," Amber honestly said.

"Is there something wrong? I am not too good with fashion designing so whatever you all notice I don't think I would be able to," she commented as she glanced at Jake who remained silent.

"Don't worry, it's not that big, we also think that it might be her transition. There are those times for different people as well," Amber assured her.

"Then I will leave her to you, if you think that she would end up becoming the cause of Capa's problem, then do what you have to do," Elloise answered back.

"Thank you," Amber sincerely said.

"No, thank you. You didn't have to take our feelings into consideration for in the first place you really are the boss, yet here you are taking my feelings into consideration asking my permission," Elloise shook her head with a smile.

Just then she received a call.

"I shall take this now, the hotel is prospering quite fine. I get quite a lot of calls regarding the managing so I am also planning on returning to Star country so whatever it is, even if that means that my daughter will get mad or hurt. As long as it is her fault."

She seriously looked straight in Amber's eyes, "Get her straight. I will leave her to you and don't hold back. This company is for your parents, for your family, do what you have to do."

"Thank you so much," Amber replied with red eyes.

"So Amber, be strong. No matter who you will face, no matter how you cared for them, as long as they were the ones in the wrong, don't hold back."

After that she left to answer the call.

Elloise was aware of the fact that it was Amber who really saved their family. They should be the ones feeling indebted with her and not the other way around.

But since she opened it up, Elloise knew that what may be happening to Hayley was something that could be problematic to the company.

The company Amber created for her real family.

That is why she said those things, they have no right to pull her down when she was doing her best to keep them up.

She also noticed that Jake France have spoken to her regarding Hayley's change, but it was only in passing that Elloise didn't thought much of it.

Now that it was Amber who spoke, she knew she needed to see for herself what this is that's happening.
